Artist's comments

This artwork is the first in the Little Mountain Spirit series. Little Mountain Spirit is an illustrated children's book based on the classical Chinese literature "Nine Songs— Mountain Spirit". The living creatures in the pictures are inspired by the classical Chinese literature "The Classic of Mountains and Seas". The image hopes to show the little mountain ghost's freedom, wildness, romance, simplicity, and happiness at the beginning of its birth.

The ink works are very beautiful! The intricate details and fluid strokes demonstrate artistry. This unpretentious style brings a unique charm to each piece, the use of ink brings a timeless elegance to the artwork, making it both striking and memorable.

The watercolor technique, with its beautiful textures and airy look, is a great choice for the story, while the character designs further enhance the enchanting atmosphere.

Haimeng Cao


Caicai's use of diluted acrylics and classical Chinese painting to depict the environment and story is impressive. The atmosphere and the mountains are a beautifully illustrated.

Rita Yuwei Li


Impressive aesthetics, the traditional Chinese influence is clearly visible, but it is only in spirit, because the artist's own gesture is strong. This does not always happen, sometimes artists take Chinese aesthetics and they copy the same outline and character design, but here, the artist's unique talent is evident, and that makes his/her/x art more original and enriched with his own way of creating beauty, with his subtle and wild ways of painting.

Lucas León


The artist combines the form of classical Chinese landscape painting very well with mythological themes. The artworks can reflect the artist's excellent control over traditional media.
