Final Session

This is to be the last entry in this blog. As such I prepared a piece which I created purely from myself. I used no reference aside from what techniques I remember from studying the book. I call it Black Tree Overlooking the Ocean. Rather grand, no? It could be argued that this painting does not show the technical skill of some other works I've done these past four weeks, but I think that it is simple. Simple is good. One thing I tried to avoid is cluttering the piece with too many details or different objects. One might wish to display everything learned at once, but I believe that is counter-productive. I already showed what I've done before, and now I wanted to do something different. I enjoyed working with sumi, and I think I'll continue working with it sometime in the future.
