Characteristics of Wen Zhiming's Calligraphy

Wen Zhiming, also known as Wen Zhiming, Wen Zhiming's calligraphy is passionate, steady and mature, with rigorous statutes and vivid meanings. Although there is no vigorous momentum, it has the charm of calligraphy in Jin and Tang Dynasties. His book style is less angry, and in his freehand brushwork, he often reveals a gentle and elegant atmosphere. Perhaps the ups and downs of his career have worn away his spirit of death.

1, Wen Zhiming running script:

Wen Zhiming's running script can be roughly divided into two styles: one is a running script sketch created according to the meaning of Wang Xizhi's preface to the holy teachings; The first one is a large printed letter written in a yellow valley. Before he formed these two styles, he also went through the stage of learning. He not only searched all the calligraphy posts of Wang Xizhi that he could see.

He also studied Yan Zhenqing's Competing for Seats, Sacrificing a Nephew, Liu Zhongtie, Yingzhou Tie, Su Dongpo's Poems on the Red Cliff (36 words for this purpose), Poems on the Temple of Jing Bo by Huang Gu, Zhi Zhu Ci and the ink of Mi Fei and Zhao Mengfu. Sometimes, like Zhu Yunming, he writes his own poems in the style of Su, Huang and Mi.

2. Wen Zhiming cursive script:

Of course, he did not stay at this stage, but entered the post-study, abandoned the ancient method, and finally found his own brushwork that suited his nature.

Wen Zhiming's cursive script not only learned from the two kings, but also learned from the weeds of Huai Su and Huanggu. The former kind of grass is the most common one, which is often incorporated into his running script. There are few works of Crazy Grass, only three works written by him at the age of 43, 50 and 5 1 respectively.

Extended data:

Wen Zhiming's paintings are good at landscapes, orchids, figures and flowers, especially landscapes. In his early years, he studied under Shen Zhou, and later joined Zhao Mengfu, Wang Meng and Zhenwu, forming his own style. Painting styles are thick and thin. Rough brush originated from Shen Zhou and Zhenwu, and used the ancient wood and bamboo stone method of Zhao Mengfu. Pen and ink are vigorous and dripping, dry pen rubbings, calligraphy is white, and hierarchy and charm can be seen in rough sketches.

Zhao Mengfu and Wang Meng used meticulous brushwork. Dense scenery, less space and depth, regular shape, angular, and sometimes deformed. The brushwork is delicate, slightly rough, and childlike in mastery. The colors are green and heavy, with a faint crimson between them, and elegance is seen in freshness. This meticulous landscape road is a true color painting, which has the characteristics of decoration, lyricism, childlike innocence and closeness to the people, and also lays the basic characteristics of the "five schools".
