Ren Yin New Year records the heart of the painting
——Zhang Xianke
The painter depicts everything in his heart with pen and ink. The scenes and meanings presented in the pen are all brewed and formed in the chest. Although painting is purely a hobby for me, it is a deep and sincere love, and I have been diligently pursuing it for more than thirty years without any slackness. Although the landscape, flowers, birds, and characters are all involved in the study, I especially like to write freehand flowers and birds.
Wandering in the art of the Lin Fu Guangsha, the heart chases the hand, the teacher is natural, although it is painstaking and hardworking, for a long time, but it is difficult to peek into the mystery, the taste of the bitter self-knowledge. Only by taking root in life, inheriting traditions, and daring to make breakthroughs can artistic creation move from inheritance to innovation, and only by reading more classics, cultivating morality, and Taoist nature can we cultivate paintings with learning and cultivation, which is the so-called "creation of foreign teachers, the source of the heart".
In my creation, I try to shape ink lines, use each other skillfully, and strengthen the expressiveness of the lines. Advocate bold pen drop, carefully clean up, before the pen to the shape, structure, texture, dynamic performance of the painted objects to do a good idea, so that the pen and ink and the expression of the object into one, do not show the traces of pen and ink, hold the other is to paint flowers and birds, and strive to show the objects vividly.
In terms of creative themes, I think it is necessary to be simple and natural, so that the viewer can easily enter the realm of the picture and have resonance and empathy. To inject their own sense of truth, to increase the fun, express life, and praise the times. A picture is a symphony of nature, to distinguish the priority and order, to cooperate with each other, the scenery should complement each other, harmonious nature, good works can be fascinating, thought-provoking, can make the viewer feel relaxed, appreciate the infinite fun of nature, let people's spirit be purified and sublimated.
