The tranquil and great Sun Moon Lake always changes with the different reflection of lights. The morning is foggy and cloudy. In the day time, it’s bright and cozy. The evening shines in red as the sun sets. The stars shine at night. Sun Moon Lake’s sceneries are versatile and always changing. “Sun Moon Lake” comes in free and bold colors, the color blocks made the scenery abstract. Lin Shien-Mao painted with his personal believes and presented what is seen in an abstract yet delicate method. The rich colors are touching. His flowing and skillful techniques reveal his thoughts that make the painting still yet moving. The mountains are shaded with flowing mountain tops. The ripples of the lake enriched by beams of sunshine, it is elegant and natural. Lin Shien-Mao realized that art is a form of “ideal beauty” that is also rational and sensible; the content and form are united. The Sun Moon Lake series is presented by transforming the first impression into internal images. The brushstrokes show the affection and care the artist has for the world. It matches the belief of Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel—“aesthetic is the unification of subjective and objective, a representation of ration and senses.” 
The art language of Lin Shien-Mao has matured with time and the passing of time. After impact, stretch and adjustments, the artist found the most suitable way of expression to present the endless pursuit in him. He is focused and firm. His artworks are unique and genuine from the heart, and they are the blending of objective nature and subjective spirits. The images are objective and also subjective.
