Gongbi is a traditional Chinese painting style known for its highly detailed and delicate brushwork. Although originating from different cultures, this art form has a similar look and feel to Ukiyo-e — check out this older post. The Gongbi technique emphasizes precision and uses fine brushes to create intricate, realistic, and often colorful depictions of subjects, usually figures, flowers, birds, and other elements from nature. Gongbi paintings are characterized by their meticulous attention to detail and smooth, polished finish. Artists practicing Gongbi typically start with a careful sketch and then apply layers of color, building up the painting's depth and richness. This style requires a high level of skill and patience, with a focus on beauty and harmony in composition.
