Cui Laizhou’s painting style is austere and imbued with rich cultural atmosphere. He has attained accomplishments in literature, calligraphy, seal carving, and traditional Chinese painting, making him a typical scholarly painter. With a clear lineage of artistic mentorship, his works are full of vitality and expressive brushwork, exhibiting a distinctive western regional character, and he is widely recognized as an inheritor of the Chang’an School of painting.
Professor Guo Fangyi of Central China Normal University (renowned painter) said: Whether in large-scale works or small pieces, Laizhou’s paintings have injected a fresh, flowing stream into the turbid art world. They testify to the excellence and greatness of the long-standing Chinese painting tradition, while also offering valuable insights for the inheritance and innovation of this ancient art form. Professor Wan Junren, renowned Chinese philosopher, President of the National Ethics Society, and Dean of the School of Humanities at Tsinghua University, composed a poem for Laizhou’s paintings: “Man Ting Fang” Amidst worldly chaos, hard to speak of art—how rare, a pure ink soul. Withered lotuses fill the pond; nowhere to find floating leaves. The true essence of China’s spring and autumn—who can capture its spirit and form? Look up: a painter from Yuzhou, still leaves behind a lingering fragrance. Gather three crickets, a cold magpie, fine rain over empty mountains, flute weeps, cicadas moan. Subtle dots and lines, faint ink traces of plum blossoms. Azure waters and vermilion hues endure forever—only a bold brush can wash away the mundane dust. In the secluded orchid valley, from Master Cui’s wrist flows simplicity and pure truth.
