In this fast-paced era, we often ignore the quiet and deep beauty around us. But fortunately, there is a group of artists who use pens as pens and black and white colors to paint breathtaking works of art. Today, let's get close to the six most outstanding pen painting masters in China, and feel their colorful lives and unyielding artistic pursuits.

Xu Yahua, born in 1958 on the banks of the picturesque Tiaoxi River, is a leading figure in Chinese realistic pen painting. Since childhood, he has been fond of pen painting, and his brushwork, whether it is the focus of "The Craftsman" or the delicacy of "The Knife in the Plate", all reveal his deep insight into life and the ultimate pursuit. In his more than 40 years of painting career, Xu Yahua has dabbled in almost all kinds of paintings, and finally chose pen painting as the ultimate destination of his artistic expression. He insists on not selling his works, just to be able to immerse himself in the world of black and white art more purely, and use lines to record the imprints of those ancient villages that are about to disappear.
#### 02 Li Jingfeng: Rigor and perseverance in pen painting
Li Jingfeng, from Anshan, Liaoning Province, is an outstanding graduate of the Decoration Department of Lu Xun Academy of Fine Arts, and an outstanding academician of the People's Artist Painting and Calligraphy Academy.

Li Jingfeng's pen strokes have both the delicacy of charcoal and the texture of oil painting, and each stroke reveals his rigorous and meticulous creative attitude. He is well aware of the difficulty of creating pen paintings, so he devotes a lot of effort and time to each work, just to present a wonderful art world in the world of black and white.
