Li Hongxia

Li Hongxia, female, Han ethnicity, born in 1960, with ancestral roots in Heilongjiang, holds a college degree. Attend primary and secondary school in the courtyard of the East Railway Third Bureau. I used to work at China Railway Third Bureau Line Bridge Company as an archive clerk, with a college degree and a member of the Communist Party of China. Retired, currently from Yanjiao, Sanhe City, Hebei Province. From a young age, she enjoyed using ink and brush as companions. For many years, I have persisted in my free time, reading painting books and copying famous artists' art manuals to enrich my painting skills. When studying at Xianyang Cadre Management College, the painting "Sketching Flower 1 Flower" won the second prize in the 1985 National Day Calligraphy and Painting Competition of the whole school. The character sketch 'Dance' won the third prize in the Xianyang Calligraphy and Painting Competition. After work, participate in a painting competition organized by the company. I once won the first prize in the 1988 Hard Pen Calligraphy Competition organized by my organization. The traditional Chinese painting 'Green Home' won the second prize in the 1989 Shangqiu Workers' New Year Painting Competition.

I have loved painting since childhood, but due to work reasons, I did not have the time or opportunity to engage in systematic learning. Only in my spare time, I self-taught character sketching and copied some works of famous artists. During my studies at Xianyang Cadre Management College in Shaanxi, I won second and third prizes in a painting competition. When I was working at my original workplace, I often participated in some painting competitions organized by the company and also won some awards. Until retirement in 2013, I officially started learning painting knowledge at Yanjiao Senior University and began studying flower and bird painting. In 2018, I officially apprenticed under the guidance of Chinese national etiquette painter Liu Jinming and underwent more systematic learning. Under the tireless teaching and guidance of Professor Liu Jinming, his obsession with painting became unstoppable. Painting has also become my greatest pursuit in my future life. I have now become a member of the China Enterprise Art Federation Calligraphy and Painting Academy. In my future life, I am willing to use the paintbrush in my hand to depict the magnificent rivers and mountains of our great motherland, to express gratitude to my country and my teachers.
