1. Huangjiatu: The fat lotus leaf painted in Huangjiatu has begun to wither, and a crab crawls slowly, leaving a large blank to express autumn water. The composition is concise and refined, and the layout is fresh and ingenious. There is an inscription by Xu Wei on the upper right, saying, "Although there are magnificent things, whether there are pearls in Mo Wen over the years is unknown, and it has been passed down to Huangjia alone."
Xu Wei used bold and unrestrained pen and ink to outline the crawling posture of crabs and the autumn breath of lotus leaves. This painting also satirizes Jinshi Jiake, ridiculing those people who have no sense of shame but can becomeno. 1 by relationship or money through the rude image of crabs.
A proper amount of glue is added to the ink in the picture to prevent the ink from seeping out, which is precisely the characteristic of this painting. In the picture, the lotus leaf is painted with dripping ink, and the crab is painted with a few strokes, which seems to be scribbled, but in fact there are many strokes, such as thick, light, dry, wet, tick, wipe and dot. Although the shape is exaggerated, it is very interesting.
Xu Wei used bold and unrestrained pen and ink to outline the crawling posture of crabs and the autumn breath of lotus leaves. Although the shape of crab is simple, it is drawn by many strokes together, and its shape, texture and even expression are quite vivid.
2. Ink Peony Map: Xu Wei's Ink Peony Map in Beijing Palace Museum, pen and paper 109.2×33cm. Peony is one of Xu Wei's favorite flowers. Xu Wei's brushwork peony is unprecedented. He didn't use color, just splashed ink. Both flower heads and leaves are heavily dyed, and only branches and veins are drawn into lines.
This is the peony flower head. The petals are dipped in ink, the inner end of the petals is deep and the outer end is shallow, the middle part of the flower head is shallow and the periphery is deep. After the flower head is finished, wet the stamens with heavy ink. The whole work, regardless of layout, pen and ink, is vigorous and bold, magnificent, well-organized, moist with ink and wash, and full of business. Although painted in ink, it is rich and solemn in appearance, which is one of Xu Wei's representative works.
Three. Ink grape map: Xu Wei's ink grape map, paper ink ink 1 16.4x64.3cm, collected in Beijing Palace Museum. "Ink-and-wash Grape Map" has a peculiar composition, seemingly random, but it creates a moving momentum and a crystal clear artistic effect of grapes. This painting draws grapes in pure ink, smearing them at will and hanging the branches upside down, which is vivid. The vines droop.
With the freehand brushwork method of full water, the grape branches and leaves are stippled and the ink is smooth. The pen is cursive, incisively and vividly, and the poems and books are properly combined in the picture. The author combines ink grapes with his own life experience, a kind of helpless resentment and struggle that he has suffered a lot and is hard to pay, and expresses it with pen and ink.
