Zhang Xiong Art correspondence  Beijing Hanhai 2014 Autumn Auction and the 20th Anniversary of Beijing Hanhai Auction were held in Beijing Kerry Center Hotel from Dec. 24 to 26, 2014.  Li Yaolin’s Morning Sunshine All in the Eyes (136*68cm)was hammered at ¥172,500.

After his Mountains and Rivers Dyed in Morning Sunlight was collected by the Great Hall of the People, Li Yaolin created Morning Sunshine All in the Eyes in celebration of the successful convention of  18th CPC National Congress. From Li’s painting, We can feel more of the dimensional relationship between mountains and trees. A three-dimensional and complicated natural conception is built by contrast of the light and shade. We can also feel more of the spatial relationship between object image and time and space change. He breaks the plane and far visual sense of traditional Chinese painting and creates a greater visual impact of three dimensions. Clumps of trees are unfolded layer by layer from near to far. The earth which breeds the trees is full of inexhaustible power with the clear arrangement of space. Blending and shading of colors and inks give boundless imagination space.
