In class we were given actual sets of what the Chinese use to create the paintings of bamboo on scrolls. I started out by practicing my stroked with the brush. The first set looked like a long and thick femur bone. The second stroke was a horizontal looking "Z". Lastly, I made these thick strokes that started off going forward, but then I would change its path to backwards. This created little leaves. The result, when all steps are combines, looks like bamboo. I thought this project was fun and interesting to do.
