Young Chia Mae was selected as the winner of the Billy Lidz Children’s Boutique Christmas colouring competition.
Her artistic skills has won her a $50 voucher to be spent at the Berwick business.
Mum Rebecca Tan said Chia has always possessed a passion for art.
“She has been involved in colouring competitions since she was about three years old and she hasn’t stopped,“ Ms Tan said.
“When she was younger, I used to do a lot of craft with her and take her to Fountain Gate craft sessions every week.“
Ms Tan said Chia was “over the moon“ to be selected as the winner.
“It was a great end to the year,“ she said.
“It was enjoyable for her because it was during the school holidays.
“It took her about an hour, once she starts she wont stop.“
The pair have already spent their prize money, using it to purchase Christmas gifts.
“We used the voucher to buy summer caps for her cousins for Christmas,“ Ms Tan said.
She said nine year old Chia plans to participate in many more colouring competitions to come.
