The Program of Orchid Painting in Chinese Painting

China's Formula for Painting Orchids in Pictures;

Flowering stems in leaves,

The flowers spread obliquely.

You can show it all or hide it,

It's natural to have highs and lows.

Thick ink painting leaves faint ink flowers,

Light ink should also have depth.

Dots in thick ink are like writing "mountain".

The contrast between tones is striking.

The grass is green and red, and the flower heads are colored.

Color contrast is obvious.

Ochre dipped in red dot corolla,

Colors are harmonious and natural.

As long as black is well matched,

Painting orchids is elegant but not gaudy.
