Chen Qiu Ye is my lucky charm!
Li Shi couldn't help but grin in delight.
Originally, he thought he'd have to wait until he went back to Zhaoyang County to finish the remaining thirty lessons, to consolidate the basics before breaking through the beginner level and moving on to the proficient level. However, by following along with his reading and being greatly inspired by Chen Qiu Ye's beauty, he came up with an artwork of high completion that also expressed his own ideas.
"When I made this drawing, I indeed diverged from the previous state of drawing only based on intuition and aesthetic sense, instead I first formed an image in my mind, had subjective contents to express, and then successfully drew them out!"
"This is leaving the 'childish stage' of sketch learning and entering the 'observation stage'!"
"So, I've been promoted!"
With a rise in mood, Li Shi decided to reward Chen Qiu Ye properly.
