The artist's name is lǐtiāndé (Li Tian-De)

He's a friend of Mr. Ou-Yang in Guilin. Born in Yangshou City, Guangxi Province in 1970, he quickly found is calling as a professional artist.

Chinese Artist, Li Tian-De

The artist puts the finishing touches on some artwork

Although he told me that he is a very independent person, he feels very patriotic about his country and hometown. I guess that's why he still lives in the town of his birth, and is quick to tell the fact that his is a "hometown artist".

His specialty is deeply colored and vivid bamboo paintings in a style that he calls "fresh nature".

Li Tian-De signs his artwork with just his given name (Tian-De), so if you are looking for his signature on the painting, you'll just find those two characters along with the character for "by" (meaning "painted by") a common way to sign artwork by Chinese artists.

If you are curious, his given name can be translated as "Good Day".
Tian = "Day"
De = "good", "virtue" or "kindness".
I suppose that his parents were commenting on how they felt on the day he was born when they named him.


This is a freehand style painting using green watercolor paint and black Chinese ink on xuan paper (rice paper) mounted to a beautiful handmade silk scroll.

In Southern China, bamboo is very important as it is used to build houses, small bridges, and is even used for day to day things like chopsticks.

Bamboo has a deeper meaning in Chinese culture. Bamboo represents the aspects to a true noble gentleman. Bamboo is straight (honest) and Chinese people also believe that bamboo represents the modesty, strength, and never gives up because it continues to grow taller and taller. All of the traits of a good man.
