@Maestro02 5 April 2021 more from that month

I Will Always be Grateful for all the Support I Receive.

I have many **friends**, **family**, and **subscribers** to **read.cash** and **noise.cash** knows that I am an **artist**. They know my situation now during the pandemic that I can **no longer** do artworks often because I am more focused on academics and writing articles. **Author's Note:** I created this article not to **brag** but to **inspire**. I hope you will learn the lesson that I want to portray. Since my childhood, I have been supported by my family. Especially of my mom and dad. **Simple** **pencil** and **paper** when I was young is fine with me because I can draw the things I want to draw. I still remember when I was in **grade 2,** what I often held was **pencil** and **paper** but I used it to draw people and cartoon figures rather than write what was on the blackboard. They saw potential in me so they continue to **support** me. When I was in 6th grade, my aunt bought me a set of **art supplies**. It is fully equipped with **pencils**, **eraser**, **color pencils**, **water color**, **paint brush**, **pallette** and many other tools that can be used to create art. At that time my aunt did not have any children so she could still buy me things that were so beautiful and expensive. I had so much fun during those times because I really wanted to be a full-time artist. When I was in high school, my father enrolled me in a **curriculum** that taught the **arts**. At first I had a hard time but with the help of the **older artists** I was with there in the curriculum, I learned. They guided us until we learned the basics and the complex things we had to learn if we were to make artworks. **Four years later**, I finished my high school and I graduated with a title as a ‘**Visual Artist**’. I was very happy then because I had fulfilled my dream because I already have a lot of knowledge in the basics of the arts and also have four years of **experience** in making **paintings** and **portraits**. But the pleasure was replaced by sadness because my father who was also an artist no longer reached my success. He never caught me accepting the **medal** which I won in local tournaments in the arts industry because he passed away when I was only in **grade 9.** Even so, I continued fighting and I offered it to my family, especially my father, everything I would fight for. **The Biggest Support I Received.**

**3rd of April,2021**. We went to my aunts in **Carranglan**, **Nueva Ecija** which is also not far from our house. It took 2 hours to travel from here to there so we had another tiring trip. We went there to visit my father's siblings and also to pick up the **item** my uncle had sent us from **Canada**.

I was full of emotion of what I saw because my uncle sent me **172 Pcs of professional color pencils.** I used to only see it used by **professional artists** in the online group I joined '**Guhit Pinas'** which created realistic and beautiful masterpieces. I will admit, this equipment is expensive but I appreciate more the **support** my uncle gives me. My uncle is not reflective of me on such things. Yes, he said before that I was good and that I would go far in the arts industry, but I don't think I will receive this much **support** from them.

When I got this item I immediately texted him and **thanked him very much**. I did not ask for such a thing, but I still receive more than I imagine. I am ready to help someone who is willing to learn the arts. This is also what I say and do to my junior high school juniors who want to learn the arts. Even if we feel like there is a **pandemic** right now, it will not be an obstacle to pursuing our **dream**. I may not be able to continue my being a **full-time** artist because of the many academics that are being done right now but I believe I will be able to pursue this in the near future as well. **Padayon,Everyone**! Closing Thoughts; I was even more **determined** to continue to grow my ability especially and a **new** art style opened up for me. For the rest of my life I will be **grateful** for all the **support** I receive. Starting with my **fights**, **commissions** and **art-related** projects, my family is there to **support**. I am so grateful to have them. I know I still have a lot to learn and I am always open for it. I am very **grateful** to everyone. You can count on me to pursue my dream especially of being a **writer**, **singer** and a great **artist**. I didn’t really need the thing and I also didn’t ask for such a thing, but **I received more than I imagine**. **Again, thank you so much!** *~Maestro02*
