Jasir recalls the first time when he drew a picture of a lion and he was supported and encouraged by parents in his hobby.
Initially, when he started painting at school five years ago, he used to do it secretly as he was scolded at school. He said that schools lack facilities for encouraging painting and hopes all schools will have such facilities to boost the talent of students.
