I am a painter.

I wonder why painting is so exciting.

I hear people applauding me for my paintings.

I see paint being sold by the hour.

I want to paint one of my favorite flowers.

I am a painter.

I pretend that some of my paintings are featured in popular books.

I feel relived like I am just starting an exciting new career path.

I touch my paintings and examine them.

I worry that I will eventually come short with painting ideas.

I cry about my painting brushes running out.

I am a painter.

I understand that incredible painting takes time to master.

I say we should practice painting more often.

I dream about my paintings being displayed at museums.

I try my best to make all of my paintings glisten.

I hope that I stay persistent.

I am a painter.
