There are different ways to draw bamboo, one is colorful and the other is like sugarcane. Both of Qi Baishi's paintings were tragically lost to him.

Calligraphy and painting appeared in China more than 3000 years ago. Calligraphy and painting are tools for literati to eat. Many people who like to collect calligraphy and painting are indispensable, because calligraphy and painting are not only of high value, but also very ornamental. Qi Baishi is a famous master of Chinese painting in the modern history of our country. He is best at painting flowers, plants, fish and insects, and his works generally exceed the value of the younger generation. However, in painting bamboo, Qi Baishi suffered from Waterloo.

Qi Baishi once painted two bamboo paintings, and the bamboo painted by Qi Baishi is also very special. When others draw bamboo, they all pay attention to the joints of bamboo poles, which will show the integrity of bamboo, but Qi Baishi pays attention to bamboo leaves. Qi Baishi thinks that the vivid part of bamboo is bamboo leaves, so this bamboo portrait is naturally interesting. So Qi Baishi's bamboo paintings are full of leaves.

Qi Baishi's two bamboo paintings are colorful. We all know that bamboo is green. When the ancients painted with ink, many works were painted directly with black ink, so it is not surprising that bamboo is black. But have you seen Zizhu? Qi Baishi painted a black bamboo painting and a red bamboo painting. Moreover, Qi Baishi painted bamboo leaves first. His bamboo leaves are much bigger than ordinary bamboo leaves, which makes them feel full of screens. Finally, he painted a bamboo pole, but his painting method was not imitated by ordinary people, which also made Qi Baishi proud for a while.

In contemporary times, there is also a bamboo painter named Wu Guanzhong. Wu Guanzhong is not only a famous painter, but also an art educator, and he has his own collection of books, such as Wu Guanzhong's Art Talk. Wu Guanzhong mainly paints oil paintings, so his portrait of bamboo slips is also an oil painting. Different from Qi Baishi, these two people painted two completely different styles of bamboo, and the colors of the oil paintings were bright. Therefore, Wu Guanzhong's bamboo painting is also a green bamboo painting, but the biggest difference of his bamboo painting is that the picture is full of bamboo poles and the bamboo leaves are pitiful.

Wu Guanzhong painted a sea of bamboo. There are different kinds of green bamboo poles in the painting, such as grass green, lake green and emerald green. Most importantly, such bamboo poles are abstract paintings, which make people look like sugarcane, but such bamboo paintings also create a gradual green sea. Although the bamboo sea in Wu Guanzhong looks like an ocean of sugarcane, this bamboo painting sold for a high price of 43.7 million yuan. Qi Baishi, on the other hand, ushered in Waterloo in this bamboo painting. Together, his two works only sold for 6.5438+0.5898 million yuan.

Take a break: both of Qi Baishi's bamboo paintings were lost to Wu Guanzhong, but art is not measured by money. Of course, some people think that this is because Qi Baishi doesn't like painting bamboo, and Qi Baishi himself said that he doesn't like painting bamboo because it is too straight and boring. I don't know which of these two bamboo painting styles appeals to you more.
