Reading. Form 5

My name is Jane and my hobby is painting. I like to paint animals and flowers, but I’m not good at painting people. Most of all I enjoy paintingthe places I visit. My parents and I often go for excursions to other towns and visit different famous places.

 My parents use a camera to take photos but I think that to have a picture which you have painted yourself is more interesting.

When I come home after each excursion, I bring my pictures to school to show them to the classmates and the teachers. Everybody likes them and they say I’ll become a famous artist in the future. Last year I took part in the competition of young painters of our town and won it. My parents were proud of me and my teacher of Art presented me wonderful paints.
