- The Art of YuanMing He’s World
Born and raised in the SiChuan province of China, an area most known for wonderful and spicy cuisine, He YuanMing began to cultivate his own spice of life. Nicknamed “The Cowboy” for his free spirit and ease with which he mingled among the horses, bulls, and nature, it wasn’t until the 1980’s that YuanMing received his first Distinguished Artist award. Many of his paintings have been published by the SiChuan Art Publishing House and have been selected for international exhibitions in Hong Kong, Africa, Europe, and the U.S. Already listed in the Who’s Who in Chinese Contemporary Art (the definitive dictionary of Chinese Artists), YuanMing now resides in California, US where he continues to bring works of art and wonder to collectors.
In the 1990’s his work moved toward a complex and time consuming finger painting method, often buffered by a whimsical multi-colored ink splashing technique. During this time, his work was shown in numerous galleries in China culminating with an invitation for a solo showing in Singapore. In 1995, he published his first feature book entitled The Collected Works of He YuanMing.
After publishing his Golden Bull Series, YuanMing immigrated to the U.S. in 1996 where he was honored by a San Francisco Bay Area exhibition. Only 1 year after his arrival in the U.S., he was named the Outstanding Artist by the city of Cupertino, California, clearly American enthusiasts had discovered YuanMing’s work. In 1999 he was asked to hold an exhibition at Mountain View City Hall, and subsequently published A Chinese Artist in America documenting his latest work since moving away from his homeland.
YuanMing began expanding his style into abstract work in 2000 and presented the He YuanMing New Millennium Exhibition in San Francisco. Discovering the joys of giving back to the community and sharing his precious gift with a new generation, YuanMing introduced the first and second “International Art Competition for Children” and compiled a publication Collection of Selected Children’s Art. During 2003 and 2004, YuanMing held 5 exhibitions in North America and publish his 3rd collection of works: The Art World of He YuanMing.
Clinging to his ideals and representing the tradition and respect of Chinese art, YuanMing pulls on only the joyous and bitter experiences that makes up his 40 years as an artist. YuanMing has been honored by television, newspapers, and magazine articles; however collectors in America have only just begun to appreciate his work. He YuanMing continues to challenge himself to seek new heights of creativity, merely expressed through his hand onto paper, to be collected and cherished for generations.

我的中国风
对过去的整理中，2006-2007年的几个月里作的这批画，因当时临习书法---毛笔画上题款---可否是典型中国画风？
请指正--也愿您喜欢。

我是何远鸣,先想说一声:对不起!
尊敬的MISS NANCV KA 您好！
真诚地感谢您在百忙帮我的一切。
我是何远鸣,先想说一声:对不起!关于《何远鸣馬到成功(矽谷小记)》我本十分喜欢。很冒眜，没经您的许可，把小记有误处作了些许改动,万请原谅，
一. 早在1998年，我出版的A CHINESE ARTIST IN AMERICA《旅美画家何远鸣》畫集前，就写成了《東，還是西？》同时请友人翻译成英文发表并作为畫集的前言。此畫集1999年印刷3000册。（USA-CHINA-此书目前世上仍很多）。也就是说“東，還是西？”绝不是因为，我读了北京青年报2007年4月发表的李瑞環先生2002年的有关“尊重國畫规律”… Continue

东？还是西？（三）—奔马圖隋筆 何遠鳴 2007 北京
—奔马圖隋筆 何遠鳴 2007 北京
馬的精神是什麼？獨往獨來—是自由。马是人們都喜欢的動物。還有兒时的天真。近几年，喜欢北京的賈先生和河北的趙先生的馬。艺海無涯，從徐悲鴻，黃冑，到韓美林，從馬踏胸奴昭陵六駿，到汗血寳馬小馬王，千錘百練。昨天的被今天否定，明天又否定了今天。否定否定，尋求和造就心中理想的画风，何止廢畫三千，廢畫八千！
多年來我常常零晨2.3點起床作畫，喜欢用四尺，六尺全開，放手大寫，或者干脆用磐子，用手指用手掌。信手凃寫 。—这些意象的作品似是而非。鬃毛和馬尾--只用一筆或以一筆為主畫成，这是馬最有特點，也是最能夠把中國毛筆盡情发揮到… Continue
