My Painting: Red Cockscomb 鸡冠花

Today I would like to share with you the painting of cockscomb, which looked red, Just like a flame. In China, since its shape is like cockscomb, so called it cockscomb. When I was young, my teachers planted many cockscomb around the parterre in the school, at that time I felt they were like small fans blowing in the wind. When I grew up, I know its implied meaning for its name shares a similar pronunciation with the officer. It means gradually to rise to eminence. So, it is subject which is loved by many people in China.

Now let's start.

红红发髻绿绿袄，昂立花间不会跑。
盛开长夏秋天里，犹似雄鸡欲报晓。

今天给大家分享的是鸡冠花。由于花朵长的像公鸡头顶的鸡冠，故此得名。它很普通，小时候我经常在学校的花坛里看到它们，有着顽强的生命力,应该是很好养的一种花卉。叶子绿油油的，又细又长，花朵是粉红色的，一排排簇立在花坛周围，很漂亮。由于"冠"和"官"的谐音，所以自古以来人们赋予它美好的寓意，象征着步步高升啊、官上加官或者飞黄腾达。总之在国画里它也是大家非常喜爱一个题材。

下面就跟我一起来画画吧。
