Koizumi Katsuko found a picture of the "Lu'an Cathedral" on her phone and handed it to Gu Tongxiang, explaining,
"Lu'an Cathedral is the most magnificent Gothic structure remaining in France. Mr. Monet once created more than thirty works about this cathedral, painted under different sunlight at dawn, noon, and dusk. The sky's base color varies from blue, yellow to rose. This thunderstorm theme, however, even Mr. Monet hadn't painted."
Koizumi Katsuko stared at the frame in her father's hand, then turned her head to look at the oil painting drying by the door.
She finally could not hold back and spoke.
"It seems like there are only two colors: the white church and the dark sky, yet the colors change subtly everywhere. How is this thundercloud painted? This rolling and flowing feeling, it's as if it's alive. It's painted so well."
Koizumi Katsuko said this to Gu Weijing.
Her father had told her that the biggest flaw in her current works was the lack of emotions.
