I did my masters in biotechnology, and now i want to apply for bachlers in fine arts. I want to do this course as i have inborn talent. I sometimes feel that I am born to make paintings and only paintings. It is my first love turned out to be my passion, something i can relate myself to. by drawing i get immense joy and inner satisfaction. i come up with new things everyday , my mind is constantly thinking about a picture , by making drawings i started thinking why dont i pick this up and learn somewhere professionally so that i understand various modes of drawing and bring best out of me. the most important think according to my point of view in a artistic way is that an artist is never satisfied . this incomplete satisfaction urges him to make something more beautiful , something more meaningful which finally leads to his best work.

the day i held a pencil in my hand, my mind was in drawing, right from my childhood i won many school and college level competitions . i never went for classes, i would take someones opinion and would learn . mostly i learnt from books.( i feel they are the best teachers).most of the time i end up doing doodles. whenever i am upset i doodle a lot which makes me forget my worries . no matter how low i feel . this is one way of getting motivation , and all of sudden positivity enters my body. i start thinking for solutions and bring back my confidence.

I did my masters in biotechnology, while painting was my hobby, in due course of time , my favorite subject was biology. while i was winning painting competitions, at the same time my love for biology grew, i also stared getting more marks than any of my subjects, after my 12th i opted for bachlers in biotechnology, i remember my dad saying , 'you must focus on your career , painting and drawing should be always your hobby , basic requirment of academics is very essential , also due to traditional way of thinking comes in the picture , that this field has no specific scope, it will be waste of time , things like that, even i thought he is right , drawing is something which i wont leave so easily so why so much hassle now. i scored descent marks in my bachlers , i opted for masters in biotech as just being a graduate would not help me so much. yes but i had also decided that it i dont get admission for my masters in good collge i would take up drawing, as i was still winning competitions and i was losing interest in studies. luckily i got through mumbai university for masters , i just took the admissions , by the end of my first year i was completely exhausted and frustated studing , working in laboratory.I had to push myself in last months , as my basics were strong i had no problem in studing but my mind was always in drawing. whatever days were they i m happy i have done my masters and i have no regrets but it wont be justified if i dont give time to my passion now . i know it will be very frustating in coming years if i dont do anything right now.as time will pass i will forget everything , it will take time to bring out best in me , and failing in it will again trouble me all throghout my life.

My mom says when I was 3 months old , she would keep me on bed near paintings hung on wall, i would stare on those paintings for hours, even if she would say anything to distract me ,i would not move or budge.this is one incident which i remember vividly , When i was 6, like daily routine i just made a rough doodle and showed it to my grandmom. she was so happy to see it that she just couldnt express it but tears rolled out. It boosted me so much that everytime i went to her, she would appreciate me so much , it made me ran to my room , scribble something and then get back to her laughter, for instant praise, even today most of my work are based on doodles , my school and collge boks are filled with doodles. i also managed to do basic course diploma when i was in second year of my graduation in biotechnology, but i cudnt sit for exam as i had my grad school papers on that very same day! looking back to the bighter side, it was a great experience , i can never forget those days when i used run for drawing lessons up early in morning , try to complete the assignment and run back for my afternoon lectures in college, come back to art school in evening , finish my assignment , take things go back home , study and prepare for next day !. it also included my mom's work , as my Dad had one to U.S for work . That year was best year of my grad school. it was full of energy , enthusiasm and zest.

i am not a great speaker , but i like to express my thoughts , my ideas, my emotions through the medium of my paintings. I am a great nature lover , my paintings mostly focus on himalayan ranges. My education background is very strong which has given me base, i can always get job and give myself financial stability. and now that i m through with my qualification, i dont want to waste a single minute , by not doing something which i always wanted to do.

My objective of doing this course is to learn more drawing skills and techniques, to acquire deeper knowledge in painting and drawing, to encourage my creative and innovative ideas in professional field, to understand the basics and fundamentals in drawing--VERY Important.

My short term goals include to get a degree in fine arts, also try to work in clinical research field as i have done a course in it i would like to have an experience. I want to live my life to fullest while doing my fine arts and be happy . long term goals include dedicating my entire life to my work -paintings and only paintings , i dont have intention of working all throughout my life. biotechnology can be part of my life but it cannot take place over my passion -- i.e paintings!. My parents support me a lot while i was taking this decision i thought it wud be difficult to change their minds , but they are happy that i have done my masters and they dont want anything from me. I am very determined to take this step as it is one the most important turning point of my life !. i want to give my 100 % in this so that i dont feel as if i did not give time to my creativity.it will be very disheartening if i dont even try . my Dad has always told me that i must have experience of everything as it gives you idea of what you can do and what can be done in coming future.

last but not the least if i dont do it now i wont be doing it again , ofcourse making more nd more paintings is my ambition, which will continue all throughout my life, but setting up a direction for my passion will satisfy me more than anything else in life!

PLS I ANYONE CHECKS OUT FOR MISTAKES WILL BE VERY THANKFUL.

What I get from your essay: You followed your father's advice to pursue biotechnology, a promising field for a lucrative career. After obtaining your master's (in science I presume,) you find yourself back where you started, wanting to be a painter (I presume from what you wrote.) It would help to learn about what you intend to do with a Bachelor's in Fine Art. Can you live off your passion? Have you worked in biotech (or just studied?) Also, your essay leaves me wondering if you like to be a perpetual student. IMHO, your long-term goal is pretty vague and only possible if your parents continue to provide you support and welfare. You are very fortunate that they want you to be happy and can/will. Some inconsistencies - see my CAPS:

long term goals include dedicating my entire life to my work -paintings and only paintings , DO YOU MEAN PAINTING FOR PAINTING'S SAKE WITH NO NEED OF GETTING REVENUE FOR YOUR WORK? i dont have intention of working all throughout my life WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?? biotechnology can be part of my life WHAT PART?? but it cannot take place over my passion -- i.e paintings!.

My short term goals include to get a degree in fine arts, also try to work in clinical research field as i have done a course in it i would like to have an experience. WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY THIS? WHAT KIND OF EXPERIENCE IN CLINICAL RESEARCH. HOW DO YOU SEE DOING THIS WHEN YOU ARE GETTING THE DEGREE - SEPARATELY LATER OR SIMULTANEOUSLY?

Work to better focus your intro and concluding paragraphs. At this point, the middle part basically narrates how you were able to complete your masters without being passionate for the subject. It would be interesting if you could tie the two together somehow. This would impress the reader that you can make the best of both worlds.

Finally, please use spellcheck to catch your mistakes. It will save us time to comment on the substance of your essay versus correcting typos.
