It seemed like “ the mind acts upon mind ”, after giving my first lecture, and before we went out of the classroom to have the first class of painting from the nature at the park near the classroom, Mrs. Dong Xiuyun whom had met me in the Jingshan Park April 27 walked into the classroom with some Chinese Roses -- the City Flower of Beijing that she had picked up from her own flower garden.
They would like to welcome me with the beautiful flowers, while they wanted to paint in the classroom first time since there was no much time in the first class and many of them were shy to paint in the public occasion at once. :- )
What a good idea it was! Yes, I said, then they did their first painting from the nature facing the fresh and beautiful Chinese Roses.
