Creative Concept

The work is an innovative creation of traditional landscape painting in geometric patterns, not abandoning the tradition, but breaking through and innovating based on tradition. The tone of the brush is casual and gentle, dynamic but not losing its flavour, creating a unique ink and brush weather and mood. In the commonality of tradition and individual characteristics, he has found a way of expression, making his picture show the rhythm of modernity in the simplicity and subtlety of classical subtlety.
The visual centre of the work focuses on the waterfall in the middle of the picture, which looms in the layers of emerald mountains, strikingly heavy and colourful at the same time. The foreground is depicted in countless small geometric patterns, the small block surface enriches the details of the picture, and the use of chapping and painting techniques makes the picture of the mountains, rivers and valleys, the image of the changing scene of the object, each different.
