Red Flowers

We had our Arts class this morning as scheduled. The subject of today's class was a type of red flower (Amaryllis, taken from Chinese Brush: Learn to Paint Step by Step by Lucy Wang, Walter Foster Publishing Inc., 2003), and I painted three. They might look similar at first glance, but each has someting that is slightly different from the other.







This fourth one is a combined effort from the rest of the Arts class (me, Linda, and Qiu Ying) and Mrs. Fan, our Arts teacher, as a card for Ling in wishing her a speedy recovery.

Wishing your friend Ling a speedy recovery, I'm sure she will like the card that shows your combine love and efforts! Theh differences between the 3 paintings are indeed hard to spot, I'm guessing that it is based on the style of drawing.

Hi, Joo,

Actually it's not. Free-hand painting being what it is, it is extremely difficult to reproduce an exact replica; hence the minute differences.

Ah, thanks for the explanation dad. Mom's drawings are always beautiful on its own.
