Chinese students in the Alberta Duck Painting Competition achieved outstanding results, winning 95% of the top three places in the 2015 Alberta Junior Duck Duck Oil for Primary and Secondary School Students...
2015 Alberta Junior Duck The duck oil painting award ceremony for primary and secondary school students was held on April 4 (Saturday) in Phoenix. Chinese students performed very well in the competition, winning 95% of the top three places in all awards. Among them, the top three places in the primary and secondary school groups are dominated by Chinese students. This fully demonstrates that Chinese families have mastered the magic weapon of winning the duck mail competition through their great attention to the duck mail competition and their unremitting efforts. Today, the duck mail competition in Alberta has been completely conquered and monopolized by Chinese students.
The enthusiasm of Chinese children in Alberta to actively participate in the duck mail competition has infected several children and parents who are learning painting in Lin Feng Art Studio. Earlier this year, several kids asked to compete.
Judging from the competition’s award-winning works across the United States over the years, the Duck Mail Competition is an extremely exquisite realism painting competition, with various rare and even endangered ducks in North America as the theme, allowing viewers to personally experience the various poses, rich colors and complex and delicate feather shapes of rare ducks. Since the painting level of primary school children is still in the stage of children's painting, such painting requirements have exceeded their painting observation and expression abilities. The extremely realistic duck painting is very difficult for them. After careful consideration, Painter Lin Feng could only choose ducks with single colors and simple shapes for the two primary school students who had been studying painting for several years. He guided the teaching through simple use of colors and concise line drawings, so that they could easily and interestingly complete the entries in one or two classes, and further improve their painting skills.

Group 2 second place, Alyssa Wong, 10 years old
For the three classmates An Ya, a junior high school student, Amy, a high school student, and Meida, who is still in elementary school, painter Lin Feng asked the children to do research on their own and let them choose the ducks they like and know about to create. Lin Feng focused on providing guidance on painting methods and techniques. Faced with only more than a month before the deadline, Painter Lin Feng combined the duck theme chosen by the three students and provided targeted teaching on the image outline, detail description and color application of the work, so that the three children could do their best to complete the competition creation in only four or five classes.

Amy, who won first place in the high school group in the 2014 National Constitution Painting Competition (Constitution) and the National Wildlife Painting Competition (Wildlife), chose Canvasback as her creative theme for this competition. Painter Lin Feng requested his guidance at the highest level of winning the National Junior Duck Competition. Finally, in Amy's work, Canvasback is leisurely and contented in the lake. The surface of the lake is rippling with blue waves, and the movement and stillness are harmonious. The Canvasback looks back and licks its wings with a happy expression, and its white feathers are bathed in the afterglow of the sunset. The details are exquisitely carved and the colors are rich. It is an extremely delicate and beautiful duck stamp work. Although this work only won the state's best work award in this duck mail competition, it still shows Amy's solid painting ability.

At the same time, 12-year-old Meda, who has repeatedly won prizes in many painting competitions across the United States and Alberta, participated in the Duck Post Painting Competition for the first time. Although she failed to win an award in this competition, her work was deftly conceived, with beautiful colors, exquisite feather lines and childlike interest. It also demonstrated Meda's imagination and painting ability.

The number of prizes set up by the Alberta Duck Painting Competition is the largest among all painting competitions. This year, the number of winners is as high as 87, including a total of 36 top three winners and 51 outstanding works awards. Today, the competition has become a duck drawing competition dominated by Chinese students. Although drawing ducks is a way and method to cultivate students' patience and improve drawing skills, many parents and teachers have other opinions.
With the dream of duck mail, Chinese children pursue it tirelessly year after year in this long scroll. Here, we sincerely wish that the Chinese children who love duck stamp paintings will achieve greater success next year.
