我用水彩畫漢字，這樣比較容易學(xué)

My name is Linda Yi and I'm a writer/illustrator from Georgia, currently based in Brooklyn, NY. I create educational drawings around my own journey of relearning the Chinese language and reconnecting with my cultural heritage.

我的名字是Linda Yi，我是來自喬治亞州的作家/插畫家，目前在紐約布魯克林工作。我圍繞著自己重新學(xué)習(xí)中文和與自己的文化遺產(chǎn)建立聯(lián)系的旅程，創(chuàng)作了一些具有教育意義的繪畫。

Writing and illustrating is (what I hope will be!) my second career. I painted these characters during a pivotal year in my life—one during which I took an intentional look at the Chinese characters that had, up to that point, been a source of frustration and built-up dread (if you've been to a weekend Chinese school... you may know the feeling.)

寫作和插畫是我的第二職業(yè)(我希望會是!)我畫漢字是在我生命中關(guān)鍵的一年——在這一年里，我有意識地去看這些漢字，在此之前，它們一直是我沮喪和恐懼的來源(如果你去過一所周末中文學(xué)校……你可能知道這種感覺。)

As I researched the meanings behind each of these character paintings, I learned about the secrets and stories shimmering underneath the squiggly characters I’d hated practicing as a kid. These characters—this language I'd held at arm's length—was vibrant and beautiful!

當(dāng)我研究每一幅人物畫背后的含義時，我了解到了這些彎彎曲曲的人物下面閃爍的秘密和故事，這些是我小時候討厭練習(xí)的。這些文字——這門語言，我伸手可及——充滿活力，美麗動人!

Whenever I look at these character paintings (which I do every day as I settle down to work), I'm reminded of the beauty behind the Chinese language. If it does the same for you, this print is exclusively available through Kickstarter (linked below)!

每當(dāng)我看到這些人物畫(我每天靜下心來工作時都會這樣做)，我就會想起中文背后的美。如果你也有同樣的感受，這個圖案可以在Kickstarter上獨(dú)家獲得(鏈接如下)!

If successfully funded, this poster will become a reality (and the inaugural print of my home print shop). I have until Dec. 10 to raise the necessary funds, so please chip in below if you appreciate my art!

如果資金籌集成功，這張海報將成為現(xiàn)實(和我的家打印店的就職打印)。我必須在12月10日之前籌集到必要的資金，所以如果你欣賞我的藝術(shù)，請在下面留言!
