The painter's scenery is everywhere

Forget yourself between heaven and earth

Feel the beautiful poetry brought by nature

No deliberate corner modification

All from The uncanny workmanship of nature

Except for the flowers and plants on the roadside

Between our forgotten mountains, plains and capes

Concept, experiment, arrange elements, and find the best way to make the theme shine

The best way to learn is to always make yourself work hard

The mentality of trying to improve one's technical level

I especially like a sentence

Seeing mountains is mountains, seeing water is water

De-literal understanding

You can only see the mountains in Kimball's painting

Until you see the water, you understand the water in the painting
