Traditional Chinese painting inherits tradition and is determined to innovate.

Traditional cultural accomplishment cannot be lacking.

At present, in the field of Chinese painting creation, China's traditional cultural literacy is generally lacking, forming a unique phenomenon called China cultural anemia. As a famous Shanghai school said, today's Chinese painting needs to be passed down more than innovation. This inheritance does not simply refer to painting techniques, but more importantly, it is an attitude towards China culture. Chinese painting must break the foundation of China culture. Nowadays, many people want to "type out" before they can "type in". However, the spiritual core and aesthetic standards of Chinese painting have always been closely related to the traditional culture of China. In traditional painting theory, Chinese painting is called "elegance of literature" or "elegance of literature". Both Yu and Ji emphasize that China's traditional cultural accomplishment is the foundation of Chinese painting. The creation of contemporary Chinese painting should be strongly supported by China's cultural accomplishment and truly become an inseparable part of China culture. The inheritance of traditional cultural spirit is the foundation of the development and innovation of China's calligraphy and painting. If we leave this premise, reference will become substitution, and the result of development and innovation is alienation.

2. Humanistic care is indispensable.

Although artistic creation is not as good as literary works to reveal social contradictions and complexity, art, as an image, can reflect the spiritual outlook of each era, which is its unique value. "It is very important for modern Chinese painting to find people's cultural orientation." Humanistic care is an indispensable element of modern Chinese painting, and only works with artists' humanistic care can make people move.

Art must come from life.

Art only comes from life, so does Chinese. Only by going deep into life, experiencing life, drawing inspiration from life and creating works with true feelings from life can we stand the test of time.
