As a young boy, Robert Coombs had
received one of the most exciting presents he could remember – a set of
watercolor paints. He was so anxious to use them that he quickly
grabbed a pad of paper and sat down to paint anything he could find. It
ended up being a bowl of fruit and he applied the paint straight out of
the tube as thick as toothpaste. The paint cracked and fell off within
a matter of days and Robert was out of paint. He didn't let it get him
down and was determined to find out how to make a painting. Such has
been the ongoing struggle for him to become an artist – a series of
trial and error, of discovery and exhilaration, hope and determination.
