CHENG Yajie

Fantasy 80*60cm, 1993, Vienna

CHENG Yajie’s Fairy Tale -- Fantasy

　　In the internationally famous oil painting master -- Cheng Yajie’s heart, there is a fairy tale world, which he presented with Vienna Fantasy Realism oil painting. One most pleasant and happy set is about babies, which he named as Baby or Little Princess, is the painter's favorite.

　　Fantasy painted in 1993 is quite unique, it is about clear and fascinating "big eyes". The butterfly flying between the hair and collar represents the dream of flying between heaven and earth.

　　Like Nocturnes, No. 7 of the German composer Schumann’s Childhood Scene, Fantasy has poetic layers, and has a subtle changing sense of rhythm.

　　It recounts the beauty of childhood dreams, expresses how warm, profound and sweet the ideal world is. Either the painting Fantasy or the music of Nocturnes expresses people’s pursuit and hope towards life and dreams, and how they miss the beautiful part they’ve lost.

　　The exquisite brush, the use of classical ultra-thin skills and the deep thoughts of fantasy realism, all blended into the beautiful paintings and make people feel pleasant.

　　《梦想·Fantasy》80*60cm，1993年，维也纳

　　程亚杰的童话《梦想Fantasy》

　　享誉国际的油画大师程亚杰心中有一个童话世界，他用维也纳幻想写实油画表现出来。其中一组是宝贝，这是最愉悦快乐的部分，通常画家冠以宝贝，小公主的名字，可见画家的喜爱。

　　1993年的《梦想·Fantasy》与众不同，这是一幅独特的“大眼睛”，清澈，迷人，蝴蝶在发迹和衣领间飞舞，犹如梦想在天地间翱翔。

　　这幅《梦想》和德国作曲家舒曼《童年情景》中第七首《梦幻曲》一样，有着诗歌般的层层递进，又有着微妙变化的律动感。叙述着儿时的美丽的梦，抒发理想世界的温暖、深远和甜蜜，无论是绘画的《梦想》还是音乐的《梦幻曲》同样包容着人们对生活对幻想的追求和希冀，也包含着对失去的美好的留恋。

　　细腻的画笔，古典主义超薄技艺的运用，幻想写实风格的深刻思想，融于一幅幅美丽的画中，让人心生愉悦。

　　An artist’s pursuit towards beauty is eternal. The oil painting master Cheng Yajie’s works are of unique beauty. Cheng Yajie has been traveling around the world, benefited from both Chinese and western arts, he has a solid grounding in the motherland, but also has global vision.

　　Cheng Yajie’s works have the beauty of both the east and the west. Shining Eyes is a picture about dolls, which is a theme loved by both eastern and western people. It interpreted Cheng Yajie’s understanding and awareness of beauty. This painting was begun in 1992 and completed in 2016, during which Cheng Yajie completed the progress from Vienna Fantasy Realism to the leading Las Vegas School of Painting.

　　Images of butterflies and symbols were indistinct in his works over 20 years ago, and now they are characteristics of the Las Vegas school. Whatever they mean, they make the paintings look more beautiful without doubt.

　　Shining Eyes and its companion piece Fantasy are quite similar -- in each painting there are beautiful big eyes, pure and bright, kind and beautiful! See through their eyes, there must be an even more beautiful world in the heart of the artist.
