I have been composing a piece of visual music on this canvas. So I name this painting "Spatial Melody". You might be curious what are those tinker thingies and why they are hanging there. I did not arrange this set of still lives myself. I painted this from a photo I took in September when I visited a cloisonné factory in Beijing. The workers hang their parts on the the wall semi randomly. They form beautiful patterns naturally without too much human intentions. I snapped a few images and know I will paint them some day. To be honest with you, I am not a very creative person. I tend to "discover" things rather than "inventing". In other words, I consider the world is all ready perfect. There is no need to create "better" stuff. We only need to do is to remove our ignorance and see better.
I plan to send this piece to 2016 OPA. Please wish me luck.

This is BEAUTIFUL, Qiang!! I love it!!
This is a beautiful painting. Your ability to see and compose what you see is a form of creativity. It's all about our perception and you have rendered this composition beautifully. Good luck with 2016 OPA.
A real winner, Qiang. Much better than just another arranged, staged, formal still life.
This is one of my favorites! Really brilliant painting!
Good luck with the entry.
This painting is stunning!! It really sings! Best of luck in the show
Like this piece a lot. Hope it wins a prize in the OPA show.
