This Mongolian girl with her beautiful face and her long ponytail looks really cute. She looks back over her shoulder with a gentle smile. She is like a new branch in spring, full of vigor and hope.

This is one of our favorite prints at artelino. Different from the Japanese printmaking tradition, the depiction of beautiful women is rather rare among modern Chinese printmakers. A pity, we think!

The edition size of this print is only 10. Collectors, what are you waiting for?

The image shows us in an unusual and daring composition a beautiful young lady from an ethic minority of Inner Mongolia in traditional costume. She looks like she is daydreaming with her face up to the sky. Maybe she thinks of her family far away.

The edition size is 8, and the technique is reduction woodblock print.

The artist makes a bit of a joke with this composition. The still life shows the picture of a cow, stapled to the back of a chair. The milk of the cow drops trough a hose into a glass, which stands on the seat together with three oranges and a newspaper.
