This is a recently completed painting based on a package of cabbage seeds found in a village outside of Beijing. The title comes from the brand name of the seeds themselves. Although hard to tell looking at a monitor, the painting is far more fleshy and thick than I usually paint, and the size is far larger than previous work. The girl is, self consciously and awkwardly, breaking past her boundary. Anyway, I'm quite happy with it. Thoughts?

Mom - I like this new word paintistration! Actually, it's based on a strange photoshopped photo from a package of seeds, not an illustration. I will certainly paint you! I have some photos of you and Chad and I when we were all years younger that I'd like to paint from.
Dad - Thanks for your very painterly language! It sounds like the best kind of comments about painting, which usually come from other painters and linger on about the quality of paint, something that happened a lot when my Japanese painter friend came for a visit. PAINTPAINTPAINT.
