I work as a freelance artist, specializing in the visual arts. Through the arts, I can express myself. The arts have always been a part of my life. It travels with me wherever I go. The arts made it possible for me to effectively convey how I feel, what I think, what I enjoy, and my aspirations in life.

Words come with the air I breathe, and the thoughts and concepts sleep with me at night but I also find it challenging when my ideas fall short, or when my subject is not relatable to the audience. You also have to cope with everyone’s unfavorable judgment and criticisms. I do not mind the difficulties along the way because I love the whole creative process. As the years went by, I have honed my talents and made them more relatable to my audience while maintaining my unique perspective.

I am currently taking up a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education at Cebu Normal University. I want to share my expertise with my future students. I want them to discover and develop their skills while they are still young. My primary intention was to focus on my studies, but by the time I was 20, I was having an existential crisis because I was throwing so much pressure on myself to achieve something. I wanted to become independent and make money on my own.

Since I love playing online games, I’ve decided to play NFT (non-fungible token) games. It allowed me to earn and have fun at the same time. I cherish my family, friends, and loved ones. They supported me throughout my crisis. Now that I am earning and with the holiday season fast approaching, I’d like to give them presents. It is now my turn to repay them. I am so fortunate to have them in my life.

Being an artist, one needs a source of inspiration and I have this really special person in my life. She is my partner in crime. She is always proud of me. She gave me strength when I was weak. She believed in me when everyone else did not- not even me. I am fortunate to have her because not only is she beautiful but she is also a diligent worker. We both have big ambitions. She balances her school and office responsibilities well. I am forever grateful to her for giving me support, mentally, emotionally, and physically.

And I just want to say that sharing your artwork is never about flaunting or proving that you’re brilliant. It’s about being able to express and show a version of the same story from your unique point of view.
