 Jing Hao 荆浩 (c. 855-915) was a landscape artist and theorist of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period in Northern China.  Jing insisted that the type of brushstroke used in a painting must correspond to the inner nature of the object being depicted, for example, rocks must be painted with broad, hard brush strokes, flowers with delicate, thin brush strokes, etc. An artist must strive for harmony between form and spirit.
