结识张岩是在2005年9月,当时他作为访问学者进入我的工作室学习。给人最初的印象是言语不多,但善于思考。后来逐渐发现,他是一位谦逊而敢于否定自己的人,刚见他的第一部画集,我对他的画提出了尖锐的批评意见,他静听默识。几个月之后,没想到去庐山时,张岩携了一卷作业让我看,他的画已有了不同,对于以前画面中存在的问题有了明显的改观。2006年底在常州办画展,他的画风已基本上形成新的面貌,受到普遍首肯后,他便一头扎进了中国画的经典里。 Zhang Yan met Zhang in September 2005, when he was a visiting scholar in my studio. Give the initial impression is not many words, but good at thinking. Later, I gradually realized that he was a man who was humble and dared to deny himself. He just saw his first collection of paintings. I made sharp criticisms of his paintings and he listened to the silent words. A few months later, when I did not expect to go to Lushan Mountain, Zhang Yan took a roll of assignments for me to see that his paintings have been different and have obviously changed the problems existing in the previous pictures. By the end of 2006 to do an exhibition in Changzhou, his style has basically formed a new look, by universal approval, he plunged into the Chinese painting classics.
