#challenge0

My name is Valentino. I’m 12 years old and I love spending time colouring in images , I have many felt pens , my favourite colour in red. I like to colour in anything especially animals. I love to be creative so I like to paint to make collages and taking photos. During lockdown colouring was fun and helpful. Art makes me happy.  I love to travel every where. I love to go to Puglia in Italy and eat mozzarella and playing around the olive trees. I like to collect pebbles at the seaside and them colour them in.

Downs . I like going to the South Bank and the BFI, Prince Charles cinema and Regent Street Cinema.  

Lockdown was just chaos. I loved not being at school.

I live in Central London and feel blessed to have so many things on my doorstep. I love being creative and enjoy socialised, keeping active and eating! Food brings people together and I like trying different things. I've been involved with a Digital Story Telling project with HCA and my children have taken part in various projects when they were younger. Lock down is odd and has had ups and downs for me. It's been earie going out for walks and seeing a bustling city almost as a ghost town. I have appreciated the peacefulness and breathing in air that isn't heavily polluted. I miss social interactions, eating out, sitting for a coffee and just watching the world go by. I've had days where I feel I've been productive and days where I feel I have done absolutely nothing! And that's ok, I'm accepting my little achievements and hopeful that it'll all be ok. I think will be nice to have a little creative outlet and I think this project is a reminder that we all have a connection to a bigger picture!
