我用水彩画汉字,这样比较容易学
My name is Linda Yi and I'm a writer/illustrator from Georgia, currently based in Brooklyn, NY. I create educational drawings around my own journey of relearning the Chinese language and reconnecting with my cultural heritage.
我的名字是Linda Yi,我是来自乔治亚州的作家/插画家,目前在纽约布鲁克林工作。我围绕着自己重新学习中文和与自己的文化遗产建立联系的旅程,创作了一些具有教育意义的绘画。
Writing and illustrating is (what I hope will be!) my second career. I painted these characters during a pivotal year in my life—one during which I took an intentional look at the Chinese characters that had, up to that point, been a source of frustration and built-up dread (if you've been to a weekend Chinese school... you may know the feeling.)
写作和插画是我的第二职业(我希望会是!)我画汉字是在我生命中关键的一年——在这一年里,我有意识地去看这些汉字,在此之前,它们一直是我沮丧和恐惧的来源(如果你去过一所周末中文学校……你可能知道这种感觉。)
As I researched the meanings behind each of these character paintings, I learned about the secrets and stories shimmering underneath the squiggly characters I’d hated practicing as a kid. These characters—this language I'd held at arm's length—was vibrant and beautiful!
当我研究每一幅人物画背后的含义时,我了解到了这些弯弯曲曲的人物下面闪烁的秘密和故事,这些是我小时候讨厌练习的。这些文字——这门语言,我伸手可及——充满活力,美丽动人!
Whenever I look at these character paintings (which I do every day as I settle down to work), I'm reminded of the beauty behind the Chinese language. If it does the same for you, this print is exclusively available through Kickstarter (linked below)!
每当我看到这些人物画(我每天静下心来工作时都会这样做),我就会想起中文背后的美。如果你也有同样的感受,这个图案可以在Kickstarter上独家获得(链接如下)!
