Features: This book collects works that, through the borrowing and transplantation of techniques from different art disciplines, showcase the artistic charm of Chinese meticulous painting realism. It vividly and perfectly reproduces the natural form of peonies, and transplants this technique into a series of paper-cut facial mask works. Utilizing the strong sense of dimension of appliqué, it presents the charm of Chinese opera facial masks with vibrant colors. Some of these works are fresh and elegant, while others are vivid and exaggerated. For example, the "Orchid" series accurately uses color to convey the noble temperament of "the orchid emerging from the deep valley." The tulip series, with black backgrounds, creates a strong decorative effect through color contrast. "Desert Sunset Glow" boldly employs analogous colors of different intensities, pursuing the artistic conception of light and shadow, and the interplay of reality and illusion. In recent years, the art of silk and brocade appliqué has attracted a large number of enthusiasts, especially middle-aged and elderly friends. Through learning, many people have found friends through painting, expanded their social circles, and escaped loneliness and solitude, achieving "learning in old age, contribution in old age, and joy in old age." This book selects over 100 appliqué works by artists such as Ke Qing, divided into four categories: flowers, animals, figures, and facial masks. It hopes to help everyone broaden their perspectives, learn from each other, and improve together, promoting the traditional art of silk and brocade appliqué to greater heights.
