1999 Yang retired, got rid of teaching and administrative affairs, and had time and energy to concentrate on his creation. It can be said that it is the "golden period" and harvest period of his creation. Some large-scale works, two horses, four-meter and five-meter shovels, came out at this time. In 2000, his 100 works appeared in Wen Yi Building, Shaanxi Province, and received enthusiastic response. Then, he was invited to give lectures and hold exhibitions in the United States for many times, which contributed to the promotion of artistic exchanges between China and the United States and left the American people with the special charm of China's flower-and-bird paintings. In 2003, he was hired as a special honorary professor of the Department of Art by bridgewater University, Massachusetts, USA. From June 5438 to 10, 2009, he was invited to give a special lecture on "The Legend of Painting Master Qi Baishi and Painting Art" at Columbia University, USA, and was also invited to hold a large-scale exhibition "Dialogue between Metropolis and Nature-Yang, the successor of the famous flower and bird painter Qi Baishi's ink painting art" at the Asian Cultural Center in Manhattan, new york, USA. 20 13, 10 The Academy of Fine Arts of Plymouth University, New Hampshire, USA held Yang's fourth American Art Exhibition on China National Day.

Yang's entry into Qi School benefited from the careful teaching of Qi Baishi's female disciple professor for decades. He worked hard in Qi School and inherited the vigorous, smooth, simple and natural interest of Qi School's freehand flower-and-bird painting. Qi Baishi said, "If you learn from me, you will live as if I were dead." Yang has always adhered to the principle of "not doing what he wants" advocated by Qi Baishi. While absorbing the techniques of Qi painting school, Yang did not pursue the likeness of brushwork and painting style, but devoted himself to learning his creative spirit and exploring and developing his own artistic vocabulary. He doesn't hold a different view, absorbs the strengths of many teachers and is inclusive. In Shaanxi, besides, he also humbly studied Zhao's pen and ink, Wang Shaozun's unrestrained and beautiful learning; As a predecessor, he devoted himself to Gu Zhuo, Pan Tianshou's sudden emergence and Li Kuchan's heroic strength. I also respect the inspiration of Yao Dianzhong, and prefer the exquisite beauty of Ren Bonian. Therefore, he gained the essence of traditional pen and ink and completed his apprenticeship. Born as a teacher, he walked into nature, paid attention to observing and sketching, and sought innovation and change, and gradually formed his own unique painting style and freehand brushwork. The flowers, birds, insects and fish in his paintings are colorful, fresh and magnificent, especially the lifelike aquarium goldfish and the ultimate bird, which have won praise in the painting world.

Yang, majoring in university literature, studied under Yao Dianzhong, a famous master of Chinese studies, and served as a teacher of university poetry writing for more than ten years. The profound cultural heritage makes his flower-and-bird paintings freehand and lofty, which is manifested as "there are poems in paintings, paintings in poems, and poems and paintings are integrated and complement each other". Published by Yang People's Fine Arts Publishing House on 20 12, The Collection of Paintings signed by Mr. Yao Dianzhong is not only a collection of paintings, but also a collection of poems, which is one of the series of paintings of "Dahongpao" by modern masters in China. Yang's works are rich in content, and he is good at expressing his good wishes for the people's better life by using literary techniques such as symbol, sustenance, homonym and implication. With peony and bottled plum as homonyms, I wish people a rich, happy and safe life. Peach, pine crane and plum chrysanthemum symbolize longevity and express the author's thoughts and feelings of wishing the elderly longevity. Use graceful lotus flowers to compare chastity and praise spotless character. All this gives people association, enlightenment and lessons. Yang constantly strives for change and innovation in the use of pen and ink. His pen pays attention to the texture of lines, and the alternate use of center and flank shows the flexibility, elasticity and toughness of different lines; He used water to activate the aura and charm of ink. He used his pen to set ink boldly and flexibly, freehand brushwork, sketching, splashing ink, emphasizing color, sketching, boneless, or alternating, or combining, as far as possible to be subtle, showing magnificent, lively, fresh and natural different styles. In particular, the combination of freehand brushwork and sketch, splash ink and heavy color, show details with color filling and heavy color, splash ink into an adult. It has both overall momentum and key spirit. His large lotus is such an elaborate masterpiece. Skillful qi-moving techniques and profound pen and ink skills have been wonderfully reflected. The pen is free, the ink is vivid and lively, the rhythm is patchy, the style is magnificent, the visual impact is powerful and touching, and the perfect artistic appeal is thought-provoking. In the face of this work, people can't help but think of the famous sentence in Zhou Dunyi's "Love Lotus": "Mud does not touch, clear but not demon, straight and straight, fragrant and clear, graceful and graceful. You can look at it from a distance without being ridiculous! " .

He painted peonies, plum blossoms, chrysanthemums, chickens, ducks and cranes. His pen and ink skills are also very elegant. Painting peony is a blend of color and ink, washed and refined with a pen, with thick ink and heavy color, putting pen to pray for God, and writing freely; Painting plum blossoms and chrysanthemums, or sketching, or stippling, with less wins more, seeking complexity in simplicity and emphasizing form interest. Mo Yun, ink color and line rhythm are studied both inside and outside, which makes the works full of interest and vitality. Painting chickens is his hobby, and Ding Chouwang is his favorite work. He expresses his feelings with things and expresses his will with things. With his skillful pen and ink skills, he artistically painted the rooster with both form and spirit, which was very vigorous and powerful. Yang has a strong pen and ink modeling ability. His paintings of cranes, ducks, mandarin ducks, brown pheasants and peacocks are good at keenly capturing the quick expressions of birds and the mutual affection of taking pictures with care, conveying a unique humanistic charm. This is inseparable from his years of observation, sketching and accumulation. He said: "If you have everything in your heart, you can draw a picture of all kinds of insects and convey the spirit to all kinds of birds." That's true.
