"Picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence, leisurely seeing the southern mountains" is a famous line from the landscape poet Tao Yuanming. This line alone can make it be passed down through the ages. The leisurely and relaxed mood there makes countless people yearn for it. We love landscape painting because we love its ancient style and charm, and its quietness and elegance. In jade carving, there is such a "landscape poet" who can not only write but also paint, called jade landscape plaque. To put it simply, landscape jade pendants are landscape paintings placed on jade. Use jade as paper and knife as pen, each piece of paper conveys feelings and each stroke of the pen expresses your feelings. It is true that the world is vast within a small space. In silence, there is a great realm. Today, Mr. Jade will take you to experience the "literary youth" in jade carving - jade landscape pendants. Jade carving landscape plaques are the art of painting and carving, so painting and jade carving techniques are its foundation. Generally speaking, there are two ways. One is to use art in accordance with one's talents. This requires keen observation. Different jade plaques are suitable for different landscape paintings. The carver must accurately grasp the artistic conception carried by the jade plaque. The second way is to look for materials according to one's intention. The sculptor already has a painting direction, and he has to look for a jade plaque that matches it. Both of these test the sculptor's familiarity with jade and landscape scenes. The most important thing about jade-carved landscape plaques is the unity of form and spirit, and the combination of reality and illusion. Shape means modeling, which refers to the ability to shape or depict images, contours, layers, light and shade, perspective, etc. The depiction of objective objects must be accurate, such as changes in distance, height, reality, body, surface and lines, and combined with the basic characteristics of jade carving. Spirit refers to charm. Landscape paintings need to create an overall sense of beauty, which may be desolate, graceful, or sad, giving the viewer a unique feeling of being inspired by the mountains and feeling emotionally moved by the water. Jade is already intoxicatingly beautiful, and if you paint some plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum on it, it is truly irresistible. "The little lotus has just shown its pointed tip, and a dragonfly has already landed on it." Beautiful jade carves into new lotus, and careful thought reveals more meanings. Withered vines, old trees, crows, small bridge, flowing water, and people's homes. The fisherman sings in the evening, looking quite drunk. Grandparents and grandchildren are riding in a small boat, and a big fish is eating the fishing rod. The water lotus reveals its new look, and smoke rises from the houses. The Tianshan Mountains are as dangerous as a cliff, while the Lanting Pavilion stands majestically. The stream flows for thousands of miles, its depth is unknown. The jade-carved landscape plaque is the "landscape poet" among jades. Its greatest feature is: "The beauty is in it, it is full of connotations, it is intriguing, and the painting is full of meaning, so it may seem ordinary at first but eventually reveal a wonderful world." It emphasizes the ancient style and the feelings of the old times. Holding it in your hand, you can truly say: "The stone is emotionless, the mountains and rivers are like rain pavilions. The jade is silent, the monkeys are crying and the birds are singing." fcgc66 fcpf18 |
