I follow the instruction from the artist and used a compass to draw a large circle on my Canson 140 lb cold press watercolor paper. I drew some lines lightly in pencil for the mountains and began the paint using my Winsor Newton Cotman tube paints. I started with the sky (clouds were added into the sky with dabs of a tissue) followed by the mountains in shades of green. The textures were add by crumbled plastic left on the top of the wet paint. I added several birds in shades of dark green and grey. When all was dry I painted vines and leaves coming in from the bottom of the painting.
My adult son liked this painting and said it had an Asian feel. I am very pleased to hear that, I grew up with Asian art and took classes in history and painting!
