七夕节很快就这么过去了，对于牛郎和织女来说，这一天极其珍贵，有着千言万语却怎么也说不尽，而在这短暂的一天里，同时经历了重逢与再一次的别离。
The Seventh Night of Lunar July or Chinese Valentine’s Day has just gone. As for our legendary “the Cowboy and the Girl Weaver”, this day was very precious for them, having so much need to say to each other. However, how this thousands and thousands of words were enough for just one day? At that special moment, they had to go through the reunion and the departure again.

而当他俩再次相拥又慢慢推开，指尖拂过发丝，轻抚彼此的双手，而后缓缓的滑过手掌到指尖，一寸一寸的分离，直至他俩的距离渐行渐远，彼时时间似乎定格了几秒，在太阳落山之际，一个回到了凡间，一个回到了天间，相隔甚远，朝朝暮暮，恋恋不舍，而又无可奈何。
When they hugged together once more, and slowly pushed away. Their finger went through their hair, caressed their arms, and finally, they traced down to their palms. A step closer to their fingertips, a step closer to their departure. As the distance became far far away, the sun was setting down. At that moment, it seemed the time had stopped there for seconds. He came down the Mortal World, and she went back the Milky Way, leaving for themselves to miss each other day and night, and to feel helpless and reluctant again.

随后的几天，一股强大的气流在各个城市集结，好似吸收了来自各地爱情的苦情长短、幽幽怨怨与悲欢离合，瞬时形成了一支强大的军团，这一自然巨兽——台风。它四处横虐，步步吞噬每一座城市，所到之处，席卷每一栋建筑、每一条街、每一个小巷，偶尔大声长啸，“呼呼”的咆哮声顿时灌满整个空间，在漆黑的夜晚，回声阵阵。而后“哗啦啦”，硕大的雨滴一个接着一个坠落，夹杂着狂风，洗刷着尘世间的爱情粉尘，敲打在玻璃窗上砰砰作响，好似在向人们倾诉：“是的，这就是爱情。”
The days after that festival, there’s strong turbulence formed from many cities as if it absorbed all sorts of affections for LOVE from various cities, gathering feelings of resentful, bitterness, sadness and happiness to turn into a strong army – Typhoon. This nature monster devoured each city he dropped by, invading every corner of the city from buildings to buildings, from blocks to blocks, from streets to streets. Sometimes, he roared at somewhere. The howling was shattered into lots of echos, bouncing back in the darkness night. Then the huge raindrops became falling down one by one. Together with the fierce wind, the storm washed away the specks of magic love dust among the mortal world, banging on the windowpanes violently, as if it poured out:” Yes, this is what they say, LOVE.”

凝望着窗外，黑漆漆的云朵在天空中不断的翻滚着，宛如搅拌着人们的内心，渴望着在心头灌注甘甜的雨露，寻觅到一个不为人知的世外桃源，亦或一个秘密花园，一片不受干扰的心境。
Watching outside the window, I saw the dark clouds kept turning and running beyond the sky, implying what kind of tickling from deep inside of people’s hearts. And they wanted to find an unknown place, a secret garden, an undisturbed inner peace.

闭上双眼，深呼一口气，又慢慢吐出，内心深处一颗炙热的心，快速跳动直至缓慢平稳，彼时时间停止了挪动，周围不再是嘈杂一片，远处隐隐约约传来了鸟语。
I closed my eyes, took a deep breath, and slowly breathed out, waiting for my heartbeat to be steady. At that moment, I felt like I lost track of the time. The birds were twittering somewhere in the distance. There’s no more noises, no more roaring, and no more howling.

揭开郁郁葱葱的树林，手背下意识得挡住那强烈的阳光，而后贪婪得深呼一口气——有着阳光的味道和青青的小草。一只蝴蝶从我身边飞过，视线随即跟随着它舞动的姿态往远处推移，幽静的湖泊映入眼帘。
I crossed the dense trees, covering the strong sunlights with the other hands. There’s sweet-smelling sunshine and wild grass came all the way to my nose. I took a long sniff greedily. A butterfly flew beside me, my eyes followed it to a beautiful and vast lake for someone to explore.

几束阳光透过云层，洒向湖边的亭子。在那儿，四面环山、环湖萦绕、花儿漫山遍野、蝴蝶翩翩起舞。一阵微风拂过，树叶沙沙作响，湖面顿时波光粼粼。几片落叶，随风飘动，搅动着空气中的阳光粉尘，飞飞杨扬，隐秘于灿烂的阳光之中……
The sunlight shined through clouds, laying soft lights on the pavilion near the bank. This was a place where mountains and lake embraced it, a place where flowers all around it, a place where butterflies danced freely. Trees were rustling, lake was sparkling, and leaves were falling. Here came the gentle breeze, offering invisible wing to the leaves. The leaves flew to the sky, stirring clouds of dust that hidden in the air. Where were they going? They disappeared in the sun…

或许，牛郎织女彼此的内心深处也藏匿着这么一个境地，因为，无论TA在哪里，哪里就是伊甸园。相爱不易，全世界中能寻觅到彼此，可谓大海捞针，而能双双坠入爱河，更是难能可贵。为此，我画了这幅《遗失的秘境》，向大家呈现大自然的另一面，正如爱情的两面性一样，实则更多的是你看待爱情的态度，什么样的心境决定了什么样的画面。
As for our legendary “the Cowboy & the Girl Weaver”, they too might have a secret place concealed in the deep of their hearts. Because, wherever the loved one is, there’s EDEN. It’s not that easy to be loved. It’s like finding a needle in a haystack if you find each other in the whole world. Not alone to be fallen in love. It’s a killer to find a soul mate, a perfect one that really fits. That’s why I draw this painting, or “A Secret Place to Fall”, to show another image of nature. Love is like this nature has two sides. What kind of picture you have it depends on what you think about your own love.

好好珍惜身边的TA，多一份陪伴、多一份包容、多一份耐心、多一份真诚、多一份理解、多一份互助、多一份体谅，因为爱情很是脆弱，情绪化的它仿佛这台风可以是变化无常，时而欢声笑语，时而暗淡无光，时而怒不可遏，时而郁郁寡欢。
Take good care and cherish the one you loved. Try to spend more time with your special one for love is always patient and kind, is sincere and considerate, is understanding and supportive. Love is fragile and emotional, which will make you feel being blessed, being hurtful, being upset, being joyful, etc. It just like this typhoon, it came with the storm and left with the gentle breeze.

此时此刻，窗外已是阳光明媚，宛如上天漏关了一扇窗，美景从那儿逃离了出来。我们家狗狗也坐在飘窗边，贪恋得望着，许久许久，直到阳光慢慢地将它的耳朵尖染成了亮金色……
Right now, it’s already a clear day as if the god has left the window open, enabling the beauty escape from heaven. My dog sits on the windowsill, watching at the flying butterflies outside the window for a while. He does not willing to look away until his tip of the ears is covered in light golden color. The sun is coming out…

PS：这两幅新作依旧为4K画质，并即将运用于实际室内项目中，成为客厅大画幅背景墙的一个整体，我们翘首以待吧。
These two artworks are still in 4K resolution, which will be applied in an interior project. It’ll be part of the wall decoration for living room. Let’s look forward to it, shall we? 😀
