Artist Han Meilin (born 1936) is recognised for his distinct approach to traditional ink and wash painting, bringing a unique sense of character to his animal portraits. 🐾

These pieces illustrate his signature aesthetic, where he balances traditional brushwork with expressive, stylised forms. From the bold ink gradients of the tiger to the soft textures of the dog, Meilin captures their wide-eyed personalities with a modern touch.
