My childish doodle of a fisherman and a wood cutter listening to guqin

My childish doodle of a fisherman and a wood cutter 渔樵 stopping by to listen to an exiled former official 被流放的忠臣 play guqin 古琴 in the wilderness. Lol *smile* Both the Chinese calligraphy couplet and the picture were penned on the Rhodia lined paper notepad with a Sailor brand fude bent nib fountain pen, filled with Montblanc Mystery Black ink.






I have not practiced on guqin for past 2 nights. Played a few long pieces tonight Friday 20 Dec. Drizzling and breezy Singapore night. Fingers tripped over and forgot some parts even though I only missed 2 practice sessions at home... Lol... Practicing on guqin is like rowing a boat upstream... if effort is not put in to row it momentarily, the boat will naturally be swept downstream. Lol
