The lightness, transparency and fluidity of the water, the transparency of the color, make the formal structure of the picture composition, the posture of the chapter more likely to produce a rhythmic beauty of music, where the color flows, not only the mottled solemnity of the historical building, but also records the affection of the father and son flashing on the street, the jump of the winter sun, so that the hot land of the Sea school in front of you is violently bumping the teacher and his students. The dreams in the hearts of these outstanding students, the accumulated artistic charm, and the precipitated painting atmosphere lead the trend of the times.

In the interval between sketching, from time to time, passers-by stop, and the warm gaze between the painter and the passerby injects the emotion of that moment into the picture. Between the painter and the viewer, they are facing, fermenting, colliding, and merging.

In recent years, Zhu Kairong has devoted himself to the painting of old buildings, "As an art teacher, leading students to present the beautiful Nanchang Road through the form of watercolor art in the form of local sketching, I was touched by the passion of students' creation, and it was also my original intention to hold the teacher-student exhibition this time."
