My name is Anna, and my hobby is drawing.

I've liked drawing since I was little; as a kid I often drew our cat.

Now I go to drawing lessons every Saturday.

My teacher is a Chinese woman, and she draws very well.

She tells me not to go too fast when I draw.

Last week, I drew a little bird.

My husband thought the picture was beautiful, and he wanted it.

So I gave it to him.

Now the picture is on his desk at work.

When I draw, I feel very relaxed and forget about everything.
