Lotus and Dragonfly

Here is the first painting I finished with my Chinese brush painting set (not counting the practice fish which is in my scraps). Granted, since I'm pretty new at this, there are a number of things I can point out that are less than perfect here (particularly that blotchy leaf), but overall I like it a lot.

Took a while to get done since every time I sat down to work on it an interruption would come up...
