Pigglys, I go there every weekend. Why? Cos I get a drink, Coca-Cola. I go every weekend, see family or I buy a drink. I’m going into Pigglys to get a drink and this dog is lookin at me, cos they stop at Pigglys. Papa [dog], he’s chasin me, when I go to the shop, goin inside the shop, he’s chasin me. That dog, he comes from Abbotts Camp. My ideas come from my sister, I look at my sister, always she’s painting. I look and learn. I do painting now. Painting is palya, palya means good. I like to paint.
