Landscape Chinese Scroll Painting – Silk Wall Art – Snow-Covered Mountains Houses

Here the snow-covered mountains houses theme is set down on silk, in a landscape scroll painting of the traditional school. The ink settles into the silk with a softness that keeps every edge gentle. As a piece of classical chinese artwork, it reads clearly from across the room and keeps giving on closer inspection.

Here the snow-covered mountains takes its place in the composition's larger rhythm. The discipline of wash painting shows in every controlled gradation. With the houses, the scene gains a lived-in quality that rewards slow looking. Soft veils of mist knit the separate elements into one breathing scene. The pine trees adds a quiet accent, handled in the old manner of the brush. The temple adds a quiet accent, handled in the old manner of the brush.

Hung in a study or living room, this ink wash painting changes the room's temperature without raising its voice. It rewards the patient viewer, and patience is what such art teaches. A calm, cultured backdrop for a study, hallway, or quiet corner.
