Artist’s Statement
When I worked on this painting I was thinking of my Grandfather. My Grandfather passed away last year. My Mom and I were very sad. I will always think of my Grandfather as a sweetheart. I will always love him very much. That’s why this painting is so colourful. Art is my favourite hobby because it makes me feel happy. My art is a gift I like to share because I care for others.”
