I have various talents, and this was a real dilemma for me. I have read somewhere that lots of the famous people have had the same problem. They were painted very good and at the same time they were wielded a skilful pen. And only the fortuity bring them of use to the literature instead of the arts.
I paint very good and finished a high school of fine arts. The most funny thing was that my teachers always praised me that I sing like a lark, instead of being intrerested how I coped with the art of painting. I play the guitar very well, too. I am good at languages, too. And my university education was exactly in this direction.
My hesitations started when I had to decide what to work. I spent the next years of my life in indecision. Meanwhile I finished five courses and all the time I requalified myself. I was at a great crossroads and had no idea which way I have to take. An artist, a designer, a musician or a clerk?
The time was passing and I was developing my skills as a hobby. A strange idea flashed across my sister’s mind – to command the services of some fortune-teller to understand what is my vocation. Thereby the fate met me with Magda. She foretold me that I will be given two proposals and it will be better if choose this one which is associated with painting.
Now I work like a graphic designer, coin money and the most important – I am in a harmony with myself. The another company in which I had to work with my musical capabilities, did not exist already.
