Subject
interpreted in expressive ink‑brush calligraphic style. Flowing, sweeping strokes with clear pressure variation: tapered lift‑offs, bold press‑downs, speed accents; occasional dry‑brush breaks, ink pooling, and feathered edges on textured xuan/rice paper. Graphic simplicity with decisive marks and generous negative space; strong silhouette emphasized. Composition: off‑center focal strokes on the rule of thirds, dynamic diagonal flow, wide breathing margins; Aspect Ratio framing, flat straight‑on view. Technique: mostly wet‑on‑dry with selective wet‑on‑wet blooms and controlled flicks. Lighting: soft raking light from upper left to reveal paper tooth and ink sheen; quiet, airy atmosphere. Palette: deep black ink with diluted gray washes and a restrained accent of Accent Color. Highly tactile, crisp ink edges with soft bleeds.
