In my paintings, ink paintings made me a soft spot for it is the harvest of creative printmaking process of the Smart. While this harvest is not perfect, but it is the results obtained after repeated exploration and practice in the creation.

It is called ink painting, drawing skills and painting because it has both prints printed language is a product of the two are combined. So, call it ink painting.

Ink painting is different from the painting - but it has a lacquer-like effects, flat and smooth; different from the painting - but has a painting like the rich and vigorous, absorbing the techniques of painting paintings; different from the prints - but with prints prints and blade, and independent works, there is no replicable; different from watercolor - has a watercolor-like transparency.

Ink painting also has a delicate color, calm, pure, bright and easy to change color, easy collection of advantages.

Personally, I do not like the repetitive printing of the prints, because the printing process is cumbersome, even in the production of replicative prints up to print no more than three. I like unique paintings, like the depth of the painting like prints broad. Independent works in the creative process, always accompanied by facial of your creative thinking, maintain creative vitality and freshness. To this end, the idea of ​​ink painting both the unity of creation.

Drawing ink painting requires proficiency in the performance of the ink. The completion of each piece of work to go through repeated handling, every color processing from heavy to light, color cover more and more black, in order to keep the color pure and transparent as possible to reduce the force of coverage, ink Bohou to control the color of transparent and opaque. Therefore, only a skilled master the characteristics of the ink in the creation of applications with ease. Materialist dialectics tells us; everything the principal contradiction and the secondary contradictions, and solve things, the principal contradiction, secondary contradictions to be solved. This reason, I am in the process of creative ink paintings, using the "preferred method" to seize the main contradiction, control the overall layout, the use of general practices, a tendency to grasp the big color changes, the other subtle and sophisticated color very good solution. Collect material in order to create, I walked into the living out mingling sketch. South to Wuyuan, north Changbai Mountain. Antique sweet southern town in sharp contrast to the bitter northeast that open space is no different from the original forest, and everywhere he went in person the feeling of every moment touched me, so I created the landscape of north-south style "series works, showing the customs of the North and South. Now, in the dense forest of city building, full of the reinforced concrete high-rise buildings, the pressure of people out of breath, people desire the natural love of rural scenery. I want my work to evoke the protection of the natural love of nature, to make mankind more harmonious with nature. In the process of creation and practice, I am bold use of the performance of the ink painting, bold in practice, efforts to explore the ink painting techniques have matured.

Ink paintings, usually driven by surging love of nature being affected by inner feelings, to the natural landscape theme, but not mechanical copying natural. Edge thinking in the process of painting doodle, always keep the passion of artistic creation, and Smart, not the desired effect, according to an ideal effect to work only with the emotions, emotion poured into the creation of each one works. The soul that can melt a sense of almost burning like a passion, and that is beating in my works. I want to pursue the painting you want to grab readers'''''''' attention, direct access to the power of the human soul, which contains a subjective awareness of the natural characteristics of artistic creativity, thus, the ink painting to maintain their own independent and distinct personality.

Many people have in childhood experience of braving the snow. Remember as a child, whenever the snow is always the first one out to take the rows of footprints, go its own way. The fun that only you can feel. Ink painting is like a blank in the snow, I tried to take the path of a row. Presumably this path in the future become broader and broader, and it will bring us numerous surprises and visual enjoyment.
