All those who have established a school in the history of painting have their own unique style, such as Qi Baishi's creation of the safflower ink leaf freehand painting style, the formation of the Qi school, far-reaching influence; Zhang Daqian created a splash of color landscapes, a solo step in the painting world. The Lingnan School of painting Guan Shanyue, Li Xiongcai's personal disciple, the painter Cai Yunfei, after the systematic teacher of the ancients, the master, with the source of the heart as the observation, integrated and penetrated, created their own "five fusion techniques", to achieve the transformation of traditional brush and ink to modern, unique, self-made family law, in one fell swoop to lay the foundation of their status in the painting world. The "Five Fusion Techniques" are rich in content, diverse in form and widely used, and have a positive effect on promoting the development of Chinese painting.
Cai Yunfei "Spring Water Flowing Fragrance"
Pen and ink blend light and shadow, highlighting the beauty of the combination of East and West.
Cai Yunfei has many years of experience in copying ancient paintings, and has trained a strong foundation in traditional painting, he is familiar with traditional painting techniques, and applies them freely, often in a painting, using a variety of painting techniques, making the picture pen and ink brilliant and ancient. In order to express the magnificence of the mountains and rivers of the great motherland, Cai Yunfei actively introduced the expression method of light and shadow in Western painting while adhering to the traditional style of Chinese painting, so the beautiful scenery of mountains and rivers in his pen is often bright and dark, heavy light and shadow, and special. Therefore, the work has both the traditional meaning of Chinese painting and the three-dimensional sense, and under careful reading, the meaning is long and interesting, which greatly enriches the expression of Chinese painting.
Cai Yunfei's "Hukou Waterfall"
Splash color fusion texture, promote the development of splash color.
Splash color painting has been in the beginning for a long time, and it has been carried forward since Zhang Daqian began to develop. In his early years, Cai Yunfei was fond of Zhang Daqian and He Haixia's splashing style of painting, often watching and imitating, and could not help himself. At the suggestion of his mentor Guan Shanyue, Cai Yunfei had the experience of sketching for thousands of miles. This greatly broadened Cai Yunfei's horizons, not only appreciating the beauty of the motherland's mountains and rivers, but also laying the foundation for his in-depth thinking about artistic creation. Cai Yunfei found that Zhang Daqian He Haixia's splash of color, mainly shi qingshi green, is mostly used to express the beauty of the southern landscape, but yu the great rivers and mountains in the north have not been involved. The northern landscape has both a majestic and broad side, and a color illusion, such as the green and yellow phase of the Taihang cliff and the overlapping red rocks of the Danxia landform, which are very good subjects for Chinese painting.
Cai Yunfei"Desert Little Jiangnan"
More importantly, the texture of the mountain stone is less expressed by Zhang Daqian and He Haixia, and in view of this, Cai Yunfei began to innovate the splash painting. After years of artistic exploration and practice, on the basis of comprehensively inheriting the artistic achievements of Zhang Daqian and He Haixia, he has realized the exquisite expression of the fusion texture of splash color. In Cai Yunfei's pen, not only Shi Qing and Shi Green can be written, but also ochre and Zhu Biao can be splashed, and even according to the needs of art, they can reach the point of omnipotent, doing whatever they want without exceeding the rules. It can not only express the southern landscape, but also the northern landscape and even the northwest landscape. At the same time, he also perfectly presented the texture performance of his own practice and innovation for many years.
Cai Yunfei "Gulf Fishing Port"
In Cai Yunfei's hands, once all kinds of pigments are sprinkled, they transform into lush forests, majestic mountains, and cloudless leisurely heavens... Therefore, Cai Yunfei's works not only have a colorful splashing artistic effect, but also can be seen with vivid, longitudinal and horizontal mountain stone texture effects. It has greatly enriched the expression and content of splash painting and has epoch-making significance.
Cai Yunfei "A Thousand Peaks Of Jingcui"
Gongbi blends freehand and creates new expressions.
In the creative habits of Chinese painting, the two painting methods of brushwork and freehand painting have both differences in material and style. Therefore, successive generations of painters, the painter's brush is dedicated to the brush, and the freehand is dedicated to freehand, integrating the two into one, which not only requires a very high ability to control the pen and ink, but also has a very professional modeling ability, otherwise it will produce an indiscriminate effect. Cai Yunfei is bold and bold, and with his superb pen and ink ability and modeling ability, he successfully fused the two into one. Especially in the painting of flowers and birds, the flowers and birds are placed in the landscape of nature, and their brushwork is "delicate and precise, delicate and delicate", which mostly expresses the mood of flowers and birds; its freehand is "open and close, vertical and horizontal". More expression of the magnificence of the landscape. In a small painting, each one is good at winning, allowing people to experience the beauty of the art of the intersection of ice and fire.
Cai Yunfei "Fang Yan Brilliant"
Cai Yunfei", "Quiet Water Town"
Macro fusion micro, multi-perspective beauty.
Cai Yunfei's paintings are also a fusion of macroscopic and microscopic. Cai Yunfei is an obsessive artist of painting art, he is often intoxicated in the spectacular beauty of nature can not extricate himself, from the 1980s began in the past thirty years, he has been far away from the world, alone trekking between the mountains and rivers of the motherland, thousands of miles of sketching, which not only gives him the privilege of seeing the different styles of the north and south of the motherland, but also purifies his heart and mind, so that the composition of his landscape paintings is often magnificent, or take the high-altitude overlook, such as living in the 10,000 meters above the sky and looking down at the world; or take the mountain corner looking up, such as in the bottomless abyss, Look up at the Skyscraper Peaks, or broaden your horizons like a wide-angle camera that brings together thousands of mountains and rivers on a scale at the same time. In addition, he is good at dealing with the relationship between macro and micro, so that the two are perfectly integrated, so that the details are not lost in the small places, the bricks and tiles of the small bridge, the ripples of the flowing water, the skin of the branches, the edges and corners of the flowers and leaves, are clearly visible; the big place is full of power, the mountains are red, the layers of forests are dyed, the rivers and rivers are mirrored, and the leisure is endless, so that the viewer is suddenly open-minded and full of spirit.
Admiring Cai Yunfei's works, we all sighed that the painter had the courage to have audiovisual and visual miles and observe the eight wildernesses, and he used a huge brush like rafters to encompass thousands of rivers and mountains and thousands of scenes between the dimensions, giving people a great artistic shock. Macro and micro, in Cai Yunfei's paintings, are parallel and complement each other, making people feel sorry for them, and they are also surprised and delighted.
Earth Wonderland
Cai Yunfei, "The Red Army Overturns the Golden Mountain"
Tradition is integrated with modernity to complete the transformation of Chinese painting.
"Pen and ink when the times", Yu Yilu is both familiar with the road, but also to express the beauty of real mountains and real water, Cai Yunfei feels that traditional painting advocates the expression method of ink painting, which is not enough to express the magnificence of the great rivers and mountains in the new era, nor is it completely in line with the aesthetics of modern people. The ever-changing colors of nature are the source of artistic creation and the artistic realm that can most move people. Cai Yunfei, who is familiar with traditional pen and ink techniques such as "rubbing and dot dyeing", boldly integrates various colors into painting, so that the traditional pen and ink interest is combined with endless changes and rich and diverse colors, resulting in a new landscape pattern and contributing his own strength to the development of Chinese painting.
Cai Yunfei"Louguan Canghai Day"
Cai Yunfei paints, adhering to the principle of "the ancient masters are not as good as the teachers, and the teachers are still in the times", insisting on painting for more than ten hours a day, and insisting on sketching in various places all year round. He has traveled all over the north and south of the great river, inside and outside the Great Wall, the northern country of the silhouette, the gentle Jiangnan, and he is presented in his paintings. Kong Zhongqi, a master of landscape painting, commented on Cai Yunfei's artistic characteristics before his death: "Fresh and bright, thick and broad". Xiao Feng, former president of the China Academy of Art, said: "Cai Yunfei completed the transformation of Chinese painting from tradition to modernity. The famous art critic Sun Ke commented on Cai Yunfei: "The picture is true, and the heavens and men are one." Wang Ping, president and editor-in-chief of China Art Newspaper, believes that Cai Yunfei's art is "a creation of no ancients before." The above comments can be described as incisive words, and also represent the high recognition of Cai Yunfei by the art world. Cai Yunfei's "Five Fusion Techniques" will surely write a more glorious page in the history of Chinese art.
