The Style of Liu Yanshui's Works

Liu Yanshui, a young man, is ambitious, upright, broad-minded and indifferent. He likes literature, painting and calligraphy, especially exquisite landscapes, flowers and birds. The scenery is lofty and ancient, simple and naive, pale and beautiful, rich and gorgeous, broad and magnificent. It's always strange, and it's natural to write every time. Create new ideas in statutes and send wonderful ideas out of the wild. Hà Thu is near the spring, with winding paths leading to secluded places, hidden clouds, ponds and pavilions, cracked sails and trees, and salty business, which is full of temperament and charm. Seek the wonderful and create the true, the heart and hand correspond, and the environment is prosperous. Forget yourself. The sages who believed in ancient times said: "Observing the Tao with sincerity" and "Nature comes from the outside and the heart comes from the middle" are Deng Taidai, Hengzong, Song Yue, Huafeng, Yuheng, Jiuhua, Huangshan Songyun, Yandang Chihiro and Taihang. Traveling all over the north and south of the river, there are common clouds and clouds, steep peaks and steep cliffs, vast smoke and waves, high drinking valley, wearing a picture of you, sitting in the wilderness. It is necessary to give birth to the idea of dust. Advocate the historical macro-orthodox artistic principle, inherit the original knowledge, borrow the past and open up the present.

Landscape painting began in the Five Dynasties, learning from the Song and Yuan Dynasties, and was founded by Dong Yuan, Guan Tong, Li Cheng, Fan Kuan, Ni Zan, Huang and Wang Shuming. Imitating the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Dong Qichang, the Four Monks of the Qing Dynasty, the Four Kings and Gong Chaizhang were obsessed with them, trying to take the Song people as the body, the Yuan people as the bones and muscles, and the Ming and Qing Dynasties as the qi and blood. Calligraphy was proud of Zhong, Wang and Yun Linzi in Wei and Jin Dynasties, and was introduced into Han steles, among which calligraphers were Yan, Huai Su, Su Dongpo, Wang Juesi, Wu Changshuo and Huang.
