ZAIN: Hi, my name is Zain, and I'm in Year 5 at Chullora Public School on Dharug land. I titled my artwork a 'Crackle of Cockatoos in the School Playground', and I create it on Dharug land. I created it by going outside to the school playground and drawing an en plein air artwork. I liked how there was a group of cockatoos on the criss-crossing trees in front of the hall. That really caught my eye. My artwork is a multimedia artwork that has layers of cardboard, paint and paper.

I'm happy that my artwork will be in the Westmead Children's Hospital because nobody likes to be in hospital or even visiting someone in hospital to see them being sad, so I hope that my artwork can cheer them up.
