Looking at the entire history of Chinese calligraphy, you will find that every calligrapher who can leave a name in history has undergone a process of gradual maturity, from ancient times to the present, no exception, Mr. Qi Gong is the same, the works in 1994 and the mature "Qi Gong body" can be said to be very different, but from the overall point of view, it is very attractive, that year, for Mr. Qi Gong, only 32 years old, is the real year of establishment, and his works are permeated with a hint of stability, not impatient, It feels very down-to-earth, so let's walk into mr. Qi Gong's 32-year-old works together.
From this work, and the mature "Qi Gong body" is almost as if the two wrote, although so, this work is very ugly, but also reflects mr. Qi Gong's traditional calligraphy skills are very deep, from this work can also see the prototype of the "Qi Gong body", from the overall observation, this work is more similar to the famous qing Dynasty calligrapher Liang Shizheng, we know that Liang Shi is the Qianlong Emperor's "royal calligrapher", his book rules are neat, rigorous, and flowing natural, There is always a sense of freedom, and Mr. Qi Gong also has great admiration for Liang Shizheng in the Qing Dynasty, and from this work you can see Liang Shizheng's shadow, which shows that he has also made great efforts in writing Liang Shizheng's calligraphy.
From this work, we can see a lot of differences, especially compared with the mature "Qi Gong body", this work is more calm in the use of the pen, although Mr. Qi Gong was very young at that time, but did not see a sense of impetuosity, especially pay attention to the thickness of the line, the thickness of the contrast is very obvious, and this contrast, not only reflected in a word, but also reflects the word between the word, in short, is to show a different feeling, this work, the line book and the letter mixed with each other, both the correct and beautiful of the book, and the flow of the book, Viewed holistically, the effect is very good, and there is also a strong visual impact.
This work from 1994, although not a mature "Qi Gong body", is more attractive and regular than the "Qi Gong body", which cannot be denied, and the lines are more stable and flexible, which is handled very well.
