Qi Baishi was greatly influenced by Chen Shiceng in painting art, and he also learned from Wu Changshuo. He specializes in flowers and birds, and his pen is full of ink. But drawing insects is meticulous and extremely fine. He also praised Xu Wei, Zhu Da, Shi Tao and Jin Nong. Shrimp, crab, cicada, butterfly, fish, bird and ink are especially vivid, full of the vitality of nature. Landscape composition is unique and unconventional, full of creative spirit, unique seal cutting and outstanding calligraphy, which is well known to everyone. Qi Baishi's paintings are against unrealistic dreams. He often pays attention to the characteristics of flowers, birds, insects and fish and imitates their spirit. He once said: To draw a picture of all kinds of insects, to draw a picture of all kinds of birds, you must draw your own face.
His works range from "Jane" to "Jane" and from "clumsy" to "thick", especially his landscape paintings, which are surprisingly novel, impermanent and legal in composition, seemingly plain, magnificent, pure and beautiful in style. Between similarity and dissimilarity, whether light or heavy, or explicit or implicit, the essence of mountains and waters is displayed. In the process of opening and closing, we see delicate, simple kindness and optimistic firmness. In the landscape paintings of the old man Baishi, every stroke seems to contain the earthy flavor of his hometown, and every line seems to condense the dew of nature, which is fresh, colorful, profound and popular.
