It is my 229th
Chinese Xieyi Painting and
my 399th picture since 2003, the 28th picture that I have created in 2009 and the 30th painting in the US.
Wednesday morning, my 4th quiz scored 9/10. The good news made me want to paint. So, I continuously explore how to create a white peony, meanwhile I wanted to try a new way to create the room and branches of the peonies, according to my art text book.
Anyway, I misunderstood the simply words in the book. It just writes “After painting with greet + brown, to cover it with dry ink”. I thought that I should do it after whole of the painting was finished, so that the braches seemed like strange in this painting.
Then I understood that I should do the second job after I created the branches, instead of whole of the painting. I smiled to myself and then, I created the other one with pink “ Warm -- Peonies” and to correct the problem in this painting.
How do you think of this picture? Do you like it?
