In each of my works, I try my best to capture the natural beauty of cabbage, and express the vitality and vitality of cabbage through simple and smooth brushwork and color.
In order to enhance the artistic effect of the work, I also added elements of grass insects to some of the works. These little creatures complement each other with the cabbage, creating a natural and harmonious atmosphere. The presence of grass insects not only enriches the content of the picture, but also adds a vividness and interest to the work.
In terms of payment, I chose the word "Baicai". This inscription not only echoes the meaning of cabbage, but also adds a cultural connotation to the work. Through this inscription, I hope that the audience can have a deeper understanding of my creative intentions and feel the meaning of wealth and good luck represented by cabbage.
Overall, my freehand paintings of cabbage are my tribute to traditional Chinese culture and my expression of the beauty of nature.
