I completed it in the garden of my home after I came back from the hospital. When I completed by the plants that I did not know their name, I suddenly felt the beauty of the pan drawing so that I did have an idea to create a group of Chinese Gongbi paintings that are similar with what I have learned to paint in the school. How do you think of this sketch? Do you enjoy it?
