DESCRIPTION:

A comprehensive, beautifully illustrated manual, written by a master painter and teacher, is a unique source of inspiration to anyone who wants to learn to paint the Chinese way.

The canons of Western and Chinese painting alike distinguish between formal and spiritual representation, but Chinese painting - mastered by means of traditional sequence of training that confers rhythmic vitality and disciplined control - aspires chiefly to represent the spirit or essence of the chosen subject.

After a brief historical introduction to the art of painting in China, the author describes the equipment needed, the selection of brushes and ink sticks, the execution of the traditional brush strokes, and the methods of applying colour. Wu Yangmu then presents the technique for creating form, texture and mood.

Separate sections are devoted to landscape painting and flower-and-bird painting, showing in detail the methods and appearance of the differing styles. The text is copiously illustrated with examples in black and white as well as colour so that the beginner can develop a genuine appreciation and understanding of the art.
