This freehand or freestyle painting is created with very fast and skillful strokes. One wrong move and all is lost. Dwell too long with the brush on paper, and too much paint soaks in and spreads. It takes many years to master this painting style.

The artist's name is 宋柯 or "Sòng Kē" from near Guilin, China.
