There is so much to discover to explore. It is just a beginning. Teaching creative expression is difficult, fun, time consuming, challenging, satisfying and a lot of Work-sometimes all at the same time blend of Chaotic and peaceful, it has become an everyday part of my life. It gets into everything I do, and drags me into more. It connects me to myself. It connects me to those around me. Everyone who touches my art adds to it, to me, and I to them. The way of life I’ve chosen allows me my way of art. It is a better way to live, and it suits me. Owais Matin
