Inscription: 晴岚叠嶂. 忆写南美安弟山脉景色于南加 – Titled as “Clear Mist on Layered Peaks,” painted from memory of Andes Mountains in South America, completed in Southern California

--

The Andes, recalled from memory and set down in ink on a California afternoon. That distance — geographic, temporal — lends the painting a quality of distillation. What survives the journey from experience to brushstroke is only what truly mattered: the sheer verticality of the peaks, the way mist moves between them, and the humbling scale of it all.

A river winds through the valley in thin, pale strokes before gathering itself and cascading down as a waterfall in the lower left — the painting's one moment of audible motion in an otherwise silent landscape.

Rough, dragged strokes texture the cliff faces with geological weight, while the foreground trees are built from short, decisive marks. Mist is handled with restraint — ink diluted to near transparency, the mountains dissolving as memory itself does, gradually and without clear edges.

晴岚叠嶂

安第斯山脉，藏于记忆之中，于加州午后以墨写就。时空之距，反成提炼之机。从经历到落笔，留存下来的唯有真正重要之物：山峰的险峻高耸，云雾在峰间流动的姿态，以及令人心生敬畏的辽阔尺度。

一河以细淡的笔触蜿蜒穿行于山谷之间，在峰峦中寻路而行，而后聚势跌落，化为左下角的瀑布——满幅寂静之中，唯此一处有声。

粗犷的拖笔赋予崖面以地质般的厚重，前景树木以短促果断的笔触写就。云雾处理极为克制——墨色淡至近乎透明，远山如记忆消散，渐渐隐去，不留清晰的边界。
