Features: Wang Xiaoyong's realism not only absorbs the modern concepts of Western sketching and color while correcting the conceptual tendencies of traditional meticulous painting but also fully utilizes the meticulous strengths of meticulous painting while maintaining flat, striving for extreme precision. The proportions, structures, and textures of the depicted objects are rendered with greater accuracy and depth, especially the personalities and spiritual pursuits of characters rooted in life. This greatly enhances the Chinese approach to "depicting spirit through form." He does not overlook the role of lines in shaping, but integrates them into the blocks, reducing their framing function in shaping while highlighting the expressive function of color, allowing lines and color to complement each other. At the same time, he combines the precision of shaping ability with the liveliness of spatial treatment, closely integrating the subject with the environment in a visually unified organic relationship, enriching artistic expression.
