Nude On The Bed: A First Love Is An Ember That Sits Right In Your Heart

During my college days I used to paint a lot and this is one of the few paintings in soft pastel that I have done entitled “Nude On The Bed”. I’ve always used watercolour as my primary medium and I’ve always painted nude figures... naturally because the female form has the most graceful lines. 

I didn’t pursue my interest in painting because it was not allowed by my father, saying that a medical career is a more lucrative one (this is really a classic story) and I was a good girl, too. I did as what my father told me, I finished my studies but I realized that my undying love for creating and the arts can never be forgotten, it can only be set aside. 

Now I have a career that is totally unlike to that which I studied at school, because a first love is an ember that sits right in your heart...
