Traditional style aims to capture beauty of nature (3)

Yu's works have also been displayed in a range of national and international exhibitions. From 1986 to 1997, he held his exhibitions in such places as Beijing, Guangzhou and New York.

Both the themes and artistic techniques have won widespread praise in the past years. Yu's works tend to be more elaborate and decorative than many others of the same genre.

While observing traditional rules, he uses accurate lines, powerful brush movements, contrasting gradations of ink, space, as well as the interplay between dark and light to represent the harmony and vitality of nature.

Though he adopts a realistic style, Yu said he tries to imbue his work with eternal spiritual beauty through his brush.

"That feeling later turned into the images of chirping birds and elegant flowers in my paintings."
