Retreat in Spring Hill

作品賞析

CHI Jung-Hao is skilled in employing ink painting and calligraphy as his creative media. His ink paintings are often based upon natural landscapes that he had seen before and reflect his feelings and emotions of his travels. In Retreat in Spring Hill, CHI Jung-Hao uses complex brushstrokes to depict tall mountains, hills, and a narrow cascading waterfall in the faraway glades. The water converges into a creek that traverses through the rugged terrain and meanders slowly along the mountain foot. The composition depicts the artist’s restfulness in his travels and his joy in sharing his tales. This ink painting serves as an extension of the artist’s personal emotions and as a tapestry of poetic beauty that integrates both his artistic inclinations and natural elements while exemplifying his unique take on Shanshui painting.
