Friends on the Yellow Land was created in 2001 and represents one of Liu Xiaoning’s early paintings.
It depicts the landscapes of northern Shaanxi from the artist’s memory — golden soil, gentle hills, sparse trees, and haystacks under a quiet sky.
In the foreground, two small horses, one black and one white, rest side by side on the land, embodying a sense of peace and companionship.
The composition is simple, the tone soft and warm, filled with an innocent charm and quiet emotion.
Liu Xiaoning once said, “Those who don’t know how to paint often paint the best.”
He also admitted that his favorite works are from his “clumsy period” —
because at that time, he could paint freely, like a child.
This painting reflects that unpolished sincerity —
free from calculation, yet full of warmth and honesty.
It feels like a small poem about childhood,
or a quiet return to the heart’s beginning.
