Watching you paint is like a meditation in itself.

That's wonderful ! Really like watching Henry's versions. I'll try to draw follow your tips.That's useful !Thanks a lot.

Very injoyable watching the strokes. Fishes are really dancing in the water!

Nicely done Henry...as always. Thanks

i love ink painting, you have to be so brave to do it and have faith that it will turn out well!

Amazing!

this was wonderful and thank you for the words of wisdom. I am always reading the Tao Te Ching or listening to it in the car. So much that the words have become the fish... ;-) I wonder could you do more videos in this style of painting, it is very inspiring. thanks, btw the silicone paper I got from your site is working beautifully for dry mounting

Thank you for sharing your artwork with us across the world. I love KOI and paint 9 all the time. Is there a idea that painting one fish black gathers the negative out of life? The open, light that is in your painted fish is lovely.

Beautiful

Thanks! Yes, you can wash the water with light blue if you will. The stamp is my name seal.

lovely

beautiful, thank you so much for sharing this :)

absolute beauty, may I ask how you make the scales on the third fish you draw?

very nice flow to the picture

superb.

This is wonderful and I totally want to try it out. out of curiosity; could you put a bit of blue wash on the back, like you did on the butterflies in the iris video to make the rest of the paper look like water? Also, what does the stamp mean?

wow

Excellent

My left ear enjoyed this.

super

+jasmine roxanne raggs Yes, in Chinese painting colors I'd use mineral colors such as vermilion and cinnabar which are opaque.

Will the Sumi ink colours not bleed? on rice paper

The gelatin-based sumi ink on rice paper should not bleed when re-wet, whereas gum arabia based watercolor might bleed when re-wet.

Can we use water colours on rice paper?

Yes, you can but they tend to bleed when wet-mounted. Use dry mounting to avoid bleeding.

Hi Henry, thanks for taking the time to reply. I got that bit it was the name. According to Chinese...the word you said begins with T or D? To me it sounded like Dizan? Very beautiful painting and style. I am now interested in taking up this style of painting. Thanks!

Thanks. It does sound like it

An insight into an old culture. Sadly overtaken by communism. Long may you practise and encourage this art.
