This photo taken in year of 2007 when i exhibited in a Chinese Art Group Exhibition in Toronto...i like to do oil paintng, but it take a long while to finished one and also the smell of the paint seems affect my eye ( even though now aday the oil painting materials is much comfortable and safe but may be it is in my mind )so i did not do oil painting often, most of my subject is landscape and flowers...... this painting sold in 2012....the idea of doing this painting is from a Maple Leave Tour Trip that i did in the late 80's ...from that moment on i plan to do a series of oil paintng about maple but so far only did two.... ( ps..the two paintings besides me is not my paintngs, it is from two other artists )
