End of the Day

It's the end of the day, lock the tool shed and ready to leave the barn.

Glassblowing

This is the picture of my friend at the glassblowing workshop. It interests me because of the busy background on the wall and in the room. I try to simplify the background and put more emphasis on the 2 main characters who are working on glassblowing. It's an interesting experience for painting subject like this and I am sure will paint more like this later.

Chinese New Year

It was a shot during the Chinese New Year. The little girl in the midst of burning incense in Shanghai.

Golden prairie

Another hot summer day. Sun shines on the golden dry field. Ha, it's California summer :)

Spring Field

I was experiencing the ways of handling edges and brush strokes to create the space. The green bushes have the harder edges and bigger brush strokes as they are closer to the viewers compare to the distant mountain and hill. This is a good practice and I will try to use it to my future painting.

Spice Market

I was amazed by the night scene outside the Spice Market in Istanbul when I visited there in October. This is my first painting about the night scene. Quite interesting, and I can see there are still a lot of practices down the road.

one Saturday morning

I love the arch bridge, the reflection in the water, and farmer's market happened on the bridge. It was that kind of the moment when everything was perfect :)

into the Nature - 4

Another view of the nature.

Blue Sky

Under the blue sky, everything is beautiful.

Rose Garden

Blooming roses in the summer time!
