Study VI - Answer

Answer -- Yafei Li, ca. 2018

I showed a few recent paintings to my master -- finally. He was amazed. Starting from a few words -- see more, think more, self-study is good, not constrained. Followed by more words -- in terms of Chinese painting, people who have made great achievements, none were graduated from art academies, all of whom are self-taught. What those masters have achieved cannot be reached by college educators.

Last week I got a gift from my master. He carved this Chinese stamp for me last year after knowing I was taking the class. The text on the stamp means FLY, which is my first name. I haven't used it on my paintings because I think I am not ready.

Answer -- Stamp from My Master

P.S. This is the status of art education in China.

Answer -- Art College Entrance Examination in China
