When did your love for art begin?

The Artist
The short story is: I started showing an interest for art at a very young age and this love developed over time as I became more exposed to various art forms. I enjoyed my art classes that I took from about the age of 8 years old extramurally and this encouraged me to continue studying art in High School. The longer story is: In reality, my mother suggested I study art as one of my subjects in matric, instead of taking Latin or French like my friends.

Not really, although she did, only briefly, allow herself to be manipulated off her feet by Chaplin, but not without some deep-down and quickly-corrected reservations. Charlie Chaplin's manipulative and abusive personality is well documented-the same patterns persist in each of the surviving memoirs by three of his lovers (Lita Grey, Georgia Hale, and May Reeves).

Pola Negri Frequently Asked Questions FAQ FAQ's
Absolutely! In every picture or home movie I have ever seen of Pola and Rudy together, Pola's countenance is like that of a little girl in a candy store. Pola was clearly infatuated with her Rudy, and because Rudy died before the "honeymoon" (so to speak) was over, Pola continued to have a vision of Rudy as the perfect man-something she never completely got over.
