His parents were deeply saddened, this association accompanied the parents Huang Yi-Cheng and Yang Hui-Cheng for over a year, helping them to come out of grief, and organized the 52 paintings done by Andy. Among them, Andy loved speed, such as eagles, leopards, sharks, the Taiwan High Speed Rail, and airplanes. Andy also liked cars; with only his imagination he could draw the appearance of a car and its internal dashboard. Although Andy was just a young child, he was a perfectionist, if he was just a little unsatisfied, or the ratio was just a little off, he would erase and redraw. It was this attitude that built Andy's amazing life. Because Andy was only in this world for seven years, 10 months, and fifteen days, he was able to paint with dignity and his paintings lighted up this world.
