In Chinese contemporary art,‘Chinese elements’ is the production which hunts for its existent way influenced by the western culture now. However, what’s the direction for the Chinese contemporary art when the western art has no way to go?

The real spirit of Chinese art is to discover the origin of the art in the heart and disposition of the specific life ,and then to get the release and free. This mind is balancement, introspective,infinite and complete.The life will bring forth an awakening of the whole.

These portraits are different from the portraits in the art history. After they expurgate the illustration and expression, these difference faces with specific characteristics are included in the  whole ,free and perfect spirit of Chinese landscape paintings.
