I love the meditativeness of the enfleurage process and the result is always 👌🏽 but every year i forget how i am picking, pulling apart, and tweezering flowers every morning from April to July until my fingers are numb
My copy of The Husky and His White Cat Shizun vol 5 came in the mail yesterday, so I sat under the haitang blossoms while I read it. I can see why Chu Wanning loves these flowers so much and why Mo Ran would have wanted to give his beloved Shizun a branch of them.
I've tried doing landscapes with markers and paint before, but they never turned out 100% satisfactory. I attempted watercolours a few weeks ago, and that turned out even worse! However, I experimented with pastel pencils yesterday, and the results are not horrible. It's far from perfect, but I think pastel was the medium that ended up looking the best. Just a typical greenbelt scene in May. I might end up using this for something in the future.
