Artistic Career:
Since childhood, he has diligently practiced calligraphy and painting, devoting himself to artistic cultivation for decades without interruption. He studied the masters of the Song and Yuan dynasties, learned from both Northern and Southern schools in modern times, and also explored poetry, epigraphy, and stele rubbings. In his early years, he received guidance from renowned Heze artists such as Zhang Qi and Xu Zhenkai. Later, he was admitted to the Art Department of Heze Teachers College and the Art Education Department of Shandong Normal University, where he had the privilege of studying under esteemed mentors including Dong Zhou, Cheng Hongfu, Zhou Tie, Wang Jin, Yan Jianguo, and Zhang Zhimin. He systematically studied the brushwork essence of Song, Yuan, Ming, and Qing masters, beginning with painting theory and principles, comprehensively mastering traditional Chinese ink techniques. He balanced reverence for tradition with observation of nature, integrating both organically—learning from the ancients without being bound by them, engaging with the world while transcending vulgarity. Based on copying classical works, he emphasized sketching and memory drawing, integrating calligraphy into painting. His brushwork is vigorous, lively, bold, and rustic, yet retains elegance and refinement, achieving the poetic realm where “poetry exists within painting, and painting exists within poetry.” Such literati-style painting cannot be appreciated by the ordinary masses.
