Title: My Sketch from Nature-141 - Chinese Roses : Shirley's 272nd Assignment of Chinese National Academy of Arts -April 8, 2014
Artist: Shirley Yiping Zhang
Size: 35.00cm x 44.00cm (14.00 inches x 17.00inches) Pen on Sketchbook
Completed Time: April 8, 2014
Remarks:
This is my 7th pen sketch since March 25, 2014.


I had painted many roses, but, I had not seen any rose's size is similar as a peony. So, when I found the two flowers were so big that I thought of peony.

So, as soon as I complete the painting of cherry-apple tree, I went to paint the Chinese roses.

I went to there 3 times to paint it with a pencil April 4 - 5, 2014. Then today, April 15, I corrected it with a pen.

It was windy when I painted it, so I did not think the shape of the flowers good enough. So, I painted it once more April 9.

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