A small child has an exhibition for his art. His name is Rayan. He is from Syria. People think that he is the youngest artist in Syria. He is five years old.

He starts to paint when he is two years old. His grandfather teaches him. His grandfather says that his grandson is very good at painting. He still has things to learn.

His grandfather says that his grandson knows how to paint shadows. He uses two colors when he wants to paint a shadow on a face. One color is for a light side. One color is for a dark side.

Difficult words: exhibition (a place where an artist shows his or her art), shadow (a place with no sun), dark (not light).
