He said
If there is a pursuit in the heart, there will be a harvest
Pan Jianhua, an "old painter" who has been in the industry for more than 40 years, said that he has "two brushes", the first "brush" to paint walls and furniture.

At that time, the painters were very different from now, and at that time, they also had to paint some paintings on the furniture, Liuhe Pagoda, Three Pools Yingyue, Meilan Zhuju, that is, to paint these contents, according to our local sayings, look at almost an image on it, not very particular about how well you paint.
There is nothing "exquisite" in the industry, but Pan Jianhua is "paying attention to people", practicing painting skills hard, and his painting skills are famous far and wide.

At the beginning of watching the master's painting, I "stole" to see it, and when I returned home, I used a pencil to draw on a white paper to practice. Some mud and water workers can't draw, ask me to help, are very happy, but also willing to help them paint, there is such an opportunity must cherish, but also to show their talents.
Old-fashioned furniture, gradually lack of attention, Pan Jianhua's craftsmanship has nowhere to show. The "old painter" is determined to pick up a second "brush"—a paintbrush that paints flowers, birds, and landscapes. In 2016, he entered the university of the elderly to study painting. In the summer of 2019, "old lacquer" Pan Jianhua spent two days creating four paintings and was admitted to the seminar of the China Academy of Fine Arts.
The "old painter" is going to college, and the family is a little worried.

At first, the family was not very supportive, especially the mother was particularly unsupportive, thinking that he was older and farther away, and it was inconvenient to run around.
Pan Jianhua attends classes two days a week, running in Hangzhou and Deqing. In the evening, the three of them shared a room. At the beginning of 2021, he graduated as an "excellent student", but his dream of painting continued.

Hopefully, my experience will affect more people, no matter how old you are, what kind of work you do, as long as you are interested, do it whenever you want to. My biggest wish is that I can paint better, participate in the provincial exhibition and the national exhibition, and want to have a personal exhibition and continue to paint.
