Hi Eduardo Sure, Chinese painting rarely painted the backgrounds. We are supposed to leave more whites. The four corners are not supposed to be filled like western paintings. We either filled three corners or just painted one and leave three there. Thank you for your comment. Have good day/evening. Take care.

I like your bird. I don’t remember seeing your backgrounds painted. Trying something different, or was it just for this painting?
