I'm not a person who loves to go with the flow and doesn't like to draw new ones in order to welcome the new. This year's tiger painting is not entirely because of the Year of the Tiger, I have always liked the feeling of "having a tiger in my heart, sniffing the roses", or maybe more because I liked the fierce and courageous animal of the tiger when I was very young, probably from a young age, I have a feeling, I hope that I can live in harmony with the fierce things. I still have the tiger doll that has accompanied me for nearly thirty years on my bedside, and I still remember the scene when I was eager for my parents to buy me this doll. Until now, I have thought that the universe may be composed of love, compassion, and compassion. Therefore, I look forward to a new ecological balance, where all living beings maintain their relationships with omnipresent love, and even the beasts of the milk and blood can become true benevolent beings.
Although the tiger is fierce, Chinese loves and fears the tiger. This kind of complex feeling is rare among the animals corresponding to the zodiac. Zhen Nai is a tiger with a mixed reputation, and it is not easy to say that I love you. People love the mighty and powerful personality of the tiger, such as "dragon leaping tiger leap", "tiger tiger is angry", "tiger head tiger brain" describes the cuteness of children. And people's shortcomings and negative emotions about tigers are also quite critical. Such as "tiger ass can not be touched", "for the tiger to play", "tigress" and so on.
In fact, the tiger is still a tiger, but people never look at it and judge it from different angles.
With the arrival of the Year of the Tiger, I finally had the opportunity to depict a tiger with different shapes and looks, whether it is integrated into the "taste of life", or please distinguish it by yourself.
This set of tiger series is called "Spring Tiger Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", "Spring Tiger Fierce Tiger Out of the Mountain", "Spring Tiger Tiger Tiger Wind", "Spring Tiger Like a Tiger Adding Wings". The reason why it is named Spring Tiger is because you want to make a flower, you will feel that spring has left you; If you are spring, there is no departure, there will always be flowers. I hope that your life will always be surrounded by flowers, a happy life like a flower, and a blossoming life like a flower. This set of series is accustomed to the past color style, strengthens the use of spring theme color green, as the saying goes, if you want to live a good life, you always have to bring a little green, look forward to this green in the future can bring you hope and good luck.
