Question

review the paragraph about the japanese art of ippitsuryu. in the ancient japanese tradition of ippitsuryu, an artist creates a painting of a dragon using an ink wash and brushes. first, a fine brush is used to form the head of the dragon. next, the artist forms the dragons body by twisting and turning a larger brush in one continuous stroke, without raising it from the surface of the page. the artist does not lift the brush from the paper while creating the beasts body. by applying different amounts of pressure and adjusting the position of the brush, the artist creates an impression of fluid motion, as well as a scale-like effect along the length of the creatures body. afterwards, the artist often adds details like whiskers and claws to give the dragon a fierce or fantastical appearance. why should the bolded sentence be removed? it provides information that is redundant. it provides unnecessary personal information.

Explanation:

The sentence "The artist does not lift the brush from the paper while creating the beast's body" repeats the idea that the artist uses a continuous stroke (from "twisting and turning a larger brush in one continuous stroke, without raising it from the surface of the page").

Answer:

It provides information that is redundant.
