Title: Shirley's Art Works 882 & Chinese Xieyi 471 & A243 -Peacock-- Shirley's 278th Assignment of Chinese National Academy of Arts - April 20, 2014
Artist: Shirley Yiping Zhang
Size: 70cm x 43.00cm ( 27.55 inches x 16.92inches)
Completed Time: April 20, 2014
Remarks:
This is my 470Chinese Xieyi Painting and my 880th painting since 2003, the 277th assignment of Chinese National Academy of Arts.

This is the 7th painting I painted for the albums of paintings of the school.

After I drafted this painting, I wanted to give up it and to paint a painting simple, because I just finished the 6th painting at the noon, Sunday, and the other 3 classmates were waiting me to finish it, then they would work and we must finish the job on Sunday.

Then I told myself: Shirley, never did anything give up halfway, just because it was difficult, you came here to study, so, instead of going back home to have a lunch, I called a restaurant to send some food for me and I continued to work in the classroom.

I was lucky enough the classmates were so nice and patient, Mr. Yu Jun and Mr. Wu Guobiao told me not work in the hurry, they could wait for me...

With so much appreciation to them, tried to calm down myself, I completed this painting. Then, you see the photo, it was taken away before it was dry...

Then, Mr. Wu Guobiao showed me how to complete a painting within 10 minutes. I did have learn so much from my classmate... :-)


How do you think of this painting? Do you enjoy it?
