    Originally a blur, I put it through Lucis Art, Toaz Simplify, and posterize. Found the Chinese symbol for Spring and added it in the corner.

    Terrific composition! I see the exercises made a master out of you :) :)

    Very simple and elegant, and great oriental touch.

    Very nice Jackie! The plant with its segments looks like a pagoda! I like the "chop" also. In Chinese art, the chop weighs heavily upon the composition of the piece. I feel that your chop is a bit large and being black, really tips the composition to the left, but, with your plant feature placed to the right, this seems to balance! I would like to see the chop in red though, as this is more traditional. In my experience, the chop should be red for this type of app. If you wanted to use other caligraphy along with the chop, it should be black. Chops of other colors are not reccommended unless you are aware of what those colors imply (some colors, for example, are for funerals only!). And yes, this will be a tough week for me, but fun!:D
