WATER color paintings by young Chinese artists Lu Xiaohong, Han Fei, Wang Jun and Bao Xintian are on display at the Nanshan Cultural and Sports Center. Visitors can also purchase their works at the exhibition.

    Organized by Bingxi Culture Company from Nanjing and Shenzhen's AC Orange Company, the exhibition aims to connect art with the public and provide a relaxing space for city dwellers. Han's and Wang's paintings are elegant and meticulous with delicate brushstrokes and light colors. Han's bird and flower paintings use highly detailed brushstrokes. Wang also delimits details very precisely in her renditions of rabbits and squirrels. Wang's paintings of the Cheshire Cat and the White Rabbit, two characters from "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland," are marvelous for their vivid and careful realist technique.

    Different from the aforementioned two painters, Bao's landscape paintings are intricate with strong colors while Lu's paintings of urban people are expressive. The two adeptly vary the ink density to achieve astonishing variations in tonality and shading.
