Yeap I agreed definitely with the U.S. trees👍.
In Chinese painting there was never a light source as they dismissed realism and stuck to a more fun philosophical approach without so many rules, the aim was to tell a story as apposed to depicting a fixed moment in time which was the way the west was starting to approach painting.
