As a young boy, Paul wanted to be a painter. When he told his parents. his father said,“I know that you like to paint. But we are farmers. We need you on the farm. 1 hope that you will not go away. I hope that you will stay with us on the farm. I will buy paper and paint for you.”
Paul did not want to paint on the farm. He did not like to paint animals like cats and dogs, cows and horses, chickens and ducks. But he stayed there to help his parents.
After a few years, Paul's father asked him,“Do you still want to be a painter?”
“Of course, I do,”answered the boy.
“Your younger brothers are big now,”said father.“We can take care of our farm by ourselves. Your brothers will be in your place. I am going to send (送) you to a painting school. I hope that you will be a great painter.”
