Raggedy Sparrow Practice 5 / Chinese Brush Painting Birds Animals Flowers

With time on my hands I thought I would try Sparrows again.
These are not as short stroked as Yang O-shi's appear to be. I can only guess, but for now, even being able to see the sparrow on the page before I paint something there is a feat I fight hard to get over.
Painting is not second nature to me though I am told it may be. It's a beautiful pastime and the root of it all wold be nice to think that someone else in Europe saw my efforts and would like to try their hand as well.

Here are Five Sparrows, painted with traditional Chinese paints and paper, brushes and inks. All Chinese, even the mixing bowls are all authentic Chinese porcelain.

@israelirey I know what you mean but I do not know the artform. Sorry!

[KENTOSI]

where do you get your music from? i love watching your paintings, but i also love the accompanying music.

@KENTOSI Hi, I simply found some music collection in an old charity shop on cassette tapes. I transferred them to CD's and use these. They must be from about 1970 maybe the 1080's I dont know. Theyre all in Chinese so I dont know what the names are. ;D

Your drawings are very attractive and the whole artwork completed smoothly.

Pretty good job ^.^

@01xiong10 The music is old from a collection I found in a charity shop. I do not read chinese so I do not know sadly. :(

Well paced video - a beautiful opportunity for me to learn something more of this art, thank you. Very calming too - in part down to your excellent choice of music.

[kasumisman]

P.s. I suck at drawing birds -_-

[yipyip2020yip]

I don't know why my responses to you couldn't appear for my videos on yesterday and today. Something go wrong with my account.
