Ink Orchid (墨蘭)

This painting titled "Ink Orchid" uses ink wash painting techniques to depict the posture of orchids, showcasing their unique charm and elegant temperament. The orchid branches are slender, with long and narrow leaves, and the lines are smooth yet strong, embodying the spirit and style of Chinese ink painting. The inscription beside the painting, "That without thorns, accommodates a thousand fragrances; the sound of autumn is like a thousand pieces of jade," is filled with poetic flair. It highlights the clean, thornless nature of orchids and their ability to attract countless fragrances, while also symbolizing the clear, jade-like sound of the orchid. This not only enhances the artistic feel of the painting but also deepens the admiration for the orchid's characteristics.
