从油画诞生、发展至今,有过很多个画派。佛罗伦萨画派、威尼斯画派、古典主义画派、巴比松画派、抽象表现派、写实派、印象派等等。写实派油画与印象派油画是近几个世纪以来最大的两个画派,也是很受艺术家追捧的两大画派。这两大画派的艺术家其实一直是互不看好,但是又互不干扰,各自发展这样一种状态。21世纪是一个文艺复兴时期,世界各国涌现出很多很多的艺术家,并且也有很多新开创的画派在悄悄绽放。可是,在我看来,想要把一件事情做到更好,更极致,就要放下各自的骄傲与偏见,绘画在我眼中就是点、线、面和光色点。而那些众多的画派,无非就是表象,表意,但是万变不离其宗。所以我认为:画有法,画无定法,这是绘画的一种最高境界。我在所有的画派当中选择了两个最典型的画派,写实派和印象派。其实这两大画派各自有各自的优势,可以各自取之精华,然后合二为一。

那时的我很年轻,二十多岁,敢于尝试,对艺术充满热情,还有就是我在开创新的画派之前就会画写实派和印象派两个画派的油画。所以最终在我28岁那年从绘画思想成熟到绘画实践锻炼,最终开创了“实印派油画”。成功完成了我的第一幅作品是《梦中小景》,此作我用了半年的时间,因为大脑里构思的东西和实践是有差距的,所以一开始的处女作,用了很长时间。《母子情深》是我最经典的一幅作品。然后,还有我的代表作《福禄广进图》、《天宫》、《开往春天的列车》、《粉红色的春天》《妈妈的梦》、《眼》、《生生不息》、《记忆中的康宁湖》、《红山》、《绿洲小岛》。

“实印派”油画提取了印象派表意和写实派表象的精髓,两者相结合,又添加了中国文化元素。在暗面喜欢采用内心的颜色,在用色上尽量还原了色彩的原色,但是也有调和,用色上把控了一个“度”。

本人用心绘制了一幅幅梦想中的美景,这些景有的来源于生活中的记忆,有的来源于梦境,还有的就是纯粹的来自于意识中的虚构想象。每一幅作品即相同又不同。风景画想要表意很难,不像人物画可以选择叙事的方式,但是我的每一幅作品几乎都同它的名字一样有一定的寓意和它的来源。

实印派油画,脱离了点线面的拼合运动及大色块,这种简单的方式去表达内心的世界,而是清晰地再现了虚空想象中的理想景致,它们更是我内心深处的一方净土。它是属于中国的,也是属于世界的。油画从起源到发展,再到现在开创的“实印派油画”,我认为它基本上在本世纪的文艺复兴时期走向了极致,走向了巅峰。

The Peak of Oil Painting Art – “Real-Impression School”

From birth to the present, oil painting has had many painting schools. Florentine School, Venetian School, Classicism School, Barbizon School, Abstract Expressionism, Realism, Impressionism, etc. Realistic oil painting and impressionist oil painting are the two main painting schools in recent centuries, and they are also the two major painting schools followed by many artists. The artists of these two major painting schools have always been in a state of disapproving each other, but not interfering with each other and developing independently. The 21st century is a Renaissance period. Many artists have emerged from all over the world, and many new painting schools are quietly blooming. However, in my opinion, if you want to do something better and more extreme, you must let go of your pride and prejudice. In my eyes, painting is just point, line, surface, light and color. And so many painting schools are nothing more than representation and ideographic painting. Despite the changes, they were never departed from its religious origin. So my point is: Follow the rules of painting, but not be limited to this, which should be the highest realm of painting. I chose the two most typical of all the painting schools, Realism and Impressionism. In fact, the two schools have their own advantages, you can take the essence of both, and then combine them together.

At that time, I was very young and in my twenties. I dared to try and was full of enthusiasm for art, and before started an innovative painting school, I already know how to paint paintings of realism and impressionism. Therefore, at the age of 28, I experienced the maturity of painting ideas and the practice of it, and finally created the “Real-Impression oil painting”. The first work I successfully completed was “A Scene in a Dream”, which took me half a year. There is always a gap between the ideas in my brain and practice, so this first piece of work took me a long time. “Mother and Child” is one of my most classic works. After that, I also created “Fortune & Well Being”, “Heaven Palace”, “Train to Spring”, “Pink Spring”, “Mom’s Dream”, “Eye”, “Endless Life”, “Kangning Lake in Memory”, “Red Mountain” and “Oasis Island” and other representative works.

The “Real-Impression school” oil painting extracted the essence of impressionism’s ideographic technique and realism’s representation technique, and added Chinese cultural elements into the combination of the above. I prefer to use my inner color on the dark side of the painting, and try my best to restore the original color of the pigment, but sometimes modulation is inevitable, so I need to control the “degree” in the use of color.

Each painting is the beautiful scenery in my dream, some of these scenes come from my memories, some come from my dreams, and some are purely fictitious imaginations. Each piece of my work is identical but individual. It is difficult to use ideographic techniques in landscape paintings, which can not use narration method as in figure paintings, but almost every piece of my work has its meaning and origin, just like its name.

Real-Impression oil paintings gave up the simple combination of points, lines and surface and large color blocks to express the inner world, but clearly reproduces the ideal scenery in the illusory imagination, presenting the pure land in my heart. It belongs to both China and the world. From its rise to its development, and till now, the establishment of the “Real-Impression school oil painting”, I think the history of oil painting in the Renaissance of this century has basically reached its extreme and peak.
