The term “finger painting” actually refers to using the hands and fingers dipped in ink to do painting instead of a brush. The index finger is usually used, complemented by the small finger or thumb. In splashed ink, even other fingers or the palm and back of the hand are used. In this work donated by Mr. Lin Tsung-i to the National Palace Museum, a fierce tiger is shown standing sketched by a stream, vigorous and energetic in a powerful manner. The brush and ink are bold and unrestrained in a mature and strong style. Moss dots appear in the background with delicate and lively lichen stones and fine grasses.
