Description of Piece:
In my picture, a man is telling a story to his children. It is a custom that every father
must tell a story to his children so that they know about their culture.
The value I am depicting is passing down traditions and educating our children.
More about the artist:
I am from a hard working family. We are a family of five and I am the second son. In my
free time, I play football and read books. I like people who are honest. I dislike people
that are bad.
When I grow up, I want to become a medical doctor.
