I completed it after an operation in the Chinese Spring Festival. I wanted to admire a feeling of brave, fervency and the hope to the life and spring via the birds -- to fly and hug the spring wind. I would like the flowers can help me to express the wind and also show their beauty. However, I did not recover totally from the operation when I was painting it, that is why, I could not paint for a long time as usual. I could only paint 5 minutes at the first and I had to stop for the pain...Anyway, I finally completed it even though I do not think that I painted many details as good as I had hoped... I am sorry for that... :-)
