Another Ink Master - Mi Fei

 ANOTHER INK MASTER - MI FEI

#mifei #ink #inktober #Chinesepainting

Why is this special?


It seems quite simple doesnt it to modern eyes used to seeing pointillist techniques in both Asian and Western painting but MI FEI was one of the first if not the first Chinese painters to use this technique of black ink and textures built up using dots not strokes! While other painters were suing minimalist sweeps of the brush Mi Fei concentrated on texture while still creating traditional S curve compositions using "empty" space and voids.
