Grand Image: Do you have any favorite projects that your dad has done?

AP: I like the Fluid Forms. Because they’re just scribbles and it seems easy and simple to do, so I could do it.

Grand Image: Please describe your dad in 4 words.

AP: Kind, thoughtful, caring, and artistic!

Grand Image: What 3 colors describe your dad?

AP: White, pink, and yellow. White: because he sees a white space and paints on it. And because he always wears white shirts. Pink: it’s his favorite color and suits him well. Yellow: it’s such a bright and cheery color and it’s my favorite color.

Grand Image: What are your favorite colors right now?

AP: Red, yellow, and purple

Grand Image: Do you like painting with your dad? Why or why not?

AP: Yes, I really like it because it is fun. I want him to teach me to become a better artist.
