Chinese Flower Painting Techniques

Chinese brush painting is the perfect medium for expressing the delicacy of flowers.

In this book, the basic brush strokes and principles of composition are taught through a series of carefully graded exercises, each clearly illustrated.

This guide explains the methods used to paint flowers such as wisteria, poppies and lotus flowers as well as using other elements including foliage and small birds to complete the composition.
