Li Wenxin, a painter who captured the charm in sim ple things
1927年，李文信出生在四川双流。完成基础学业之后，他进入西南美专、正则艺专学习，后来考入杭州艺专。从1953年开始，李文信一直在四川美术学院执教。1960年，李文信受邀为人民大会堂四川厅作画，他以长征为主题创作了一幅同名大型画作。画中群山绵亘，夺得泸定桥后，红旗飘扬，向万里关山进军。整幅画展现出长征的磅礴气势，被人民大会堂永久收藏。
二十世纪六七十年代，李文信在人物画上取得了突出的成就。他几乎所有的人物画都是生活中某一个时刻的定格，或许是撩开垂柳提着水桶的小姑娘，或是眯着眼睛正小心缝补的老奶奶，有的是木工在聚精会神地作业，有的是渔民正推船出水的瞬间。
他在年过半百之际，转而向山水画发力，形成了自己的面貌。李文信的山水画与他的人物画一脉相承，充满了生活气息。他喜欢描绘农家小院的情景，河边老树下的小桥流水。他喜欢画篱笆、山岚、小丘、溪涧、茂林、修竹、枯木以及隐映于绿荫中的农舍，笔下充溢着恬淡和安谧，富有巴山蜀水浓郁生活气息。

二十世纪八十年代初，李文信再度受邀为人民大会堂四川厅作画，这一次他画的是《大渡河上》，画面布局虽与二十年前的《长征》一致，但大渡河铁索桥旁修起了钢筋水泥的大桥，曲折的蜀道上布满了电线杆。江山依旧，换了人间。
