When I was painting flowers, I felt that each flower and plant has its own language and personality. Flowers bloom and fall with a poetic feeling. Whether it is the charming and attractive poppy, the lotus that grows out of the mud and is unstained, or the tenacious galsang flower and reed flower, they all speak the language of life. Tell your own story. What I want to paint is not just oil paintings of flowers, figures, animals, landscapes, etc., but I hope to express in the language of painting the various sounds that I see and feel that can express my thoughts. I think silent language is the richest, because it gives us endless space for imagination. Human thoughts are free, and there is no bottom line for the development of art. The beauty and ugliness of art vary depending on each angle of appreciation. Dafen Village
We are moved so many times by the things we see in life. Every time we are moved by things, we will record them in different ways. I am glad that I can use painting to I am constantly learning and consolidating this skill to express my thoughts, hoping to convey the thoughts and language of painting to viewers more clearly. I like traveling and want to leave my footprints in many beautiful places. I want to pick up more beautiful scenery and more wonderful feelings, so that these beautiful things can stay in my paintings and share them with the people who love them. This should be the purpose of my continuous application of different colors and painting methods on the canvas. Art is the natural expression of humanity, and paintings are the product of feelings. The picture effect I want to achieve

"Art The power of art can touch the soul and broaden the mind. ”
Art comes from life and is higher than life. Art creation is always based on our life experience. As an artistic creation, it reflects certain themes, thoughts, and emotions, and the creative themes and emotions come from the accumulation of life. Before any artist creates, he goes through a process of going deep into life, accumulating life, and experiencing life, and selects materials that touch his soul in life for processing and creation. Works that are divorced from the foundation of life and lack profound spiritual experience are lifeless, pretentious and boring.
In addition to the visual factors of shape, light, and color, the language of painting is also a spiritual product on another level. The painting itself also conveys a concept. The language of painting should not only Staying in the exploration of technique and form, it is formed by integrating skills, knowledge, intuition and emotion with materials. Art is the combination of spirit and materiality. As an important category of painting, oil painting simulates the image of objective things through colors, lines and shapes in a two-dimensional space. Among them, oil painting creation is a very important part of the learning process for everyone who is engaged in oil painting. Oil painting creation includes many aspects, such as the source of creation, concept, subject matter, picture composition, color, tool usage, etc. But in the final analysis, I think the most fundamental element is the source and meaning of creation. We take life as the profound source of creation, and creation originates from life and is higher than life. Originating from life requires us to respect the reality of life, respect the experience of life, take life as the origin, and express what we feel; being higher than life requires us to use personal artistic language to express our understanding of life and art in a highly general way, so that We can find truth, goodness and beauty in common and commonplace life.
Artistic creation is the core part of the artistic activities involving human beings. In the long history of human society, artistic activities have begun from the birth, and with the development of human society, numerous art categories have emerged. The creative expression methods of each art are different, but their significance to human beings is universal. Together they express human emotions and social practical functions. Art not only depends on society and individuals, but also has a significant impact on social development and personal life.
Susan Lange said: "Art is the creation of symbolic forms of human emotions." So first of all, artistic creation is the need for human beings to express emotions. It is a way of expression for humans to express their emotions. In works of art, the author's rich emotions are expressed through the reflection of some images and the application of colors.
Life has good times and bad times, successes and failures; there is aggressive fighting spirit and decadent decadence; there are joys and sorrows, and there are joys and sorrows. These various life encounters and emotions are the eternal themes of art. My oil painting creation "Butterfly Rhythm Series" is inspired by my understanding of youth and is also an expression of my understanding of youth. Everyone has their own youth. Youth is the most beautiful and exciting stage in life. Indeed, the most beautiful season of our lives is youth. "Youth is the morning of life, the dawn of the sun, full of purity, fantasy and harmony." Youth is like morning dew, steaming, emitting heat, and radiating dazzling light. Youth is a clear spring, a simple emotion, an unstoppable force, and an extraordinary wisdom. Youth is made of gold and is more valuable than anything else. The feeling that youth brings to us is so beautiful and we want to catch it so much. When it slips away quietly, it always makes people feel so helpless. So people always lament that life is short and youth is short. But I think youth is not just a period of life, it is not just a concept of time, nor is it just red lips and red lips, but a firm will, rich imagination, and full emotions. The connotation of youth is the courage to overcome timidity and the spirit of taking risks. It is an attitude towards life. I want to try to let myself remember this youthful mentality forever through my works. I also hope that people who see the paintings can remember the dreams that their youth brought them through my works.
The two works in the "Butterfly Rhythm Series" are mainly composed of characters and butterflies. The pictures are shrouded in a youthful atmosphere. I want to get rid of the constraints of light and dark on color and give full play to its own influence on people. Emotional and psychological effects pursue bright and exaggerated color stimulation. The fair complexion, clear eyes, and playful movements of the girl in the picture reflect the beauty of youth. I used a simple flat painting method for the background color. The colors are mainly bright colors. The picture pursues the flatness of color. Through The more exaggerated and clear color block levels are used to achieve strong contrast in the picture, create a youthful image, and thoroughly express one's subjective feelings. The butterfly appears in different places in each work as a symbolic symbol. It symbolizes that the journey of youth is not only filled with flowers and sunshine, but also often with storms, trials and baptisms. Not every silkworm chrysalis can break out of the cocoon and become a butterfly, they also have to go through it. Wind and rain, painful struggle, unremitting efforts and then spread out those beautiful wings and fly into the sky. The journey ahead is immeasurable, and the process of crossing is the proof of pursuit.
"Whoever bravely accepts the baptism of the fire of youth will not be afraid of the cold frost of old age." Youth is not only age, but also a spirit and a state of mind. It is a spirit of never giving up and working hard and forging ahead.
