Artist: Wang Xiaojin
 
Artist's reflection: Bright and airy could aptly describe this contemporary art, yet there are ample darker colors as well. The girl in the scene is difficult to read. Is this happy, sad, or indifferent? 
 
In his contemporary artwork, Wang combines traditional Chinese elements e.g. brush strokes, white space, boldness - with western oil painting techniques. His paintings are of a traditional Chinese style, but do not lose the basic expression of oil painting - thus presenting a different feeling. In Wang's "Lady" series of artwork, the denseness of brush strokes and the contrast of colors are everywhere. The paintings are full of poetic and abstract shapes and deeply reflect the emotions of women.
