A new form of expression of ink painting pioneered by the painter Cai Maoyou - ink is divided into thousands of layers. In terms of freehand style, it is between the writing of flowers and calligraphy, and the integration and exploration of these two different ways of "writing" is carried out, and its style breaks through the stylized language of literati freehand flowers and birds, while enriching the traditional pen and ink forms, which are both shaping and writing. Enjoying "A Breath for Life", taking birds and mountain stones as the main body of painting, chrysanthemums and weeds as the scenery background, the painter closely links his mood with the creative factors such as processing, virtual reality, and blank space in the picture. Flower and bird painting lies in a kind of artistic conception, the picture will be a large number of heavy ink color and color of the clever treatment, square folding with the pen, the shape of the gu pan state, born of the artistic conception, with a triangle of smooth management composition, the treatment of the bird stone has the meaning of Shunfeng with the pen, the refinement of strength.
Cai Maoyou pointed out that the key to thinking about how to activate the factors and links of traditional Chinese culture in the works to derive contemporary values lies in whether the artist has this ability to transform and break through, but in this process, it is the artist's long stage of learning and exploration, and the final work created is the best presentation: the result of his own cognition, speculation and reply to the cultural environment. In the work "Spring Breeze and the South Bank of the Green River", the painter takes the unity of traditional and modern aesthetics as the purpose, and pays attention to poetic creation, freehand conveyance, artistic language ontology construction and visual expression. In the painting, his works are fresh and fresh, graceful and colorful, strong and upright, and the iron pen is smooth, showing his unique insights on the inheritance and innovation of ink flower and bird paintings.
