Between a painting, Feng Yu's changes fluctuate; At a little bit, this is very frustrating. "If the cursive script is uniform in thickness and rhythmic in lines, it can't give people aesthetic feeling. The so-called cadence, lifting and pressing, is all paper and clouds. Although it is silent, it has a musical melody, which is precisely one of the important reasons why cursive art is loved by people.
Calligraphers in past dynasties paid special attention to the primary and secondary contrast of lines, and often took the strokes that best expressed the calligrapher's personality as the "main pen" to show their unique aesthetic feeling. For example, Yan Zhenqing is full of needles, the Yellow Valley is full of twists and turns, and the vertical hooks in Mi Fei are unique. In addition, there are many contrast techniques, such as size, vertical and horizontal, back to back, tilt, density, thickness, shadow and Fiona Fang.
Please look at the rhythm of the three lines of "(Cloud) sitting at the snake, storm and whirlwind full of people (Lu Yuan)" in the autobiography of Tang Huaisu: the number of "(Cloud) rushing at the snake" in the first line is almost written in one stroke. The eyes of the viewer follow the heart, and he feels that his heart is jumping forward and his passion is unrestrained. The word "potential" in the second line is independent and to the left, and the word "force" in the second half of the sentence converges slightly, as if it were ready to go.
The two strokes of the word are vigorous and elastic, and they hold up the meaning of the pen at once. The words "potential" and "advance" are relatively stable from top to bottom; The rhythm of this line is slightly slower, which is in contrast to the previous line "running snakes and walking". In the third line, the word "Man Feng (Luyuan)" turns sharply and is made in one stroke ... These three lines of cursive script are connected end to end, touching people's hearts and thought-provoking.
Starting writing is an appeal, and accepting writing is a response. The function of echo is to connect the original independent lines into an organic whole. The lines echo, just like the air is flowing, just like being given life. Traditional calligraphy is called "painting qi" and "blood", and it is suggested that "it is better to echo from beginning to end and connect up and down".
For example, Zong Baihua, a modern aesthete, said: "You can look back around, and the yin and yang rise and fall, just like the branches and leaves of a tree, each giving way;" When the running water is mixed, it will come down one after another. " This word is a stream of life, a dance and a piece of music.
