Deng Zhuanshu was written after the first year of Jiaqing, and it is Deng's calligraphy handed down from ancient times. Its brushwork is sharp, its bones are as strong as cotton wrapped in iron, its brushwork is calm, and its brushwork is like silkworms spinning silk, especially with the official pen as the seal. When studying this post, you should observe it carefully and deeply understand its changeable brushwork characteristics. As far as collection is concerned, there are both reverse collection, introverted and implicit, and reverse entry and exit, which is easy and smooth. The strokes of his arc painting are either lifting and turning to see the circle or closing to see the square strength. These subtle changes in the use of pens must be in place and must not be excessive when studying. Do what Sun says? Those who observe are still refined, and those who plan are expensive. ? In the aspect of receiving characters, Deng Zhuan's seal script strives for a unified white method, which makes every seal character appear stable and serene, but it drags on in the blank, thus forming the unity of opposites of sparse, virtual and real. When dealing with uniform and dense white cloth, we should also pay full attention to the parallel, symmetrical, embracing and opposing relationship of lines. In addition, the serrated lines of Deng's seal script are also an important aspect that cannot be ignored. The zigzag arrangement of seal script lines is often the key to creating vividness. Wang Xiaoyun in Qing Dynasty:? There are three essentials of seal script: one is round, the other is fine and the third is uneven. Round is power, thin is thin, and uneven is neat. Throw one out of three, Nuer! ? We should keep this in mind when writing Xiao Zhuan.
Deng's works? The river is noisy and the shore is broken. Thousands of feet? Su Shi's Post-Red Cliff Fu is one of Deng's representative works. Artistic conception is the most taboo, which he put forward in calligraphy theory? Words can be drawn in sparse places, but not in dense places. This seal can be said to be a vivid embodiment of this concept. ? Flow and break? The words are copied and densified, and the dense lines are sparse. ? Jiang? Word sum? Shore, thousands, feet? The three characters echo each other, the gesture opens, and the vast area overlaps? Is it broken? Words echo each other, plus flow, presence and sound? The complexity is in stark contrast. His knife technique is different from that of Huizhou School and Zhejiang School, but it makes the knife technique like a pen and rotates smoothly, carving out his vigorous and graceful style.
? Can't I do my book with my heart? One of the seals, carved with great care, is unprecedented. Suddenly, he developed Song Yuanyuan Zhu Wen's carving method into this fine white carving method. Fiona Fang's twists and turns of Chinese characters printed on the seal are completely randomly matched according to the printing form, and this white line can best reflect the brushwork interest of his calligraphy and the stone taste with a knife as a pen.
? Reading ancient prose is obscene and hearing different words every day? The style is the same as Shang Yin. Although the knife method is not as powerful as Shang Yin, the composition is painstaking. The eight characters are divided into three lines, and the lines are sparse and dense, which is the characteristic of this seal.
? Home is in the mountains and rivers of Siling? They are all printed in seven words, just like his books. The composition of this seal is just the opposite of the last seal, dense in the middle and thin on the left and right. Tight places will not make people feel suffocated, and sparse places will be more than enough. Huang, a master painter, was deeply influenced by it, which was also included in his painting theory? Thin enough to walk, dense enough to breathe? Statement.
? Shilin mountain field? 、? Spring buds? Two seals, diagonal density echo, Bai Zhu set each other off, the whole seal is thick and colorful, round and simple. A letter often has a tone, by contrast, spring bud? Due to the slight skill between turning points, add columns of white text to print. Feng Zikai, the master of art, once said, seal cutting is? Operating within a square inch, and enjoying it almost unscathed, judge its density and distinguish its beauty? . So what? Calligraphy and painting are of the same origin, but books are deeper than paintings and stones are deeper than books? . So? Without exquisite artistic accomplishment, isn't it enough to speak? . These penetrating insights are of great significance to our understanding of Deng's art.
Brief introduction of Deng Deng: (1743- 1805), formerly known as Yan, also known as stubborn bo, also known as ancient Huan Zi, Youyoudaoren, Fengshui Jade Field, Longshan Qiaochang, etc., from Huaining, Anhui. Some people classify him as Huizhou school, and more people respect his outstanding contribution in the history of seal cutting. Deng pai? .
Deng was born in a poor family when he was a child and his social status was low all his life. He himself said: When I was young, I tasted reading and tried everything. When I was thirteen or fourteen years old, I was whispering in my heart and liked books. At the age of twenty, my grandfather brought it to Shouzhou, and now I can teach me to be old. People don't treat each other like literati. ? Such a man who doesn't read much? A piece of cloth? Growing into a great artist depends on unshakable faith, tenacious will and hard work. After seventeen, he began to carve his own food with books. After the age of 30, through the introduction of friends, I gradually got to know friends such as the three Mei brothers in Nanjing, and visited the rare epigraphy books collected by the Mei family. Every famous inscription always has to be copied more than a hundred times, so I got up early and got greedy for black, which laid a solid calligraphy foundation for seal cutting in the future. So at that time, people evaluated his four-body calligraphy as the first person in Qing Dynasty.
