For the third time I used Chinese paper. Still many lines, but I could feel something new after having used different paper, Sho-Hachi's.
So I did some experiment.
I learned in China that there are two big categories in Chinese ink paintings; gongbi which is the one you paint so much in detail with lines and shadows, and, the other one is xieyi which is the one you only paint the important lines to describe rough meanings of the object..... I'm sure you don't understand my English ! Ha ha.
Here are ' bad' examples, though. Gong bi on the right and Xie yi is left. ` My gongbi and xieyi ` !
