Going to art school for a year is high up there on my bucket list! It's like this magical place where creativity runs wild, and I get to be part of the fun.

You know what's amazing? It's not just about learning to paint or draw better (though that's a big plus), but about how art makes me feel. When I'm painting, I'm in a whole other world. It's my little slice of meditation and joy.

The world around me disappears, and it's just me and the canvas, and sometimes a good podcast. The swish of a brush or most of the time my fingers or any other tool at hand, the mix of colours, and the mess I make. Yes, I am a very messy abstract painter.  It’s so much fun. It's like my thoughts take a break, and I'm lost in the colours and lines I'm blending. And time flies…
