Features: In recent years, our press has published "Bird and Flower Painting Spectrum," "Hundred Paintings by Famous Artists" (Bird and Flower) (Mountain and Water) (Figure), "Small Paintings by Famous Chinese Painters" (Mountain and Water) (Bird and Flower) (Figure), "Decomposition Illustration Dictionary of Chinese Bird and Flower Painting Techniques," and "Decomposition Illustration Dictionary of Chinese Mountain and Water Painting Techniques" series, which have been widely praised and recognized by all sectors of society. In response to the requests of a broad readership, we have collected works created and copied by renowned mountain and water painters, figure painters, and bird and flower painters over the years in the process of learning Chinese painting, and compiled them into a series. This series consists of "Chinese Figure Painting: Copying and Creation," "Chinese Mountain and Water Painting: Copying and Creation" (Volume 1 and 2), and "Chinese Bird and Flower Painting: Copying and Creation" (Volume 1 and 2). Each volume collects over 250 works, including large freehand, small freehand, and meticulous brushwork. The works fully demonstrate the profound painting skills and outstanding artistic attainments of the painters. They not only allow readers to fully understand the artistic style of each painter but also provide deeper insights into the process of each painter's learning and the formation of their artistic style. We hope this series will become a trusted guide and companion for all art enthusiasts.
