Revered as the founder of modern Chinese art education, Xu Beihong once studied in France and advocated the integration of Western painting techniques into Chinese painting, thereby securing a special place in the history of Chinese painting. However, what shocks is that an educator championing reform of painting education like him has left teaching draft sketches that are typically used by traditional teachers. A collection of contemporary masters, the Xu Beihong's Teaching Draft Sketches is divided into four categories, flowers & fruits, animals, birds, and figures. Each is further segmented into specific painting skills and steps.
