Mr. Li Longtan is a typical northern man, he is warm, sincere and frank to people, and at the same time he has both the potential, subtlety, introversion and tenacity unique to northern literati. He has a unique way in the creation of flower and bird paintings, the ancient is not muddy, the wisteria he created is publicly distributed by Shandong Fine Arts Publishing House, which has become a model and teaching material for flower and bird painting lovers across the country, and the monkey fun works he created have been given as diplomatic gifts by the Shandong Provincial People's Government, the Ministry of Education and other government departments as diplomatic gifts to VIP guests. Li Longtan is both a university professor and a member of the Chinese Beauty Association, but he is indifferent to fame and fortune, never hypes up the fame of calligraphy and painting, as long as there is a unit to ask for painting, he can meet his wishes. In the past 30 years, he has donated hundreds of works for public welfare undertakings, which have been passed down as a good story by all walks of life.
Li Longtan didn't say much, but a pair of wise eyes were shining brightly. Flipping through his album and observing his works, you will be captivated by his self-contained style of flowers and birds, he is a seeker and pioneer on the road of traditional Chinese flower and bird painting.

An artist should be an explorer, and in the process of exploration, he should constantly find himself, and constantly gain new life perceptions in the mutation, for which Li Longtan has a clear understanding. As a flower and bird painter, his painting path is broad and has a deep traditional foundation, and it is precisely thanks to this that his freehand wisteria has its own shape. Although his freehand wisteria is still in the stage of continued exploration and research, and there are still unsatisfactory points, he has taken a powerful step, which is crucial to opening up a path of his own.
Since 1980, Li Longtan has studied Chinese painting with Mr. Zhang Peng, focusing on freehand flowers, birds and figures. Zhang Peng is a generation of masters, whose works are harmonious in layout, exaggerated in shape, concise in pen, informal, pen and ink are sometimes witty, sometimes solemn, sometimes elegant, sometimes thick, simple and complex, profound in meaning, vivid in shape, constituting their own unique style. Under the influence of Zhang Peng, Li Longtan also formed a strong style of simplicity and thickness, simple pen and ink, and lofty artistic conception.
His monkeys or playing between cedars, or wearing the moon jungle, or climbing on the vine, or crying on tall branches, or competing against each other, or mother and son rely on each other, with thousands of postures and emotions, deeply rooted in Zhang Peng's true biography.

In Li Longtan's works, his rich thoughts and feelings and perceptions of life are soaked everywhere. The swaying mountain flowers and wild flowers, the ground birds and birds that lead the neck to chirp, under the painter's pen, are so natural, so vivid. He said: "A good work is produced, the most important thing is that the painter must have passion, condense these passions on the end of the pen, and sprinkle them on the paper, so that such works can have appeal and resonate with the audience."
It is precisely because the works are infused with the artist's thoughts and feelings, so people can always search for the divine brush from the painter's works, and can feel the proposition of life that is pregnant in the form of flowers and birds.
Li Longtan's creation looks at the overall situation, painstakingly manages, seeks change in unification, seeks unity in change, and composes pictures that are both orderly and innovative, which should be the distinctive features of Li Longtan's flower and bird paintings.
In Li Longtan's view, whenever the painter has a pen in his hand and faces plain paper, whether it is as large as a ruler or as small as a square inch, it can be considered as a party world. The painter travels between the heavens and the earth for the management of the position of flowers and birds. Li Longtan can always find the entry point of each line from the macroscopic concept of time and space, and can do whatever he wants with his grasp of the virtual reality and complexity of the guest and the host, so that his composition appears atmospheric and the external tension is strong. In the treatment of parts and details of the work, he can be exquisitely crafted. His flower and bird shapes are inspired by penmanship, simplicity and clarity, and generalization and refinement. It is difficult for people to see the failure of his paintings and the phenomenon of adding snakes to his paintings, which is undoubtedly the embodiment of his carefully conceived painting with "heart".
Ink is light and not frivolous, the ink color is thick and not condensed, and it wins with a unique ink language, which is an important feature of Li Longtan's flower and bird paintings.
Literati painting is deliberately pursued by many painters, and literati painters pay great attention to the tempering of ink kung fu, because from the perspective of color itself, the change of ink depth can include all colors. Li Longtan put a lot of energy into painting monkeys with ink, which is undoubtedly an in-depth exploration on the road of literati painting. His monkey, ink affinity, ink color is clearly layered, when thick is thick, when light is light, when dry is dry, when wet is wet. Where the large area should be laid out, where the small area should be dyed, has been better reflected. It is true that Li Longtan cannot be said to have reached the realm of pure fire and perfection in this regard, but this kind of consciousness and this scientific and rigorous creative attitude have undoubtedly paved the way for him to become everyone in the future.
The road of calligraphy and painting creation is very arduous, this is a never-ending thorny road, and Li Longtan is trekking without fear of difficulty. I believe that he will achieve greater success on the road of art in the future.
