Appreciation of Qi Baishi's Lotus

This lotus flower is actually a freehand Chinese painting. It shows that the lotus leaves in the pond are yellow in autumn, but the lotus flowers are still emitting fragrance. The whole picture is full, the lotus leaf is big, and the ink contrast is strong. Lotus leaves, lotus flowers, lotus stalks and lotus flowers are naturally interspersed in an orderly manner. The blooming lotus is brightly colored, and there is a green lotus in the middle, which is in sharp contrast with the mature lotus, giving people a feeling of natural beauty.

China traditional painting tools are adopted: brush, ink, traditional Chinese painting pigments and rice paper. The lotus leaf is made of ochre, the lotus is made of rouge and eosin, and the tender lotus in the lotus is green.
