Features: Chinese painting uses brush and ink and Xuan paper as tools, similar to calligraphy, emphasizing brushwork.

This book is one of "Techniques of Famous Chinese Painters," featuring a rich variety of flowers and birds with diverse forms, progressing from simple to complex, helping painting and calligraphy enthusiasts grasp shapes and master brushwork. This book collects Zhang Keshen's freehand flowers and birds paintings, providing great help for painting and calligraphy enthusiasts learning freehand flowers and birds painting.
