Born in Tianjin in April 1958, Li Jin’s paintings are based on the “ordinary paintings of ordinary people”. Through the depiction of life scenes, the subtle tastes between family and family are reflected. His understanding of sketches is covered in the techniques of Chinese ink painting, and combines contemporary expression color with national culture. In China’s long-standing cultural tradition, he has found a development path of contemporary art with unique style. Feng Xiaocai commented on his paintings and said: “Li Jin’s works are always idealistic return to the past idyllic; as for his modern image of the cultural change in the rural homeland of the East, it should be a deep rich The spiritual symbol and cultural symbol of philosophy revelation.” He is one of the most outstanding young painters in China and is called the most spiritual and talented artist by the art world. He is currently an associate professor of the Fine Arts Education Department of the Tianjin Academy of Fine Arts and a member of the Academic Committee.
