Zhang Dongfeng: When I was studying to paint, someone once told me that there was a leaf on a tree pole, very tender and tender, and this color was simply never seen before. Then I went to examine it, and I really felt the same way. I started to learn to draw, and I tried to draw it, but I quickly realized that this kind of thing wouldn't look good because it was so special, and the east song that was too special could only be used as news.
Something to absorb from Chinese painting: For example, if you have a boyfriend you like very much, your daily life will reveal a good feeling for him, which is an unintentional, potential natural outpouring. That's what I learned from those great painters, not that I had to draw his lines when I learned from Matisse. I'm not paranoid about necessarily liking this and not that, there are too many painters to like.
The impact of experimental art on the art of painting on shelves is currently of great concern in society. I think people's choices of art forms are diverse, and painting on the shelf is just one of many art forms. When people have more options, the painting on the shelf returns to where it should be. This is like a group of children, it turns out that everyone is playing with blocks, when they find that after having computer games, everyone rushes to play with the computer, and there are relatively few people playing blocks here, which is very normal. Don't panic or be sad for such a reason. Some people are novelty and will come back to play with blocks after a while.
At that time, I went to Beijing for further study, running back and forth between Beijing and Nanning, limited by economic conditions, I could only take the train, look at the scenery on the train, from Nanning in Guangxi to See Hunan, see Hubei, Henan, Hebei, see Beijing, let me feel the difference between the scenery between the north and the south. Before living in Nanning, I didn't care, but once I stepped out of the south, I felt the characteristics of the southern landscape and found its unique side. The green of Guangxi is so unique, the color is different, the vegetation is different, the region is different, enlightening me in the method and form of expression, and at the same time I have found my own artistic coordinates.
I can say with more confidence that I can express my mood more smoothly when I paint. When the painting is satisfactory, I am self-intoxicated and self-appreciative on the side, and there are not many cases that are very difficult, huh! The result of long-term efforts.
Therefore, we human beings have no strengths other than the head, and we are not the opponents of all things at all. We only have the brain dominant, agile, creative thinking, and the ability to think from multiple angles, if human intelligence is smart here. Our paintings should also be reflected here. On the surface, it seems that a person's painting is clever, but in fact, the painter's mind understands everything in the world, observes and discovers the beauty of the world, which is the essence.
I think that painting is a superficial phenomenon, in the bones is thinking, it is something that is highly embodied in the spirit, and your picture also reflects a person's taste and depth of thinking. Therefore, the human emotional world is a part of human intelligence, this part is wonderful, the more in place and deeply the grasp of feelings, the more it can reflect the height of this person's wisdom.
