In the history of modern Chinese painting, Qi Baishi is undoubtedly a towering peak. His works have won widespread acclaim for their unique style and deep cultural connotations. Especially in the depiction of crabs, Qi Baishi is even more unique, and has become a classic for future generations to learn and imitate. So, how to identify the real Qi Baishi crab among the many works submitted to Guardian? Tang Fazhou, a disciple of Qi Liangzhi, president of Qi Baishi Painting and Calligraphy Institute and an expert in Qi Baishi's calligraphy and painting, gave the answer: the key lies in the painting method.
First of all, we need to understand Qi Bai's unique brush and ink technique. Qi Baishi's crab paintings are not only both physical and spiritual, but also full of life. He is good at using alternate shades of ink to express the texture of the crab shell, and he can outline the vivid posture of the crab with just a few brushstrokes. This simple but not simple technique is an important embodiment of Qi Baishi's artistic charm.

Second, pay attention to the overall layout of the picture. Qi Baishi is good at making the picture full of movement and rhythm through clever spatial arrangement. In his paintings of crabs, it is common to see the combination of crabs with other aquatic plants or utensils, and these elements echo each other to form a harmonious and unified picture. As Tang Fazhou said: "Qi Baishi's crabs are not just isolated existences, they seem to swim in the water, lifelike. ”
In addition, the details are also the key to distinguishing the authenticity. Qi Baishi is well aware of the morphological characteristics of crabs, and pays attention to every subtlety when drawing. For example, his depiction of crab claws is extremely detailed, striving to show its hardness and strength; As for the crab legs, the flexible lines are adopted, showing its flexible and free posture. Only by observing these details in depth can we truly appreciate Qi Baishi's artistic skills.

Finally, we focus on the emotional expression behind the painting. Qi Baishi's crab paintings are not only a display of technical excellence, but also contain his love and praise for natural life. Each work is full of his unique life experience and emotional sustenance. It is this sincere emotion that gives his works endless vitality.
In short, it is not easy to identify Qi Baishi's crab paintings, and we need to master the basic skills while feeling the artistic feelings of the master.
