绿色移动 2017

This is 绿色移动 by 王新福; look at how Wang Xinfa has wrestled with oil paint to conjure these dynamic trees. You can almost feel him shifting and pivoting, building up the surface with dollops of green, ochre, and blue. I imagine him outside, maybe even en plein air, squinting at the sunlight as it dapples through the leaves. He’s not trying to copy nature, but to find its rhythm, to discover some inner truth. There’s a real generosity in the way he piles on the paint, creating a tangible, tactile surface. It's like he's building these trees, plank by plank. The sky shimmers with strokes of white and blue. It reminds me a bit of Van Gogh's expressive brushwork, but Wang Xinfa brings his own distinct sensibility, a raw, unpolished energy. It makes you feel the pulse of nature. Isn't it amazing how artists across time keep talking to each other, sharing their visions, and pushing the boundaries of painting?
