Comments on Shi Zuquan from all walks of life

Wen Wei Po, Xinmin Evening News and many other well-known domestic media praised Mr. Shi Zuquan's Chinese painting works as "innovative and bold". Shi Zuquan is the president of Qiantang Painting and Calligraphy Society and has worked in our city for many years. What the old man usually says most is "I would rather not draw for a day than not learn for a day." In fact, he didn't stop splashing ink all day. He paints a lot of Chinese paintings every day, and he does not hesitate to tear up those works that are slightly dissatisfied, which shows his high vision. And learning calligraphy is his daily life. "Calligraphy and painting are linked, and there has never been a great painter who is not good at calligraphy." He gets up at dawn every day, smells the chicken dancing in front of Shi Guwen and Han Li-700 words, and then starts a day's painting class. Shi Zuquan is a quiet old man over the age of ancient times. He thoroughly understands the essence of ancient paintings and has vivid charm. He has deep feelings for Mr. Wu Bozhi, a master of Chinese painting. For decades, he has been studying the art of Chinese painting, bearing in mind Mr. Wu's teaching of "learn from me and live like me". He became a great painter under the careful guidance of Mr. Wang, Mr. Zhu Lesan and Mr. Lu. 2005 is the year of rooster. The painter who belongs to chickens keeps a large number of chickens in his old-fashioned small wall door. He carefully observed how chickens hatch, break their shells, eat, fight, crow and flap their wings. He sketched, drawing dozens of sketches every day. Later, although I stopped raising chickens, I still insisted on watching and drawing chickens every day. His family lives in Welfare New Village, the site of Shuiting, not far from Wu Shan, and it takes more than half an hour to walk. There are chickens in the three temples in Wu Shan, and he goes to see them every day. In his pen, the expression of chicken is ever-changing. No matter how the shape changes, one thing remains the same, that is, the chickens in his works are always full of energy and high morale. With excellent pen and ink skills, he won the reputation of "Qiantang Chicken King". On the road of Chinese painting, he is an ascetic. Sometimes in order to draw a good picture, he will draw it dozens of times at a time. Realize your own "Tao" in constant sketching. He has lost count of how many useless pictures he has drawn. "I paint mainly to get an outlet for my mind. Chinese painting is a combination of lines and Mo Yun. Lines are the bones of Chinese painting, and calligraphy is the art of lines. " -Shi Zuquan attaches great importance to the application of calligraphy lines in Chinese painting. In his works, the cock's powerful wings are actually expressed in splash-ink calligraphy, and its lines have a golden stone flavor. Picture and reality are mixed, dynamic and static are combined, and personality is publicized. As a painter of the older generation, Shi Zuquan has profound attainments in traditional pen and ink, but he is also a painter who constantly strives for change. He is modest and open-minded, and his painting style is fresh and simple. His pen and ink are hearty, bold in color and ingenious in composition. No wonder the flowers and birds he painted have both form and spirit, and their manners are myriad.
