If you are looking for an Artist, that’s definitely not me. I am the one you should ignore. I don’t remember drawing anything worthwhile. Oh! I sketched a Mango and a Bird at school, and guess what? I scored a maximum. The career of a successful artist never exactly ever gained any further velocity.

I will not lie. Like others, I also happened to buy watercolors, paper, and brushes. I was enthusiastic and clueless for sure that I can vouch for it. I didn’t even hit the restaurant despite my father asking again and again. I didn’t even let him parcel my favorite Pizza. I raced home, and you know the rest. Despite how horrible my pictures turned out, I was ecstatic. You won’t believe how passionate I am. I dared to sketch many more. I know you are fascinated to witness them. Believe me; I am doing you a favor by keeping your desire thirsty.

I never turned to any art school. I just abandoned that idea not because I was afraid to fail. Little me little desires with many more to uncover. I fantasized about being a cricketer, footballer, actor, and musician. Finally, here I am. People like me end up being Engineers. By the way, my Asian parents didn’t like this idea either. Seriously a doctor? I am a very calm person unless I am disturbed. Being a doctor is even too harrowing to fathom for an angry person like me. Whatever big me, big dreams, nothing more to explore. CSE it was.

I didn’t know a writer was living rent-free inside me. Thanks to @ash2-0 & @zaku vai, here I am. Without the encouragement of @bdvoter and @zaku vai, I would have vanished entirely from this Hive community. This is not only about his upvotes. I know how much I have grown and learned in this process. I have always loved to learn and discover. Writing here pushed me to pursue that.

One day I was scanning community feeds. Guess what I found @sakura21. She is an incredible Digital Illustrator. One day I conveyed my dying urge to her. She was such a sweetheart. I don’t even know her. She provided me with some tips. Finally, it was time to disturb the lazy engineer within me. Engineers are pretty adept at finding things. I began to dig. Then I noticed my younger sister @tahminasyed posting digital illustrations. The spark that perished began to be reborn. I started to create visuals and GIFs for my blogs.

Yesterday I was drafting an article titled 𝗠𝗔𝗚𝗜𝗖𝗜𝗔𝗡 𝗘𝗣⊘𝟚 : 千ιηαℓ 𝙰¢† !?. I was searching the internet, but no image was satisfying my gaze. Found one but in iStock. I know how to use it free with permission. Nevertheless, I was on second thoughts about that image. Guess what? I designed my own. It’s not spectacular, but the artist within me who happened to be awful got elevated again. I spoke to @tahminasyed, and she encouraged me in every way possible—things she has been doing for me from the very beginning of my Hive adventure.
