Study On Gong Xian’s Ink-accumulating Painting Method

Gong Xian is the representative figure of the later period of traditional literati painting.He inherited the tradition and developed and innovated,forming his own unique form of pen and ink.At present,many people have studied Gong Xian,but there are few studies on the core of "pen and ink".Everyone is accustomed to call "ink accumulation" Gong Xian’s painting style,which is the style,but also the process of forming style.Although the method of accumulating ink was not invented by Gong Xian,he applied it to the height of pure fire.This paper takes Gong Xian’s ink-accumulating method as the core of the study,and combines his landscape paintings to analyze.Through the analysis and study of Gong Xian’s ink-accumulating technique,we can deepen the study and understanding of the ink-accumulating technique,thus combining these theories with creation.In Gong Xian’s landscape paintings,there are many centers in his brushwork,requiring roundness and mellowness of the brush,and the method of rubbing is mostly point rubbing and line rubbing.Gong Xian’s line runner is actually a method of changing Michelle’s cross-point ink accumulation.The short-pen runner turns the point into a line,but it is the same as the ink point.It broadens and shortens the line and enlarges its contact surface with the paper surface.In fact,this method is different from his own early method and traditional method.The contact surface between brush and paper is enlarged to one side.After a stroke,the effect of the brush and ink is rich.The short and broad center uses the brush and light,which is densely added to the stone surface.The center dots with orderly rhythm are scattered in the picture,and the rhythm is bright.Gong Xian achieved the layers of ink in the picture,creating a warm and natural,thick and gloomy picture effect,giving a natural feeling,the final picture presented by the ink effect has a strong sense.Gong Xian’s method of accumulating ink is to dry first,then wet,then dye,layer by layer.Gong Xian’s pursuit of Mohism is not "wet" but "wet".In Gong Xian’s opinion,"wet" and "wet" are essentially different,because "wet ink is fresh,wet ink is dead"."The method of accumulating ink" runs through his life,especially in his later years.Gong Xian’s ink-accumulating methodoriginated from tradition and had its own style.It became a major style of his landscape painting,which had a great impact on Huang Binhong,Li Keran and others.
