Chinese Willow art

Drawing the Chinese Willow art was really fun. We had to make sure that we drew every detail that was in the story. The story was about a girl that was called Koong Shee and she was in love with a boy called Chang. Chang was a poor person that had no money, but Koong Shee was a rich wealthy girl. Her father wanted her to marry a rich person, but she refused to marry the wealthy boy that he had chosen for her. She said she didn't wan to marry this person and so her father was very angry. He put her in a small cell near his house. He said that when the blossoms on the cherry tree would bloom Koong Shee would marry this boy. one day a messangar came on a boat with a letter for Koong Shee from Chang. the letter said that chang and Koong Shee should escape to a house and live together. she wrote a letter back saying that she would only escape if Chang would pick her up, so he did. While they were escaping they didn't know that all that time Koong Shee's father had been wathcing them all that time. He quickly got a whip and he hadkilled them with it. Now the Koong Shee and chang have become doves. there re lots of different stories though. In one of them they do escape and live together. Now that our pictures are  finished  you should come and see them on the wall,  they look awesome!!
