River Gorge

A small work depicting the Yangtse River Gorge   The brushwork emulates that of Fu Baoshi, famous for his "splayed bristle" 散鋒 technique in his brushwork. 乱麻皴。



Towering cliffs,  boat traffic, temples, villages... are characteristic features of the traditional gorge.

(A better copy of the painting is in Google+ as follows)
