Fine Line Painting is a Chinese painting technique that uses only ink outlines to depict subjects without color, focusing on capturing their essence with simple, precise lines. It also refers to a literary style that employs plain, unembellished language to describe scenes or characters, prioritizing clarity and simplicity over ornate expression. In both art and literature, Fine Line Painting emphasizes the essence of the subject, stripped of excess.
