My wife Jeanne is beautiful on the outside AND the inside. Although I had never thought of getting Jeanne's portrait painted before, Shijun's work was so beautiful, that it seemed the most natural thing in the world to do. Shijun combined my favorite traditional southwest Pueblo Indian motifs (I'm an archaeologist) with Jeanne's beautiful face. It all paid off--Shijun caught my vision exactly. Jeanne loves it--told me I was a "romantic". For a very un-romantic guy, it doesn't get any better. - Dr. Dave Crass GA 2008
Thank you for your beautiful art! I have had your set of art cards (5"x5") for a long time (maybe 10 years?) and very much enjoy looking at them.. I bought my daughter-in-law one of your small paintings at the Decatur Arts Festival last year for her birthday and I have had one of your greeting cards hanging in my kitchen since the Inman Park Arts Festival. So I feel as if you are a part of my life, even though we have never met.
Last month I was at the Oakhurst Arts Festival and I was walking along when I was stopped short by your painting "Spring II" I couldn't take my eyes off of her! She was so innocent and lovely. Gazing at her eyes, it felt like looking into a different world! First I fell in love with her face. I wanted to take her home even before I saw the hummingbirds and the butterfly, they just added to her allure! Thank you again for your beautiful images. This world of ours needs people like you who create inspiring art that lifts us up. Your painting will bring me much joy for years and years to come. ~Patty O'Keefe Hutton, GA 2011

"I received the painting "Enlightenment" yesterday and it is perfect! Thank you and I will look forward to seeing your future work!...Your painting "Rich" is hanging over my fireplace and I absolutely love it! I told Betsy that I would buy her house Only if she sold me that painting. What a beautiful work of art! Everyone who come in the house absolutely loves it! I started following your website right after that. Now I am able to sit at my table and see your new work on my dining room wall as well!!" David, NC, USA. 2014,

梁明明, 中国,广州.1997 诗筠在乎于能触发旧时情怀的一切〜意韵幽深的古诗,粗朴简括的古陶,古丝绸之路上灵动的飞天••••••
"那是一个神秘的箴言与种种灵性的力量鱼贯的年代,浑朴而精微••••••"诗筠在她的画中反复追述充满幻觉的非现实时空,里面所有的影像都萦回着旷远的空灵,闪烁着温润幽微的光。
人总是孤立无援,他只有返回自身的历史中寻找支持,诗筠值着重温过往的影像,辨别将淹没于草蒿中的路径----我从哪里来的记忆重新被开。
诗筠总画着独立于风口处的人,她们不约而同地姿态安祥、宁静、流露着平致深厚的温意-----生命的从容与韧性就这样感人至深地铺展。
在诗筠的画笔下,她们是追忆之河上的浮标,让我们的追寻获得肯定----生命原是如此的源远流长,人类的历史让人本身变得有力而博大。
