Claim: 老爷(grandpa) is my hero because he is caring, funny, virtuous, and a good artist. Evidence: he paints very well acnd I want to learn how to make art like him. He is also funny and creative. Analysis: He is my hero because when I grow up I would like to be like him. He lives in a smog infested city but is still surrounded by nature. He has a lab in his backyard even though he lives in an apartment. He is also very healthy even though he is over 80 years old.
My 老爷 is funny and caring. In the picture above, he just surprised my step-grandma 秒奶奶 with a speech and a rose at her birthday dinner. He is good at cooking and caring for us when we stay at his house in China.
老爷 is an amazing artist. He mostly paints in the wooden lab behind his apartment. A lot of his paintings are using the Chinese style- few strokes with a watercolor look, but sometimes he uses oil paints too. He even went to a America just to study how to use oil paints. I wish I could be as skilled and dedicated to art as he is.
My 老爷 loves nature and hiking. He once took us out on a hiking trip in the mountains. After he came home, he painted some of the sights we saw and gave them to me as presents. Of course, Chinese art is almost always of nature.
老爷 and 秒奶奶 are both amazing cooks. 老爷's conviction that all thing taste better with sugar always holds true when he's making us breakfast. 秒奶奶's dinner and home made yogurt are also delicious. The only thing I can cook is rice.
