淇澳（彩墨）
一个朋友的太太在翻阅过咱们的画册之后，感喟地说：“我觉得画画好难哦。”
画画其实不难。
就先不要说难不难，单在纸上把色墨涂来抹去，翻手云雨的涂抹过程中，画画至少还是很有兴味的，不是吗？画坏了，揉掉，重来。纸、颜料都是自己的，主控权握在自己手中，我们操控主宰画中的一切，不也是痛快淋漓的事吗。
画画，不要给自己压力，快乐的画，把画画当成娱乐，这样就不觉得吃力了。每个人都是“从无到有”、“从不会到会”这样走过来的。拿笔沾墨，展纸染色，画上去再说，不要管它像不像，好不好，画了再说。朋友，把笔拿起来，画了再说。
Qiao Island/ink and color painting
A friend’s wife sighed and said: “I think painting is very hard” after flipping through some albums of my paintings.
Painting is actually not hard at all.
Let’s first not discuss whether it is hard or not. It is plenty of fun to just simply play around with colors and ink on paper. Don’t you agree? You can just throw away a painting if it is bad. Then you can just paint another. The paper and paints are yours, and you have full control of them. Isn’t it incredibly satisfying to have total control over a painting?
You shouldn’t give yourself pressure when you paint. You won’t feel it is difficult as long as you paint with a happy heart and treat painting as an entertainment. Everyone has to start from the beginning, and make the journey from being unable to being able. Eventually you will very naturally dip your brush in the in ink, spread your paper, and apply pigments. You should just go ahead and paint, and don’t mind whether it is good or bad. Just paint.
