Twittering Sparrows in Early Spring

Wielding the brush freely and effortlessly, the artist used only a small number of brush strokes to depict this relaxed and delightful motif. Spring is in the air, the sun shines gently, the breezes are pleasant, and branches are sprouting leaves. A group of sparrows perched on branches are enjoying themselves to their hearts’ content. As a poem states, “On a sunny day with light wind, nobody has any cares. This enrapturing scene of nature is for all to enjoy, yet only birds are having fun playing about.” These birds look calm and at ease as they chirp softly and call out loudly. They seem to be heartily singing a light melody. All of this makes for a lovely and peaceful scene that is full of life, leisurely, highly elegant, and deeply absorbing.
