This is my 423rd
Chinese Xieyi Painting and
my 813rd painting since 2003, the 201st assignment in Chinese National Academy of Arts.
This is the third time I painted this painting.
First time, the paper was not suitable, so that it has still been hidden in my storeroom.
The second time, I re-painted it in Beijing 1 year ago, and this time, I painted it in Shenzhen.
For its altitude is 245cm (96.45inches), it was difficult to paint at home, my cleaning lady asked her husband to make a special board (200cm x 12cm) that is covered by tin plate inside and then covered a felt on it, then I can attach the paper on it by some magnets.
Then I could paint it by moving the paper a part by a part.
How do you think of this painting? Do you enjoy it?
