MYSELF:

When it comes to myself and being creative there are many ways in which I enjoy expressing myself creatively. When I was younger I always turned to dance to express myself and my creativity whether I was happy or sad. After many years of dancing in theatres and contests I got older and eventually grew out of dance. I now love doing a sketchbook. It is like a creative diary in which I can put my thoughts and ideas straight onto paper so that I can see them visually and develop them into bigger and better ideas.
