Jia Guangjian, an ink artist who specializes in the flower-and-bird genre of classical Chinese painting, is well recognized for his mastery with colors. It is a result of his accumulations over time through patient observation of the lives in nature.

Not only does he pay a lot of attention to accurate re-enactment of the scenes before his eyes and the subtle variation of colors in daylight, he is also well-versed in presenting a full composition enriched with details in a neat, orderly manner.
