Chun Ni looks at herself in a gentle and soft way, expresses her "view of nature" with simple emotions, and balances the simplicity and tranquility of the heart with the changeable and impetuous nature of the external world. She did not believe in Buddhism, but after she came into contact with the Tang people to write the scriptures, she began to copy the scriptures, and her closeness to the "Buddha-nature" was probably due to this. And this naturally occurring "Buddha-nature" drove her to express her yearning for the realm of self in an authentic formal language. ”

The painting of Chun Ni, a friend, slowly emerges from the heart of the eyes is a kind of quiet and pure one, which allows the viewer to pass through the nothingness of the years, with its clear and clean ethereal realm, and travel by the mind. As Chun Ni herself said: Since the birth of her daughter, the temporary shelving of the pen has allowed herself to settle down and begin to adjust her heart and start again. Today, her attitude towards painting and life has become more determined and calm and gentle.
It is precisely this calm and calm in Chun Ni's heart that has achieved such a quiet and comfortable, elegant and quiet woman, she is natural and fresh, she is still as still as water, she does not quit writing, and the light Zen picture scroll is slowly and slowly, not annoying, not impatient, not sick. Looking at the moving and static goldfish as if it were real, it disturbed a pool of spring water, and instantly returned to silence and nothingness.
As Professor Hua Junzan of the China Academy of Art, Chun Ni's mentor, said: Chun Ni is stubborn and diligent, her love for painting is deeply hidden in her heart, and she strives to take care of the connection between work, family and creation. Squeezed out time to create and complete the series such as "Looking at fish" and "Listening to Flowers".
The characters in the paintings are either looking down, quiet and melancholy, or slightly sad, all coexisting with flowers, grasses, fish and birds. She looks at herself in a gentle and soft way, expressing her "view of nature" with simple emotions.
No desire to see the magic, sit and forget the heart!
