Stories and feelings in the process of learning art

I have always believed that painting is a pure thing, which is specially provided for the enjoyment of feelings and has the directness of feelings. Its existence is not supported by historical documents and themes, without the participation of all explanatory tools, but reduces all efforts to elements isomorphic with feelings, thus upgrading artistic activities to aesthetic activities. Expressing oneself in its own structure has always been the ideal of art and the only way for art to redeem itself. For a painter, it is incompetent to establish the value and significance of painting by narrating, telling stories and political themes, which is not the right way for artistic development. If one day, the story is not chosen and the opportunity to show up is missed, everything will be in vain. Therefore, I like Mr. Chen Junde's oil paintings very much. He especially loves China culture and has a deeper understanding of the spirit of China art, so his oil paintings seem to be closer to the local connotation of China. He knows the origin of western modern painting very well, but he pays more attention to the artistic spirit of China culture. He deeply integrated the artistic spirit of China culture into his own creation, advocating nature and never pretending. Intense brushstrokes, intense color blocks, proper structure and pure phonology are the pulse of the painter's life in a specific time and space and the accumulation of the painter's life consciousness. Let me say something extreme. Some painters' paintings are smooth and sweet at first glance, but they are actually tacky. This is also an unavoidable weakness in rural areas. I think we should never paint to please anyone, to gain respect from anyone, or to win an award. Any painting with external purpose is not pure painting. Our creation should hold a sincere attitude, demanding that in a fierce and complicated environment, we can restrain impetuousness, remain sincere, and have enough persistence in our esteemed artistic ideals. A painter is like a devout religious person. No matter when and where, no matter what kind of prosperity or adversity, he will abide by his artistic beliefs and make unremitting exploration for them. I admire this kind of independent artist with strong personality. I like reading their biographies, appreciating their works and appreciating the joys and sorrows they have experienced. draw
