B
Did you hear of leaf painting? It is an amazing and ancient art form in China, with a history of over 2,000 years. It is a magical combination（结合）of nature and creativity, turning ordinary（普通的）leaves into works of art.
Making leaf painting is complex（复杂的）. First, artists have to choose fine leaves carefully from mountains in Yunnan. Then, they say it takes more than 60 steps to make the leaf paintings, like cutting, drying and so on. It takes about two to three months to finish all these steps.
Ding Li, a leaf-painting artist from Hubei, is a great example. He started to learn leaf painting at the age of thirteen. After many years of learning and practice, he opened his own studio（工作室）in his hometown.
During the Qingming Festival, Ding Li painted the famous *Along the River During the Qingming Festival* on ten leaves. He spent more than a year on this work. His leaf paintings are popular around the world.
Leaf painting will keep shining with the efforts of artists like Ding Li.
