Zhang Xiaolin, who was born in the mountains and grew up in the mountains, has an innate love for the mountains. It is precisely by virtue of more than 20 years of obsession and dedication to the art of Chinese painting that I have gradually realized the charm of Shennongjia's landscape. That mountain, thin as bone, straight into the clouds, the rare trees such as boxwood, cliff cypress, and tung trees on the mountain are green and dripping; Travel through the forest of golden snub-nosed monkeys, giant pandas and other exotic beasts. The water, cool as jade, flowing valley bottom, the stream of giant salamander, stone fish and other strange fish playing in the water, it can really be described as a collection of mountain treasures, forest treasures gathered. The clouds and mist in the mountains are like light veils, which loom to hide the rich physique of Shennongjia.
The phrase "Take bitterness for pleasure, and bitterness is pleasure" is hidden in the depths of Zhang Xiaolin's soul for a long time, and no one knows about the bitterness! Although there are endless hardships and hardships in the process of painting in the past twenty years, people have to live and struggle for what they like to do, so that life is meaningful, and Zhang Xiaolin is obsessively living for his favorite Chinese painting art.
In order to paint his beloved mountain, Teacher Zhang cheng successively entered the deep mountains and dense forests of Shennongjia to sketch for nearly 20 years, and when he was discovered by Liu Shengce, director of the Cultural Bureau of Shennongjia Forest District, Teacher Zhang was like a wild man, and it was at this time that this talented painter entered the public's field of vision. Whenever Teacher Zhang looked at the paintings in his studio, he couldn't help but secretly appreciate the beautiful scenery of shennongjia that accompanied me growing up. Shennongjia, I thank you! You are the idol in my heart, the material in my paintings, and the mother who nurtured me to grow up! I am lifting your veil of mystery with a paintbrush, allowing the world to draw near to you and embrace you!
