Pei-Hsuan at the shore of the pond of heaven.
um... I paint. Sorry I never mentioned that. I just wanted a deviant art account for my nature photography. But I needed something to submit since I can't just come on and update my journal (this isn't a blog) so I submitted a painting I recently did. I got help from someone I work with, for the chinese. I told her what i wanted translated and she found a childrens poem similar to what I wanted to say and showed me how to write the characters. It says something like "there is a beautiful woman by the shore of a river." It is about a person I met this year named Pei-Hsuan. She is so beautiful... I can't begin to describe. Its like when the sky has been cloudy all day and then the sun peaks through - that's like her walking into a room. Some people glow. She has a glow. Maybe its her eyes. Some people have big "innocent" eyes, but I think hers are more... compassionate. Like those statues of Mary. Have you ever seen someone with real joy? Someone who can smile with no darkness behind their eyes? So I painted her at heaven's shore. She brings it to the rest of us who need a taste. Black ink, sumi ink (for mountains), and watercolor (yellow ocher, burnt umber, french ultra-marine, cadmium yellow [for wave crests], Alizarin Crimson, lamb black and I think that's all.) |

the only reason why smart people are labeled as geeks or dorks is because the "norm" of society is to be a jaded idiot
there is at least one thing in everyone's gallery that deserves a fav, it just all depends on how hard you look
