Features: In recent years, the author has published works such as "Zhang Yuan's Paintings," elucidating the relationship between nature and creation. This book, however, summarizes and elevates the importance of sketching, enriching and deepening the spiritual and physical connection between Chinese painting and nature. It fully refutes the views of abstractionism, symbolism, and formulaic theory. With her extensive teaching experience, over four decades of sketching skills, and creative expertise, this book will serve as a new "Jiezi Garden Painting Manual" and a teaching model unprecedented in over a century.
