Wen Tong (文同) (1018-1079) was an Chinese painting|ancient painter who was, and still is, famous for his ink bamboo pantings.

He could hold two brushes in one hand and paint two different distanced bamboos simultaneously. He did not need to see the bamboo while he painted them because he had seen a lot of them. One Chinese idiom from him goes "there are whole bamboos in his heart" (胸有成竹), meaning that one has a well-thought-out plan in his mind.
