This painting applies consistent pauses and turns in the lines and strokes. The Chinese boneless painting technique in combination with the western style shading illustrates his heroic splendor when slaying demons and monsters. He also creates by interesting contrast compared with the exaggerated body language of the monster he is felling in his left hand. Within, the description of “the wondrous Dharma is spread through the righteous aura of Zhong Kui”, which is in direct response to the concept of using Zhong Kui as the theme for the painting.
