Happy 2010! I opened my mailbox this morning and very excited to see a certificate from the Oil Painters of America. It is my OPA signature membership. Now I am allowed to put OPA after my name. What a wonderful new year gift I received. This is an import milestone. I did this gallery painting on the first day of the new year. I might send this one to this year's OPA national show.
Qiang,

Congratulations, Qiang!
ReplyDeleteI love this one, it's soooo full of light!!
Happy new year to you and happy painting.
Congratulations Qiang. You are such an inspiration! I love the bold color notes in this one, though every painting that you do seems to sing with light. This is well deserving of an award in the OPA show, IMHO.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!
ReplyDeleteThis painting is rich and gorgeous.
After living and painting in Costa Rica and now returning to Texas and settling in Burnet, I have been visiting galleries and admiring artists. I first discovered your work at Riverbend in Marble Falls and then at Insight in Fredricksburg. I was enchanted...actually, blown away. You are truly gifted and I am a super follower of your masterful artwork.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Qiang and Happy New Year! Your discipline between the corporate job and your exquisite paintings and sharing the process is greatly appreciated.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful piece, Qiang. Congratulations on the OPA certificate.
