happy chinese brush painting time!

had some fun taking one of Nan Rae's classes again CLICK to see the paintings I did today and some sketches)
Also, here's my brush paint gear:

the only abnormal paints are the yellow and one other one (which are actually chinese paints) the others are domestics that produce the same color
... and no, I'm not interested right now in grinding my own ink. :)

This one's my fave from today:

wow thanks! O_O! that makes me feel awesome!

I dont really plan to pursue it professionally, but for my own sake, yes. I really enjoy it. The colors are so vivid and the brushes are so soothing to use. It's great. Nan Rae is really fun to take lessons from too, and her studio is very peaceful and lovely, so it's a nice break for me.

Hi Aimee,

Wow, beautiful brush paintings! I know it's an extremely difficult to master that technique!
