Chinese painting, all on the six laws, but also take the six laws as their own. Thus, no one does not talk about the vivid rhyme, no one does not talk about the bone method with the pen, etc. Therefore, the Six Laws have become the standard of Chinese painting. If you think about it, is art a product of the framework? Was Chinese painting created for the Six Laws argument? Therefore, the observance of the Six Laws should be regarded as a discussion issue in the academic circles of Chinese painting.

There is nothing wrong with the establishment of the Six Laws, and as a criterion for judging Chinese painting. It also established standards for the painting theory of Chinese painting. However, to create all the six laws as the criterion, it is a bit away from the value of artistic existence, and also brings Chinese painting into a bound strap. The vivid rhyme in the Six Laws is the evaluation of the work of the viewer and the appreciator after the painting is completed, that is, the name of a masterpiece of the world. The state of its emergence is not intentional, nor is it the direction of the painter's creation. In contrast, many painters now evaluate their paintings and say that their works are vivid and funny. Modern painters use qi rhyme vividly for their own creative goals and directions, which is even more ridiculous. To know a painting, the painter's creation is based on intention, it is made with emotion, it is lyrical, it is lyrical. Qi rhyme is naturally generated through pen and ink because of its feelings and meanings. Not for the sake of rhyme. Because there is affection and intention, and there is no pen and ink, the rhyme is not born, there is a pen and ink, and the ruthless meaning is also not born. Therefore, the charm is formed by the painter in necessity and chance. It is a state of unattainable desire.
The bone method with the pen also circles the way chinese painting uses the pen, and there are people who have the heart to crown the bone method with a title of a center pen. This is even more ridiculous. Its understanding should be to use a pen, to have "bone strength, bone strength, bone feeling" rather than a way and behavior of using a pen. It can be seen that modern people use pens for bone methods and pens for centers. It's funny to hear. The "method of bearing the bone" lies in the understanding and study of the pen, in the control of the pen, and in the connection between the intention and the pen. To know that the picture wants to appear vivid, in addition to affection and intention, the key lies in the use of pen. Priorities in the line pen, changes in the scratch dot dye in the line pen. And that's not something that can be done with a pen by a center. Therefore, the "bone method pen" is the effect of understanding and controlling the pen. It is the art critic's assessment of a painter's use of the pen, not the painter's way of using the pen.
