Hi again Pat
In case the attached word doc did not open I copy the contents as below

YU JIE 玉 洁 = LIU YU 刘玉 ?
I bought a pair of bird bottles from “Shop on Stairs” = GZ Mother Lode 1 in 11.2009: P170 & P171
Peter Liu, the owner of the shop, told me they were painted by Liu Yu 刘玉.
But the bottles are clearly signed Yu Jie 玉 洁
I don’t know if this is because Liu Yu 刘 玉 is the artist’s real name and
Yu Jie 玉 洁 is the pen name , or whether these are two different artists ( but obviously Yu Jie is a pen name )

As with the last auction here the paintings inside this bottle are bold and colorful. The artist is Liu Yu who is an excellent student of the great artist Shi Qing.

Re Pat Zanas’ two Yu Jie bottles : Hutong and Boy-on-buffalo
Peter wrote to Pat:

Your boy-on-buffalo bottle was obviously copied from an original (modern) painting
So my guess is that your Hutong bottle was also copied from an original (modern) painting ,and that your hutong bottle I recall seeing before was painted by another IP artist from the same original painting
Maybe later I will stumble on the same hutong bottle I saw before. It's somewhere in my DB
