Apprenticeship as a Carpenter: Unable to perform strenuous labor, Qi became an apprentice carpenter, a period that instilled in him practical skills and resourcefulness.
Sparking Interest in Art: While working as a carpenter, he encountered a Chinese painting manual, which ignited his passion for art, particularly the depiction of animals, insects, and plants.
Early Studies: He initially studied the *Manual of the Mustard Seed Garden*, using performers, especially opera artists, as models to hone his skills. Later, he broadened his subject matter to include anyone willing to pose.
