Wang's painting is a perfect combination of Chinese ink-and-wash style with oil painting skills. At a distance one will view the work as a beautiful traditional creation; yet on closer inspection, one can easily find a strong sense of realism by the detailed depiction of the subject, making one think of Van Gogh's Vase with Fifteen Sunflowers.

Wang's unique style is widely recognized and his works are collected and exhibited by a number of national and private galleries in France, Germany and Italy.

"I think the key to developing Chinese contemporary fine art is to absorb western techniques and make it serve Chinese traditional creations," Wang said.
