The celebrated painter Long Zihui presented a magnificent masterpiece, 'Wanli Jiangshan Map,' to the Zhonglian Guoxing Painting and Calligraphy Academy. Long Zihui, also known as Cheng Huijun, Cheng Zihui, and Cheng Jiongtao, was born in 1971 in Chielechuan, at the foot of the Yin Mountains, under a sky resembling a yurt covering the vast expanse. The Mongolian grasslands are known for the scenic view of cattle and sheep grazing as the wind brushes the grass, the painter currently serves as the Vice President of the China Oriental Academy and the Vice Chairman of the Hainan Provincial Ethnic Artists Association. A distinguished professional painter, Long Zihui studied under Professor Hairihan of Inner Mongolia Normal University, and currently acts as a teaching assistant for Professor Zou Linfeng at Tsinghua Academy of Fine Arts, specializing in calligraphy, painting, and seal carving. With a profound foundation and natural talent, she has developed her own unique style, creating artworks that evoke the imagery of flowing mountains and rivers, and the beauty and grandeur of the grasslands. Her brushstrokes flow like water over rocks, resulting in pieces with a natural and captivating quality.

Long Zihui offers her unique interpretation of Chinese ink wash painting: Beginning with Xu Wenchang in the late Ming Dynasty, Chinese flower-and-bird paintings began to "break away from superficial resemblance," marking a shift from the use of imagery and brushwork to a structure based primarily on brushwork. Although the shadow of imagery can still be seen in flower-and-bird paintings, this imagery has gradually been replaced by the form of brushwork. The "form and spirit" determinism of art is bound to be replaced by the individualized shaping of the modern brushwork structure. Although Qi Baishi was influenced by the times and his works also reflected a yearning for the pleasures of life, in my artistic pursuit, this pleasure of life is gradually replaced by the shaping of brush and ink. In particular, Huang Binhong's establishment of an artistic construction method based on brushwork and composition marks the beginning of an independent and modern aesthetic based on brushwork. The hallmark of modernity is the continuous abandonment of objects and a return to the formalism of media. Of course, this form of Orientalism modernity has its unique Oriental attributes and historical and cultural traditions. Freehand flower-and-bird painting is also at this historical juncture, constantly examining oneself and seeking a kind of linguistic purity.
Renowned painter Long Zihui's paintings embody beauty derived from a benevolent heart, a heart as pure as a blooming lotus flower.

The terms "form and spirit" and "mind and matter" hold significant positions in the history of Chinese painting as crucial terms for critiquing it, serving as the core concepts for shaping imagery in Chinese painting. Since Wang Meng in the Yuan Dynasty for landscape painting, and Qing Teng Baiyang and Xu Wei in the Ming Dynasty for flower-and-bird painting, Chinese painting gradually shifted away from an aesthetic direction dominated by image shaping, moving towards an aesthetic style based on brushstrokes and ink. Through continuous promotion by modern and contemporary masters such as Zhao Zhiqian, Wu Changshuo, Qi Baishi, and Huang Binhong, aesthetics have gradually moved towards an artistic path with freehand brushwork as the aim. After Wu Changshuo, Qi Baishi, and other masters, the height reached by Chinese freehand brushwork is difficult for future generations to achieve; or, from a certain perspective, they have reached the artistic peak from the traditional imagery + brushwork aesthetic, leaving little room for future scholars to develop. How to break through this predicament and dilemma of freehand brushwork is a common topic for every artist.

Painting and Calligraphy Academy.
Long Zihui incorporates the study of Qin Zhao inscriptions, Han script, and Six Dynasties inscriptions into her daily practice. Her seal carvings draw inspiration from ancient seals and Han seals, forming her own artistic style characterized by simplicity, depth, ruggedness, and antiquity. She uses freehand brushwork as a form of heteromorphic isomorphism of calligraphy and seal carving, introducing the simplicity and depth of calligraphy and the changes and strangeness of seal carving into Chinese painting creation, forming another form of artistic appearance with personal aesthetic signs. The pursuit of art refers to the principles and values that people pursue beauty and art. The value of art lies in its ability to show the infinite possibilities of human creativity. Through the artist's creation, it can convey emotions, thoughts, and values, and stimulate people's thinking and perception. The spirit of artistic pursuit is also reflected in the pursuit of original works, respect for the artist's creative process and the value of the works, and respect and tolerance for multiculturalism and diversity. The spirit of the pursuit of art is also the pursuit of a better life. The aesthetic value of art can allow people to enjoy the feeling of beauty, enrich the inner world, and improve the quality of life. Art originates from life, is beautiful in life, and is also an indispensable spiritual enjoyment and spiritual food in a beautiful life. Long Zihui is at the right time in her great youth, and she must continue to strive for self-improvement, God rewards diligence, and the wise are teachers. Continue to develop, continue to forge ahead, never forget the original intention and devote yourself to art, pursue the life of art, and perfectly cultivate your artistic life.
