Everyone has hobbies. I too have a hobby. My favourite hobby is painting. I started painting when I was in Grade one. When I was small, I painted on small art papers with pencils and crayons. But later, I started using large art papers, water colours and oil paints instead of small paper, pencils and crayons.
I often participate in art competitions and I have won several awards. My parents and my sister encourage me greatly in my hobby. Everyone who sees my paintings tells me that my paintings are beautiful.
I love to paint pictures which are connected to nature. My ambition is to become a great artist one day. I hope to visit Paris for a short training in painting during the school holidays. I like my hobby very much. I hope to send good messages through my paintings.
I believe that paintings can showcase what is in our minds. I want to change the world by giving good messages through my paintings and make this world a better place to live in.
