Mi-fa shan-shui (English: Mi-fa shan-shui)

Japanese: 米法山水 - べいほうさんすい（英語表記）Mi-fa shan-shui

A landscape painting style created by the Chinese Northern Song dynasty literati painters Mi Fu and Mi Youren. They are said to have learned it from Dong Yuan's style. The style hides the brush strokes, tilts the brush sideways, and creates multiple dots to express trees and rocky mountains, and is well suited to expressing the humid landscapes of the Jiangnan region. These dots are called Mi dots, and landscape paintings using these dots are called Mi-style landscapes or Mi-style landscapes.

中国，北宋の文人画家米芾 (べいふつ) ，米友仁父子が創始した山水画法。董源 (とうげん) の画法から学んだと伝えられる。筆線を隠し，筆を横に倒して点をいくつも重ねて樹木，岩山を表現する画法で，湿潤な江南の山水の趣を表現するのに適した。この点を米点といい，この米点を用いて描いた山水画を米家山水または米法山水と呼んだ。
