尚未命名 2017年春 油画棒 纸 水彩 245X120cm

　　绘画，在我看来犹如画家同画纸、画布的交谈，有时似讨论，有时像闲聊。某个会议要围绕某个主题进行讨论最终会达成共识或决议，而暇时约朋友喝茶聊天则海阔天空漫无边际适时而收。画家与画纸、画布若围绕某些形象进行对话结果会产生具象绘画，而抽象绘画无需描绘形象不用刻意追求意味，这时画家与画面就像在作一次漫无主题的闲谈，轻松自由，随意自然，意到就收。

　　Some  fragments of thoughts dragged out when I am painting

　　Translated by Zhao Ji-dong

　　What is the definition of painting? I would say that when a painter is doing painting， he is talking with the papers or canvas， sometimes he is trying to start a discussion and sometimes he is chatting. For a business conference， a certain subject has to be centered on and in the end the common view is reached by signing an agreement. Let‘s forget about the boring business conference and just think about the time when we are having a cup of tea with friends in a warm sunny afternoon. At this moment our topics are so free and the unchained wings of our thoughts will bring us to the boundless space! How relaxing it is! Then we can just wrap it up at the right time. If the dialogue between the painter and the papers or canvas is based on some particular objects or images， it will result in representational paintings. However， the abstract painting does not depict reality and seek for an implication purposely. When a painter is painting the abstract works， he is just chatting freely at his own will with the papers or canvas with no particular subjects， so free and relaxing， he may stop at any time.
