What is the spirit of pen and ink in Chinese painting?

Chinese painting is freehand brushwork. The shape, spirit, meaning and rhyme of Chinese painting are all expressed by pen and ink, which is the sustenance of the artist's image. The pen and ink language of good works is integrated with freehand brushwork. Describing feelings with objects, emphasizing the brushwork of calligraphy, emphasizing the writing of lines, drawing inspiration from the pen, creating rhyme with ink, seeing the pen in the pen, and seeing the pen in the ink, the brushwork and Mo Yun's feelings complement each other, showing a unique aesthetic feeling and charm, which is the concrete embodiment of the concept of freehand brushwork in Chinese painting.

At the same time, pen and ink are the traces of the painter's soul, and they are the expression of self-cultivation, character, temperament and talent, that is, "the book is like a man, and the painting is like a man." Shi Tao once said, "Murphy's upbringing is ineffective, and his pen is fatal." Cultivation is the accumulation and cultivation of knowledge, and life is the communication and dialogue with nature. The comprehensive quality of a painter determines the character and height of his pen and ink. Pen and ink are the essence of Chinese painting and the display of artistic realm.

A good landscape painting is the painter's understanding of the natural landscape spirit. It is "the nature of a foreign teacher, the source of the heart", and the landscape in the chest written with pen and ink, whose charm and artistic conception are born with pen and ink, must be a refined Mo Miao with full charm and absolute beauty.
