Artist's Comments

watercolor I attempted to do in the Chinese brush painting style. Watercolors and sumi ink with a matte digitally added.

reference is Mountains & Clouds in the instructional book Chinese Brush 2 by Walter Foster art books.

(and trust me, it doesn't look the same... I'm NOT that good yet, as if you couldn't tell ^_^ )

With love, for my friend Mima.

:) Thank you, dear :)

It's definitely fun and relaxing. Makes me happy even if they don't look quite how I try to make them. I'd be stressed beyond belief if my writing came out as differently from what I meant to do as my artwork does ;)

*blush* I haven't been doing them long. This is my third, actually. The first was Kakashi's apartment building from outside and the second was a sunflower to brighten Moiya's day :) I wanted to brighten yours as well, so I'm glad you liked it :) This one seemed fitting.

Thank you. I never even thought that people who weren't already on my friend list here would be looking at my doodlings. I'm just starting, but it's wonderfully relaxing and *does* give a nice sense of accomplishment when they're complete, even when they aren't entirely what I tried to do. It's my third watercolor and I'm excited to be picking things up as I go along :)

wow. You're making me feel good about this, lol. I don't really do a lot of art. I always felt that since I can't really draw people well that I didn't have much artistic talent/ability. But painting (especially this style) seems to work, because the brush does a *lot* of the work for me, and it's sort of minimalist a bit, so the details needed for some other types of more realistic art aren't dragging me down and detracting from things. I'm also learning that maybe I just need practice and to learn the correct way to do things and then even people won't be so difficult.

You should realize that you are very talented and people have already known about it! Be confident and keep painting!!
