Wild grass is magnificent. Looking at the sky like the sea, when the tide is high, it roars and surges, like thunder and thunder, with infinite strength; When the tide ebbs, it leaves, just like spinning; In the event of a storm, it will turn over the sea and swallow mountains and rivers.
Smooth and unrestrained lines, ups and downs of stippling, heavy as clouds, light as cicadas, soft as spinning, lingering, moist as spring rain, dry as autumn wind, bitter as winter without wet color, dull as falling rocks, and come to an abrupt end.
The origin of weeds
Calligraphy is really a mysterious art, especially weeds. The author is often full of passion, in a state of excitement, and the reader vaguely feels some emotion from the pen and ink.
In fact, this is the characteristic of an expressionist art, and Wild Grass has existed since the Tang Dynasty. At that time, painting was basically a meticulous painting, and Dan Fan spent a long time painting his eyes and eyebrows.
Even Expressionism painting, like Wu Daozi, will eventually be limited by the form of things and cannot be completely released. In this case, if there are weeds in calligraphy, you can borrow them to fully express your feelings or emotions. This is probably the main reason for the emergence of expressionist calligraphy.
