This sketch depicts the poetic charm of Huixian Bridge in Xinshi Ancient Town, Deqing, China. Created primarily with realistic techniques, the artwork centers on a small boat passing through the arch of Huixian Bridge. Under summer sunlight, the foreground boat features striking light-and-shadow contrast. Ripples spread across the water where the oar cuts through the surface, infusing the tranquil scene with subtle motion. Guided by the layered perspective of Huixian Bridge, Huixian Pavilion in the distance and the foreground boat form distinct spatial depth. Painted en plein air, this sketch pursues an aged, timeless artistic mood through a balanced interplay of solid and faint tones.
