Title: My Painting 1473 -Baimiao 71- Shirley's 1st Works Since get a MFA - June 3-9,2021
Artist: Shirley Yiping Zhang
Size: 26cm x 57cm (10.23inches x 22.44inches)
Completed Time: June 9, 2021
Remarks:



This is my 1473rd Painting since 2003 and my 71stChinese Bai Mao, also, my 1st art works after finishing my study at Chinese National Academy of Arts.

I passed the oral thesis defense at the Graduate School of Chinese National Academy of Arts on May 18,2021, and then I flew to Wuxi City to visit my father, brother and one of my sisters' family members, and then I flew back home in Shenzhen City which is next to Hong Kong at 3:00am. June 1, 2021.

Then, on the 2nd day, I got the information that all calculates whose papers had passed their thesis defenses have entered the stage of showing to the public. If there is nothing special happening, we, including me will be rewarded degrees in July, and I will get my (MFA) Master degree of Fine Arts after studying for 11 years in Beijing.

That means I have finished my study for 10 years in Chinese National Academy of Arts and for 1 year in China Central Academy of Fine Arts with a MFA, from an amateur becoming a professional artist.

Anyway, I know clearly that a MFA is just a new start on a higher step.

So, with a peaceful heart, I started my new jobs on both: to study and review some courses in the day time for taking an examination for becoming an International Registered Chinese (as 2nd Language )Teacher while painting in the nights, I am still working on my cross-cultural and comprehensive art project.

With this idea, I have drafted this little Maimiao painting and will color it later and also enlarge it as a Dry Ink Painting??

How do you think of it? Do you have any comments about it?

If you have any questions, comments or suggestions, welcome to write to shirley@ebridge.cn. :-)
