The forms of calligraphy and painting are as follows:
1. Banner: Banner is a very common form in calligraphy and painting works. It is usually rectangular, and the length-to-width ratio can be determined according to the author's creative intentions and aesthetic needs. Banners can be hung individually or in parallel, making them ideal for displaying poems, aphorisms or long text content. Because they are intuitive and decorative, banners are popular in study rooms, living rooms and other places.
2. Zhongtang: Zhongtang refers to the large calligraphy and painting hanging in the middle of the hall. It is usually large in size, broad in picture, and majestic. The content of the nave is diverse, which can be landscapes, flowers and birds, figures, etc., but no matter what the subject matter is, the overall sense and visual impact of the picture are emphasized. The nave is an important part of home decoration and can highlight the owner's taste and cultural heritage.
3. Dou Fang: Dou Fang is a smaller format among calligraphy and painting works. Its size is close to a square, which is very suitable for expressing delicate content such as sketches, flowers and birds. Although the fighting party is small, it requires exquisite pictures and clever composition, which can reveal the big from the small, showing the author's artistic skills and aesthetic taste. Due to its moderate size, Dou Fang is particularly suitable for hanging in small spaces such as study rooms and bedrooms.

2. Composition: Composition is the skeleton of calligraphy and painting works. We should pay attention to the overall layout of the picture, so that the priorities are clear and the density is consistent. At the same time, contrast, echo and other techniques must be used to create a sense of layering and space in the picture.
3. Ink color: Ink color is the soul of calligraphy and painting works. You must learn to use different ink colors to express the charm and artistic conception of the picture. Through different ink color changes such as thick ink, light ink, dry ink, wet ink, etc., you can create rich visual effects and emotional atmosphere.
4. Artistic conception: Artistic conception is the highest state of calligraphy and painting works. When creating, you should focus on expressing your own thoughts, emotions and aesthetic pursuits, and create profound artistic conception and connotation through the organic combination of picture images and pen and ink language. This requires the author to have high cultural literacy and aesthetic ability, and to be able to integrate his own personality and emotions into the work.
