Calligraphy collection and distribution

Su Shi in Song Dynasty pointed out that "a book must have lofty sentiments, blood and flesh, and none of them can be a book". Here, "arrogance, flesh and blood" actually refers to the moral of calligraphy lines and distribution, which is what the ancients often said. As a result, calligraphy has become the most basic language to express the connotation of calligraphy. The lightness and heaviness of the brush, the square and the circle, the discontinuity and connection, the straight and the curve, the exposure and hiding, the sparseness and the density, the right and the danger, the moistening and the dryness, the release and the collection, the vertical and horizontal, the virtual and the real, and the direction and the back have caused the formal meaning of dynamic and static blending. It is through a thorough understanding of brushwork and its expressive potential, a grasp of lines and distribution that calligraphers finally fit in with their own living conditions, thus opening the channel of writing skills, smoothly integrating meticulous life emotions and subtle sensory images into the formal structure of calligraphy works, and finally presenting the spirit and spirit of the writing subject with unique formal beauty. It can be said that this is a unique expression of the artistic connotation of calligraphy.
