Answer 1

The overall structure of the sentence is "I am interested in [three things]". A general rule of sentence construction is that multiple parts that are related to a single verb ("interested") should be parallel -- have the same structure. In this case, only (C) shows this parallel structure because all three of the following parts have -ing verbs: "drawing", "painting", and "making". So (C) is the correct answer.
