If someone asks, who among the painting friends is the most devoted to painting? I'm sure – Chen Wei. Having known Chen Wei for more than 30 years, I feel that Chen Wei's life seems to be painting. He apprenticed to his teacher, went north and south to see art exhibitions, ran museums and libraries, saw more good paintings, traveled extensively, discussed and learned with more painting friends, and constantly pursued, all of which were paintings in his heart.

Chen Wei loves to learn and is good at learning. He can understand and analyze the strengths and weaknesses of other people's paintings very thoroughly, and can draw the nutrients he needs from the strengths of others to supplement himself. It can also alert yourself from the shortcomings of others and avoid taking the wrong road and taking the detour. Draw inferences from one another, think deeply, and follow it day and night. He constantly goes out to collect style, sketch, create, constantly self-denying, and constantly self-improvement to paint new works.

I like a number of works painted by Chen Wei recently! Chinese painting is a form of painting in which the subjective will is particularly strong and must be entrusted to the painter's soul and feelings, and "landscape painting" is by no means a "landscape painting".

The unity of heaven and man", "the source of the heart in the creation of the law", Chen Wei has a deep understanding of the mystery.

Chen Wei's works, with concise and scrutinized lines, elegant ink rhyme, simple colors, and refreshing and ingenious compositions, construct the hope in his own heart. Its artistic conception is profound, remote, intriguing, and elegant, and there is a poetic pursuit, which can not help but make people applaud.

Chen Wei's works have a strong sense of wholeness, with appropriate use of black, white and gray, reasonable contrast and segmentation of large surfaces, not trivial or messy, and the main body is prominent and durable. He uses his own brush-and-ink structure to constantly purify, integrate, and select. What to strengthen and what to weaken is very clear. Therefore, the observation of nature, through the traces of the soul, and the continuous pursuit, painted a good work with a strong self and a breath of life. It brings a spiritual and visual beauty to the viewer!
