Ju Lian (September 22, 1828 – May 5, 1904), a native of Jiashan Township, Panyu County, Guangdong Province (now part of Haizhu District, Guangzhou), was a chinese poet. Ju Lian is a famous Chinese painter in the Lingnan region of modern China, who is good at painting flowers, birds, grass insects and figures, especially in sketching. And his brother's nest and called "two residences".
He first learned From Song Guangbao and Meng Litang, he later absorbed the heads of each family and became a family of his own. On the basis of inheriting and developing Yun Shouping's boneless painting method, the method of bumping water and colliding with powder has been widely used, inheriting, developing and improving the art of "Jupai".
The "bumping into water and colliding with powder" method in the Gongbi painting method, in which the word "collision" reflects the essence of the painting method. Between water and color, water and ink, color and color, once the "collision" technique is used on the screen, it can be vivid and abnormal, and it is ever-changing. The texture effect in the painting makes the formal beauty of the picture fully expressed. The layers of textures, the ink, color and indescribable meaning of the dripping ink all give people a novel beauty. The strength of the mottled ink color on the screen, a little, wired, and faceted, is intertwined in a very natural and harmonious way, forming a special rhythm and rhythm between dry, wet, thick, light, virtual, real, gathering, and scattering, not only that, but even the texture itself has a strong sense of formal beauty.
The "hitting the water and hitting the powder" method is another realistic method of writing that is different from the hook filling method. Ticking relies on rendering to complete the transition between thickness and lightness, and the "collision of water and powder" law is achieved by colliding with two or more colors. For example, painting purple petals, a pen dipped in purple from the flower tray part to the direction of the petal tip, a pen dipped in ochre yellow, from the tip of the petal to the direction of the flower holder, the two colors collide in the petal, and then inject a little water into the bright side of the petal. Due to the action of moisture, the colors gradually penetrate and merge with each other, resulting in the effect from dark to light, from purple to ochre, and the changes are rich and natural.
The requirements for the use of water in the "hitting water and hitting powder" method are extremely accurate, and the amount of water that is colored from the thickness and lightness of the coloring to the paper surface must be paid attention to. Color grading is too thick, it will cause condensation is difficult to make, too light is the picture weight is insufficient, the paper color, too little water, it is impossible to make the color and color, between color and water, color and white powder between interpenetration, too much water is difficult to dry up, produce water stains, which must also be more pondered in practice. In short, the effect of the "hitting the water and hitting the powder" method should be both realistic and meticulous, both form and spirit, and also rich and harmonious, bright and beautiful, especially with a transparent, clean and elegant atmosphere.
Large-scale "water collision powder" is the use of cooked rice paper does not absorb water color characteristics, with a large amount of water, color alluvial flow, cooked rice paper soaked in water naturally wrinkled, the formation of high and low concave and convex changes, water color naturally flow to the low place, so that the concave water color is naturally more than the convex part, due to uneven drying and wet, in the drying process will appear various shapes of water marks.
The powder bumping method is to crash in with white powder when the color is not dry, so that the white powder floats on the color surface, resulting in moist loosening, natural and harmonious changes. This technique is most used in purple, yellow, and red, and has a special effect on the natural shape of the rounded curls such as petals. The law of water collision is to dip the water from the light surface of the branches and leaves to inject the undried ink color into the dry ink, so that the ink and color are condensed at one end or deposited on the edge, and the resulting shades of light and shade naturally express the change of yin and yang concave and convex, and often leave a line of heavy water stains or ink stains on the edge of the contour after drying. The outer outline of the object is very particular about the bone method of Chinese painting. The combination of the use of pen and ink and the technique of "hitting water and hitting powder" produces a natural and subtle effect, without traces of carving and carving, but it is closely related to the mastery and application of pen and ink and moisture.
