I mean after all; how can you have a career in the creative field if you cannot see the colours properly? Well, you can and I`m living proof of it, for years it was something I had to keep secret because I was ashamed and embarrassed. Eventually, in order to grow and progress, I had to break through the barriers and beliefs, both self-imposed and societal; \u201cthat I could not be an artist\u201d.
