Chinese Ink Painting

This is my most recent painting. It is a Chinese painting of grapevines, and it took me 2 sessions (4 hours) to complete. It is very hard to do, because the picture is on Chinese rice paper. You can probably guess that rice paper is made of rice. When you put ink on rice paper, it spreads rapidly, so you have to be careful to touch the paper only lightly.
