Chrysanthemum

Description

This is my first try with sumi-e ink painting. I've always loved the aesthetic and its a very poetic genre. This is supposed to be a chrysanthemum, one of the four gentleman. I don't know how accurate it is, it's from memory.

This is a very fall-ish peice because summer is getting too hot :dead:
The "seal" is my fingerprint outlined in red, and has the character for sun in there.

I have a lot to learn so any tips and critiques are appreciated!

Wow, beautiful and simple. :)
I like your seal! It's really unique, and pretty cool. :D
Are you going to make any more paintings like these? I think they'd look great.
