Features: During the process of sketching, it is essential to pay attention to the relationships between the main and subordinate elements, as well as the spatial layers in the composition. Use a systematic approach to connect different elements in an orderly manner. Additionally, focus on the posture and dynamic movement, ensuring they align with the natural growth of flowers and plants. When sketching the entire peony plant, emphasize the vibrant and colorful atmosphere of abundant blossoms, avoiding excessive detail in individual petals or leaves. Properly arrange the interplay of branches and the coordination of flowers and leaves to establish the composition's structure. Pay attention to summarizing, selecting, and refining natural forms, such as avoiding overly intricate variations in petals and leaves, as well as discarding unattractive accidental folds and imperfections. For flowers and branches that affect the composition, selectively crop them to create a balanced arrangement. Use techniques like "transplanting flowers and grafting branches" or "piecing together elements" to incorporate appealing flowers and leaves from other plants into the composition. However, such adjustments must adhere to the natural growth patterns of flowers and the principles of aesthetic composition, ensuring no flaws are left visible.
