There are poems in paintings, there are paintings in poems, things and I have feelings, and the two are harmonious, Chinese painting takes brush and ink as the language art, and the brush and ink complement each other in the painting, which is called "the surface and the inside". "Painting and printing poetry and books are fused into one furnace, and the philosophy and beauty are all", the painting is the base, supplemented by poetry and books to remember, and the seal carving is complementary to Bona and presents in the history of Chinese painting and calligraphy. Ye Shangqing, born in Yuhuan, Zhejiang Province in 1930, is currently a member of the Chinese Artists Association, a member of the Xiling Seal Society, a professor of the China Academy of Art, an executive director of the Chinese Painters Association, and an honorary president of the Chinese Society of Chinese Studies. His paintings, with his brushwork seeking momentum and strength, modulation and frustration, and ink seeking charm and emotional rhythm, have become a rare talent in the century-old history of Zhejiang's painting circle. Mr. Ye Shangqing was born in Yuhuan County, Taizhou City, Zhejiang Province, and the ancient chronicles recorded that "the morning mist surrounds the island, and the shape is like a ring; There is flowing water, white as jade", it is such a seaside town that has nourished the simplicity and sincerity of generations. Zhong Guangwei said: "Mr. Ye was born in August 1930, he grew up in Yuhuan as a teenager and teenager, and before liberation, he participated in revolutionary work, and he was also influenced by revolutionary ideas when he was a teenager. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Mr. Ye worked in the Art Troupe, Youth League and newspaper departments as literary and artistic propaganda, art design and editing, at that time Ye Shangqing wore many hats, after working for a period of time, he felt that there was no end to learning, and in 1954 he chose to further his studies and was admitted to the East China Branch of the Central Academy of Fine Arts (now the China Academy of Art). After graduating in 1959, he stayed in school to teach until his retirement in 1993. Yandang Middle School, this I remember the deepest impression of Yandang Middle School, when I was a first grade, lived in a grass house, a very large grass house, the grass house is very elegantly built and beautiful, I began to feel that Yandang Mountain is strange and dangerous and strong, and majestic, the characteristics of the mountain and water are also very beautiful, that time was relatively early, it was 61 years, 62 years to Yandang Mountain, and Mr. Pan Tianshou lived here for a relatively short time, Mr. Pan Tianshou has a characteristic that he is silent, with memory to observe nature, see nature, Seeing the natural environment, landscapes, flowers, and trees, he observed them very carefully, and then memorized them in his heart, and then went back to create them. Yuhuan Jianshi, the full name of Yuhuan County Simple Normal School, Yuhuan Party organization through careful planning, ideological education for young students, guide them to pursue progress, so that Yuhuan Jianshi has become a position for the Communist Party to cultivate revolutionary vitality. At that time, I was studying Yuhuan Jianshi, at that time Yuhuan did not have a middle school, and one of Jianshi's homeroom teachers was surnamed Dong and Mr. Dong Zhongsheng, so he often used the demonstration works on the book "Mustard Seed Garden" to draw flowers and birds on the blackboard, or to paint landscapes, and asked us to copy, which was the intention to influence his intention to learn painting at that time. There were three enlightenment teachers, one was Zhang Huaijiang, one was Chen Shabing, and the other was Xia Ziyi, and later both of them went to the Academy of Fine Arts. Chen Fawen said: "I am an old comrade-in-arms with Comrade Ye Shangqing, he came to our Gucangshan guerrilla base area in 1947 to participate in the revolution, and he came here to engage in cultural work, and he has been engaged in cultural work for more than 70 years. "The art of Chinese painting, in other words, takes both new and beautiful as its purpose, and constantly explores ahead of time, up and down, and is characterized by poetry, calligraphy, painting, and printing. Mr. Ye Shangqing is a rare artist in the history of Zhejiang painting in the past 100 years with the quality of poetry, calligraphy, painting and printing, he integrates painting, calligraphy, seal carving, poetry and multiple arts, "multi-dimensional" is not only an important attribute of Ye Shangqing's art, but also a cultural tradition and core driving force accumulated in the development of Chinese painting in Zhejiang for a hundred years. I came into contact with Chinese painting, it can be said that since elementary school, many classmates we often go to see a painter, perform on the spot, this painter is our hometown, that is, Yuhuan was called the county at that time, Yuhuan County, the best painting Chinese painting flowers and birds painting an old gentleman, called deaf, his pen number is called deaf, his ear is a little deaf, call him deaf, his name is Chen Qi, he often sets a table on the street in order to maintain his life and paints on the spot, after painting, people like to sell it for money, he is like to maintain his life, after he has seen it, slowly and slowly understand, I also read it very seriously, so it helped me a lot to inspire myself, and I thought at that time, oh, painting Chinese painting is drawn like this, so I want to go to the country of painting well, and I began to have the enlightenment of painting Chinese painting when I was in elementary school. Mr. Ye Shangqing originally studied figure painting at the China Academy of Art, and later due to the needs of the country to cultivate talents, decided by the superior organization, he learned flower and bird painting from Mr. Pan Tianshou, and became a disciple of Pan Lao, and a graduate student and secretary of Pan Lao. The Academy of Fine Arts selected several teachers, and they were selected to take over Mr. Pan Tianshou's class, to be Mr. Pan Tianshou's graduate student and secretary, and specifically to follow Mr. Pan Tianshou in activities, which gave him the greatest inspiration and the "four alls" he proposed. Later, Mr. Pan officially wrote this point of view in the book, and since then, he is a student of the Academy of Fine Arts, and the teachers of the Academy of Fine Arts have basically inherited and learned along the four perfections proposed by Mr. Pan Tianshou. During his studies at the Academy of Fine Arts, he extensively dabbled in the artistic styles of various schools and the temperament of each school. On the other hand, when we learn Chinese painting and flower and bird painting, we are required to learn not only the teacher's paintings, but also the teacher's teacher, the teacher's old lady, like Wu Changshuo, Mr. Pan Tianshou's teacher Wu Changshuo, Ren Bonian, Wu Changshuo's teacher is Ren Bonian, Ren Bonian, Bada Shanren, including Xu Wei, all the way to the Yuan Dynasty, like Wu Zhen, Ni Yunlin, to the Song Dynasty, these senior artists, his brush and ink techniques, his traditional art, we have to learn. Mr. Ye Shangqing's artistic works have spread throughout the north and south of the motherland, some paintings have traveled overseas for people to enjoy and appreciate, exhibited in more than 20 countries such as Japan and United States, and have been collected by art galleries and museums at home and abroad, and the exchange of works has also allowed Mr. Ye Shangqing to find overseas mentors and friends, Ye Lao also wrote these valuable experiences into his own poems, such as the poem written during the PEN meeting with guests in Singapore, there is the sentence "Keep a heart on the side of Xiling Bridge, friendship will live forever". Two poems made when participating in Sino-Japanese cultural exchange activities, including "Chinese and Japanese sages gather in elegant gatherings, improvised calligraphy and painting engraved stamps", "sages go to the meeting place, appreciate Danqing's clumsy collection" and other sentences. In the 80s, when the mayor of Gifu City in Japan came to visit the Xiling Seal Society, he also wrote a poem "Flowers are full of clothes, pine life is a thousand years of emerald", and Mr. Ye Shangqing made a painting and the inscription "Plum and bamboo are all over the years", and the two exchanged works as gifts, which was of far-reaching significance. Mr. Ye Shangqing also formed a deep friendship with the famous Japan calligrapher Mr. Aoyama Sugiyu by chance, and the two often wrote letters to communicate with each other, and the friendship lasted forever. Mr. Ye has a wide range of friends, and every trip is a practice in his art, and he has learned a lot. The coastal scenery of his hometown cultivates Ye Shangqing's love for nature, because he loves the natural beauty of his hometown, which is deeply rooted in his mind, and is also displayed in his paintings, and expresses the core spirit of traditional Chinese painting, "viewing things and taking images" and "Taoism and nature". This painting, I began to paint lotus leaves, the painting is relatively simple, the expression style of this lotus leaf, it can be seen that I am from the Bada Shanren and Wu Changshuo, these old-timers, some of their performance techniques, because I learned Pan Tianshou's Mr. Freehand, the top is the leaf, the following are the lotus, and then the lotus leaf is painted, the bottom of the small leaf, so that the small leaf is painted, the feeling is good, and finally with the fish, the theme of the painting comes out, that is, the fish play lotus leaf picture, It's kind of a relationship of being connected and connected. "Pure Planting Lotus", "Hundred Birds", "Fish Playing Lotus Leaves", "Fuchun River Stork", "Guanguan Ju Dove" and other frame works, the theme of this frame of works originates from nature, the so-called foreign teacher to create nature, in the heart of the source. Ye Shangqing's paintings are full of life and pen and ink skills, so they are particularly intimate and intriguing. These creations are their own, it can also be said that they are in their later years, and they are created in their later years, this eagle, this is the decay change method proposed by themselves at that time, that is, the old age change method, that is, in the later years, can have a breakthrough, an innovation, and a quest, so I use the line to express, mainly the line, more neat, more rigorous to express the object, so as an attempt. Ye Shangqing has been fond of calligraphy since he was a child, and he inherited Pan Tianshou's "bone method" of using the brush, and applied the concept of "bone method with the brush" to the creation of calligraphy, reflecting a kind of vigorous and upright life force. The painting of "Hundred Birds", there are scenes and birds, a hundred kinds of birds, and later I asked Sha Lao to inscribe, because Sha Lao was 91 years old at that time, so it took about ten years before and after and after his own revision. Book for the heart painting, seal is also like its person, Ye Shangqing is also obsessed with seal carving, since childhood love calligraphy, seals, primary school seal carving for the labor class, once engraved on a pen holder "war to the end" to participate in the school labor craft exhibition. Based on this pen holder, this pen holder is the four words "War of Resistance to the End", these four words were engraved when I was in the third grade, these words were written by the teacher, this teacher is an art teacher, he taught us to work, at that time I made this pen holder, carved well, the teacher saw that this word was carved very well, and now this pen holder has been broken, the time is too long, it has been more than 80 years, so it is very commemorative, I have kept it, left until now. Ye Lao's seal carving works have a kind of ancient and vigorous, vigorous and vigorous atmosphere, his pursuit of seal carving art, in fact, is also the painting in the "gold and stone" tempering, the pen is round and simple, but not lost the withering, a knife carved down, is called the old polishing of skills, the pursuit of art, but also the attitude to life. Mr. Ye Shangqing's poetry creation, began in the early 60s of the 20th century, under the teaching of teachers and their own understanding, Ye Lao gradually entered the path of poetics, and developed the habit of writing ancient poetry, using poetry to record life, fate and emotion, and rejuvenating inscriptions. Mr. Lu Weizhao was transferred from Hangzhou University to the Academy of Fine Arts, at this time Mr. Lu Weizhao took a poetry class, from this time, that is, from 61 years, he began to learn poetry, at that time he made it, after doing it, it was copied out on this manuscript, it was already very formal, after learning it, he (the teacher) revised it, and the red pen was revised by Mr. Lu Weizhao; The black pen and black one, this one next to it, this small character, was changed by Mr. Pan Tianshou, so he left such a thing now. Mr. Ye Shangqing uses writing and poetry as a record, involving travel, sketching, inscriptions, paintings, paintings, comics, and memorization, which directly reflect the artist's artistic status and academic views, and are the true portrayal of Ye Lao's artistic life.
