Abby discovers a love for art at an early age. When she struggles with artist's block, she learns a valuable lesson from her Grandpa. He teaches her about abstract art, which allows her freedom to create without worrying about what the outcome will be.

Abby's grandpa is an artist, and passes his love for art onto her. Abby is constantly drawing the world around her, but spends most of her time drawing dogs. Eventually she runs out of ideas of what to draw, and she does not know what to do. Luckily, her Grandpa teaches her about abstract art, relieving her stress. She learns she doesn't always have to draw a "thing", and instead she can focus on trying new materials and styles. This lesson helps her enjoy the art-making process again, and inspires her Grandpa to name her style of art as Abbystract.
