Characteristics of Zhu Da's Works
Painting is famous for its freehand brushwork, and it is good at splashing ink, especially flower-and-bird painting, which is beautiful in the world. In creation, the method is natural, the pen and ink are concise, magnificent and unique, creating a broad and vertical style.
Badashan people are good at painting landscapes and flowers and birds. His paintings are unrestrained, irregular, vigorous and beautiful, full of escape, and the composition is incomplete but complete. His "one flower, one bird" lies not in quantity and size, but in the position and momentum in the layout. And whether it is used in a timely, surprising and ingenious way.
This is his "win-win" method. If the layout of the painting is flawed, sometimes books and clouds are used to fill its meaning. Badashan people can write poems and have exquisite calligraphy, so even though his paintings are not many, with his poems, the artistic conception is enough, and his paintings make people feel small and numerous, which is the artistic ingenuity.
Badashan people can moisten Ming Jie by dry rubbing. Therefore, the paintings are all "unrestrained". Badashan people are different from others, and they are all "moist". Badashan people are different from others. Such as fish and birds, once made the expression of "staring at people with white eyes" to express cynicism.
His flower-and-bird painting style can be divided into three periods. Before the age of 50, he was a monk, especially in his early days. He spent a lot of money on "Carrying on the Family", "A Mountain", "A Donkey" and "A Man's House", painting fruits and vegetables, flowers and pine plums, mostly books. The picture is more exquisite and powerful.
From the age of 50 to 65, the painting style gradually changed, and I like to paint fish, birds, grass insects and animals. The image is exaggerated, and the mouths and eyes of birds and animals are mostly square, with oval faces, large and small, and are on the verge of extinction. A bird lives with one foot and hangs with the other.
After the age of 65, it will be late, and the art will become more and more mature. The brushwork became Park Mao Xiongwei, and the shape was extremely exaggerated. Fish and birds' eyes turn around a little, and their eyes lean against the rim of their eyes, looking like "supercilious" Some birds he painted seem to be stubborn. Even if there is not much pen and ink, they show the feathers of birds, which makes people feel untouchable and fly at the touch.
Some birds shrink their necks with their fists and feet, which are both bullying and afraid of hard work, and are also concise in composition and pen and ink. These images are undoubtedly the portrayal of the painter himself, that is, "the song of grief and indignation, worrying about the country and the people, expressing one's feelings with pen and ink." He wrote in a poem about Huang Shanshui: "Guo Jiayun is small, but Dong Laoma has many trees. People can understand if they want to see pictures. Yifeng is still with Song. Show his national consciousness.
