Composition refers to the overall arrangement of a calligraphy work, also known as text structure, which is an important part of calligraphy art. For the artistic requirements of a work, not only every word should be written well, but also many words should be composed into a complete chapter. No matter between words, between lines, even between the top of the head and the bottom of the foot, inscriptions should be printed, and the overall design and reasonable layout should be done. How to arrange the content of the work, how to sign it and how to stamp it are all the contents of the composition. The whole structure, the leading duct tape, echoes from beginning to end, in one go, everything in one go, the flow of fate, the twists and turns of the pen, the clever layout of the imaginary array, and the expression of feelings are all part of the composition.
Composition is also called "white cloth" because composition is an artistic treatment of virtual and real space. The beauty of reality comes from nothingness, and emptiness and reality, white and black are interdependent, leaving viewers with a broad aesthetic imagination world. Successful creation embodies the aesthetic principle of combining reality with fiction, and Deng's "Counting White as Black" is the concrete application of this aesthetic principle. In other words, it is important to have pen and ink, and it is also important to have no pen and ink; There is pen and ink between the lines, which is interesting. The symmetry of character space, the smoothness of white cloth and the stippling of characters have the same aesthetic value. Since all space is an organic part of the work, the line structure and the feeling of space should naturally be included. Calligraphy also pays attention to connecting the preceding with the following. Looking around, the changes are uneven, the inscription is reasonable, the seal cutting is appropriate, and the local beauty and the overall beauty are harmonious and unified.
