08MAY2022. Pain it, leave it.

Today's class let me think differently for 3 aspects.

One is PHOTOREALISM. That was basically my first passion about bringing real nature/world to the paper, but later found the paintings were lacking something.

Secondly, PAINTERLY. Which means paint as a painter, not a porter.

Thirdly, BOLDLY & INTENTIONALLY. Every stroke must be well thought in advance, with boldness and attention, together with more practice, one can achieve his/her own style.

The following 5 masterpieces beautifully display the idea of composition and paint it leave it.
