Pasta is a tradition unique to spring festivals and, for fishermen, they also have their own annual drawings — fisherman's drawings. There was an old man on the edge of lake hongzawa who, with the art of painting pens, expressed the praise and desire of the people of the fishing area for a better life, his name being liu jinxiang。
Liu jinxiang, 66 years old, was a retired worker who, as a child, had a keen interest in colorful annual drawings, which he had studied since he was 13 years old, for more than 50 years. And he said, "when i was a kid, i was a fisherman, and i learned it from a teacher, and i kept it for years."
As a result of his family's stay on hongzawa lake, liu jinxiang knew that on new year's eve, every fisherman would hang a picture on board the boat, and at midday the beginning of the year, he would take it from the bottom and use it for the new year. However, it is difficult to buy the annual painting that the hongzawa lake people love, and liu is determined to create。
The annual painting of fishermen by liu jinxiang is a happy story of the fishermen's people, such as the map, the king and the fairies, and a lively folk image of the god of wealth and the bell. Most of the topics are worshipping the ancestors, appeasement and blessing, symbolizing the long life of qi and looking forward to the next year's harvest. A colorful, morphological picture of the year reveals a strong sense of age and is widely praised by fishermen。
In order to facilitate the painting of fishermen's friends, liu jinxiang specifically bought a fishing boat to live on lake hongzawa. At the end of each year, many of the boatmen came to liu jinxiang's house to look for a painting, which took one or two months, but he was happy to do so. He stated that the annual paintings belonging to fishermen's friends were not only of artistic value, but also contained a great deal of human information and felt sweet as long as they were able to please them。
