It is difficult to generalize about the painting style of Le Minh in a few words. If so, sudden inspiration and diversity of his works may be clearly expressed. Perhaps, a strange aesthetic passion and indulgence externally exist in works of artists and therefore, as for each landscape, his aesthetic patterns are in different directions. Starting the painting with a realist’s observation and highly polished penmanship, the artist quickly converted into transcendent scenes in his mind. Opposition of green and complete red of a countryside landscape created an extraordinary attraction. A bridge corner seems to be bulky by the strong strokes and natural colors, presenting certain feelings on the surface of the painting. Thatched cottage in a village is surrounded by green lotus pond in which human is only a small spot. It is seemed that houses and human is surrounded by the lake surface or it is only reflection under the water shade in reality and in dreams of the artist. It may be realized that the misty and passionate feeling covers Le Minh’s works. And landscape is only a cause for the artist to freely express his inspiration in the play with fine arts. Each stop of the artist’s steps is particularly interesting for arriving a new destination/shore.

Le Minh was born in 1964 in Hanoi. He graduated from Sai Gon College of Stage in 1992. He offered many exhibitions in Vietnam and in foreign countries and his works were included in collections of individuals and organizations in Vietnam and in the world.
