Well, yes, from a very young age, you can understand and know that I had a talent for some things, like martial arts, like being a very friendly and sensitive being, but there was always something that stood out in me, and it was the love for drawing. For those who have read a little of my presentation post, I will tell you what I love to draw, today of course I do it better than when I was younger, today I can say that I like what I do, of course you can always improve.
One of the things that cost me the most in this passion for drawing was the cost of making a copy, since colors were an important part of my creations, many will say... "Well, they are not that expensive", I tell you that for those who You also don't know, part of my childhood and adolescence, I lived in Venezuela, it is no secret to anyone that this country is going through a very bad economic situation, and the money that came into our home went only for priority expenses such as food and services , and only worked for it.
When I reach the age to work, I remember that my first job was in Chinese stores, which are actually supplies owned by Japanese, Chinese nationals. For the most part, Venezuela is invaded by them ha, ha, ha, in short, I remember that when my mother decided to migrate to offer us a better livelihood and new opportunities, in my thoughts the only idea was that she was alone with me. sister and I had to look after her, certainly my mother watched over and took care of us from a distance, so I did not sit idly by and decided to work, I had never done it, but I was old enough to be able to, so I tell you that It was what I bought for the first time with my first salary, well, you must imagine... I remember that the first month of work was hard and adapting to a rather demanding work policy, but when the pay day came I felt satisfied and that what I was doing was worth it, and I only thought that I would spend the money, and yes, i spent most of my salary on drawing materials, colors, rulers, crayons, sheets.
Drawing became a way to drain my emotions and express them, most of my drawings mean something to me, and having these materials was very important to me, ❤️ it was a very satisfying experience, being able to buy what I really wanted on my own, It was the first time I felt that I could little by little build what I want and besides that it wasn't difficult and today it is, I always keep that theory. To this day, I kept colors that have been with me for a long time, because even when they are very worn, I don't throw them away, I keep them as a souvenir, because they are responsible for generating happiness, and they represent the work that I love, drawing.
Well, of course, I also consented to my sister at that time and gave her part of my salary, because what our mother sent us from Peru, everything went to spending on food, which at that time was more expensive and difficult to obtain. I am grateful that these situations did not make us more capable and we were able to go through this bad situation, today we are fighting and raising money for her to come to Brazil, since she is still in Venezuela, so soon that will be another dream come true.
I hope you like my story, the truth is too important to me, so much so that today I have almost all the colors I need, and a few days ago I saw a box of many shades that I hope to soon share with you the joy of buying it.
