Tantou New Year Painting is a handmade woodblock new year painting, which is named after its production place-Tantou Town of Longhui County in Hunan Province. With a strong local flavor, the painting is delicate and brightly-colored, with simple yet exaggerated images.

The making of a Tantou New Year Painting goes through over 20 processes including paper selection, paper steaming, glue and kalinite applying, plaster pasting, color matching and finishing touches to the face. The painting is of a unique artistic style. Bold dazzling colors are used, with large blocks of orange, light yellow, ultramarine and emerald green contrasting sharply with one another. The images are simple, exaggerated, especially resembling the real thing in spirit. The special processes give the work a relief painting feel.
