Title: Shirley Created Art -- Gouache --0127: Mountains
Artist: Shirley Zhang
Size: 35.5cm x 25.5cm
Completed Time: Saturday, May 11, 2008
Remarks:
This is my 127th Gouache Painting. It is also my 330th painting since 2003 and the 24th painting in 2008.

I like almost every thing in the nature. I not only like the mountains with green trees, flowers and grass, I also like the mountains just with the stone or snow. :-) The former makes me think of the youth and vital force, the power of the life; the later makes me think of the strong, stable and safety, makes me think of the word mature. :-)

I started to paint this picture Saturday night and I continued it at about 6:50am Sunday morning. I wanted to work on it for a while, then to go to my English lesson before 8:30am. But, when I raised my head from the painting, it was over 9:00 am and I had missed my lesson.

I worked on it until 6:30pm except eating a light meal. :-) I do feel that in a picture of mountains have too many things to paint. If I had time, maybe I would be able to paint another 10 days. :-)

How do you think of this picture? Do you like it?

If you have any questions, comments or suggestions, welcom to shirley@ebridge.cn or publish your opinions in Forum . :-)
