Title: My Sketch from Nature-113: Shirley's 74th Assignment in Chinese National Academy of Arts -April 30, 2012
Artist: Shirley Zhang
Size: 41.00cm x 31 (20.05inches x 16.14inches) Pen on Sketchbook
Completed Time: May 2, 2012
Remarks:
This is my 20th sketch from nature since April 7, 2012.

I found the beautiful flowers in the garden days ago, but, I had not time to paint it because I was painting peach blossoms. So, on May 1, I went to paint it three times for about 7 hours in the sunshine. I was so hot under the thick branches of the trees, but, if I sat far away, I would not see clear the details if I sat far away from them. So, I kept completing it endure the hot. I was very tired on my body, I was very happy in my heart for almost all of the classmates who have looked at it, said it was a wonderful painting. :-)

How do you think of this sketch? Do you enjoy it?
