Paintings featured

Detailed depiction

The main lotus flower:
The lotus flower stands in the center of the picture, its petals are tinted with titanium white and light rouge gradations, the tips of the petals are slightly curled, and the center of the lotus flower has ochre dots on the golden stamens, which are in harmony with each other, while the half-opened Nymphaea lotus blossoms are shyly leaning on the side, and the petals are outlined in light ink like the light of the moon covering the petals.

Lotus Leaves in Ink:
In the close-up view, the lotus leaves are splashed with ink, with thick ink as the background and light ink breaking through the water; the veins of the leaves are swept with withered brush strokes in burnt ink, and the edges of the ragged areas are naturally mottled; in the distant view, the lotus leaves are haloed with light ink, and are hidden in the mist, as if a breeze is passing through the leaves.

Eyes on the living creatures:
Three frogs are hidden under the leaves and on the rocky shore, one frog chirps with its head held high and its throat slightly bulging, the ochre eye-dotting is like amber; one frog bows its body and wants to leap, the texture of its hind feet is chapped with fine brushes; one frog crouches on the green stone, its dark green back and the moss dots merge into a single body, revealing the natural wildness of the landscape.

Artistic Value

• Inheritance of technique and sublimation of meaning: Inheriting the realism of the Song Dynasty's courtyard-style birds and flowers (such as the petal veins of the lotus flower and the texture of the frog), and integrating the Yuan Dynasty's ink and watercolor writing (such as the smoke in the background) to convey the philosophical meaning of "unity of man and nature" between the ink and the color.
• Condensed expression of cultural symbols: the lotus flower symbolizes purity and honesty, and the frog implies "a good year of rice" and "many children", both of which create auspicious symbols and at the same time show the poetic resonance of the natural ecology.
• Multiple adaptations of space aesthetics: The lotus stems extending vertically and the lotus leaves spreading horizontally form a balanced composition, which is suitable for Chinese-style halls, tea rooms and modern studies, injecting the space with the literary and elegant atmosphere of "hiding fun in silence".

Suitable Scene

• Home meditation: hanging in the living room, study or tea room, the fragrance of the lotus soothes the hustle and bustle, the frogs singing and wild fun light up the quiet, creating a "quiet in the midst of the bustle" of the atmosphere of the elegant home.
• Cultural space: art gallery, national academy, tea house display, ink and humanistic atmosphere complement each other.
• Business Gift: As a corporate gift, it symbolizes "lotus (and) qi generates wealth" and "frog (wa) chirps and prospers", conveying the vision of win-win cooperation.
