1. Preparation:
Find a suitable handwritten newspaper or cardboard as the backing paper. Prepare painting tools such as meticulous brush, writing brush, colored pen and watercolor paint. Poems of Su Shi (word Dongpo), a litterateur in Song Dynasty, can be found in books, internet or other channels.
2. Design and layout:
First of all, the overall design and layout planning are carried out on handwritten newspaper paper, and appropriate background patterns or colors can be selected. According to the size of handwritten newspaper and personal preference, decide the number of poems to be handwritten.
Handwritten poems
Hand-write the selected Dongpo poems in turn on the handwritten newspaper, either with a fine pen or with a brush to keep the beauty of calligraphy. Pay attention to the strength of the pen and the posture of writing, and strive to make every word clear and neat.
4. Decorations and illustrations:
According to the content and artistic conception of poetry, illustrations or decorative elements, such as flowers, landscapes and animals, can be appropriately added to enrich the visual effect of handwritten newspapers. Use colored pens or watercolor pigments to make illustrations more vivid.
5. Add a title and border:
Above or below the handwritten newspaper, choose the appropriate title according to the content, which can be decorated with large font or special font. You can draw a border around the handwritten newspaper to add beauty and integrity.
6. Modification and retouching:
Check the details of the whole handwritten newspaper, and correct and polish the places where the handwriting is vague and the color is not bright. Pay attention to check whether there are typos or missing poems, so as to be accurate.
7. Su Shi's life:
Su Shi's life was ups and downs, and he traveled everywhere, and his life experience was extremely rich. He is good at summing up experience from life experience and seeing laws from objective things. In his eyes, ordinary life content and natural scenery contain profound truth, such as Xilin Wall Topic and Mianchi Nostalgia.
In these poems, natural phenomena rise to philosophy, and the perception of life is also transformed into rational thinking. What is particularly commendable is that the philosophy in poetry is naturally expressed through vivid and distinctive artistic images, rather than through logical deduction or discussion and analysis.
This kind of poem is both beautiful and interesting, worthy of the name. "I don't know the true face of Lushan Mountain" and "Snow Mud Red Claw" became a popular idiom as soon as they came out, which shows that Su Shi's reasonable poems are widely loved. There are many similar works in Su Shi's poems, such as the Sangha Pagoda in Sizhou, drinking the rain after the Qing Dynasty on the lake, and the wind in Cihu.
Abstract: The making of handwritten newspaper is a process that needs patience and care. Through preliminary preparation, layout design, calligraphy poems, decorative illustrations, adding title borders and other steps, a beautiful handwritten newspaper of Dongpo's poems can be produced, showing the charm and artistic beauty of Dongpo's literature.
