Painted in mid-summer, White Lotus featured a huge lotus leaf<br />
dominating the whole painting. The method of splash ink was<br />
applied at the center, with a careful treatment of adjacent objects,<br />
highlighting the smothering heat of summer. Using the contrast of<br />
bright white petals against the dominant blue colour of its leaves,<br />
the eye is dragged towards the edges, fully utilising the spaces of the<br />
paintings. Same as the previous paintings, the flowers were carefully<br />
depicted to display their different forms, adding character and<br />
vibrancy to the painting.<br />
