“When I was 12 years old, my parents got me my first drawing tablet. It was about three by five inches, pretty small, but I thought it was amazing. I felt like I was living the dream because I’ve been wanting one for a really long time, and I finally got did. When I got it I couldn’t stop drawing. I could draw up to ten hours a day.”
