Wang started his painting career rooted in the traditional literati style of Chinese painting, but as his artistic journey progressed, he increasingly embraced diverse techniques and sought creativity in his works. In Dreaming Mountains, Wang created textures by dipping crumpled paper in ink and pressing it onto the surface. These spontaneous marks served as the foundation, which he then observed and connected to form the landscape in a more intuitive way. This experimental approach not only introduces an innovative highlight to the imagery but also exemplifies a significant departure from the conventional method of creating landscape paintings. The novel texture strokes Wang achieved by chance give the landscape a more fluid rhythm, breaking away from the stereotypical flow of traditional landscapes.Provenance
