Xing Yuan Ri Li Shan (Xing Garden at Mount Rili) by H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III

The artist at Xing Garden created "Xing Garden at Mount Rili" in 1993, which portrays the natural world of steep cliffs. The vibrant green color depicts the widespread moss and grass on the rocks. The painting utilizes the techniques of the "Miaoxie" style, where careful examination of the brushwork reveals interweaving strokes resembling thin wires, creating change, variation, and a multitude of emotions and intrigue through their complexity. The work's spirit reflects the technique's excellence, including the illusory watery ink's limitless appeal. Whether viewed up close or from far, the painting depicts a bottomless waterfall scene with fine, meticulous brushwork. However, if you scrutinize the brushwork's subtle details, you will be amazed by the vigorous brush touches. There is a substance within emptiness and order within seeming chaos. The painting exudes an artistic beauty born of free, natural brush strokes. Through the artist's strength and power of vigorous brush strokes, the painting unveils the extraordinary aesthetic charm lying within the simple scene of a waterfall between two cliffs.

Dorje Chang Buddha III has created Chinese paintings, oil paintings, different styles of calligraphy, etc. In addition to being able to paint in the styles of the currently existing schools of painting, such as the Realism School, the Abstract School, the Line School, the Impressionist School, and other schools, H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III has independently originated 16 unique schools of painting. The ‘Fragrant Loofah in a Purple-Bamboo Forest’ from the ‘Weiyin’ Style of the 16 schools of painting. One day on the darkest of night, the sudden inspiration for this painting flashed into the artist’s consciousness, giving birth to the artistic charm and allure embodied in his work. The rhythm of color galloped across the canvas as soon as the flying brush strokes were completed.
