Comment by Ningning Li on November 5, 2013 at 2:44: jessica and Ann , I am so happy that we think the same way and totally agree with you and Ann's opinion of suggestions are refferences only. Recently Michael spent time wrote me are very detailed suggestion. I should say a lesson to teach me how to paint. It made my heart shrinked as I was so moved by his generous and kindness to do so. As Jessica mentioned that those knowledgeable and generous people giving us excellent advice, Ann you are one of them too. Thank you again.

But we also know something though not as good as they are. We can help our friends too. But just let them be careful that we may be dangerous to mislead them without knowing it. Take our suggestions as only a view.

Comment by Ann Turner on November 4, 2013 at 20:32: I hope to be helpful with my comments and learn from the constructive comments of others. I also appreciate it when we don't always agree because all views are valid and we each have a variety of knowledge to share. This site is generally positive and I think that is what Richard wants, the artists to "complete" each other by comments and sharing knowledge. So go ahead and paint !

Comment by Jessica Futerman on November 4, 2013 at 19:28: Ni Ningning - yes, for sure I think it's a great idea to help each other with our own paintings - quite a few people already do this! It's really helpful to get input from someone else with a fresh point of view & reading all the comments & discussions is an excellent way to learn. There are a number of generous & kind people in this group who are very knowledgeable & give excellent advice. People often take the time to help each other here, which makes this website special!

Comment by Ningning Li on November 4, 2013 at 9:32: Jessica, Thank you so much for your attention and encouragement from very beginning. I just corrected some minor errors of it and refined and cleaned a bit . Jessica, do you think it is a good idea that apart from we critique each other about the signment of Richard, we help each other for the paintings we are doing by ourselves. I mean, like I am doing now, have some doublt about what I am doing ,upload here andmake a comment to tell people the problems for sugestions. I know everybody are busy for their daily duty. But always somebody have a little time to write some sentences and that will greatly helped us to paint better. I think Richard won't be unhappy about this. Because, when the outsiders drop into this website, they will be so surprised to notice this. Then they would like to join us and Richard will have more student. Jessica, Do you think my reason is sound?

Comment by Jessica Futerman on November 4, 2013 at 4:33: It's really a happy, sunny painting Ningning & I'm sure it will brighten & enhance the conversation around your dining room table! There is so much beautiful light & colour in the shadows too. All your hard work paid off!

Comment by Ningning Li on November 3, 2013 at 16:38: Laura, Thank you. You always encourage me. I appreciate it indeed.

Comment by Manneherrin on November 3, 2013 at 15:57: Remarkable coloring. Fun and fresh colors. I can almost smell the water in the crisp cool air. Light and freeing atmosphere. The green/red and blue/orange color choices are brilliant. The green trees to the far left have perfect amount of detail. I know you will enjoy this painting from years to come. Well done..
