Amazing art ! I hope grandpa will be able to do his hobby for many more years, he sure pleases people with it in this high defenition world. I would not mind to have the tree painting in my livingroom !


I have to agree with #1 about the music though, this could use some happy music

I'm always impressed with the artwork people produce ( I can just about draw a circle ) But seeing this elderly gent do stuff like that is WAY beyond impressive.
