Qi Baishi, a master of traditional Chinese painting, became famous at the age of 60 and became famous at the age of 90. British female writer Doris Lessing, 88, won the 2007 Nobel Prize for Literature. Liang Hao's 82-year-old No.1 was written into the three-character Sutra to inspire countless posterity. Chu Shijian, a former tobacco king and now the founder of Chu Orange, is very legendary. He created a legendary life of starting a business for the second time in his rare years and creating resplendence again.

Some people divide the modern elderly into three stages: young people at the age of 6070, middle-aged people at the age of 7080, and old people over 90 years old. Born in the 1950s, we should be in the prime of our youth. Although we have retired from jobs such as culture and art education, the old horse in the stable still wants to run a thousand miles.

At the seventh Congress of Jiangxi artists Association at the end of 2017, Cao Liyun was elected vice chairman of Jiangxi artists Association. Now he is invited by Guangzhou University to serve as a visiting professor and give lectures to graduate students.

In the face of one inspirational story after another, the students were deeply encouraged and inspired and applauded for the resplendence of their old age. However, what is more worthy of our praise is that we are already a leader in the industry, but also cross-border learning and exploration, and effective people! For example, Zheng Xiaolan, a classmate of Ji'an, when she was in office, she popularized and improved the local culture, trained a large number of talents for music education, achieved fruitful results and students all over the world, and was admitted as a member of the Chinese musicians Association in her early years.

She can enjoy the rest of her life by virtue of her natural beauty, tall stature, elegant temperament, status and reputation. However, she is not satisfied with the current situation. After retiring from the Jizhou District Cultural Center in Ji'an City, she joined the "Flower and Bird painting Class" of Ji'an Geriatric University. At the same time, he Shaoxun, vice president of the Chinese artists Association, director of the Chinese calligrapher's Association and visiting professor of the Chinese calligraphy and painting Research Institute, studied traditional Chinese painting. Because of her diligent study, perseverance and good understanding, she will soon be able to make her debut. His works have won prizes in provincial and municipal painting and calligraphy competitions for the elderly many times. The work "Autumn Chrysanthemum Picture" won the gold medal in the 2017 Sunset Red Confucius Literature and Art Cup National University Literature and Art Competition for the elderly!

Ms. Cai Xiaofeng, senior member of the Chinese calligrapher's Association, associate professor of the Art Department of Beijing Experimental University, and executive vice president of the General painting Academy, made a touching speech. She said: the fellow villagers in Beijing were surprised when they heard that I was going back to Ji'an to attend the opening ceremony of the painting exhibition by teacher he and Zheng Xiaolan. I said yes.

Zheng Xiaolan's flower-and-bird paintings have been taught face-to-face by Professor he. The grapes are glittering and translucent; birds such as butterflies and chickens are vivid and vivid; peonies are elegant and elegant, flowers, birds, insects and fish are lifelike, and there is a good flavor of pastoral life. Her flower-and-bird paintings are exquisite and elegant. The color is gorgeous and not vulgar, the pen is interesting, the lasting appeal is long. It is hard to imagine that these works were written by a woman who has been learning to paint for no more than two years.

The inspiration from Zheng Xiaolan's inspirational story is that as long as the goal is clear, the will is strong, and there is more than one way to learn sooner or later, there are many examples of late bloomers and many stunts.

Before I retired from Nanchang 28 Middle School, I was a member of Jiangxi Art Education Research Association and Jiangxi artists Association. The first discipline leader of primary and secondary schools in Jiangxi Province. I retired in October 2015, and in theory, I have completed my merit and can go home in peace to enjoy the family happiness of my children and grandchildren around their knees. However, I did not stop dreaming, but replanned my retirement life. After some thoughtful thinking: after weighing my personality, strengths, and environmental conditions, I decisively ended the art career that had been with me for more than 40 years and found another way to create literature.

After the first prose work was published on the China Prose Network in July 2016, it got out of control. in more than two years, nearly 100 essays, poems and comments were published on ten literary websites across the country. some of the prose works participated in the national competition and won two gold medals, one special prize, one first prize and one second prize. In July last year, he was admitted as a member of Nanchang Writers Association. On March 8 this year, the Jiangxi Writers Association announced a list of new members in 2019, and my name stood out.

With the increasing prosperity of the motherland and the continuous improvement of people's living standards, the happy life style of the elderly is becoming more and more colorful. Piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, music and dance, literature and art, garden cooking, modern electronic science and technology all provide us with opportunities to learn and display our talents. And diligent use of the brain can also maintain vitality, health and longevity. Mr. Yang Jiang, a centenarian, is an inspirational goddess who lives in people's hearts.
