Dog's Day
 

When CNN used my courtroom sketch days ago, I felt that I'm a lucky dog.

Congratulations SB, I wish you could post a copy of it!

Congralations! What trial was this?

Sketch from memory
 

Thank you, Beth! Admire you, Cynthia!

It was the Rudolph trial. Although I've done over 8,000 sketches, including portrait sketches from pictures of all presidents of the U.S. for 2.5 min. each while I was at the Imperial Palace Museum, but did fewer sketches from memory. As for Beth's wish, I'll post another sketch later.
Please allow me to quote from President of the former Chinese Artists Association Jiang Feng's writing about Dong Chen Sheng, a well-reputed artist, my teacher:

Dear SB,

I just visited your website. Your paintings are lovely, and I especially admire your sense of composition and color. I hope you'll keep posting on this Forum to share your knowledge with all of us.

Figure Skating

Thanks
 

Dear Linda:

I visited your website. Your winning piece is admirable. I'm deeply moved by your kindness. I have learned a lot from SOG-- much obliged to dear Cynthia, whose tireless effort erects a monument, for all of us, and which her name is carved on. While trying to write, I'd like to learn more from you.

Dear Cynthia:
I'll send the sketch of figure skating to you, and a few lines:

Not far from Disney World,
There is a nice lady,
When people pass through her living room,
Always turn back, enjoying the beauty.

'cause she helps to make boys laugh,
'cause she helps to keep girls pretty,
"We all love you Cynthia!"
Sayd momy and dady.

'cause her merry-go-round,
Many artists have a merrier holiday,
Together with Cynthia,
We are building another World after Disney!
;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;)

Dear Mr. Sanden:
I read your book "Successful Portrait Painters" again, and thanks for your teaching. Robert Bruce Williams told me that he studied with you for eight summers.
Also, being a member of NYSOPA, helped me a lot.

Dear Mr. Robert Bruce Williams:
Ten years ago, a week with you worths a of ten year's learning. You deserve a poem, no, you are a poem! Mao described a senior comrade He Shuhen as "a pile of SENTIMENT", Then you are a pile of passion. "We praise the fanatic spirit of warriors!" a slogan on the banner of the army of Soviet Union. Such is the phrase I praise you.

Another Dog Year
 

Back In 1994, a dog year, I ran like a dog.
I had an opportunity to publish my works, some of those were under the direction of Chinese master He Kongde (1925-2003), whom I visited at his final moment.
