對於繪畫來說,郭冠忻捨棄對於具象形體的思考,讓自己接受外在及自然的刺激,來發掘內在的力量。她從色彩出發,追求色彩及音樂和諧的迷樣感覺,隨心所欲地使用主觀色彩,使流動的形象產生生機,配合藝術形式的韻律、節奏變化,綜合形成整體畫面的統一感,使心靈中幻動的美境意象微微浮現。

她的作品裡帶有表現性的寧靜、空靈與祥和之境界,蘊含著濃濃的文學性抒情味,雖然觀賞者看到了「風景」,但是絕非純粹的自然主義景觀,而是超然物外的祥和天地,畫面自然天成,蘊藏著超乎其表的生動氣韻。

不管國際潮流如何推陳出新,冠忻總是用一種沈著而寧靜的覺知力量,貼近人真實存在與生命內在的本質。將自然中蘊藏的無限生機與希望,以及東方文化裡簡單而又深刻的思維真諦表露出來。

Kuan-hsin Kuo draws inspiration from her own mind, not from the external world. Colour is her primary motivation. Painting, for her, is a very organic process. It happens spontaneously. She is guided by an energy that determines the rhythm of her brushstrokes and the color that she applies on the canvas.

In Kuan-hsin's work we can see how the abstraction of landscapes subtly reveals a feeling of being in harmony with everything. The viewer, observing the natural scene in a painting, interacts with the energy of the work and is taken beyond the image to experience a sense of the supernatural.

No matter what happens outside, she always remains calm and focused on understanding the essence of truth. The integrity of her artwork is arrived at through a combination of the organic nature of her creative process and the inspiration she derives from the simplicity and deep-thought of eastern philosophy.
