The Story of the Magic Brush
Aug 10, 2025
In a bustling village market town along the banks of the Perfume River, there lived a young man named Hoa who possessed an extraordinary gift for painting. Despite being born into poverty, with only rags for clothes and barely enough rice to eat each day, Hoa saw beauty everywhere and longed to capture it on paper.
Since he could not afford proper brushes and ink, Hoa would draw with charcoal on scraps of wood, use berry juice for color, and practice his art on the sandy ground by the river. The other villagers often mocked him for his shabby appearance and his seemingly useless talent.
