Artistic conception is an important law for evaluating Chinese painting, and it also reflects the character quality of the creator. The calligraphers and painters express their sense of life in their works, combined with the spirit of the times of art and life, and pursue the realm of "the unity of nature and man, and the forgetting of things and me". The famous calligrapher and painter I want to introduce to you today is The "ghost talent" Bian Shucai in the painting world.
Bian Shucai is a member of the China Artists Association, a national first-class artist, the vice chairman of the Chinese Calligraphy and Painting Famous Artists Research Association, a director of the Chinese Calligraphy and Painting Association, and a full-time painter of the China Ink Painting Academy. His works are rich in content, smooth in pen and ink, and his distinct personal art style has won praise from all walks of life and has been collected by leaders of many countries.
Bian Shucai is known for his good at painting Bell Kui and historical magical figures, and his bold blank space combined with the spiritual and mysterious painting style breaks the traditional Chinese ink painting composition, line and color combination routine. At the same time, Bian Shucai is also flowing and ancient, and the hidden traces of the fairy wind in the picture can always cause endless reverie.
Zhong Kui is a favorite character created by Bian Shucai, and his Zhong Kui has a thousand postures, or draws a sword and dances, or has a fluttering beard, and his expression is not the same, or he looks at him angrily, or looks up to the sky and thinks long. Bian Shucai once said that he hoped to use his zhong kui to dispel the ghosts and monsters in this world. Just like Bian Shucai's personality, his works full of wonders are also simple and atmospheric, majestic and bold.
On the road of calligraphy and painting, Bian Shucai was obsessed with his hobbies and dreams, and specialized in ancient characters for decades. Although the subject matter is mostly taken from historical allusions, it has opened up a new path in the expression method. Using the technique of Chinese painting, in the expression of the expression of the characters, it adopts the technique of oil painting realism, so that the characters in the work are not only illusory in real life, but also flexible in the artistic conception of the work.
All along, in the creation, Bian Shucai has been adhering to the freehand tradition of Chinese painting and the spirit of pen and ink as the temperament, through skillful brushwork and personalized thinking performance, making the character image of the work more vivid and natural, and can more appropriately express life. Art comes from life, and what can touch people's hearts must be from the parts that can resonate in everyone's hearts, so Bian Shucai pays more attention to sincere expression, and what is displayed in the works is his pursuit of art and his love for life.
