Biography of a calligrapher

Yuan Ruigong, born in 1956, has a college degree and has worked in coal mines.

After more than a half of life, I understand that choosing my favorite profession is very important, I like art, should be engaged in the cause of art, it is often said that men do not choose the wrong line, if you find this secret early, maybe you can really do some results, unfortunately, in your fifties to know that the art industry is suitable for me, after retirement, really involved in the art field, it is good to start at what time to start.

The idle passages are turned over, and the books are returned to the truth. Confucius said: Those who know are not as good as those who are good, and those who are good are not as good as those who are happy. The meaning of this sentence is that the person who understands it is not as good as the person who loves it, and the person who loves him is not as good as the person who takes pleasure in it. My study of calligraphy is from a good start, when I was in elementary school, under the guidance of the teacher (uncle of the family), I wrote a piece of imitation every day (this is an additional lesson), after a period of time, the horizontal and vertical skimming has a look, the teacher nodded his head when reading the paper, and said yes, the red circle given is more and more, you don't have to say, when the students who don't like the teacher praise, these red circles are not simple, the encouragement to me is too big, it is my hungry pie, the driving force for me to move forward. Because of this, "horses do not whip themselves to work hard," the teacher's brush writing is particularly beautiful, and the teaching level is famous throughout the county, which has left a profound impact on me. At that time, I only felt good, but I couldn't call it what kind of body it was, and later I learned that it was thanks to Yan Zhenqing's calligraphy, plus his own penmanship and ingenious play, forming a unique line of letters, and then came into contact with some of my uncle's pen letters, and I felt that there was a difference in the same work.

"The path of calligraphy, the beginning is not urgent, sometimes or pay attention, as if it is better than abandoning the day." Those who have not learned in all the arts are also those who have not learned. When I was in middle school, the teacher saw that I wrote well, let me run a board newspaper, put down the brush to write chalk words, used the pen to play different roles, the arm strength increased significantly, and the students stopped to watch the eyes, which made me feel a little proud in my soul. When I was studying in the provincial capital in 1986, I found that there were two books in the bookstore of the Party School, one was the "Practical Dictionary of Calligraphy and Painting Seal Engraving" of the Shanghai Calligraphy and Painting Publishing House, and the other was a pocket painting book of the Jiangsu Fine Arts Publishing House. The two books added up to just a dozen dollars, and at that time, I was shy, I hesitated around, and finally a strong curiosity overcame reason and gritted my teeth to buy it. From the dictionary of calligraphy and painting seal engraving, we can see clear traces of the history of calligraphy, the representative figures of calligraphy and painting of various dynasties, the works of inscriptions, calligraphy terms, everything, painting, seal engraving and calligraphy introduction. I can't have money in my pocket, and as soon as I have money, I want to go around the bookstore, and I am particularly interested in ancient texts, including oracle bones, gold scripts, and simple books.

Kong Baiyun's "Introduction to Seal Engraving" made me fall in love with seal engraving seals, the first chapter, the name seal, the Ji language seal, the Xiao shape seal, the accumulation of more than a hundred, not satisfied with the grinding and then engraving, engraving and grinding, practicing the knife method and the chapter method, people call the seal engraving seal printing as square inch art, between the square inches, the artistic elements are not less. His works participated in the provincial industry calligraphy and painting seal engraving exhibition and won the third prize. For a while, the work was idle, fascinated by the art of root carving, a saw, a carving knife, a wooden file, began to cook tree roots (eight hours), peeling, conceiving, molding, yin drying, polishing, painting, each completed a work, love to let go, play for a few days to be able to have fun, a series of root art works have participated in the Datong Spring Festival Exhibition, won the second prize, and self-seal text and works published in the coal mine authoritative magazine "Sunshine." Art" 2012 Issue II.

The rapid development of the times, the prosperity and strength of China, it is a good time for art workers to play a role, an unprecedented opportunity for traditional culture, the popularization of the Internet, for good scholars to say that it is a great gospel, the computer to query ancient calligraphers, calligraphy reviews, calligraphy works are easy. To tell the truth, I can't understand Wang Xizhi's Orchid Pavilion Sequence (lack of skill), it takes time to study and understand, and one day I can understand it, but the SeventeenThi Post is more smooth, and I prefer Zhong Xizhi's "Declaration Form." Tang Shisun went through the court book, and it was difficult to get up, but it was very refreshing to come to the "Buddha's Testament Teaching Sutra". Huai Su's calligraphy is my best, I have been to the fish eating post, the Virgin Mary post. Self-narration is difficult and difficult. Wang Pet in the Song Dynasty, Zhang Ruitu in the Ming Dynasty, Zheng Banqiao in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and Mao Zedong in the contemporary era are all my favorite calligraphers.

Many of our works have not yet been carefully studied, let alone Linmu, such as Zhang Xu, Yan Zhenqing, Mi Fu, and Su Dongpo. Calligraphy is the Dharma, and using the Buddha's heart to understand calligraphy is what kind of realm is that?

——Remember the famous calligrapher Yuan Ruigong

The calligrapher Mr. Yuan Ruigong is a very emotional artist. This can be seen and experienced from an article he wrote about the experience of narrative calligraphy. In the article, he recounts his relationship with calligraphy and his original intention of working hard but not forgetting the lyricism of pen and ink. From learning to write the heart, to Linchi non-stop, to the enlightenment calligraphy, the story is eloquent, and the true feelings are full. It is also based on this sentiment that his calligraphy has a suitable book atmosphere. Calligraphy has achieved his literati cultivation, and he has given calligraphy a copy of the Jin rhyme and Song meaning of ancient and modern continuations. Therefore, in his calligraphy works, one by one, there are often confucian and elegant experiences that are clear and clear, gentle and smooth!

The book has words, and the law is not deceived. A calligrapher's real calligraphy background does not need to be prefaced or otherwise, but first look at the level of calligraphy practice. Mr. Yuan Ruigong has experienced calligraphy, has a refined study of the body of calligraphy, in his early years he was obsessed with the pondering of the declaration table, combed through the circle and vividness of Wei Jin Xiaokai, wrote suppressed left and right, rich and multi-divine, can be described as The details of the Kaijing method, written into a first-hand Jinshu golden character, making its calligraphy special! Later, he also cultivated Yan Jian Liu Bone, Wei Bei Twenty Pins, and Ou Kai's Dangerous Pen, studied the calligraphy of Kai thoroughly, turned other methods into my use, integrated and penetrated, and finally could be used as a side pen like a bird falling, and the pen was hurried to go and slow down, and the eight methods of work were proficient in everything, laying a deep foundation for the rigor of his calligraphy. This is also an important support for his calligraphy to have the ultimate professional charm. With this support, of course, you can become a powerful faction in the team of calligraphers, and you can be the mainstay!

Mr. Yuan Ruigong adhered to the spirit of strict calligraphy and strict law, and while practicing the calligraphy, he also studied the various bodies of the seal in an all-round way, and also wrote rigorously and thoughtfully, so that the "Qin Zhi Kai Shu" and "Han Zhi Kai Shu" could also be written in a fair and fair manner, without any drawbacks. Of course, his calligraphy creation has a deep intention for the grass, and he has a great pursuit of the persistence of "becoming undulating in the sharp edge between strokes, and being frustrated by the slightest" within a point. In the process of xicheng xingcao, he walked through the path of "Xi Xianzi descending, Yu Lu Xiangcheng" two kings system Xicheng path, and also walked through the path of "following the madness, who knows not", on the whole, he inherited the mainstream path of the development and evolution of the grass quite comprehensively, and finally had a transparent insight into the calligraphy conception of the hairy wild grass, so that his calligraphy can borrow the ancient to open up the present, enter the road of pen and ink as the times, make his own efforts for the continuity of calligraphy culture in ancient and modern times, and open up his own artistic sky!

Many books are successful. Because there are many eruditions in calligraphy, Mr. Yuan Ruigong does not want his style to be fixed in a certain form. In Yuan Ruigong's view, the broad spirit of the Chinese calligraphy system needs to be explored through a lifetime of hard work, and only when the style is uncertain can we be brave! Therefore, on the road of calligraphy study, Mr. Yuan Ruigong is willing to regard himself as a pilgrim who pursues the origin of calligraphy culture! Only the pilgrimage posture and psychology can study a "book book" thoroughly, and can we use pen and ink to talk to Su Huangmicai. Therefore, looking at his calligraphy, he has the most extensive atmosphere, both the demeanor of Bo Yingyou and the thinness of Huaisu cursive, the ancient thin and semi-inkless, and the iron point silver hook is the most spiritual. There is also the magic of Zhang Xu cursive, the dragon jumping heavenly gate tiger lying phoenix que! Walking into the calligraphy with a pilgrimage posture, and finally letting Yuan Ruigong's calligraphy of all bodies can establish a heart for calligraphy and continue to learn for the saints!
