Fishing in a Mountain Stream is a great painting. I love how this painting tell us a wonderful story. It leads us open view of a deep vista dissolving into distant mist and mountain peaks. The handscrolls are viewed in small sections at a time making the painting more great so you can see each section piece by piece. I also love this painting because you can put some music on and glide through the painting section by section to make the story feel more real. I tried put soft music and some chinese music to see how it worked and it turned out beautiful. You can feel the flow of the painting and how music and a painting can tell a story. This painting makes me think of people going fishing and traveling through this mountains on a journey or many families living in this place where they fish and people that are working. The painting is amazing and gives great detail. What do you think?

  1. I think the simplicity of the line work makes it elegant and leads our eyes to explore the small details that are included. This leads to a wholly enjoyable experience.
