Because of health problem, instead of going to paint from nature with my tutors in some mountains, I painted in Beijing Botanical Garden in day time and painted in the classroom in the evenings. Unfortunately, on the 3rd day I prepared to go to the Botanical Garden, I did not feel comfortable so that I went to the hospital, then I was required to infuse medicine via my vein for at least 3 days. So, I completed this painting at the time before I go to hospital or after I came back from it. How do you think of this painting? Do you enjoy it?
