With the development of China, many traditional ink paintings(水墨画)show the changes in southern Chinese villages. Shang Xinzhou, a painter from the Guangxi Arts University, has been creating traditional ink paintings for many years. His paintings show the life in poor areas.
"Thanks to my experience in Duomai Village, I can make the paintings much lovelier," said the 36-year- old painter, who has spent two and a half years working there.
Shang's paintings show the progress in the fight againstpoverty. His works show changes from difficult local conditions and people's hard times to better conditions and happy lives.
"I like drawing people's real lives, and paintings can be a bridge for communication between the local people and me." said Shang.
During his stay, he put his paintings about the local life on the Internet to help villagers sell their products. To make the night life there richer, he sold paintings to buy street lights, so people could enjoy square dancing in the evening.
Shang's excellent works were popular in the village. "I love his paintings and they show great changes in our village," said a farmer.
In recent years, more artists have traveled to mountain villages to record the development of China's poor areas, telling stories of the country's fight against poverty. "I've seen the local poverty alleviation. I want to record the changes of the poor areas and create more works about people," said Shang.
