    Qi Baishi was a Chinese painter. He was born in a farmer's family with a low income and could not continue his education due to weakness and illness. Baishi did not follow a particular style and became famous for his free and personal technique. In fact, his interest in painting began when he saw a Chinese painting tutorial. For a while, he learned the painting style of "Gongbei" from Hugin Yuan. Gongbei is a style of traditional Chinese painting that is very detailed and realistic. Figurative and narrative subjects are usually depicted in this style. Baishi learned how important is the way ink is applied to paper in Chinese painting. "Tan Tan" was his other teacher, from whom he learned landscape painting. After these training courses, Qi Baishi realized that he could do art full-time instead of just aspiring to be a professional artist. His painting subjects included almost everything, including animals, landscapes, human faces, plants, etc. The subjects he chose were in accordance with his life and personality, and this made his works pleasing, many collectors bought the works of this artist. He always and carefully sought to find a subject to create a new work and with his special sensitivity he saw scenes of nature that others did not see. Baishi was also proficient in calligraphy and designing all kinds of seals. In 1953, he became the president of the Chinese Artists Association. He passed away in 1957 in Beijing
