福星

God of Good Luck / God of Good Fortune

This is the god of good luck or the saint of good fortune (his name is literally translated as "good-luck star"). You may see images of this deity during Chinese New Years around the doors and in the homes of traditional Chinese people. You can also display him on your wall with this artwork to bring good fortune to your home or business all year long.

His name is romanized as "Fu Xing" and in the older format "Fu Hsing".

What a red ghost can look like

This wall scroll is discounted because of a very minor red ghost.

If you are wondering, red ghost refers to a red shadow of the artist's red signature stamp. This is sometimes transfer from a previous painting which happens when the artist signs all of his work at the same time and piles up the paintings before the red ink is dry. It's more common than I would like, and it costs me a lot of money - but I am picky about quality, so my loss is your gain.
