Yang Shan-Shen is one of the most representative artists
of the second generation of the Lingnan School of Painting. Specialized
in bird and flower, figure, landscape painting and excelled in
calligraphy, he is open-minded to adopt the strength of archaic and
modern, the Eastern and Western painting techniques. His paintings are
therefore considered not entirely conformed to the original direction of
the School. He establishes his own style by the application of dry
textural strokes.
