小池
宋 杨万里
泉眼无声惜细流,树阴照水爱晴柔。
小荷才露尖尖角,早有蜻蜓立上头。
This is a special picture based of a poem Xiao Chi (A little Pool) by Yang Wanli for the Asian Pacific Heritage Festival - Art Exhibition. It depicts a beautiful summer’s day where a spring water is quietly creating a streamlet, shadows of trees reflect in the water, several lotus leaves and a lovely dragonfly under the soft sunlight. It forms a lively picture of a little pool, showing a harmonious relationship among things in nature. I wanted to show that thorugh my picture with delicate tones and feelings of relaxation.
I also wanted to use this poem, because it reminded me a lot when I first visited Beijing and I saw blue dragonflies for the very first time. It was really a spectacular sight amongst the Lotus flowers and I remembered how much I enjoyed being there. That is why this picture is close to my heart, and I hope to show everyone the beauty of China within this and the tranquility I felt being there.
Feel free to visit the gallery inworld too, along with many other creatives.
