Sumi-e painting of purple cherry blossoms in the moon light ()

My wife said that “you can’t really appreciate the art of Sumi-e till you watch someone paint“. So I put this video together to share one of my paintings with you, i hope you enjoy it; it’s the first video of me painting. My calligraphy needs more work, but its supposed to be the Chinese representation of my name “Manuel“, and my stamp means “Life Goes On“, in honor of my late father.
