She achieved wide recognition for her mastery of the art, and distilled her knowledge in this book, providing "stroke-by-stroke instruction needed by those who have had no art training of any kind." The book starts at the very beginning, explaining the tools of the art, and the basic strokes and writing of Chinese characters, before moving Oil to demonstrate the use of these strokes to represent trees, flowers, boats, rocks, insects, birds and so on. These elements are then combined to produce finished Chinese paintings, "the kind of pleasing and satisfying pictures that thousands of amateurs have been producing in China for centuries." The book also contains a chapter on the mounting process, a valuable bibliography and an index Enhanced with hundreds of illustrations, including 36 in full color. this handsome volume will be air attractive addition to any library, and an invaluable guide to an art that once Ism ned will bring satisfaction throughout the artist's lifetime.
