# About me
My hands decide when I can draw so I never can tell when I will be able to. I don't really want to become a professional artist. Instead, I would like to just draw or paint whenever and whatever I want. I love it when I can gather random inspirations from my friends and all of the fun times that we have!# Comments

You know, it intrigues me that you stated that you don't want to do art professionally. I think you're the first person i've heard aside from myself say you want it to remain a hobby. My family doesn't understand why i'm choosing to go in a different career direction than art, but honestly I worry that doing art for money is going to end with me disliking it. I don't want to hate my passion.

Exactly! Whenever I draw, I either get it right or I get it completely wrong. It's always one way or the other. With that, I don't think I could keep up with a professional career. Besides, art shouldn't be for money. It should be made to enjoy. When I get to it, I am going to go to college to try to become an art teacher so I can help others have fun and express themselves as they want And this also means that I don't have to constantly be working on artwork to make a living! Because honestly, I don't think I could keep up with thatXD It's not that I don't like constantly drawing and painting. I want to do other things too and experience all that life has to offer, and that includes inspiring and helping others achieve their goals.

That's wonderful to hear Yes, art should be something to leave to enjoyment. Don't get me wrong, I do commission work from time to time and I love it, but more often than not I find myself dreading picking up my pencil when its' work-related.
Your reason behind desiring to become an art teacher is very inspiring!
