Mr. Wu Hong, a member of the China Artists Association, is an oil painter who has recently painted a number of watercolor paintings, each of which is very exciting. Watching it is like bathing in the sea breeze, listening to the sound of the waves, and counting the pieces of sail. I think that I have not seen him for a short time, but he has tossed out many watercolor sketches, and the exotic scenery makes me feel bright. I admired these works with great pleasure, and I felt that it was very normal for Wu Hong to often make such an attractive sound.
In today's world art pattern, watercolor painting shows a strong vitality with its broad and variable language and rich expressiveness, and plays an irreplaceable and important role. Oil painting and watercolor, which were originally sister arts, are bound to become the junction of Chinese and Western painting art, and are generally valued and loved by Chinese artists. As an oil painter, Wu Hong's understanding and practice of the art of watercolor painting is very pure.
Watercolor painting is indeed a bit of a mysterious thing, it needs your control over it, more need you to indulge in it, because its soul travels in the air, more freely wandering in the water, who wants to control it, need the artist to have a little magician's characteristics, some people just can't catch it, making the work lack the soul of watercolor. We certainly know that the feeling of water in a watercolor painting is not what a good watercolor is all about.
Wu Hong is a painter who pays attention to the quality of life, he will not deceive life, let alone deceive artistic labor. Combing through his artistic path over the years, the impression I have is: sincere life, wisdom creation, Wu Hong's group of exquisite watercolor landscape sketches, just confirm this.
