Huang Quan [Huang Ch’üan]
(b AD ?900; d 965). Chinese painter and high official. He was one of the most important bird-and-flower painters and is sometimes regarded as the originator of the ‘boneless’ (mogu) method of painting. This was typified by the use of colours, with or without black ink in graded washes, to build up forms rather than relying on line to delineate them.
