Description
静夜思唐.李白
床前明月光,
疑是地上霜.
举头望明月,
低头思故乡.

This is a gift for a dear old family friend from Edmonton. He helped treat me when I had kidney problems, made me drink nasty smelling Chinese herbal medecine (sweetened by lots and lots of honey), and now I'm all better thanks to him.

I'm glad people are still in touch with those old poems
I wonder if Li Bai was goodlooking.... *weird thought*

I thought of the poem even before clicking large view. Think how much skill the artist has, that this artwork is able to transfer the atmosphere by itself.

I just used the hardish watercolour brush for the little details and the softish watercolour brush for the rest.
eerm, I have it as an oci file, but I'm not sure how to get the event file @_@
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
um, for the event file, go open your .oci file and go to event tab, there will be an option that says "save"
click on that and it'll save you a .oe4 file.
Send meh that file! *____*

eeh..it won't let me. I see the save, but i can't press it. It works if I open a new file though. Strange.
I don't think you want the event file anyway. I sorta switched it to a psd file half way (ahahaah...

I feel so lucky having a Chinese background. I mean, I can actually watch and understand all those awesome Chinese tv shows and speak the same language as 1 billion other ppl

Wow, you're so lucky that your dad is passionate enough to make you study poems (when you were young). I have to bug my parents all the time to teach me this and that.
That's nice how you even remember some! I reckon it's so impressive to be able to recite Chinese poems - they sound so cool.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yeah, my dad can recite like every poem you can name. I like Chinese proverbs too, although I don't really know that many. They keep popping up in adult conversations, and I just nod and smile like I understand XD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Those proverbs and 4-word things...you know what I'm talking about!
That's right...if you don't understand - just smile and nod...and everything's fine.

My dad bought a huge dictionary full of proverbs. So...many...@_@ And they all have their own story behind them. I can't imagine anyone being able to remember them all, but I bet they exist. I think I need to spend a year or two living in china, so I can improve (and i need it desperately)

You dad sounds like the PERFECT Chinese teacher!! 
Thinking of studying abroad in China?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Probably not studying, maybe I'll try teaching English, even though it seems a bit farfetched

That's a great plan!

eeeh, my Chinese ability is just barely good enough for a decent conversation. I stick to the easiest phrases XD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
That's why Chinese series are so helpful
*hugs my videos*

ahah! I learn the most random phrases from those XD My friend's making me watch qing shen shen yu meng meng. It's too easy to get addicted >.<

...I don't know if I know that series!
Do you prefer ancient series or modern ones? ^__^

uuuum, have you heard of huan zhu ge ge? It was super popular a few years ago.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
In cantonese is it 'wan ju gaak gaak'?
I LOVE Journey To The West or 'Sai yau gei'
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yesyes, I think that's it! It was very very very popular when it came out. Anyways, the series I'm watching now has most of the actors from huan ju gaak gaak in it. Do you watch a hong kong made journey to the west, or the one from mainland china? There it's called Xi You Ji ^^
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Is the series you're watching now pretty new?
Yep, I'm talking about the Hong Kong made Journey To The West!

People in China are crazy about it. I swear, they've been replaying the same show for like a decade, or more @_@

That's such a beautiful piece o artwork. I love the grainy feel of it and the faded colours really add to the whole image! The scenary in the background is wonderful as well.

Thank you blissy ^^
I think the textures made the picture a lot better too. It looked very very boring before =_=

Who awesome. I love the overall look of this. The colouring is very nice too

wow this looks awesome...
i love the bg.. really amazing.. ur digital painting's improving like MAD!! u gotta show/explain to me how u did that bg.. looks great, just like a chinese painting :3
love the touch of texture too
some critiques: the hand looks a bit small.. or rather it seems u put little effort compared to like the bg hahahaha~~ and the lines for those uh.. frame windows/doors/ceiling decroations.. w/e hahaha the lineart seems a bit scratchy rofl.. but other than that.. this is great ^^b
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
aaaahh!! You're right, the hand is still too small. eheh, well, vertically it's too long...i forgot to measure it the other way XD nothing escapes you
Yeah, you can so tell I ignored the person, sketch and colouring wise (mr. no face). I wanted more focus on the background (those mountains were so hard to colour right >.< )
hohohoho, you won't believe how scratchy the lattice work is without all the texture and blur to cover it up. This is just a small look into my chaotic world of "inking"!! BAHAHHAHA!! Mr. no face was pretty sketchy too
Come over again and I'll show you my ultra secret technique!! *COUGH* Before you go prancing off to university, we must have another get together
*sniff* we didn't win the contest this year. ah well, I'm still going to D-World, and you're off tanning your hide in hawaii, so it's all good
