The golden book of the beginning of the pen falls on the ink brocade characters
——Remembering the famous calligrapher Li Yiqi
It's not easy to use a pen! The essence of the difficulty lies in the ever-changing use of the pen. From Dudu Cuiyi, to Zhang Zhi Zhang Xu, to Huai su Wang Duo, in the thousands of years of calligraphy evolution, the fundamental requirements for the need for "change" in brushwork are from ancient times to the present. Watching the calligraphy changes of Mr. Li Yiqi, a famous contemporary calligrapher, it is indeed written like the image of all things, and the wonders of nature are not achieved by luck, and the changing posture and form are overwhelming. Standing in front of such calligraphy works, you will have such a feeling: the calligraphy is endless, and the use of pens is exquisite in the continuity of ancient and modern!
Mr. Yi Qi writes calligraphy, and his sense of speed in calligraphy is quite wonderful. If the speed of calligraphy is only fast, it is inevitable to slip. If the speed of calligraphy is only slow, it is inevitably dull. Only like Mr. Li, fast and slow can inherit each other, slow and fast can be converted into each other, can you write down this hand like a mountain and water. Fast time is like a storm and a shock, a wave, as fast as thunder and lightning, is full of surprise to see, suddenly written tens of millions of words! Slow time is the middle stream strike, the vast and wonderful, that is, the falling flowers and flying snow are vast, and the cone scratches the sand house leak marks! When the speed of pen and ink presents a rhythm of complementarity and mutual complementarity on rice paper, the calligraphy works written must have a texture of life. You can write calligraphy lines alive, and do your best to get the pen and ink machine secrets!
Looking at the adjustment of the strength of his calligraphy, it is also the mechanical connotation of the ever-changing calligraphy. With a throw of the pen, the large ink is laid out, and it is indeed a volley to kill the paper, and the power of the thousand jun that penetrates the back of the paper is powerful, and the shaping of the calligraphy line has the spirit of the dragon jumping the heavenly gate tiger lying phoenix que. The light pen makes the turn, the fine ink is soft, and the calligraphy lines present a trend of the silk belt, which is as delicate as the end of the world at the beginning of the new moon, falling among the stars of Judah. Because the pen power can be handy, when creating calligraphy, it is like a stirring wave to write, and when it is like a luan phoenix wandering. He can use the ink in the pen and the clever shaping of the pen in the ink to make the calligraphy works have the abundance of self-vibration and collapse!
Because the strength and speed are mastered perfectly, Mr. Li's calligraphy has a fairly good dynamic quality, which can fluctuate in a stroke, and can also be frustrated in a single stroke. His works are based on chapter grass, freehand in this grass, and lyrical in wild grass, and the three are one, and he attaches great importance to the fine study of the Fa. Do not write the shape such as the operator printed body, nor write the rough head and chaotic costume of the jianghu body, the generations of literati Fa Ti carried out the unceasing unlocking of the pool, always taken from the authentic quality of the ancient style. Each stroke fits into the body, every word originates from the root, there is the refined contemplation of the self-narration, and there is the usurpation of the reference book. It is precisely because the inheritance of his calligraphy is quite rich, so his calligraphy works have a very distinct professional influence. Writing has a method, it is authentic!
Write a golden book, drop the ink brocade characters. Being able to write a golden book, in addition to the tenacious cultivation of the teacher, lies in the spirit of his teacher's informal creation. His calligraphy creation is based on the ancient method for my use, not as a book slave, nor as a bookmaker, but good at driving pen and ink to make my heart write my book freely and freely. Everything, not for the best, but for the best! Let the heart be the master, and the calligraphy written is the mirror image of the heart, which is the most valuable walking posture of the calligraphy "artist"!
