Jade Serpent Painting

The most attractive feature in this painting and what drew me initially is the complementary color arrangement between the emerald greens and the orange browns throughout the visual field and how the whole image is animated with contrapuntal movement of lines, curving in the outlines of the rockface in its surface and the edge of the water, then repeated in the silhouette of the rocks and boulders peeking from the waters to the very whirling water itself.
