In "Still Life with Watermelon", Wang uses the still-life subjects to explore formal qualities of painting: color, line, shape, light, composition, and texture. Like the objects themselves, his paintings are wonderfully layered. The artist's unique ability to use paint in unexpected ways draws us into the picture. In "Still Life with Watermelon", the artist paints the subject using heavy, colorful strokes thereby transforming the oil paint into a dense and buttery feast for the eyes.

For over 20 years Jian Wang has been serving bountiful helpings of color to audiences in the form of landscapes and still lifes rendered in vibrant oil paint. Deep orange, emerald green, and luscious lavender suffuse his sumptuous works, inviting us to revel in the inspirational beauty around us.
