modern landscape presents a diversified pattern, the traditional
techniques of performance stylization, has made many painters
works laid the feeling of similar. Even if it is still to learn widely from
others' strong points, but still grafting of fruit trees, the fruit
only growers shouted sweet by themselves. To enjoy the landscape painting as
the taste of fruit, it will hurt the artist and painter, so each worked in the
process, the wisdom to spend far more than planting fruit trees. Grafting is
obviously many painters called the techniques most widely learn from others' strong
points. The same brush displays hundreds of brushwork in the same work,
creating a "whole" personality style, which can cater many markets of
"aesthetic" today. Obviously, this is only a new personality style
works, under the impact of aesthetic ease. I first read the Pan Jianbo’s
landscape, long aesthetic comfort by his vast simplicity and personalized artistic
language to wake up, make me have to chew again and again, get to the bottom of
its taste.

Pan
Jianbo's landscape does not pursue figurative realism. This reminds me
of Mr. Wu Guanzhong said, cannot read the image of beauty, called the beauty blind.
Pan Jianbo's natural landscape artistic conception is not to let the beauty blind
find fault. An excellent landscape painter is bound to save
his life and make great achievements. Brush and ink, stippling, run
to dye, just the painter's personality language, art creation is not only
dependent on the basic drawing skills, those who work outside
the brush, ink of the gas is more
important than painter pure and solid strength.

Brush
and ink techniques as a means of convey meaning for the purpose. The
usual way of brushwork conveys the usual artistic conception, and
the unique brush rule can express the unique freshness. Whether it is profound
or not, it should be chewed again and again. A good picture is like a cup of
tea, too sweet to charming, fresh is alright. To be a man is to be rational,
but to do art more rational is to be rigid. People say that the ancients were
honest to be a man, for art naughty, modern people cunning, for the arts rigid.
However, Pan Jianbo and his paintings, make this difficult stand.

Whether
his life experience, or art career experience, Pan Jianbo has crossed the stage
of copy. The depth of life, feelings of nature, in the mountains of arms to search
queer peeks, a step by step epiphany, he created a unique style of art. No
matter in the painters gathered capital, or the simple native land
of Jiaodong, Pan Jianbo is reclaiming a fresh
and natural art space.
