1，Dr. Johnny Rock professor of Irvine Valley College :

　　“I am very impressed with Hong Bo’s paintings, I have been traveling to China since 1995 and have experienced a lot of Chinese Culture, yet Hong Bo’s paintings are unique! I enjoy the texture and how he uses the water brushes to capture the landscape of California’s sceneries. As a professor of education and a musician, I can relate to the complexity yet simplicity of Hong Bo’s work.”

　　约翰尼 罗克博士 美国尔湾大峡谷大学 教授

　　【我对洪波的绘画作品印象深刻，从1995年开始，我多次往返中国，深刻体会到中国文化的博大精深。洪波的绘画艺术是独一无二的，我对他绘画中的线条，以及对他用水墨表现美国山水的艺术风格印象深刻。作为一名音乐教育学教授，我非常欣赏洪波丰富的绘画语言中流露出来的朴素简明的风格。】

　　2. Chris Trueman (Professor, Art Department at Chaffey College)

　　HongBo’s paintings is connecting with western paintings. I am very interested in seeing in person and want to know more about how he uses different marks and colors. I am very impressed by his works with unique brush strokes and colors, and light and space. I have shown my work in Beijing in March 2016 and understood how the gestures and marks making in paintings are a common language beyond the boundaries of different cultures. Congrats to HongBo’s having new paintings showing in next month.

　　克瑞斯.楚曼—杰夫大学美术系 教授

　　【洪波的绘画与西方油画有着内在的联系。我非常希望见到他本人，更深入的了解他是如何处理不同水墨符号间的关系，以及对色彩的运用。他将水墨与色彩相碰撞所产生的独特的光影效果令我印象深刻。2016年3月我在北京举办展览，了解到在不同文化领域下，绘画的艺术手法和符号是共通的。预祝洪波先生于下月的画展成功举办。】

　　3. Jane Liu (Artist, Art Writer, Art Director at East West Art Association)

　　I have seen HongBo’s paintings before when he had an exhibition at Art Station in San Gabriel in 2017. I think that he was a great artist who had a very solid Chines ink painting knowledge. Moreover, he recently did California landscape paintings with traditional Chinese painting techniques. By doing so, HongBo encouraged many artists to work outside their comfort zone, and be creative. I am looking forward to seeing the upcoming  HongBo’s exhibition in February 10, 2018.

　　【我曾经于2017年洪波在圣盖博的艺站美术馆举办的画展上亲自看过他的作品。 我认为他是一位有着深厚中国传统水墨功底的优秀艺术家。近期，他对中国画画美国山水的践行，引领及鼓励了众多艺术家投入到加州山水的写生和创作中。我非常期待看到洪波先生即将在2018年2月10日举办的画展。】

　　There is something wild yet also supremely peaceful in Hong Bo’s paintings.  In his art, one senses the restless mysteries of nature.  As a film director, I am always seeking a rich visual and emotional experience.  Hong Bo’s work satisfies a viewer with the evocative movement he captures - images frozen yet vibrantly alive. From his romantic mountain landscapes, sparkling with textures and hints of ever-changing nature, to his paintings of trees, lotus blossoms, clouds, rivers and streams - his world is bristling with the interplay of light and dark.  Hong Bo’s work seems to be a perfect balance of East and West.  His art employs classical Chinese ink and brush techniques, but is also resolutely modern in its sensibility.  Each painting by Hong Bo seems to be a poetic expression of his soul.

　　哈瑞斯 安格 电影导演 美国国际纪录片创会主席

　　【洪波的绘画在动静之间相互转换，散发出的艺术张力令人感动。在他的艺术中，人们能感受到大自然中蕴藏的神秘的不安之谜。作为电影导演，我一直在寻求丰富的视角和情感体验。洪波非常善于捕捉自然中生动的瞬间，并将它凝固于画面，令人回味无穷。他极富诗意的山水画卷中，线条及对自然物象的表达丰富多样，例如他对树木、荷花、云海和溪流的描绘——他的艺术世界充满了无限生机。】

　　洪波的作品似乎在东西方之间达到了完美的平衡，他运用中国传统水墨技法呈现当代精神。洪波每幅作品都被赋予了真挚而清新的诗意。】

　　5，Sandra Costa  World-class celebrity interior designer

　　When I see HongBo’s paintings, I have seen structure of all his works , even mountains and California landscape. I am an International interior designer-having designed 16-17 century castle in the south of France and Egyptian Theater in Hollywood. I did design all kinds of buildings , but I care about next 100-year-art results as well as just HongBo’s works.

　　I do admire Hong Bo has been exploring California landscape over the past few years. He has been observing and abstracting the representative character of " California Sunshine " for a long time. Through a series of exploration and innovation of the artistic language, he combined the western color concepts with the oriental ink painting technique to create a new look.

　　姗卓 卡斯塔 世界知名室内建筑设计师

　　【 面对洪波的绘画，我能看见画面中蕴涵的结构，包括他画的山川以及加州山水。我是一名国际室内设计师，设计过法国南部16到17世纪的古堡，和好莱坞埃及剧院的室内装饰。与洪波一样，我虽然设计过不同风格的建筑，但我们都关注未来100年的艺术走向。

　　我非常欣赏洪波先生过去多年对加州山水的探索。他长期关注并提炼出“加州阳光”的典型特征，通过一系列艺术语言的创新和探索，将东方水墨技法与西方色彩有机结合，创造出全新的艺术面貌。】

　　6，【因为洪波的创作思维和那些SINOPHONE的小说家的创作方式本质上是一致的。因此他才能创作出这些用创新手法来描绘那些我们熟知场景的有趣的绘画作品。正如洪波呈现给大家的作品，这是用一种非同寻常的视觉艺术的表达形式，并且这种独特的视觉艺术表达形式是深深扎根于中国文化的各个层面的。因此，即便你对中国文化并不了解，你仍然可以感受这些绘画作品的魅力。它们是那么美，那么具有吸引力。你可以想象自己身处画中，来感受其中的意境。如果你想对这些绘画作更深入的理解，弄清楚这些绘画语言是如何操作无疑会对你有所帮助。洪波的绘画有它的基本原理、有它独特的词汇， 你要学会怎样去解读它。】

　　Because in a way this is kind of parallel to what the novelists, the short stories writers are doing, in the diaspora as well. So, we have this very interesting phenomenon of a representation of places that are familiar to us here. But yet as Hong Bo has told us ,this is expressed in a very distinctive visual language , and this visual language is very deeply rooted in other aspects of Chinese culture, so that, if you don’t know anything about Chinese panting, you can still enjoy these paintings . They’re very beautiful, they’re very attractive. You can walk into them and follow certain experiences that they provide....If you want to understand them a little more deeply, it does help to understand how this language works. It has a grammar, it has a vocabulary... In his paintings,and how to decode it.

　　7，【美国山水通常运用油画、素描等西方艺术的表现形式。洪波用中国画笔墨来表现美国山水，在艺术界领域是一个创新，同时，对中国画这种绘画形式来说，也是一种创新。】

　　HONG CHENG  ，UCLA  Chinese Department of East Asian Library  Director

　　Art works of American landscape usually use Western art forms like paintings, sketches and so on.Hong Bo's use of traditional Chinese painting techniques to represent American landscapes is an innovation in the field of art. At the same time, it is also an breakthrough  for the form of Chinese painting.
