Title: Shirley Created Art 453 -- Chinese Bai Miao--033: Affectionateness
Artist: Shirley Zhang
Size: 25cm x 35cm (9.85.inches x 13.78inches) on Silk
Completed Time: Thursday,Oct 29, 2009
Remarks:
This is my 453rd Painting since 2003 and the 33rd Chinese Bai Mao.


I drafted it on the airplanes from Shenzhen to Wuxi and from Wuxi to Shenzhen with a pen in my sketchbook on Friday and Sunday evenings while on the flights.

Then, I painted it with Chinese ink on a piece of paper as soon as I reached home on Sunday night. I was not satisfied with the result, so I painted it a third time on a piece of silk on Monday evening.

I had too many feelings when I was on the airplane. I was worried about my mother's cancer and even more worried about my father's sudden illness. I wanted to do something for both of them, so I created this painting.

This is the first time I have created a Chinese Baimiao three times. Then I colored it over three nights and four noons during my lunch breaks.

I truly hope that my parents will enjoy it and that it brings you a beautiful feeling.
