Capturing the essence of life
“Before you paint a bamboo, let it grow within you. Then, with your brush in hand and your gaze focused, you will see the whole, exact vision appear before you. Seize this vision with your brush strokes, as swiftly as a hunting hawk swoops down on a hare ready to pounce! A moment’s hesitation and the vision vanishes.”
Su Tung-Po, translated by François Cheng, in Souffle-Esprit
