Description

Realistic acrylic painting, painted by the Dutch fine artist Paul Meijering of two ballerinas painted in watercolour by Chinese painter Liu Yi.
The original painting is 90 x 120 cm

Liu Yi was born in 1958 in Jiang Nan, Shanghai. His love for his hometown lies behind the beautiful garden scenes of his village and can be seen in paintings showing local folk customs. The artist's sentimental interpretation of rainy, misty atmosphere and picturesque landscapes of his surroundings became his signature style. Yi graduated from Hua Dong University of Education and later completed postgraduate studies of watercolour painting at the China College of Fine Arts. He believes his conception of water as "man's harmony with nature" is the essence of Chinese philosophy.

Although he finds creating the satisfying work exhausting and painstaking, Yi enjoys combining elements such as colour, randomness, water and rhythm. Watercolour painting has a unique beauty, with softness and hardness, speed and steadiness, lightness and heaviness, calmness and excitement making a poetic story and establishing harmony. Liu Yi is famous for the series of ballerina paintings, with young girls dressed in their ballet clothes as subjects. As a professor, he tries to convey everything he knows to his students and encourages them to be positive and confident.
