POST WINGS

This work depicts a coastal scene using a blend of light ink and ochre tones, where the wind stirs the sand and the grass lies low. The distant horizon is rendered in a calm blue-gray that captures the breath of the earth and sky. Zhao Erdai does not seek to reproduce but instead conveys spirit through brushwork, showcasing the rhythm of nature with the juxtaposition of dry and moist ink strokes. The blank spaces in the painting flow like air currents, serving both as emptiness and as space for quiet contemplation. This piece embodies his spirit of "painting without effort," where the wind and sand represent not only natural phenomena but also the impermanence of life—strength within softness, movement within stillness, revealing the heart of the universe within simple strokes.
