Your colour as usual is stunning, and I loved the accompanying text. How old is your daughter?

I sketched this florwer in Al Ain Zoo. Maybe then I dropped the camera near the flower,not crocodile's cage. My daughter will be 12 years old in next month. I think she was pretending believing in my story to make me happy. I always think something funny things to make my daughter laugh. Thank you for encouraging me. I'd like to paint some more flowers.

A beautiful piece, Midori, and it commemorates a really interesting experience! It's what I like about art - our paintings always have a story to tell and always capture moments in our memory!

Thank you Seok, I'm trying to paint a bit abstract.

When I went to Al Ain Zoo yesterday, I must have dropped my camera, after I took some photos of ducks.I thought somebody who had a very kind heart must have picked it up and took it to the Zoo office. I went to the Zoo office today. There was my camera on a desk. Incredible! I said thank you a million times and sent a text message to my family. I found my camera. It got back!!!!! My daughter asked, "'In where?" I said, 'Al Ain Zoo." Where in the zoo? Next to the giraffes? No, inside a crocodile's poo. What? You are kidding, mum? Oh, sorry I made a mistake, not in the poo. In the crocodile's stomach. The crocodile was very sick. So it got an X-ray. My camera was in the stomach. Maybe I dropped my camera near crocodile's cage. I'm very lucky. The zoo returned it to me.
