Ok, I've tried to attempt some plum blossoms with my Chinese brushes. It wasn't the correct paper (didn't absorb well), and was only an envelope that I used to paint on. I however did use the black inkstick and tried to copy some colors with the watercolors I had on hand. I didn't have a seal, but used a stamp that was supposed to be a Chinese coin.
Hopefully this first attempt (after practicing) isn't crummy. I know what I need to do differently and I think with practice and time I will get better.

It's still pretty though.
A brilliant first chinese picture. I love the way I can see the brush strokes and the lovely use of ink. Beautifully relaxed and charming.
I think you did a lovely job, and the coin was a nice touch!
Very pretty!
