Four Screens of White Stone and Shrimps | Ink Traces, Floating Shadows, and Clear Observation Zen
This painting embodies the essence of Huang Weng's "Five Ink Methods." The shrimp's whiskers are as delicate and vigorous as the silk threads of seal script, flowing through the paper with rhythmic flow. The subtle water marks inherit the elegant charm of Qingteng and Baiyang, while creating a unique and naive spirit. The rice paper has been subjected to the ancient method of nine sharpening and nine dyeing, and the pale ochre hue alludes to the profound principle of "seemingly leaping but not leaping" in Baishi's "Secrets of Grass and Insects." The meticulous reproduction reaches the "Grass and Insect Hall Level," with each stroke tempered by the aesthetics of aquatic life. Compared to conventional flower and bird reproductions, this painting demonstrates a vibrant and dynamic Xiangxun style. This is more than just a realistic reproduction of a scaly and shellfish subject; it is a connoisseur-level paper Zen that blends the skill of a metalwork and stone carving with the eye of a child. It is a rare contemporary work of life-like philosophical poetry embodying the aesthetic system of "Ink Shrimp Atlas."
