Han Feizi's "Jie Lao" said: "Tao is the reason why everything is so, and everything is so." Tao is the inevitable changing law of all things, and crane is one of the spiritual strengths of all things. Crane painters must master the code of crane's description skills and the aesthetic way of crane's existence according to its special form and the truth of its existence in special fields. Chen Jiuguai has a soft spot for cranes, and his understanding of cranes ranges from plane to three-dimensional, from copying to realism, from the sublimation of lines to emotional appeal, from the local space-time to infinity, from the composition of objects to abstraction, and so on. He inherited and carried forward the most outstanding technical essence of China's paintings, borrowed and studied the use of color and light in western paintings, emphasized the description of specific plots of objects, and expressed some meanings or symbols. At the same time, Chen Jiuguai paid great attention to in-depth practice in his artistic career, and he knew the structure of cranes like the back of his hand in his long-term relationship with them. He rationally emphasized the subtle differences around the crane structure line and described them in detail. Only when the painting is done, the curve can fluctuate, the details can be enlarged and coherent. His resourceful talent and industrious and simple personality endow him with the species attribute, body vocabulary and shaping skills of cranes, vividly display his vivid and agile aesthetic feeling, and embark on a unique road of painting cranes.
Throughout the long development of flower-and-bird painting art in China, the art of cranes is closely related to the traditional longevity and auspicious culture in China.

Guided by his innovative and unique painting idea, Chen Jiuguai's idea is to expand and create contemporary cranes and flowers and birds in China as the ideological realm and artistic realm. Taking its multi-dimensional painting language as the artistic theme, such as realism and virtuality, profundity and profundity, concreteness and abstraction, fantasy and magic, nature and humanity, and dynamic and harmonious environment, it has pushed the ancient and traditional crane and flower art in China to a new height, promoted a new artistic realm, and expressed the artist's unique traditional cultural heritage and aesthetic ideal of "thinking about the Millennium and visiting Wan Li".
Li Kejian, a famous art critic, commented in an article after visiting Chen Jiuguai's crane works: The traditional theme and style of cranes are mostly based on the way of thinking and composition, and the expression is relatively thin. The overall innovation of Chen Jiuguai crane art is to integrate the idea of "novelty" with the artistic realm of Fushou culture. Those who have lofty thoughts and vision will expand and show great realm, great thoughts and great beauty, especially the crane itself. Dynamic and smooth line modeling, colorful artistic background, ingenious color charm and vivid beauty of details fully express the artist's yearning for life consciousness of heaven and earth, as well as the rendering of contemporary crane art realm and the promotion of artistic value.
