Title: Shirley's Art Works 896 & Chinese Xieyi 483 & A256 -- Shirley's 295th Assignment of Chinese National Academy of Arts - May 12, 2014
Artist: Shirley Yiping Zhang
Size: 70cm x 43.00cm ( 27.55 inches x 16.92inches)
Completed Time: May 12, 2014
Remarks:
This is my 485Chinese Xieyi Painting and my 895th painting since 2003, the 295th assignment of Chinese National Academy of Arts.

This is the last one of my 14 paintings that I have painted May 8 to May 12.

At the time I basically finished it, I started to " play", so that I painted a big bees with a long leg and two big wings. :-)

Do you know why? I thought of an English word "indistinct". I had used it to translate a line of a classical Chinese Poem and created a piece of Chinese music and painted a painting for it. But, when I met it in an examination to talk how the insect quickly moving their wings, so that they seem like "Indistinct" , I could not think of its meaning at all. :-)

So, with a big smile, I completed my big bee and I made a job, it is an American or Australian bee. :-)

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