Outline

A boy who loves to draw is sketching a bird in the forest one day. The bird he is drawing so enthusiastically has spotted wings, and as he becomes more fascinated with their strange pattern than with his sketch, they pull him in. The spots as they cover the whole screen and envelop the boy present a spectacle that is at first glance grotesque, but there is a strange and bewitching appeal that goes along with the artist’s original sense of color.
