Famous seals are generally divided into Zhu Wen (Yang Wen) and Bai Wen (Yin Wen). When a calligraphy work is stamped with two seals, it is best to have one Zhu and one white, and the two seals are appropriate in size. When multiple chapters are used at the end of a paragraph, the order is that the name chapter comes first, and the words and numbers chapter comes last.
2. Yin and Yang balance:
As far as printing color is concerned, ink is lighter and white is heavier. For works with elegant ink color, Zhu should be used to maintain the harmony between the two; The works with strong ink color should be printed in white, so that the red ink color and the black ink color form a strong contrast, which makes each other interesting.
3. The calligraphy differences between Zhu Wen and Bai Wen;
As seal cutting, there are many kinds of seals. According to the seal shape, the seal in calligraphy can be divided into square, round, flat, waist round, semicircle, ellipse, gourd shape, shaw shape, natural shape and so on. According to its seal cutting method, it can be divided into two forms: Zhu Wen (Yang Wen) and Bai Wen (Yin Wen). According to the content of seal cutting, it can be divided into famous seal and idle seal.
Generally speaking, most of the ancient seal characters are printed in white, with elegant and simple fonts and vigorous brushwork, and the turning point should be completed in one go. White printed fonts are generally fat but not swollen, thin but not withered, handy, wonderful in nature, and most avoid affectation. Zhu started in the Six Dynasties and prevailed in the Tang and Song Dynasties. The font is elegant and the brushwork is exposed, but if the handwriting is not thick, it will look tacky.
