He also became known by his designated <br />
- name Shixi </font><font size="-1" color="white" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">石溪 </font><font size="-1" color="white" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">after he became a monk. He also used two literary names, Baitu </font><font size="-1" color="white" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">白突 </font><font size="-1" color="white" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"> and Dianzhu Daoren </font><font size="-1" color="white" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">电住道人</font><font size="-1" color="white" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">. <br />
- He was born in Wuling, which is today's Changde in Hunan Province, but moved to Nanjing later in life <br />
- to become the abbot of a monastery on Niushou Shan (Bull's Head or Oxhead Hill) to the south of the city. <br />
- He is considered to be one of the Four Monk Masters of the Qing Dynasty with Hong Ren, Zhu Da <br />
- and Shi Tao. He was strongly influenced by Wang Meng, a painter who lived in the 1300's <br />
- under the Yuan Dynasty. Kun Can uses a dry brush and broad strokes to create a feeling of solidity <br />
- whiile maintaining the feeling of the foggy mists that often obscure and soften the mountains. <br />
- The scroll dates from the Qing Dynasty, the 18th year of the reign of Emperor Shunzhi, 1661. </font></p>
