Mr. Ling Haitao was obsessed with calligraphy and used Go as a metaphor for the method of learning calligraphy.

His book pages are sophisticated, concise and full of vitality. According to Liu Xizai's book theory of the Qing Dynasty, "Books are precious and enter the spirit, and the gods are different from mine to other gods. Those who enter other gods, I become the ancient; those who enter my spirit, the ancients."

"Become me" to observe Mr. Haitao's calligraphy. Transforming the ancient and bringing out the new is the best expression of his cultivation and temperament.

(Award Speech by the Jury of the 4th Chinese Calligraphy Franting Award) Ling Haitao - The self-confidence in his bones does not burst out like "sea waves", but is covered up by the "tradition" that resembles his smile.

Haitao's brushwork is three-dimensionally supported by an inexplicable force, highlighting tension and impact.

Therefore, with an art form supported by either academics or tradition, its connotation and space are enough to make people imagine and speculate.

(Wang Yazhou, Director of the Chinese Calligraphers Association, Vice Chairman of the Anhui Calligraphers Association) Ling Haitao combines inscriptions with inscriptions, shows off his clumsiness, is bold and unrestrained, is good at grasping the overall situation, is talented in spatial division and structural reorganization, and is knowledgeable and changeable.

Without losing the law, it gives people a strange beauty.

The creation of calligraphy pursues the mutual integration of the orthodox and the strange, and the elegance and agility of the charm.

His small cursive works are delicate and subtle, full of meaning, and his brushwork is particularly upright.

At the same time, it also boldly explores the styling, with the hope of learning from the past and creating something new.

The calligraphy has gradually shifted from the previous deliberate arrangement to the shaping according to the situation, which is more smooth.

(Recommendation for "Painting World" of Lu Yanshao Art Academy) Ling Haitao, who was born in 1979, attracted national attention because he won the Lanting Award.

He pays attention to speculation and self-reliance, pursues sincerity and vitality in his works, avoids falling into dullness and clichés, fully demonstrates his personality, education and thinking about life, and also shows his correct understanding of the essence of calligraphy.

Of course, his traditional skills are excellent and his formal aesthetics are also very good.

(Recommendation of the Beijing Ink Painting Charity Foundation) Whether you have a well-known teacher or a self-taught teacher, you can only follow the steps and look at the scenery from the mountainside. You can see further than the average person, but you can't see as well as those who stand on the top of the mountain.

More.

Only through innovation can we stand on the top of our own mountain.

(Sundao, Editor-in-Chief of "Zen Art Society") Haitao is a talented calligrapher. He has frequently appeared in professional exhibitions and competitions at a very young age, which is eye-catching.

Before learning calligraphy, Haitao had studied Chinese painting. Later, he was advised that "a blank piece of paper is easy to write on". In addition to his personal innate talent, he transferred directly from painting to calligraphy without making many detours.

A few years ago, I saw several of his pen sketches of landscapes. The lines were refined and elegant, strong and powerful, and had the quality of calligraphy.

A recent reading of his new calligraphy works shows that although there are many changes, they still retain the traditional brushwork and have the beauty of contemporary forms.

Traditional calligraphy attaches great importance to brushwork. Too much emphasis on "method" will inevitably inhibit the "artistic" value of calligraphy. Realizing the transition from "calligraphy" to "calligraphy art" and placing calligraphy within the scope of a larger art should be the direction of calligraphy in the future. This is also

This is exactly the value orientation of the "modern calligraphers" who share Haitao's interests.

They believe that graphic art should pay attention to visual beauty and aesthetic feelings.

We cannot just work hard and be satisfied with excellent clothes, but we must give full play to our personal talents and potential, absorb nutrients from relevant art categories sensitively and efficiently, with myself as the main subject and everything else as the guest, and constantly enrich it.

In their creation, they pay attention to the current feeling and pay attention to expressing their emotions.

In the end, I agreed with Shi Tao's old saying - respect and accept.

(Wang Hong, Editor-in-Chief of China Art Vision Network) Walking across the sea with open arms, plowing through the waves to test your feathers.

After three years of silence, I dreamed of Lanting.

The heart of the embroidered water is green, and the furnace of the smelting mountain is green.

Look up to the sky and see the stars shining in autumn.

(Zhang Benying, a member of the Chinese Poetry Society) ·There is no need to fight for the smelting of frost. Twenty years of hard work has made it possible.

The ink collects the traces of the heart to express the harmony of thoughts, and the calligraphy is clumsy and leads to Zen.

I often dream of cranes and wave my hand, and I only know the source of the clear water to wash my tassel.

There are no idle clouds outside the mountain, and the autumn colors cover up the name.

(Lin Baorong, member of the Chinese Poetry Society) ·My friend Ling Haitao, from Xiaoyao Baichuan Hall.

The wind and moon are outside the window, and the inkstone on the desk conveys a lot of meaning.

Sandan has always been light on wealth and elegance, filled with the fragrance of calligraphy and ink on sleeves.

Thirty years of hard work is just a joy, caressing the bell king in the morning and evening.

Broken stele and broken tablets, cocoon paper and Han and Tang Dynasties.

All the rivers return to the sea, and the waves are hidden behind the pen.

Looking for simplicity is far away, and the taste is vast.

Don't make vulgar words to please people's eyes, stand alone and think hard.

People in the world only love flowers and butterflies, and noble people in the mountains appreciate the autumn frost.

The color of chrysanthemum is old before frost, and the flavor of old chrysanthemum is cool.

The ink is dull and dull, and the spring flowers and autumn moon are ordinary.

You can't meet him at ordinary times, but you can see him occasionally.

When we meet close acquaintances, we find ourselves drunk, and we drink wine from the rivers and seas.

The bottles are full of poetry and wine, and the articles are written freely.

When I was drunk, I wrote ten feet long, dripping with joy and the ink was in the blue.

The dragon and snake move away under the pale wrist, and the phoenix dances gracefully on the paper.

The writing remains true and straightforward, showing softness and firmness at all times.

There is so much cleverness hidden in the clumsiness, and you can make jade jewels at your fingertips.

The orchid pavilion is romantic, and the winding water reflects the bamboo.

The clouds are quiet, the mountains are quiet, the sky and the earth are vast, and the spring breeze is always harmonious and glowing.

Haitao is the hand that binds the dragon, hanging the sail directly to Canglang.
