What is Zen flower-and-bird painting?

A leaf is the world, a flower is the Buddha, and a bird is nature. Flowers look at the Buddha, birds look at the heart.

Zen flower-and-bird painting is a flower-and-bird painting in nature, not a flower-and-bird painting. It is the Zen and emotional sublimation and strengthening of the painter's own understanding, and it is a hymn to life and nature. Pure and elegant Zen flowers and birds, although simple in composition, skillfully create a quiet artistic conception and bring a feeling of peace, warmth and tranquility. Let people feel the hundreds of flavors of life between watching pictures and drinking tea, feel the impermanence of life with a normal heart, and pursue the purity and ethereal spirit of "harmony between man and nature". Forget the impetuousness, boredom and sadness of the bustling city in a series of green teas and get rid of things. Don't forget your active mind and return to its true nature without losing its humanity.

Zen flower-and-bird painting is the first choice for hanging paintings in tea rooms. The teahouse is not only a simple place for drinking tea and chatting, but also a meditation room, where people can feel the wisdom of life from a series of teas.
