Chinese art

A creative customer ordered these for her mother-in-law who loves Chinese art. I had a lot of fun with these, since they were so different from anything I have done before!
 Lanterns:
 Lotus flowers:

 Fans (my favorite):

 The whole batch. I tried my hand at a pagoda and a Chinese symbol. I am not much of an artist when it comes to free-handing!

 The final touch: olive-green ribbons to tie it all together.
