Hello, everybody. Today I‘d like to share with you something about John Audubon.John was born on April 26th, 1785.He spent much of his childhood in France, where he spent many hours each day outdoors painting pictures. At the age of 18, he moved to the United States. Well,actually, John began his life in the US as a businessman. However,instead of taking care of his business, John was often off exploring the nature. At first, John spent his time hunting for fun. Then he found that the animals around were very beautiful, and he particularly enjoyed observing the birds he saw.
He began studying them, trying to learn the differences between the birds and noticing their different behaviors.Therefore, he painted the birds he observed a lot.In 1819, John realized that he didn‘t have enough money to pay his bills. He was very upset that he couldn‘t earn enough money to support his family, so he spent time improving his painting skills and began to sell his paintings.He discovered that he could earn some money while doing something he really enjoyed. We‘ re lucky now to have So many paintings of American birds by John Audubon.

大家好。今天我想和大家分享一些关于约翰·奥杜邦的事情。约翰出生于1785年4月26日。他童年的大部分时间都在法国度过,在那里他每天花很多时间在户外画画。18岁时,他搬到了美国。实际上,约翰在美国开始了他的生意生涯。然而,约翰没有料理他的生意,而是经常去探索大自然。起初,约翰把时间花在寻找乐趣上。然后他发现周围的动物非常美丽,他特别喜欢观察他看到的鸟类。他开始研究它们,试图了解鸟类之间的差异,并注意到它们不同的行为。因此,他画了很多他观察到的鸟。1819年,约翰意识到他没有足够的钱来支付账单。他因无法挣到足够的钱养家糊口而感到非常沮丧,于是他花时间提高绘画技巧,并开始出售自己的画。他发现自己可以在做自己真正喜欢的事情的同时赚点钱。我们现在很幸运,有这么多约翰·奥杜邦的美国鸟类画作。
