My painting: Persimmon 事事如意

When I lived in Beijing, there was a big persimmon in our yard, which we rented, my friends and I liked that place very much. Every autumn, those persimmons were ripe with bright red color, looked like many small lanterns hanging in the tree. It not only please us by its appearance, but also its fresh pulp, juicy, sweet and cool.
And it has a good name, “Shizi”, many Chinese painters love to draw it. Furthermore, in Chinese paintings, it has some good implications, such as "hope everything goes your way", "may all you wishes come true" etc.. Today is third day in the first month of the lunar year, I would like to share with you the painting , and hope everything goes your way.

当年在北京住的时候，房东院子里有一棵大大的柿子树，我和小伙伴们立刻就喜欢上了那里。每年秋天，柿子成熟了，亮亮的橙红色，就像一盏盏小红灯笼高高的挂在枝头上。它不仅以外表取悦于世人，吃之，肉厚饱满，汁多，甘甜清凉。

而它又有一个极好听的名字，自然也是十分入画的。它是古代现代很多画家所喜爱的题材之一。柿子在国画中所代表美好寓意也很多，比如事事如意，事事平安，红红火火啊等等。今天大年初三，画一幅柿子图，祝大家诸事顺意！
