This is a larger size wall scroll than we normally get from Xiao Meng.

This is a tough one to explain. The literal translation of the artist's title leaves you wondering.

Well, in this case, think of what a rhyme is...
I will define the Chinese version of rhyme as, "Words that match in some way, and fall into place". When you hear them, they seem to belong together and create a pleasing sound.

In the Autumn, things just happen, one after the other, like they are supposed to. The birds migrate, the leaves turn orange, and life continues the cycle as it has done for eternity. So, everything just fits together, and falls into place.


This is painted on special xuan paper (rice paper) with then mounted to a hand-made silk scroll.

One of the artists of the Xiao Meng Asian Art Gallery

Chen Wei-Ling puts the finishing touch signature
on the beautiful Asian Artwork that
she and her husband created for me.

This hand-painted artwork is from the

Xiao Meng Asian Art Collection

The artists of this collection are actually a married couple who travel around China together looking for subjects to paint. Their real names are Chen Yong Ping and Chen Wei Ling but they sign all of their work under the single pen name Xiao Meng.

They work as a team on most of these paintings. One of them does the background and the other will handle the detail work on each painting.

The artists take great pride in the fact that they have developed their own unique painting style which they call "hazy painting" (this is roughly translated - it sounds better in Chinese).

They use a combination of "freehand style" and "elaborate style" in their paintings. The background is done using broad fast strokes and spray with very thin paint. The foreground (cranes) are done with a lot of detail using a delicate technique with a very fine brush.
