The painter Xu Lele is specialized in gongbi ( an intricate realist technique in Chinese painting). Her works were displayed at many exhibitions and received many awards from China and abroad. As one of the most popular female gongbi painters, Xu's style is interesting but full of a sense of beauty. The painting above depicts a scene of five ancient Chinese children celebrating the new year's arrival.
