——Remembering the famous painter Lin Zhiwen
Mr. Lin Zhiwen's involvement and achievements in Danqing art are beyond the reach of ordinary painters, his Danqing method is extensive, the foundation of his skills is solid, and his works are based on gongbi and imagery! Respecting tradition and seeking innovation is an easy road full of difficulties, but it is also a successful road to a new realm! Mr. Lin Zhiwen's success on this road not only shows his profound pen and ink technique and perseverance, but also brings new artistic enlightenment and possibilities to today's painting world!
Mr. Danqing is different from most of the works in the painting world, he does not follow the same style of the pen, but integrates the pen and ink and the meaning of the rhyme, and even complements each other! It can even be said that if there is no addition to the humanistic rhyme, its pen and ink must be tasteless! The rhythm of pen and ink in his painting is very obvious, with the pen vigorous, the burnt ink is rich, the pen can be in harmony with the heart, the ink can be gathered and scattered with the intention, it is really a dry crack autumn wind, and the spring rain is also contained! Moreover, whether it is the virtual reality of the pen or the weight of the ink, Mr. Li has shown a strong poetic interest! The sense of viewing of the picture has thus been sublimated to a higher aesthetic height! Like the creation of heaven and earth, the king and so on are admired and endlessly!
The work is inherited, and the painting world is magnificent. Deep in traditional and ancient rhyme, next to the modern aesthetic! Mr. Mister's landscape works can be natural without showing wild floating, and can also be restrained without being rigid! It can be said that Mr. Lin Zhiwen is the era shaper of landscape art, and he is also a remarkable Danqing master! Like a bright star, shining in the night sky!
