The upper one is a work made when I was in primary school in China. It was copied from the text book directly. I remember that I draw it just because I have nothing to do. Draw it with a pure heart without thinking too much on how to beautify it. When I analysis it with today's eye, it is a stylist, 2D, flat artwork. The detail is precisely outlined.
The bottom one is my re-invented work base on the left one. Before I draw it out, I ask myself: What should I thinking of when I making this work? Should I try to beautify it to show my very good drawing skill? What media should I use? No Doubt, when we grow up, we think more complicated.
Why can't I re-create it by using a pure heart like a child? After that, I grab my favorite watercolor box and try to draw it. "Oh boy, are you love to run? Just let go of your hand and feet! " "Oh boy, do you want to run like flying? May I add some curves to you? " "How about the background and color? Just fill it up!" I draw it without thinking too much. Undesignedly, I enhance the feel of perspective by drawing an oblique background. In addition, the sense of foreground, middle ground and background were enhanced by adding some shrubs at the back. At that time, I know that when I am not constrained by the design principles but equip it as my day life being, they will come out in my art work.
I find back my passion to draw when I making this art work. Not to block my stroke and hand just because of make it more complete and beautiful. Freedom is the beauty here.
