Using pen and ink, rich and varied, novel and ingenious composition, prominent theme, dense and well-organized, alternating between reality and reality, poetic, fresh and smooth is his unique style. Ren Bonian's main achievements are figure painting and flower-and-bird painting. Often with only a few strokes, he can express the whole expression of the characters, with little pen and ink and far-reaching artistic conception. Its lines are simple and steady, powerful and unique. He often painted Zhong Kui, and Zhong Kui he painted was open-minded, not afraid of ghosts and not believing in evil. In his flower-and-bird paintings, flowers are always associated with birds, which stand out, and flowers are sometimes only used as the background, so the whole picture is full of poetic artistic conception.

Exquisite ladies' paintings are close to fees, while exaggerated and fantastic figure paintings Chen Hongshou became a street sketch director with strong decoration. Later, he practiced pencil drawing and became more idle. In his later years, he absorbed China's (rock-and-roll) brushwork and became more simple and flexible. Vivid works, such as Three Friends, shaping the shape of Shafu and the image of Zhong Ying, can be said to reveal the shape of the gods.
As far as Ren Bonian's personal artistic attainments are concerned, his flower-and-bird painting skill is relatively high. As far as the painting world was concerned at that time, his character influence was relatively great, because there were fewer painters who painted characters at that time, and even fewer people achieved high achievements. With Ren Bonian's accomplishments, he was naturally pushed aside.

There were a lot of paintings in the 1990s, but ideologically, they did not seem to surpass those in the 1980s. However, their artistic techniques are more skillful, bold and generalized, especially the flower-and-bird paintings, which have reached a perfect level.
