sakura Painting

I am 26. I am a young mother of three children) I do charitable work. I go to the Protestant church and lead a children's ministry. My hobby is drawing. And this is my bread. I am a self-taught artist. Because my parents wouldn't let me go to art school. I have almost no creative biography. But I will tell you everything about myself, if you are interested in reading this) I had no parents. I was raised by a grandmother under 4 years old. Then my grandmother died, and my older sister raised me. It was a quiet horror. Perhaps it was the hard life that made me start painting. Because the person who goes through the difficulties of life dreams of the beautiful. And transfers your dreams to canvas. I started drawing at about 12 years old. My first works hung on school exhibitions. Then I drew for free for a rock band in a small town just for someone to start making friends with me. Nobody was friends with me, because I was very self-contained and not sociable. When my sister found out that I was drawing for people for free, she scolded me. Because she wanted me to study in a regular school and not drop out of school because of drawing. She also craved money. But since I painted for free, it made her angry. And her husband collected all my drawings and burned them in the furnace. I have not received any education in the artistic sphere. It was difficult, but I coped morally. In 18 years I left home. I became happier from the feeling of complete freedom. After a while I decided to start painting again, and I painted portraits for 300 Russian rubles. that's about $ 5. Gradually, I gained experience. Most recently, I decided to start drawing pictures.
