My Chinese fish painting, about 14" x 20"
Today we started a new Chinese painting using shuan paper and chinese paints. It took all day to do this painting, with demos in between us painting. Everyone was doing this fish painting but of course they all came out totally different. Watching Lian paint his demo is like watching a magician, he does it so easily and you see the underwater scene develop before your eyes with some very simple techniques. Like all masters, he makes it look easy!
Lian signs books with original paintings on the inside front cover.
You can bring one of his books you already own or buy one from him and he'll do a painting for you. Notice how he's holding his brush, far up the handle using a light hold. I think that's one of the keys to painting loose and fast.
