How did Huang's painting style come into being?

Since the 1920s, the painting circles in Jiangnan (Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Anhui and other places) with Shanghai as the center have gradually changed the situation of sticking to the "Four Kings, Wu and Yun" in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. On the one hand, the painter turned his attention to the Song and Yuan Dynasties, on the other hand, he began to find his own way out from sketching. The four monks, Yangzhou School of Painting, epigraphy calligrapher and Shanghai School in the early Qing Dynasty all became the focus of attention of painters in this period. Organizing art exhibitions, establishing publications and holding exhibitions are all forms of their activities, and they are very active for a time. As Shanghai was the number one trading port and foreign cultural window of China at that time, various painters gathered here to find their own world. Nanjing and Hangzhou have the famous National Central University and Hangzhou Art College respectively. Due to the needs of teaching and the established cultural traditions of the two places, a large number of artists with various faces have been attracted to live in the two places. In this blooming atmosphere, a number of outstanding painters stand out, among which Huang, Pan Tianshou, Fu Baoshi and Zhang Daqian are outstanding representatives.
