Characteristics of landscape painting
Different from other copybooks, this is named according to the summary of the content or the opening words, and Ling Feijing is named according to his writing characteristics. Therefore, as the name implies, the essence of his brushwork is mainly embodied in the words "God" and "Flying". "Spirit" means that the writing should be smart, and it is appropriate to write on the low side. Its purpose is to use it steadily and easily, and it requires the coordination of fingers, wrists, elbows, arms, waist and even feet and the whole body, which is what the ancients called total body strength, focusing on the movements of wrists. It is ok to use fingers in several small parts and correct sitting posture. There are three wrist techniques: pillow lifting, wrist lifting and wrist hanging. The method is to put the back of your left hand under your right wrist. Of course, from the high demand, we still advocate lifting or even hanging the wrist, because the stippling written in this way is more vivid. The correct way to lift the wrist is: on the premise that the wrist is flat, the wrist can swing left and right on the same plane, which is especially commonly used in horizontal painting and must be mastered with great efforts. When lifting the wrist, it is forbidden to rotate the forearm as the axis (this problem is mainly reflected in the fact that the strokes written in the sketch are often erratic and weak) or to flatten the upright palm (this problem is manifested in the fact that the stippling written is relatively timid and weak). The key to the above shortcomings is stiff elbows and shoulders and inflexible joints of the whole body. "Flying" refers to its vertical and horizontal composition. Because the size, length and height of the whole word are uneven, the density is natural, and the whole word is taken care of from word to word and from line to line. The whole word is integrated. Although it is regular script, it has the smooth and elegant rhyme of running script, which is varied and interesting. With its graceful and graceful artistic features, it is calm and upright, with extraordinary charm, and is deeply loved by calligraphers of all ages.
