TELL US A LITTLE ABOUT YOUR ART BACKGROUND

I've been fascinated by drawing since I was in Kindergarten. That's not unusual at all, since art is the primary tool that elementary school teachers use to keep five year olds from crying, MOMMMY!!!! I WANT MOMMY!!!!! WWWWWWWAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!!!!! when they first come to school. My earliest memory of drawing was doing a purple finger painting thing in class, and I was fascinated that I could literally imagine stuff in my head and see it seconds later on a piece of paper. I felt like I had a superpower or something! As a result, I NEVER missed home while I was in class and didn't even mind that there were a lotta strange kids around me eating paste and whatnot! Who Cares, I was DRAWING!
