Lin Jun-hui's works are elegant, with rich and distinctive layers, vibrant brush strokes and influenced by nature, beautiful colors were splashed onto the canvas; it is a natural reflection of the artist when he's facing nature directly, it is also the artist's understanding of all things around as well as a demand for the aesthetic, Through his paint brushes, Lin paints a reflection of nature, the sorrows of parting and the joys of union experienced in life, and expresses his own emotions.
He once said: "If music simply sounds good to the ears, without any implied stories or meanings; if a painting simply looks beautiful to the eyes, without any practice and experience in life, it doesn't have enough strength to attract the audience. Sensational pleasures are often forgotten easily, however the birth of art, is about transcendence of humanity, pain, frustration, and suffering might come along during the process, but all of them enrich my paintings."
