There was a artist and his destiny was to paint. The world was colourless.

He painted the Praying Mantis green.

He painted the starfish red and white.

And the seahorse was painted pale orange with green eyes.

Then the artist sat on the beach and looked at the sky.

It was a beautiful sight of blue and white. He wondered who painted the sky?
