A 90-year-old man in Chongqing Municipality has drawn more than 500 pictures of tigers in the past seven years and is referred to as "Grandpa Tiger" by his neighbors.

Zhang Xueguang liked painting as a child. In the summer of 2000, Zhang was attracted by majestic-looking tigers in a TV program and had the idea of painting tigers.

Since then, he has visited the local zoo to see tigers twice a week. He said that he wanted to hold a small photo exhibition so that more people could appreciate his pictures of tigers.
