The Chi, Yeh Fei Pai

This painting is the signature pose of the Yeh family single Celestial Horse composition - his imposing presence inspires awe as he soars through the sky with earth shaking power.

All paintings of the Yeh family’s Celestial Horses emphasize “Chi”, the General’s spiritual strength for righteousness and justice. It is an invigorating energy that travels from the horse’s eye to the mane to the tail. Every line, every stroke, every muscle, every hair is filled with this “Chi”. This is why it is so difficult to imitate the Yeh’s Celestial Horse. In order to reach this state, the painter must constantly purify his mind and cultivate his painting integrity.

Artist Yeh Fei Pai will present a demonstration of brushpainting on March 11th from 12-1pm (food will be provided.). Following this, the artist will be formally recognized in front of City Council.

City Hall, Room W-120
