00:00Hi you guys, we're here at Longdon's Primary School and a fantastic piece of artwork.

00:11What's your full name Esther?
00:13Marie Brooks
00:15And a cute little teddy bear you've got there, let's just zoom in.
00:18That is a prize, is that right?
00:21So this is for your fantastic artwork.
00:24So I believe you've been inspired by a famous artist, a well known artist.
00:29Who's that then?
00:31Romero Brito
00:33We did a school competition and Esther's come out on top.
00:37Looks fantastic doesn't it?
00:39Yeah, very good, very vibrant.
00:41So you're Esther's teacher?
00:42I am yes.
00:43So is she kind of quite a colourful, creative person generally in life?
00:46She is yeah, she loves her colours and she's done a very very good job here I think.
00:50Well I've seen your hand, you've been practising your artwork on your hand haven't you.
00:54So where do you come up with your idea from then, have you got some pet fish at home have you?
00:58No.
00:59No?
01:00I think it was Miss Holden in class, she came up with the idea with the fish.
01:04We could either do a flamingo or a fish.
01:06Yeah, they were choosing to do a flamingo or a fish and Esther chose the fish.
01:10Well I was asking you, what would you like to do for a job then when you're older?
01:14An interior designer.
01:16Yeah, something nice and creative.
01:18And your parents, are they creative, do they draw, do they paint?
01:23Is that both?
01:24Yeah.
01:25Do they?
01:26Yeah?
01:27So it's something in the blood.
01:28So how does it feel to kind of win this award?
01:32When you finish your artwork did you think, you know what, this is it, this is a good one this is?
01:37Yeah definitely.
01:38Yeah you felt confident?
01:40Kind of.
01:41So how does it feel to get the award then Esther and what do you think of it?
