New series - "Symbols of China"


I downloaded the Adobe Illustrator program in Creative Suite 4 and I joined an online forum to learn how to do the vector diagrams, all to no avail - the jargon and the degree of difficulty was just too much for me! So for now I am just completing these designs "Symbols of China" as paintings and I will learn how to "vectorise" them at some later date. Maybe when I go back to Australia I can do a course that will explain it all to me!

This painting is inspired by the Chinese Opera Masks that you see all over China. Once completed I looked at it and thought they could be masks from many cultures, but I do think they have a distinctly Chinese "feel".
