我画面中常出现有飞禽走兽化石的山体，石头与生动活现的猫鸟虫鱼。一直以来，对于生命与宇宙的探索是我的兴趣所在，我主要想通过这样一个鲜明的对比，来诠释生与死、瞬间与永恒等寓意，在这样一个沉重而深远的命题前来思考绘画，尤其是花鸟画，会有何种不同呢？自古以来工笔花鸟画对客体再现的功能让它的创作性似乎变得没那么重要，这就容易使得画家创作路子变窄，我不想让自己的花鸟画只是对客观对象的简单再现，所以我赋予每张作品以新的寓意，画中的猫、鸟，他们都是带有人的情感，他们之间没有重复，每个个体都肩负一种寓意，于是每幅作品都有一个特别的故事在发生。另外在材料与技法上，我会跟据创作需要，适度调整，这样每幅作品都成为个性鲜明而独立存在的个体。

　　Cao Jing

　　In my drawings, there are some of mountain liked birds and beast and vivid other creatures, landscape oriented with disordered branches or water plants, existing in one space. For a long time, my interests are always to discover life and university, mostly in trying to set this kind of comparison to illustrate living and dead, moment and eternal, and what difference would it make if given these kind of mindset. Since the ancient meticulous art in flora and fauna, the facts that it is a descriptive art made it limited to bring creative ideas on the table for most artists. However, it is different for me as I shall not be only trying to objectively representing simple creature on art board, therefore I try to apply new meanings to each one of my drawing, give them emotion but not repeatedly, thus every one of them will entrust with a meaning, as every one of them will have a special story behind. Also, I will also adjust drawing skills and materials used for them to differ them into individually stand arts with vitality and own characteristics.
