Painters evolve from scribblers. A child learns to draw by scribbling on a simple white paper with crayons. Until the crayons break the child continues to draw and from there emerges a painter. When children are exposed to different art forms at an early age they have the time to understand where lies their interest and they can develop and hone their skills in that particular field.

Never box up your talents, show it to the outer world.

Try to grow with criticisms and you will learn better from your critics.

Don't get bogged down with negative comments. With every mistake, you do your paintbrush takes a different curve and that lays the foundation for fantastic art.

The more you draw the more you contemplate and the more you grow.

Value art and art forms and it will give you more to take back home.
