Portrait of Dad,
water colour pencil on paper, 
May 2003.

My dad is special to me because he is the one that usually takes me to the movies, golfing and fishing. 

I chose to make it like this because my dad is a fire fighter and he likes to hunt in the bush and fish in rivers, lakes or seas, especially in our home country, Canada.

I made this portrait of my friend to show people that he is a special person. I drew the animals in the background because he likes nature. I want people to think that he is a good friend and I like him.

I made this portrait of my father because he is the one that usually takes me fishing and to the movies. That is why he is special to me. I chose to have a blue background to represent the sea because half the time my dad is at the coast. The fish represent his love of fishing.

My portrait is my first girl friend, Nadia, that’s why my background has hearts. I met her when I moved to Thailand for two years because my dad got a job there. I was in kindergarten when we met. We were best friends and we played together a lot then we both moved and never saw each other again.

This is a picture of my mother, Gail. I drew this picture because I think of her every day at school and I love her. In the background I put love hearts because she loves me and I drew books because she loves reading. I coloured in blue for the background as it is her favourite colour.

My portrait is of my dad. He is a generous person, does good deeds and helps me with a lot of work. He keeps me going, leading me to higher goals. He always teaches me more of my native language, Sri Lankan. I drew the background because he likes astronomy and nature.

Title:  My Dad
Water colour pencil on paper
May,  2003

My father is special to me because he likes his garden, his flight simulator and his computer. 

I decided to draw my Godfather because he passed away last year and I wanted to always remember him. My Godmother gave me the teddy bear after he died because she knew he always wanted me to have it. The cross represents the one he gave me for my christening

I chose hearts for the background because I love my sister, even though she is sometimes annoying. Her dress is blue because that is her favourite colour.
