Nai will be summarized as: one painting, two combinations, three eccentricities, four egos, five images, six studies and seven arts.
"One painting" is a literati painting. Literati painting should be based on poetry, calligraphy and painting, advocate the beauty of wildness, and show its aesthetic value and humanistic spirit of simplicity, nature, wildness and elegance.
"Two in one" refers to the unity of images. Calligraphy image is very important. Calligraphy is the art of pen and ink, not only the art of lines, but also the philosophy of calligraphers.
The word "three eccentrics" originated from Mr. Xu Beihong. Mr. Wang called me the "three eccentrics" of poetry books. The aesthetic basis of Naixue is the trinity of poetry, painting and calligraphy.
"Four Ones" is the spiritual pillar of Naixue. I put forward the idea of "Three Ones and One Transcendence", that is, discovering oneself, knowing oneself, telling stories from oneself and surpassing the times. As a calligrapher or painter, we should not stop at self-expression, but must link the "self" with the "self" beyond the times and with the country, the times and the nation.
The "five images" are: appearance, image, meteorology, aerial image and color image. The "five images" integrate the philosophical views of Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism.
The "six studies" include: literature, aesthetics, literature and art, religion (Confucian classics), philosophy, history and so on. The theoretical basis of six studies is Chinese studies.
The "seven arts" are painting, calligraphy, poetry, printing, sculpture, prose, novels and so on.
