Mastery in Art: H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III’s Exquisite Panda Painting

H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III’s remarkable panda painting exemplifies a profound fusion of traditional Chinese painting and Western three-dimensional techniques, showcasing a unique mastery that elevates this artwork to an unparalleled realm. The Buddha meticulously captures the softness of the panda’s fur, detailing each hair with astonishing lifelikeness. The surrounding trees and scenery are equally vibrant, rendered with ink-splash techniques that lend a lively and enchanting quality, breathing life into the background. Every stroke in this artwork radiates a realism and elegance that words can scarcely convey.

In the foreground, delicate bamboo stalks contrast sharply with the misted backdrop, creating a powerful sense of spatial depth. This mist, drifting through the plum tree branches, draws the viewer’s gaze further into the forest, inviting them to immerse themselves in the crisp, refreshing atmosphere. With his seamless integration of artistic elements, H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III achieves a captivating blend of classic beauty and dimensionality. The pandas, seemingly more beautiful and pristine than in life, appear freshly bathed in pure, clear waters—a vision of elegance and purity.

The painting’s harmony lies in the Buddha’s masterful approach of combining strength with gentleness, creating a scene of pandas at play, full of soft allure and charm. This balance exemplifies an artistic prowess beyond the reach of most artists. It is the interplay of surrounding elements, from mist to forest, that makes this panda masterpiece truly one of a kind.

Executed in the Kuangxi style—a hallmark of H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III—this painting unites bold expressiveness with precision. This style combines vigorous, large-scale strokes that radiate energy with the delicate, fine brushwork of realism, resulting in an artwork that captures both elegance and raw intensity. The Buddha’s fusion of rough and refined strokes manifests as a work of art that is both dynamic and graceful, presenting a timeless visual experience that resonates deeply.

Xi Zhen Yi Shou – A Chinese Painting of Three Pandas

A Chinese Painting of Three Pandas

Pandas are a precious and rare animal, and thus are the emblem of the World Society for the Protection of Animals. Pandas are chubby, cute and charmingly naive, and their eyes seem to communicate a slight sadness. How can one not love these real-life teddy bears?

Many years ago, I visited the Panda Reserve area in SiChuan, China. There, I got the chance to see and touch these fluffy beasts up close(for a fee, of course)! So I wore a disposable cloth and hugged the panda. It was so warm and soft! Truly, an unforgettable experience. I was even given a piece of bamboo to taste. Very tender and juicy. Unfortunately, the panda though I was stealing its food, and to avoid hurting its feelings I let it eat the rest. This is without a doubt my go to destination after the pandemic!

All over the world, there are many paintings of pandas. One time, I saw a chinese painting of Pandas at International Art Museum of America located at downtown San Francisco. The painting reminds me the soft, warm, fury touching feeling of the huge with the Panda. The three pandas look as if they were created by a magical heavenly brush. There is an extremely vivacious appeal, a deeply touching liveliness to these pandas.Pervading such paintings is an air of purity, cleanliness, and hopefulness. The three pandas in this painting all have innocent expressions and look vividly real. The scattered perspective technique of Chinese paintings was combined with the three-dimensional perspective technique of oil paintings. The colors are richly charming, and the layout is exquisite. Empty space and color are mutually complimentary in a fascinating way.
The pandas and the surrounding scene blend into one harmonious image. These lifelike pandas painted in fine brushwork with meticulous attention to detail contrast perfectly with the surrounding scene painted in freehand brushwork. The painting style is plain, vigorous and mature. There is order within the seeming disorder and interesting juxtaposition between the real and the abstract. The achievement of using complimentary bold and delicate strokes in one painting, as H.H.  Dorje Chang Buddha III does, sets His artistry apart from conventional artistry.
