This one I painted at the same time as the "young and shy". I found it having quite a different personality and posture. :-)

somewhat on the chinese brush painting or sumie as some call it ( sumi = ink in japanese). I feel that I have enough of the traditional style but also enough of my own style in it. I feel that the results begin to show the style I am searching for. A style where I hopefully do not break the traditional rules too much but also where my figures or birds also get some kind of personality so that the result also has some of the characteristics of cartoons. Time will show. Anyway I really hope you will like this one.
By the way, the red seal mark says "Still learning"

Hi, today I brought lots of the learn japanese kanji signs to work as well as materials. My students really enjoyed having a go at calligraphy.
My daughter came home for a quick visit today too and the sun was shining all day. In other words life has been very good to me today. Here are a few birds on artist trading cards made by using 240g watercolour paper.
From the top there is Flamingo, Parrot and Heron1 and Heron 2,
