     In my free time, I paint designs(图案)on T-shirts. I got the  idea  two  years  ago  for  my  brother's
birthday present. The shop wanted $20 for a special design on a T-shirt, so I  decided to  do  it  myself.
I bought a white cotton T-shirt at $6 and some paints, then I painted  a  lion  on  the  front. My  brother
loved it very much.
     Painting T-shirts is great fun. You needn't be a great artist(艺术家), and you  can just  paint  shapes
and lines. The T-shirts are the most expensive part of my hobby. You have to use special paints because
they can last a long time. Brushes are not really expensive but you  need  to  buy  ones  of  good  quality
(质量).
     I love my  hobby  because I can make T-shirts that no one else has got.   I have given a  lot  of  them
away as presents to my  family and friends. Sometimes,  I sell them. Since I started, I've made about  60
T-shirts and each one is different.
