My name is Karl, and my favorite hobby is drawing. I love to draw pictures of nature. I usually draw flowers, trees, and the sky. Sometimes I draw animals too. Drawing makes me feel happy.
I started drawing two years ago. My grandmother is an artist. She draws beautiful pictures. One day, she gave me a pencil and some paper. She said, "Try it!" I drew a flower, and I liked it very much. Now I draw almost every day.
I have a small desk in my room. That is where I draw. I put my paper, pencils, and erasers on the desk. I like to listen to music when I draw. It helps me feel calm.
First, I look at a picture or go outside. I find something beautiful. Then I draw it with a pencil. After that, I add details. I use different pencils to make light and dark lines. I do not hurry.
My family likes my drawings. My mother puts my pictures on the wall. My father says I am a good artist. My friends also like my drawings. Sometimes I give a drawing as a gift. It makes me happy when they smile.
Drawing is not just a hobby for me. It is a way to show my feelings. When I am sad, I draw. When I am happy, I also draw. I want to be an artist one day. I hope to draw big pictures for many people.
