A Touch of Asian

Recently I obtained several books on using the Asian painting style.  I have found the simplicity of colour, and the delicate paintings of the Asian style quite intriguing, and have tried incorporating it into some small studies, which I have included here for interest.  I have been painting flowers, landscapes, grasses, fruits and birds, and have totally enjoyed doing it.  Here are some examples, done in acrylic on canvas. Apologies for the quality, because I took the photos through the glass frames, as I was heading to the market with them.  I have found that they are just the right size to paint for a reasonable price.
