I truly hope that the Chinese Olympics are going to be successful. People have been making such a big deal out of it so now it feels that either China will succeed or fail -- there is no middle ground left. China is a traditional country making progressive steps towards modern society, so this painting reminded me of that. First, you have the ancient Chinese ashtray and then you have the new polyethylene coaster. Can they work together? Well, it did for me. :)

This one is absolutely gorgeous - it seems so calm and ancient. They really do work well together. I love the warm luster the whole thing has.
