I agree with the statement that a pilgrim must be a person who has traveled through the mountains and rivers to see the spring of the world; A pilgrim must be a person who has persistent beliefs and knows that life depends on his heart to return, because every inch of time marks not only leave wind and frost on the appearance and appearance, but also the depth, richness and peace of the heart.

In my opinion, the works of the painter Lu Gang are also benefiting from the principle of "the creation of the outside teacher and the source of the heart", the result of the themes of "value revaluation", "examination of the times", "man and nature" and "man and art", and the same understanding of the world in the sensibility. Obviously, in Lu Gang's view, it is not only about "what to paint", but also about "how to paint", and more emphasis is on the painter's grasp and control of the picture, the painter's life and emotional investment in the brush and ink, as well as the humanistic content and human temperature in the brush and ink.

The extraordinary thing about Lu Gang's artistic thinking lies in his belief that art must be directed at people's hearts, and it is also a kind of discovery of the relationship between people and the world, rather than just a general expression of emotions. Obviously, Lu Gang's artistic outlook and aesthetic orientation have the same goal - art and beauty are not only limited to the expression of emotions, nor are they only about form, brushwork, and hue, which are sensory and formal, but also have deeper and higher things, that is, "man and nature", "man and art" and other broader propositions; Painters should incorporate these propositions into the scope of understanding, cognition and comprehension of artists.

The Tang Dynasty poet Wang Changling said in "Poetry": "Poetry has three realms: one is the objective lens, the second is the situation, and the third is the artistic conception." Obviously, Lu Gang's years of experience in the form and brushwork of his flower and bird paintings have enabled him to reach the "place where the heart travels and climbs, so it is called the realm", even if the artistic conception here is not only limited to the objects and places "within the reach of the heart", but also includes the objects within the reach of the senses directed by the "heart"; In fact, artistic conception does not only refer to the scenery, "feeling" is also its important connotation, "feeling" is born from the heart, and the perfection of the intentional state must include people's spiritual and moral cultivation and the height of the realm they have reached. Lu Gang started from the first intention, with the intention of the intention, the shape of the spirit of wit, the reality into the virtual, to the shape of the god as the key, in the process of remote love and the spirit and the object of the tour, to get the meaning of deep wonder, and the formation of Lu Gang's own style and pen and ink interest.

The simple, quiet, bleak and simple style of Lu Gang's flower and bird painting contains at least three stylistic dimensions:
1. Lu Gang lives in Yingshang County, Anhui Province, north of the Huai River, and the bleak autumn in the north has become an indelible adolescent memory for the painter, and has gradually become the resonance point of "nostalgia" and "nostalgia" in adulthood. Therefore, it can be said that the poignant and sparse beauty conveyed by the desolation and desolation of autumn colors in his works is not unrelated to his youth experience. The formation of personal artistic style is obviously directly related to the artist's living environment, personal temperament, and preferences.

2. The formation of a certain artistic style depends on a specific era with a specific context and social atmosphere; Conversely, we can only look at a particular personal artistic style and understanding of a particular era; The information revealed in Lu Gang's works illustrates this point.

3. Lu Gang's personal style and uniqueness of flower and bird paintings are closely related to the development trend of modern Chinese art, the collision of Chinese and Western cultures, and even specific creative concepts and formal techniques. In addition, Lu Gang's personal understanding of brush and ink and the use of skills were completed in the era of "language transformation" or "value revaluation", and developed his own unique form and structure of brush and ink, only in this way can brush and ink be updated and developed.

Art history shows that only when there is a harmonious and tacit understanding between the three dimensions of the individual, the era and the language can a truly meaningful style be formed that leaves a personal mark in history.
In art, it is through a distinctive personal style that special human qualities and inner emotions of universal significance can be brought to the fore.
The reason why Lu Gang's flower and bird paintings are stoppable and timeless is that he can turn a certain profound life experience and life feeling into a visual and perceptible art form, and can express the unique simple and simple style into a complete and mature style, in the structure of brush and ink, the meaning of form, the cold forest and fallen leaves, and the sparse loneliness, people feel a unique and eye-catching "life writing" and "inner world" chanting, this "inner world" chanting, this "life writing" It is precisely the universality that transcends time and space. The secret of the success of Lu Gang's flower and bird painting lies here, and the significance of his personal style is also highlighted.

In the search for art, Lu Gang found his own words. Lu Gang's flower and bird paintings express the desolation and sparseness of late autumn, but the existence of life and the vitality will reappear, which is the central image of the painter's works. Of course, a close reading of the artist's works reveals the richness and complexity of the works, which makes people cherish time and imply that time is no longer remembered, which is touching and allows people to taste the inner world of the painter from the works. Therefore, the passage of time, the desolation of the cold forest, the chirping of birds and the hint of vitality of life have cultural symbolic intentions, that is, the passing and the new, the desolate and the depressed, etc., are all displayed in the details of the picture, which is a kind of warmth of life in melancholy and sadness.

Lu Gang's paintings of flowers and birds repeat the confrontation between the old and the new, but the difference is that lyricism and melancholy appear in different ways in different works with different degrees of emotional ups and downs, making it more melancholy and desolate. This not only contains the discovery of human nature, but also the artist's discovery of his own heart.
