I love to paint. Since early childhood, I've had a steady hand and would draw pages and pages of sketches. Back then, my mom had a long bathroom and she had put up all my paintings and sketches there. It was a joke in the familyu00a0-- Shazahn Hall of Fame! Even today my mom has saved every bit of stroke that I've made on paper.


I took a few art classes to improve my technique. I love to draw faces. The expressions on others' faces make me want to sketch them on paper. Even now, while I'm workingu00a0-- in the theatre or on the setsu00a0-- I draw during the breaks. You'll find that I'm never without a sketch pad. At times, I just start drawing and what evolves out of it can be rather interesting; it is amazing what comes out when you least expect it!
I have books and books of sketches, but I haven't had the guts to draw on canvas yet.
