No they are having a bird themed livery.... (https://talkairlines.wordpress.com/2016/04/11/talkairlines-china-airlines-reveals-airbus-a350-900xwb-cabin-interiors/) Each of the 14 China Airlines A350-900XWB will be named and decorated after an endemic bird of Taiwan. The first two aircraft will be named “Mikado Pheasant” and “Taiwan Blue Magpie” respectively. Between April 26 and May 20, China Airlines will be inviting the public to vote at www.china-airlines-a350.com.tw, in which each voter chooses 3 from a list of 24 bird species. The top 12 species will be used to name the rest of the A350 fleet.

Thank you for the details, tris06. Are the differences enough to make each aircraft a special work of art ?
Anyhow, I think the part of the livery which is the most tricky to paint is the signature flower on the tail.

twitter.com/ChinaairlinesENA small observation: this aircraft doesn't have the aircraft's registration next to the front door like most/all other China Airlines aircraft have.
