Although the troubled water was already gone, it left serious damage behind. My house needs a big cleaning and renovation which seems there's no end. Almost all of my watercolors featuring in my dA gallery, including a few canvases and old works from high school, were so damaged that I had to throw them away with sorrow. Fortunately, my tools of the trade are totally safe, so I can make a new start. The world in 2012 is unpredictable. It could be like what happened in the movie "2012", but I'll keep painting anyway.

About These Features
We here at Traditional-Artists (https://www.deviantart.com/traditional-artists) literally get hundreds to thousands of submissions of quality artwork every month, but some of our art submitted we showcase in our weekly journal because it's technically beautiful, interesting or shows some really unique or thoughtful aspect. We've been doing this for a long time now, and one day we just thought - wow, why not share these with ALL of dA? So, here they are.....
