Remarks:
This is my 461Chinese Xieyi Painting and my 873rd painting since 2003, the 269th assignment of Chinese National Academy of Arts.
Days ago, Mr. Lu Wenqing 鈥� my tutor of Chinese painting and bird painting said to me that since I had learned from those greatest artists in the Song Dynasty (960锛�1127, the highest peak of Chinese arts, mainly I had learned its Chinese Gongbi flower and bird painting and Xieyi landscapes); the Qing Dynasty (1644 - 1911, the nearest times to now, mainly I had learned its Xieyi flower and bird paintings) and Tang Dynasty (618- 907, mainly I had learned its Chinese Baimiao painting), I should learn something more from the Yuan Dynasty (1271鈥�1368) and the Ming Dynasty (1368锛�1644).
Also another tutor Mr. Sun Qi 鈥� my first tutor at Chinese National Academy of Arts said the similar words to me.
Then in the class of Professor Liu Wanming - the Associate Dean of Chinese Painting College at Chinese National Academy of Arts check my paintings of plum blossoms that I learned to paint from Chu Lu in Ming Dynasty (1368锛�1644). And he told me that Chu Lu learned from Wang Mian in Yuan Dynasty 锛�1271鈥�1368) and he is the best one on plum blossom pinting. So, if I wanted to paint plum blossom, I should learn from Wang Mian directly.
So, I did.
I have worked on this painting for 5 days, got so many inspirations about how to paint the flowers. Also, I have so many feelings about the relationship between Chu Lu and Wang Mian in the two Dynasties. Plus every day, I paint from the nature out of the door and learned from the ancient artists in the classroom. Then I did have so many new comprehensions about how to use my brushes and how to deal with the details.
Then I found, I am painting slowly and slowly. :-)
Maybe you are surprised why I have not signed my name on it. Because during I was painting, a famous classical Chinese poem jumped into my mind. So, I am going to create a piece of music for the poem, translate it, write an article for it. Then to write the translation on the painting and complete a new and comprehensive art work base on the learn from the tradition. :-)
Then I will let you see th detail of this painting in my Vocal, Bilingual Poetry & Painting Series
How do you think of this painting? Do you enjoy it?
