Qi Baishi painted shrimps through his life's observation, striving to profoundly express the physical and mental characteristics of shrimps. Qi Baishi lived by a pond since childhood and often fished for shrimps. Began to draw shrimp when I was a child; After the age of 40, I copied shrimps painted by painters such as Xu Wei and Li Futang in Ming and Qing Dynasties.
At the age of 63, the shrimps painted by Qi Baishi were very similar, but not "alive" enough, so he raised several long-legged shrimps in a bowl and put them on the drawing. The method of drawing shrimp has also changed, and shrimp has become one of the representative artistic symbols of Qi Baishi.
Qi Baishi's shrimp painting has entered the realm of transformation. In his concise pen and ink, he shows the group of shrimp swimming in the water. The thick arrowhead mushroom and dried shrimp are transparent and light, which shows the maturity of Qi Baishi's painting art in his later years.
