The great spirit mentioned in the works of Mencius, an ancient Chinese philosopher is hard to tell in words but can be fully reflected in landscape painting. So, how to embody the great spirit in mountain and river paintings? It depends on three factors: the good moral quality, learning and skills of a painter.It is rare to see a painter with the above three factors in the painting area, but Mr. Wang Shouhao is one of them. I wish that Wang Shouhao can use the pen of wisdom with the heart of a great master to draw the greatest soul of the Chinese nation.
孟子說:“吾養浩然之氣。”公子丑問:“何謂浩然之氣?”孟子答:“難言也,其為氣也,至大至剛,以直養而無害,則塞于天地之間。其為氣也,配義與道;無是,餒也。是集義所生者,非義襲而取之也”孟子的浩然之氣,難以用語言表達,但是,可以在山水畫中充分體現出來。換句話說,山水畫的根本目的就是要豎畫三寸,當萬人之巔,橫墨數尺,體百里之迥,在萬仞之間和百里之迥的縱橫之中體現一種浩然正氣。那么,如何才能在山水畫中體現這種浩然正氣呢!它取決于三個主要因素:畫家的人品、學養、技藝。畫家修其身,守其志,敬其業,行其徳,坦然大度、瀟灑從容、壯烈豪邁,人品既高,畫品自然高矣。當然,浩氣必須通過嫻熟的技法才能表現出來,反之,只有技藝而無學養、人品,終不過是一畫匠。
能集人品、學養、技藝于一身者,畫壇并不多見,首浩先生是其一。
觀其畫而知其言不虛。他的畫:中鋒勾勒,側鋒皴擦,離披分呈,粗細錯雜。粗壯之線,如屈鐵橫陳,雖千斤之力不能動搖;纖細之線,如游絲飄飛,靈動多姿,極具緊勁綿密之態。小、粗線雖粗而不浮,細線雖細而不弱,粗細相織,聚而密,密時不透一絲風,散而疏,疏而可越烈馬。疏密安排,雖率意卻具匠心。何處當疏,何處當密,全憑物象陰陽具向背之需要,決非臆造之跡。至于用墨,當濃則濃,當淡則淡,當干則干,當濕則濕。濃如傾盆驟雨,凝重厚實;淡如晚煙殘云,輕渺無跡;干則似驕陽照鏡,全無半點水分;濕則如霧籠水田,氤蘊華茲。筆與墨會,妙織萬象。凡樹木、方宇、山石皆古樸剛勁,慷慨崢嶸,磊落有君子之象,清正有俠士之風。
此首浩之技也,不足以驕人。
莊子說:“技近乎道”“唯道集虛”。首浩以實技入虛道,迥非時響,自有精妙。他自傳統立足,運宋人丘壑,師元人筆墨,獨辟溪徑,借山川為己代言,抒寫胸中之氣,托物象以述志,傳世間自然之道。觀其道,以寫中華民族“富貴不能淫,貧賤不能移,威武不能屈”之陽剛之氣為旨趣,以寫中華民族昂揚向上、寬厚弘博之精神為己任。故其畫,物象蒼渾而寄意遙遠,虛實相生而視野寬泛。此取之于景而抒于情,情景交融之作可品、可藏。
愿王首浩用意匠之心、智慧之筆,去寫中華民族最大的靈魂。
