My giant traditional chinese painting
I spent more than 18 months painting it in his spare time. The painting is 67cm high and 108cm long.

This is what my friends described for me, "In the magnificent painting, water and hills make a delightful contrast, and there is great harmony between human and nature.
Mountains appear high enough to reach the clouds, or as rigid as cliff, or range upon range of hills…
Water appears just like a waterfall falling down from a huge mountain, or like great waves fluctuating, or like a stream rippling…"

Besides asking for a pat on the back, what is your question? You must have a very big studio enabling you to paint pitchers 108m wide, that’s ¾ the length of a football pitch or you are you stretching the imagination ?
