First of all, I did this artwork because of my nation--China. I study abroad but I really miss my country and Chinese culture, it means a lot to me, so I did this project. This word means dragon in Chinese. You must wonder why it's dragon, cause since thousands years ago, Chinese people called themselves "the generation of dragon". And the below four words also means that.
This word symbolize "lucky" and a holy power at the same time, it symbolize the new year with family for me cause when we have a new year people would put paper-cut on their windows with this word. And the texture is abstract, cause I change half of the word to the shape of two dragons.The value is crossing-hating and shade. And there is only ink, which is black color, so it's black color palette. And the element, form is asymmetrical, cause it's a strange word, it's also a two-dimensional work. And the type of line it's tortuous and thick, it doesn't actually have their directions, Chinese ink-wringing is a way of expressing feelings, it absolutely depends on the feeling of artists, it can be thin or thick anytime.
And I only use ink and pencil to drew. I used pencil to drew the main shape then I use ink and brushes to finished the color of the words. Actually the word don't need to be drawn first, I mostly used the pencil to drew the shape the circle which around the word. The circle made it like a traditional chimes stamp, old Chinese royals used them to make sure
Their identities. I like this work in total.
