I support my little granddaughter in her attempts to be artistic. Therefore, our house is often messy. The little girl found a box of old nail varnishes, lots of colours – red, pink, black, white, silver and purple. She wanted to paint a picture of a tree with flowers and fruits and many butterflies. Unfortunately, there weren’t enough colours for a tree. I needed to look in another box for burnt ochre and “viridian” green. Now we have a speckled table but she has a very lovely picture.
