ZHANG JING SHENG 3/3 – He painted in layers, alternating the thick and the thin to give his colors a dynamic tension. As you can observe, inside his paintings there are influences from impressionism, but he has his own style. There were also influences from ink painting in that he manipulated the emptiness and fullness, the tinting of colors, the flowing of energy as would an ink painter.
