am going to make time to attend art basel at the convention centre w/ erita now 10.5, and try to explain to her what i know very little about, even as erita's latest was complicated in creation, involving pre-crumpled rice paper smoothed out, simple colours, varied shades, and a hair dryer to simulate wind drying but faster

The ink-and wash landscape relied on vivid brushwork and varying degrees of intensity of ink to express the artist's conception of nature, and his own emotions and individuality. ..."
the shading, rock-effect, what is deliberately left out, and the highlighting ...certainly trending to "more complicated"
... in the mean time the planning / execution of her summer show and associated book is coming together
she is writing the descriptives (she placed in 97th percentile in english reading comprehension / essays by standardised testing done for those native speakers one year / grade above her age) and the mounting of paintings are progressing, and now also being scanned by large-format scanners, and onward to brochure / book to benefit some selected animal charity)
all fun
step 1: create
step 2: "biao" (art of mounting) - third-party service
step 3: send off to scan
cheers, j |
