The kind of painting one creates depends on the “heart” of the creator. “Heart” in this sense, is akin to “Comprehension”; both the conscious and subconscious comprehension and awareness of a multitude of sensory inputs. The “heart” has the same foundation and is the source of paintings, and paintings are the materialized presentation of the “heart”. Paintings preserve the “heart” within, waiting to be discovered by its viewer. — Li Lei 2006
