Who was your most influential teacher? Why?

When I was studying in high school, the art teacher gave me a lot of work to do at home, because she thought I had the skills to do artistic work.
I liked drawing, but I wasn’t interested😶, so every Friday, when class started, I sat at the last desks at the back of the classroom so as not to be seen and punctually she called me and made me draw.
After graduation, one day, returning home from university, I met her on the street; she lived near me and asked me if I wanted to help her finish a painting job.
To earn some money 🤔… could be a good idea and then I was a little curious. I said her, <yes! Thanks>.
This was the beginning of my artistic works. Surely she was able to recognize in me this my skill, that after was a job too.
Thanks teacher😃
