Creative themes and style |   My works revolve around the creative concept of  "The land of humanity, People on the land". The people in the painting are people in nature, and the lines, shapes, and colors are close to nature. The nature in the painting is nature in the eyes of humans, existing in interaction with humans.I don’t pursue a series of works with a fixed and continuous style. I hope that the style of the pictures will synchronize with the changes in my life and always remain oscillating. The performance of the work must be in sync with the development of one's own life in order to be Sincere and powerful. Ideas are later.

This portrait Miss Wenwen focuses on a figure’s portrait. Lines outline the contours, and the curly hair forms are flexible, conveying the softness and randomness of the hair. The concise depiction of the facial features captures the expression, and the details of the eyes and lips endow the figure with a vivid sense. In terms of composition, the figure is at the center of the picture, and the light-gray background is simple, highlighting the subject and forming a powerful visual guide.
The use of color is restrained and layered. The skin color is mainly soft warm tones, and the red on the blush and lips adds vividness. The low-saturation colors (such as gray and brown) of the clothing and background create an implicit atmosphere, conforming to the lyrical tone. The painting style combines expressiveness and simplicity. With lines as the bones and colors as the skin, it abandons the tediousness of realism and presents the figure in a generalized way. It is similar to Amedeo Modigliani's approach to portraits—emphasizing the rhythm of lines to shape a unique image, yet carving a new path in terms of color layers and the looseness of brushstrokes. It conveys delicate emotions with concise brushstrokes, capturing the inner temperament of the figure rather than replicating the external reality.
From an in-depth perspective of techniques, the lines that outline the contours and hair undulate and entwine with the shape. For example, the curves of the curly hair have a flowing rhythm, strengthening the soft beauty and serving as the key to shaping. In terms of color, the connection between the skin color, clothing, and background color has subtle ingenuity. The warmth of the skin color forms a color hierarchy with the gray background and brown clothing. The transition is natural, and the body shape is distinguished by subtle color differences. The way of "shaping with color" simplifies the light-shadow stacking of realism but retains the sense of volume. The picture also echoes Chinese aesthetics. It replaces Western realistic brushstrokes with the line logic of ink-wash freehand brushwork. Through changes in the solidity, curvature, and straightness of lines, it conveys the verve of "intention before the brush" in the East, making the image possess both modern expressiveness and the implicit artistic conception of Chinese style.
In terms of painting style, the lines are casual yet full of tension, making the figure close to the real sense of life without losing artistic refinement. Through techniques, the expression and temperament are accurately conveyed, using simplicity to overcome complexity, and excavating rich expressions within a simple framework, allowing viewers to touch the depth of the creator's observation and understanding of the figure through the simple picture.
