Completed Date: 8/9/13
Medium: watercolor and pen & ink
Description: For this architecture assignment, I thought it would be more interesting to choose a piece of architecture that was ancient or ancient looking, especially since I thought that subject and my pre-chosen medium would work well together. I had never tried drawing anything with an Asian theme, so this was the perfect chance. I love the creative, bright, and colorful design of Chinese pagodas, so it was especially fun to work with that design in watercolors.

It’s beautiful , Mamie 😃❤
Thank you, Violet! When I realized I had to paint using watercolors, which I don’t usually paint with, I thought of your wonderful paintings for some inspiration.
Nicely done, 🙂 I must say I do really love the trees.

Thank you so much! I always value your feedback and opinions, Benjamin.
Lovely colourful image. Did you go to a particular location?
I wish I went to China! 🙂 No, I was looking for pictures of architecture online for references. One of my friends was a Fulbright Scholar in China for the past 6 months, though, so I got some inspiration from her stories.
