During my undergraduate studies, I created plein air paintings at a fishing village in Suzhou's Taihu Lake.

 

 I sketched the basic composition using colored pencils and then layered on blocks of color with oil pastels, leaving the outlines of animals and sunlight in white.Then I used a card to scrape off the wax from the paper to achieve the different tones and textures. In the end, I used colored pencils again to add detailed textures like the wood grain, water surface, fishing nets, buildings, and animals.
