For a seeker who has just been involved in the vast stream of art and the vast sea of ​​art, the famous American Institute of Research and Technology at that time was a splendid art palace. Therefore, with a hint of wonder and awe, Yu Gang visited his great grandfather Bi Yuanming and Zhao Huimin. Chen Xianshui and other teachers learned from them. The artistry and charisma of all the masters left Yu Gang vividly remembered.

In order to live up to his grandfather's ardent hopes, Yu Gang has been working hard for many years and his skills have improved. After entering many colleges and universities for further studies, not only did Yu Gang broaden his horizons, he was creative in the same way as his creative ideas, and he boldly innovated on the basis of inheriting traditions. This has also been fully reflected in his works. That is to say, painting, decoration and craftsmanship lead us to a unique world of ice and snow.
