Yang Xin: The smile is like a flower, and the pen is beautiful

I met Yang Xin at the Tsinghua Academy of Fine Arts in Gaobeidian.

She is accustomed to short hair, professional dresses, gentle and elegant conversation, often exuding a positive smile, a celebrity painter said of her: "The sugar content of speech is too rich, people are too beautiful, and it is easy to be jealous of the lady." Despite this evaluation, I still like to tutor Yang Xin in painting.

Originally from Shandong, he grew up in the northeast, and had both the character and virtue of qilu sages and the hot and spicy intestines of the northeast narrow customers.

Interviewing Yang Xin, I feel that the super strong is still her talent, and in the instant of the meal, she can export into poetry and improvise chanting. At the time of small talk, she actually introduced herself like this: "Hard study for decades, borrowing the canal." The poor man returned to the old village, and the tired bird belonged to the autumn forest. He said that life is bitter, and everyone is in the dust. In his prime, he was born with huafa and did not groan for Liang Fu. Poor pursuit of Dan Qing spectrum, worried about Wan Mu Chun. The Prancing Horse is not my business, born to despise gold. Long read Tao Weng sentences, leisurely pleasant my heart. I have the Ambition of the North Mountain, and I stay to repay the favor. ”

A few short sentences, the interpretation summarizes their past, present, and future, the theme is clear, the thinking is agile, the rhyme and the servant, the waves are undulating, and the intestines are breathless, which is convincing.

Yang Xin's love for calligraphy and painting can be traced back to the young and ignorant junior high school years, when her biggest preference was literature and art, the jumping bands played by her classmates, skipping rope and other games, she would stay away, after class, she has read through many Chinese and foreign masterpieces, the deepest influence on her is "The Funeral of Muslims", the quiet, empty, holy, crisp bells, melodious singing, as if it is oil painting that grows in the heart, she always has the impulse to paint.

At that time, she was particularly fond of art classes, and each homework was selected by the teacher as a model model and praised in front of the whole class. The neighbor is her father's classmate, and the deputy mayor of the city, no matter how busy the work, the study of calligraphy is not moving, she worships him as a teacher, every day with a brush in hand, followed the study of the entire middle school period, benefited a lot.

Graduated from Harbin University of Science and Technology, Beijing Second Foreign Chinese graduate degree. By chance, Mr. Hou Yimin, a famous art painter, sorted out the stone carving museum, and was fortunate to come into contact with the traditional cultural essence of the Five Pagoda Temple and the White Stone Bridge, and gradually became obsessed with the ancient murals, sculptures and reliefs.

After that, she successively helped Mr. Hou publish anthologies, the study of oracle bones, stone bone scripts, a few years later, such copywriting work allowed her to learn many times about the ancient Chinese and modern art history system, more than 100,000 words of manuscripts, revised more than ten times, from ordinary wording to every punctuation mark, at that time it seemed to be a kind of torture, now think about it, work is learning, she unexpectedly gained such a precious and rich professional knowledge.

At Mr. Hou's home, she made an exception and became familiar with a large number of valuable cultural relics, celebrity authentic calligraphy and paintings, including bamboo from Zheng Banqiao, flowers, birds and grass insects from Qi Baishi, and Xu Beihong's galloping horses, some of which were more than a dozen, and she asked the teacher in surprise: "Is this a real handwriting?" "Of course it's the real thing." The teacher kindly told her: "Only Zheng Banqiao's bamboo leaves are painted so little, but the visual impact is so big, the quality is so good, you have to learn more." ”

If it is said that the rich nutrition of celebrity authentic works has influenced the quality of Yang Xin's painting art, then, in the later years of curatorial work of contemporary artists, Zeng Fanzhi, Li Jiekai, Feng Jincao, Yang Shaobin, etc., through the convenience of work, they and she have become good friends, injecting new and fresh wave of artistic blood into her works.

Yang Xin's works, starting from Western material ideas and techniques, integrate the ideas of traditional Chinese studies and the spirit of traditional literati painting. Song Huimin and Zhang Tong of the Heilongjiang Academy of Fine Arts, Zhang Yimin and Tang Mingyue of the Shandong Academy of Fine Arts all had a profound influence on her, and the study of the Chinese Painting Creation Advanced Study Class, the tutors of the Tsinghua Academy of Fine Arts, Jia Pingxi and Yan Quan, made her get rid of the restraint and craftsmanship, she liked to follow the thick and ethereal spirit of Xu Chengyu's landscape, and she was keen on the power of Ouyang Zhongshi calligraphy. Academic qualifications, experience, so many mentors and friends, once again fueled her artistic achievements.

Yang Xin is not superstitious and abides by the ancient law, pays attention to his own creation and personality, and draws creative materials from life. She said: "Zheng Banqiao once said: Fan Wu paints bamboo, has no teacher, and more than the paper window powder wall sun and moon shadow in the ear. Jin Nong also said: Mr. Dongxin began to paint bamboo at the age of more than sixty years old, the former Xian bamboo sect, I don't know someone, the house is planted and repaired about ten million, Mr. is a teacher. "She is willing to go to nature to absorb inspiration, preferring to paint quietly.

Choose layered and layered, brightly colored pictures, highlight the luster and subtle changes, so that their works into the modern society aesthetic popular needs, its painting ideas will always surpass painting techniques, this is the modern knowledge of female painter Yang Xin's perception of painting, she said: "Every painter is eager to achieve fame, but they all leave the throbbing of the heart, lack of continuous innovation, no rich experience, even if they are busy, they will not get the wings to the artistic paradise." ”

Know the law, familiarize it. Yang Xin is intelligent and hardworking; emotionally rich, moving with his heart, swinging his gun on a Prancing Horse, and heading straight for the target. Soon, Yang Xin's harvest season was just around the corner
