The Magical Worlds of You Si





Chinese artist You Si has truly created some fantastic paintings.
Not only are they gorgeous swirls and loops of color, but where it gets really interesting is his method: he uses an eyedropper to shoot the ink down onto xuan paper, casting intricate and complex jungles of paint and taking the viewer to a garden of colorful delight.

Well . . .






Not that my blogging presence can have been missed much after having neglected this spot for so long (nearly two months, really?), but I really do enjoy posting images I find...
so I jumped on another bandwagon of the internet well-known for just that sort of thing, and am now stuck in a state of pure
t u m b l r a m a.

Yes, it's just so convenient!
Little snapshots are easy-breezy with limited time, so for anyone who might be looking: you can find me on there for small dosages, and keeping this place for longer posts (hopefully forthcoming - one of these days)!
