The painting doesn't look bad at all! The shading looks just right
The characters, though, are a bit off Excuse me for being anal; I am Chinese after all

Nice painting. I've never actually been inside a bamboo grove before, but from what I've seen it's very pretty.

Chinese brushing painting Mo-shui is much harder than it looks! I want to learn the traditional techniques myself. But I think I'd rather learn from a master, then by myself, because if I do, I'll probably break all the rules (believe me, there are many! >< And I dont' want to make just a western immitation. xD

Me neither ... I doubt anyone in my family's learn the art form -_- Which suuuucks, 'cause they're the only Chinese relation I have! (from my mom's side atleast xD)
