Zhou Mingde's painting style is simple and profound, the brushwork is old-fashioned, the picture peaks and valleys, pinning the painter's sentiments for avoiding the world, placing the yearning for the ancient people's life status of the free cloud wild crane, and the natural and goodwill emitted by the landscape and nature intoxicated and obsessed. Zhou created his intellectual world with the art language of light work. The creative state of mind created by the artist is unprecedented, and the gesture is outstanding and subtle. The artistic conception that is different from ancient times and others makes the landscape reconstructed in his paintings not only rich in personal soul and characteristics of the times, but also his inheritance of cultural spirit, the construction of spiritual themes and the overriding and climbing of the current realm. Zhou Mingde is the successor of literati painting and a rebel of literati painting.
