Appreciation of the lotus and kingfisher paintings

"Lotus Kingfisher Picture" depicts three lotus leaves and a water bird in the lotus pond. The water bird stands on a stone, looking back at the lotus leaf sideways, with a frightened attitude, as if it is ready to fly at any time. Prepare to flee hastily; the image of a lotus flower, a small round lotus grows on the top slender stem, with a round lotus leaf in the middle in a radial shape, and a round of black and large lotus leaves on the left and right hanging down from the diagonal. The lotus petals are faintly visible. In terms of painting methods, for deep lotus leaves, the petals are pressed out with broad strokes and thick ink, while for shallow ones, light ink is used to sweep out the middle. When exposed lotus leaves are exposed, the meridians are outlined with thick brushes. The stems are drawn in seal script, and the petals are circled. Write. The water surface is decorated with stumps, ripples and water birds, highlighting the changes in the space. Although there are only a few strokes in the whole picture, the ink is evident in every stroke, especially the large lotus leaves showing the subtle charm of ink. This is a styling advantage that other flower themes are difficult to possess.
