萧明贤的作品以抽象水墨表现梦幻诗情，线形与团块墨韵交集成抽象空间，他用线条在宣纸上或在画布上，钩勒出自然形象以外的另类造形，粗线条、细线条在不同的媒材上产生律动变化的视觉符号，令人印象相当深刻。

HSIAO Ming-Hsien uses abstract ink painting to express fantastic scenes and poetic sentiments, in which linear shapes and masses interlaced with the cadenced flow of ink to form abstract spaces. On either xuan paper or canvas, he painted the outlines of imagined forms not found in nature. Lines, alternately coarse and fine, formed visual symbols, engendering rhythmic changes in combination with different materials, to memorable effect.
