画作欣赏：
“三月三日天气新，长安水边多丽人。态浓意远淑且真，肌理细腻骨肉匀。绫罗衣裳照暮春，蹙金孔雀银麒麟… …”
唐代杨家丽人得宠唐皇，权倾天下，每每出游，阵势瞩目，并成一段历史佳话。
《丽人行》正是彭先诚先生笔下描写杨家丽人春游的瑰丽场景。笔法潇洒淋漓，尽得诗意中的唐代风采。
投资价值：
早在多年前，笔者就对四川画家彭先诚先生十分留意，当时他的作品就以水墨淋漓，灵气逼人而让人留下深刻的印象。其中他的唐代风采题材作品，更是让人击节赞赏。
近十年来，他在艺术上不断寻求新的突破和提升。在保留作品之水墨灵动感的同时，注重在质和神韵方面的深入刻划，同时刻意扩大画面之张力和气派。终于在二十世纪末，完善了自己独特的艺术体系，并成为中国画坛一个旗帜鲜明的艺术流派。他的作品亦成为中外收藏界高度重视的收集对象。
