"Thank you." he said, smiling as he tried to keep his face...not so red. "In school, umm, my art teacher had a friend that wanted a portrait done of his family, so he had suggested me. That was my first job that I had." And he was so nervous, he felt as if he was going to be sick.

"I'm still trying to build up a name actually, but so far, everything seems to be going smoothly. A few bumpy roads here and there, but what career doesn't have those." Oh, thank Merlin. He actually was having a not stuttering or nerve wracking conversation. "You just need, to put yourself out there. You know...never give up!

Hmm, what can one do? "Such as...art for theatre! Broadway sets and such. A lot of people go and see Broadway plays.
