This is my 21st Combined Paintingthat I created for Chinese Classical Poetry. It is my 451th painting since 2003
I created 42 Chinese Xieyi paintings and 1 Chinese Gongbi Painting during I was in the US, but, I did not create any integrated art works even though I had bought some music instrument for the job. Anyway, I have not been stopping thinking of this "Project" and I made it as the summary of my painting, music and language learning. I wanted to build my own art style from this kind of creation.
So, as soon as I re-started my Chinese art lesson on Tuesday night, I corrected a Chinese Baimiao Wednsday early morning and Re-created this painting on Friday night.
I created the painting below to match a Chinese classical poem and to help you to understand the meaning of this poem September 9, 2007. My teacher gave me 95 scores to encourage my work at that time. But, 4 days ago ? Oct 13, 2009, when we discussed that whether we should send this painting to a professional company to fix it with the other better works together, both of us said “No”, because we thought it was a little bit mess, the theme is not outstanding.
So, I re-created it Friday night and tried to make its theme clearer.
I re-wrote the Calligraphy, corrected the poem’ comments and music, re-played and re-sang the poem on the weekend.
I do hope to help you to understand the meaning of the poem, the painting and the Chinese culture behind the painting and the poem…

玉人何处教吹箫--yùrén héchù jiào chuīxiāo。
