Title: I gave each student a piece of paper that I carried from China at Seymour R-II School, MO, USA, Feb 24, 2014
Artist:
Size:
Completed Time: Feb 24, 2014
Remarks:
In 2009, at the first time I made demonstration in the USA, I could not be able to find suitable paper for students, because different Chinese paintings need different paper, so that they had to use the paper for the kitchen and I did not feel the result was ideal. Also, they had no the suitable brushes to work.

So, since 2010, as long as I could, I have been carrying at least two kinds of paper from China for my students. And since 2011, I have been carrying the Chinese brushes for them.

On this photo, I was giving students some Sheng Xuan Paper for their first Chinese Xieyi Paintings.
