In the creative process, from observing life, studying the subject, collecting materials to the expression of form, there are unique aspects. When shaping images, attention is generally focused on the structural points of the object itself, with modeling primarily based on lines, emphasizing brushwork, ink usage, and composition. The composition is not limited by time or space, nor constrained by linear perspective, offering great flexibility in handling space, with the use of blank space being particularly distinctive. Chinese painting emphasizes the perfect combination of poetry, calligraphy, painting, and seals.
