Yang Xiaoyang believes that when he created calligraphy and painting works, he dared to break the restrictions and patterns of his predecessors, and walked out of his own unique artistic path. I haven't seen it before, and I don't know what it is, but that's what my art is. Compared to those who are old-fashioned, they always have these achievements.

This style is vividly expressed in Yang Xiaoyang's calligraphy and painting works. He uses a unique brushwork technique to skillfully blend tradition and modernity, combining the freehand spirit of Chinese painting with the use of color in Western painting, forming a unique artistic style. His paintings not only have a deep cultural heritage, but also have a distinct sense of modernity. However, the birth of this style did not happen overnight. Yang Xiaoyang has experienced countless attempts and explorations. He constantly pushes his limits and breaks the mold in order to innovate.

He deeply studied the traditional techniques of Chinese painting, and at the same time absorbed the essence of Western modern art, and tried to find his own artistic language. In this process, Yang Xiaoyang also encountered difficulties and confusion. He once questioned whether he was on the wrong path, and at one point even wanted to give up. But every time he thinks of his artistic ideals, he reinvigorates himself. He firmly believes that only by constantly exploring and making breakthroughs can we find our own artistic path.
