Good Springtime Wind, Soaring High

Art Appreciation

This artwork evokes the simple joys of childhood; a group of children joyfully fly a kite under a bright sky. Their faces are full of delight as they look upwards, their bodies animated with the energy of the moment. The kite itself, a butterfly design, is a delicate counterpoint to the solid structure of the house and the sturdy figures of the children below. A figure watches from the balcony, perhaps reminiscing on times past. The composition leads the eye upwards, from the children, to the kite, and finally to the figure on the balcony; creating a feeling of lightness and aspiration. The artwork has a traditional Chinese ink and wash style, with brushstrokes that have a clear and flowing style.
