Master Jin Sheng’s paintings are valuable.
1. Master Jin Sheng is an all-around artist, and his paintings include landscapes, flowers and birds, figures, and animals. Whether it is fine brushwork or freehand brushwork, splash color or ink calligraphy. They may be as large as two feet tall, or as small as less than one foot, all of which reveal extremely high artistic talent without losing personal transcendental Zen and bookishness.
2. Shi Jinsheng, whose common name is Ma Jianjun, was born in Qufu, Shandong. When he was young, he loved calligraphy. Later, he was fortunate to receive guidance from Zhao Puchu, Sha Menghai, Wang Bomin and other masters. He was already well-known in the world of calligraphy and painting when he was young. He was praised as an art prodigy by masters such as Sha Menghai and Qi Gong. At the age of 18, he was influenced by the layman Zhao Puchu and devoted himself to Buddhism. Within three years, he handwritten more than one million words of Buddhist scriptures and donated them to major temples in Jiangnan. Because he liked to write with gold powder, he was praised by Master Zhao Puchu as the golden pen master in the Buddhist world.
