作品描述: This painting was created in 1982 during the time a film was being shot in Sanhe, Sichuan. It is an on-the-spot painting of a real-life scene. Ink was used sparingly as if it were as precious as gold, yet the artist’s skills are demonstrated. At that time, the News Film Studio of China was shooting a documentary exclusively about the artist Wan Ko Yee.
The cameramen and others present saw a wild duck alight upon a withered tree trunk. Wan Ko Yee immediately lifted His brush and promptly finished the entire painting. By the time the wild duck raised its wings and flew away, this painting had already been completed. Moreover, the artistic prowess this artwork embodies is extraordinary. It not only perpetuates the elegance, purity, and high-quality of traditional paintings, it also expresses a new style. People who saw Wan Ko Yee create this painting were greatly surprised. They highly praised Him for having artistic skills and conceptions resembling but surpassing those of Bada Shanren (a famous Ming Dynasty painter). They also highly praised Him for His scholarly style that even excels the scholarly style reflected in ancient stone seals. At the time, the artist Wan Ko Yee was still in His early youth and was praised in the newspapers as a young hero. However, people did not know then that Wan Ko Yee is H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III, as we now know.
The “Fanpu” style These paintings express the artistic conception of returning to original purity and simplicity. With unfettered hand and mind, the artist applies his most mature skills free of the slightest attachment and with minimal, natural strokes of the brush.
《鄉土情濃》畫面簡潔,意筆率真。墨色之中筆筆分明,筆墨之中蘊含著濃郁的情感。心手相忘之間,一幅飽含鄉土氣息的山村畫卷,撲面而來。山雖不高,卻隱約可見仙居;水雖不深,清流卻宛然含靈。青青的遠山連結著無垠的遙遠、汩汩流淌的小河之上,小橋桁架,一座小橋讓此岸彼岸連成一片,使彼岸變得不再遙不可盼;靈筆一揮,簡單的物質形態刹那轉化成清純溫馨的詩的境界。這就是風格鮮明獨特的H.H.Dorje Chang Buddha III 的繪畫藝術。
