Ka Yin Lau Mum’s adventure at Wilsons Prom

Age 11

9-12 year olds

My family and I went to Wilsons Promontory for a fun holiday. I chose to create this picture of my mum while bushwalking because it captured the beautiful background – green trees, hills, rocks and golden sand. She always encourages me to go to the outback and enjoy the beautiful scenery. In this picture, my mum is so happy and that moment is very important to me. I tried hard to get her features right. My mum inspired me to start doing art and use different mediums, and I share my paintings with my family and friends.
