Drawing
Drawing and oil painting
is my favourite hobby. I've been drawing for as far back as I can remember. Started
in my early childhood in the Quranic schools when I
use to draw on the wood tablets or on the ground. It was not allowed to draw figures of
human beings, living things or creature. Therefore, cars, houses or other cityscape
figures were my early models. When I was
nine or( my be
ten)I was fascinated by the drawings of ships sailing on high seas. I
actually saw an Italian lady in the neighbourhood drawing one of those ships at her back garden.
At school, I found a good opportunity to
develop this hobby. I was the best of the class in drawing scoring high marks
at Drawing exams and was highly encouraged by teachers
giving drawing lessons. At high school,
my younger brother took one of my painting to a
shopkeeper for sale. He offered a
price which I found very cheap and refused to sell the painting. That was the
only time that I have ever presented my drawings for
sale.
I enjoy also pencil or pen sketching , cartooning, scribbling instinctively , even while talking in a long phone conversation. I also spend a
lot of time experimenting with digital graphic tools.
