Zhang Daqian is good at figures, landscapes and flowers. His characters are meticulous and pleasing to the eye. The former has smooth lines and rich and elegant colors. He writes mostly about ladies, literati and Buddhist figures, and also simply draws figures. His landscape paintings were devoted to traditional learning and learning from nature before the age of 60; At the age of 60 ~ 70, after 65,438+00 years of exploration, he poured color into splashing ink and sketching, creating a magnificent new look. The process is roughly as follows: first, sketch the shape with an ink pen, then mount a layer of paper (or mount the painting on paper), and then splash ink for coloring. Its throwing method is similar to the automatic technique of modern western painting, which draws on paper or drawing board by hand, so that the ink color flows naturally, forming some accidental effect, adding water or adding color by feeling, or supplementing houses, foothills, branches or people with pens, resulting in a semi-abstract realm and emotional appeal of ink color. Zhang Daqian's painting art combines literati painting and literati painting, palace painting and folk art in one furnace, and has reached the position of "accepting all the strengths and being rich in the two schools of North and South".
