Did Adolf Hitler want to be an artist when he was a student?

Answer

Yes, Hitler not only wanted to be an artist, but in fact painted and sketched a number of pictures. I have seen these pictures both on the inter-net, but also in a book that I have.

I think they looked OK, though more like a photograph, with no imagination used as a true artist would do. They were mostly of buildings, and every brick was shown.
