WuYiping is famous for large ink and color splash, and he advocates to work out innovation from traditional style. He created his own unique style of mixing Chinese and Western features.His creation concept is, “My own works and unique style were thus shaped by painstaking research on works & skills of previous masters; I myself integrate into the beautiful rivers and mountains so that my painting is not only focusing on the physical contour but on the vividness of spirit; Mountains and me, become a harmonious unity, emerging in my dreams always; my heart is as bright as the shining moon while the moonlight stands for the brightness of my heart. Let everything come naturally, and view the whole world in a calm, plain and simple manner..”。
