Art is a very powerful tool that you can use to discover yourself and realise your potential. It's a journey into the unknown, because you never know where you'll end up. You discover a lot along the way. You get to know yourself as a person, you become more confident and stronger, and every time you make sure that you are on the right path. Art and life are one for me
