This is my 41st Combined Paintingthat I created for Chinese Classical Poetry, andmy 529 painting since 2003.Also, it is the 60th(87th) painting (practice) that I have done in 2010.

September is an important time for Chinese people. Because, there are many important days in this month -- a Chinese Mid-autumn Festival will be on Setember 22; a Chinese Teacher's Day on September 10; all of the schools started their new term in September, too.

For me, it is important for I had became an abroad student on my birthday in September, then an art student on the same day. They have changed and and will offer me a totally new and more meaningful life.

So, even though I just had an operation for 12 days, it was a little bit difficult for me to stand for a long time and to sing and paint, at the important time, I would still like to express my endless appreciated heart to my teachers, professors, bosses, colleagues, classmates, friends and family members around of me and in the far away places with a Chinese classical poem and the music, paintings and comments that I have created, sung and recorded for you.

I do hope that my paintings, singing,recording and all of the effort will bring you a big smile and a comfort. I do hope that someday in the near future, you will be proud of me as your student, employee, colleague, classmate, friend and family member...

Meanwhile, I also hope that my continuous effort will be some help with you to learn Chinese culture, language and arts...


MAIN MEANING OF THE POEM:

Green mountains are green and indistinct,
the water is blue rivers are flowing far away.
The fall ends in Jiangnan, the grass is not white/yellow.
Twenty-four bridge in the bright moonlight,
where are you teaching people blowing flute?

CHINESE CHARACTER AND PRONUNCIATION

寄扬州韩绰判官--Ji Yangzhou Haichuo Paiguang

杜牧 -- Du Mu

青山隐隐水迢迢--qīngshān yǐnyǐn shuǐ tiáotiáo,
秋尽江南草未凋--qīujìn jiāngnán cǎo wèi diāo。
二十四桥明月夜--ěrshísì qiáo míngyuè yè,
玉人何处教吹箫--yùrén héchù jiào chuīxiāo。
