He Qianli: Painting is not only an occupation, but also a form of cognition. Through this form, I place my learned professional skills alongside people's emoti ons and feelings as I come to understand them, and express the beauty of scenery. Fortunately, oil paintings can be preserved for a long time, which gives me a sense of securit y. From my first oil painting, whenever I look at any of my works, whether they be material objects or image files, I can recall ever y detail of every inch in the canvas. Still, even

a small fly on the picture's surface can remind one of the passing of a period of time. Painting is, unfor tunately, just like a cruel mirror that allows me to see my flaws, unreachable heights, and even my incompetence. Yet, I know what is good, and although I may at times stumble and fall behind, I continue to press on endlessly in pur suit of it.
