Very lovely painting! Thank you so much for taking the time to film and share it, as well as your experience. I have always wondered if Gong bi style was very time consuming, and it appears that it is!!! Bravo for your excellent results.

did you use a very fine brush for the black out lines because your line work and colouring is excellent

[FuturisticXXL]

yes a very fine brush - i used chinese ink for that. Then i used good quality watercolours for the rest. I used a stretch board so the beautiful artwork wont be wrinkled and creased. :)

amazing painting!

can i ask, what paper did you use? is it the traditional chinese paper because it looks a lot thicker

Wow what beautiful paintings. Even your mistakes look good. I am working on underwater paintings now. It is hard and when mine come out looking as good as your mistakes I will be happy.
