Inference Painting is a series of books that focus on the techniques for painting popular plants and animals that are staples of Chinese artwork. Geared toward beginners, they start by instructing the student on how to draw the subjects piece by piece. Then, each book goes on to contain a section devoted to great paintings of the subjects by multiple master artists.

After going through the book, beginners will be able to use the techniques they learn in the first part of the book to start working on their own myna bird paintings. The books work well for both Sumi-E and Fineline painting. We recommend using the collection at the end of the book as inspiration for the new works you create.
