Pine and Squirrels

Freehand brushwork with Meticulous painting is a very popular technique in Chinese traditional painting.
I use modern materials to easily express the texture and volume of pine trees. The viscosity of PVA controls the diffusion of pigments. The participation of ink creates layers for the superposition of colours, distance and density. As for the squirrel, I completely use oil painting techniques to delicately depict the texture of the fur. And they glisten under the penetration of sunlight.
