He has tried to draw some of his favorite monsters. But when some of the monsters became too hard for him to draw on his own, he enlisted the help of another artist – his grandfather in Japan.
Kai took screen shots of the monsters and emailed them to Jiji. His grandfather then sketched them on paper and mailed them to Kai.

And of course, he shares it with his grandfather via Skype.

Grandfather and grandson bonding over their shared love of art. Gotta love it.
What a great way for those two to bond. I see pure pleasure in Kai's face, especially in that last photo.
