Which two narrative techniques does the writer use in this excerpt?

Sweat dripped from Andre’s forehead as he dipped the brush into the can of sky-colored paint that was carefully placed on Mrs. Robinson’s kitchen counter. He’d been working since sunrise and was lost in thought about how close he was to having enough money to make his purchase. All summer he’d saved his earnings from stocking the shelves of the Welner’s Grocery Store—even picking up extra shifts when he could. Last month, when he’d turned 16, he’d decided to supplement his income by doing small jobs for the people in his neighborhood. He’d become a pro at mowing lawns, fixing gutters, and now… painting. Each job got him a little closer to his goal—saving enough money to purchase the 1976 Ford Ranchero. It had been sitting alone on the car lot since May. Andre had probably inspected it a hundred times imagining the moment when the keys were in his hand and he drove it off the lot.

Andre brushed the last strip of cream blue color along the edge of the ceiling. The blue was almost the same as the Ranchero—the color of freedom and independence.
