Offering

This painting is from a picture I took at the Jade Buddha temple in Shanghai. It was placed in one of the altars on the first floor.

I love the result!

Monkey King

Before entering the Peking Opera, we got a chance to see the performers applying their make up. Besides knowing their performances by heart they also need to learn the art of decorating their faces... It was a very cool thing to see... No make up artists here!

Serenity

This is a scene from Shanghai. A quiet place in the house next to the bridge of nine turns. When I photographed it, I knew I had to paint it! Do you feel the calm of the place? A retreat from the noise of the city...

Lotus Blossom

This is a painting of a lotus flower from a picture I took in Shanghai just outside the place where we had a little Chinese calligraphy workshop...
I went back to pastels for this one... I really miss them... But I want to keep concentrating on oil for a while...
