Artist: Dong Shaoliang 
 
Artist's reflection: The landscape that Dong saw must have been magnificent. This contemporary watercolor painting on paper may not be the actual landscape he saw, but it nonetheless gives the sense of immense size. 
 
Dong's contemporary watercolor paintings are mainly based on the natural scenery of the four seasons. Many of his works are created from his travels or daily life. His paintings are simple and generous, but pass on to the viewer unique feelings about the four seasons. It is as if through the paintings the viewer can feel the the comfort and calmness of close contact with nature.
