In this painting, Hillside Town of Jiufen, there are no detailed shapes. The fluid white areas refer to cloud and mist, but also appear to be homes, forming a stark contrast with the dark, still mountains in the distance. A balance is ingeniously achieved. We can feel the spaciousness of this hillside town. The layered oil paint texture reveals the peaks and buildings. This is a semi-abstract depiction of the hillside town of Jiufen on a cold winter's night.
