Speaking of this genius painter surnamed Zhuang, who is only about the same age as me, honestly, anyone who hears about him feels pressured.
Manman concentrated, sketching drafts in her notebook, as the registration deadline for the local fine brushwork painting exhibition was only two months away. The last time she participated in a competition was eight years ago. That last time, she was introduced to the competition by Fen Ximin, but Wen Haoxue and others intervened, not only tarnishing her reputation but also leading to the cancellation of her qualification. Although her reputation was restored later, her interest in competing gradually faded.
In truth, she has a detached personality and was never fond of competing with others. Art, after all, is more about the state of mind. That's why her paintings achieve realms beyond others' reach, drawing the attention of people like Madame Zhao and Old Lady Lin.
