Painting and Writing Kapok Love Sending LiXiang - Reading the works of Mr. Wang Liang, Chairman of the Oriental City Artists Association (published in "Successful Calligraphers and Painters in the West").
Mr. Wang Liang's painting "Returning to The Pastoral Under the Red Cotton"
The mountains and streams and paddy fields under the fire mahogany trees, the village dwellings and pastoralists of the island Lizhai, the large harbor bay in the coconut wind, the fishermen and birds and finches who pick up the nets under the hazy moonlight, and the wild ferry boats in the silent night. From this point of view, the scenery taken and the landscape involved in the paintings of Mr. Wang Liang, a Painter of Hainan, are all familiar hometown customs, the quaint villages of Lixiang in Qiongdao Island, the tropical landscape of Hainan that is different from the Central Plains, and also the brush and ink reflection of the painter's observation and sketching between the landscapes and the Miao village of Licun, the feeling of body and materiality, and the scene of the mountains and rivers created by the heart teacher.
Mr. Wang Liang's painting "Red Incense"
The author's appreciation of "Successful Calligraphers and Painters in the West" recently published Mr. Wang Liang's "Return to The Pastoral Under the Red Cotton" and "Hanging Moon Return" and other works found that in the artistic absorption and general refinement of the island style, the painter's thoughts based on the times and regions, the deep and rich homeland feelings, and the dove collection and integration give the typical objects of the close-up, reflecting the distinct aesthetic interest and idyllic poetry. In the Ming Dynasty, Wang Lu said: "My master's heart, heart master's eye, and eye master Huashan", and Mr. Wang Liang is the natural wind object of the "eye master" island. It can be seen that Mr. Wang Liang's paintings can write the truth of the island "Li Zhai", and its spirituality lies in his sketching and exploration of the most familiar and favorite hometown landscapes that go deep into the bone marrow, and in the sincere expression of the corresponding and chanting disposition when encountering things.
Mr. Wang Liang's painting "Peaceful Picture"
For example, in the work "Peaceful Picture", the ancient li thatched houses dyed with thick ink color, the sparsely laid hedges written by the ink thick lines, the tall and tall coconut trees with hooks, the muddy sky brought by the ink paving, the labor villagers with the shape of the simple pen line, and the stream soup brought by the light ink halo, etc., the painter used pure and rich ink language to depict the vivid and vivid pastoral scene of Qiongdao With black and white and colorful picture contrast. On the illustration, the distant mountains and clouds and waters are connected, the streams meander between the reefs and mountains, and then there are coconut trees with high and mountain qi interspersed with cloth Chen, making the whole picture space seem open and far away. In the picture, the leisurely residents of Qiongdao Island, the three or five birds and finches flying in the sky, the wooden bridge elevated between the cliffs of the stream, and the objects such as the shepherd children and goats in the morning are dotted, the movement and stillness are photographed, the mountains and rivers rely on each other and blend into nature, and the peace and tranquility are full of vivid and simple life atmosphere.

This is just as the ancient Zong Bing said, "If a husband takes the eye to know the heart as the reason, and if it is a coincidence, the eye should also be the same, and the heart will also be the same." Mr. Wang Liang exercised his pen and ink in his familiar life, nourished his art in the beloved Kapok LiXiang, and "the same root with creation, and the same as yin and yang" and observed the principle of heaven and earth, so he achieved his rhyme in black and white, meaning in reason, and overflowing with the good picture of the island.
Mr. Wang Liang's painting "The Wind and Moon Passing By"
Therefore, the fishing village alleys we see in "Wind and Moon Passing" are lined with mottled stone walls, stone bridges, and cute puppies dotted in the gaps in the picture. Whether it is the hard stone outline of the pen line, the rough texture of the scorched ink, the traces of the erosion of the wind and rain of the years presented by the illusion of ink painting, or the tall wall that makes up the upper stone stack, the contrast with the size of the fishing village dog created by the abstract pen line and the ink dot, the affectionate creatures and images embellished with the gods, we can see the acquisition of learning and understanding the operation structure immersed in the objective world, and also see the artist's artistic concept of being loyal to life, mastering the creation of the law, and dominating life and creating affection.
Mr. Wang Liang's painting "Hanging moon returns"
Mr. Li Keyan said: "If the sketch only outlines, how can we draw the ever-changing landscape spiritual outlook of the time and place?" Therefore, the painter who absorbs from the teacher's creation of life and nature not only needs to take its form and reach its meaning, but should seek its charm and true meaning in the deep texture of mountains and stones, regional winds and objects, as well as the wind and clouds of heaven and earth, the glory and withering of the four hours, and the obscurity of the twilight. I think that Mr. Wang Liang's artistic creations that are both gods and forms of objects and gods in the Li villages and tropical kapok that the ancients rarely set foot in also reflect this. For example, in "Red Incense", the brush and ink of the Fa shanshui are taken, the painting language of the kapok tall tree trunk branches knotted and the leather mottled, and then there are vertical and horizontal branches interspersed, the bright fiery flower clusters brought by the red dense dot dyeing, and the personified "empathy" endowment that takes kapok as the main body of the picture and gives it the quality of "hero", all of which show the painter's comprehensive understanding of the physiological characteristics, humanistic essence and spiritual symbolism of the object of his painting, as well as the praise and praise of "kapok" based on it, which can be described as "the heart will melt" And painting kapok, love sent to Lixiang.
