Another popular theme in Feng's oeuvre, as a devoted father, is children. He painted them dressing up in their parents' clothes and shoes for fun, asking for the full moon in the night, and fighting and destroying things at home, ruining the adults' Sunday peace.

Feng once said: "Recently, my mind has been preoccupied by four things — the deities, the stars in the universe, the arts, and children in the human world."

In an article, About My Paintings, he wrote that he was jealous of children's innocent attitudes and envied the breadth of their world.

Wu Yunhong, also a curator of the exhibition, says that many of the artworks exhibit Feng's shrewd observations of children's behaviors and minds, and that he always valued childlike innocence and sincerity, family love, and friendship.
