The tung trees in the picture are represented by large freehand brushwork with splashed ink and colored paintings. The brush used on the tree trunk is bold and unconstrained, with natural white space left between the strokes, forming a highlight and enhancing the three-dimensional effect of the branches. The leaves are directly formed by a large amount of touch and dye filled with lake blue and ink, which are both independent and connected to each other, integrating with the ink taste, showing a misty effect of water vapor and enriching the sense of spatial hierarchy. The author accurately outlines a horse eating grass under a tree with concise and concise lines, with a vigorous and graceful image. The horse’s body is rendered in ochre, and the muscular tissue of the horse as it bends down is tinged with white space and changes in the depth of the color blocks. This shows the author’s solid sketching skills with tangible and divine strokes.
