One of the works
In a calligraphy and painting institute in the hometown of Shusheng, the author met Mr. Zhang Zhenshi. I haven't seen him for two years, and Mr. Zhang Zhenshi has not changed much, and he is still humorous and radiant. We sat down for tea and talked about what happened after the farewell. Over the years, he has developed in Beijing and gained a great reputation. The author learned from his Kuaishou and WeChat circle of friends that he has not only made a qualitative leap in the art of calligraphy, but also has a place in the art circle. He traveled to almost all the places where the great man's poems were described, and wrote the relevant poems into calligraphy masterpieces and presented them to the local government. He also went from a Mao calligraphy enthusiast to a famous Mao calligraphy artist in China.
