Bonsai pursues natural artistic beauty

As the main elements of landscaping, landscape, plants and architecture have become the primary consideration for the creation of natural beauty. The natural beauty of landscape is mainly realized from two aspects: natural form and natural structure. According to the vein trend of the natural mountains and rocks and the planning of the source flow of the water, the landscape is called the natural context of the landscape. In order to make the artificial rockery have the appreciation effect of the real mountain, when arranging the rockery, the selected rockery should follow the vein theory of the real mountain to create, so that the rockery and the real mountain are integrated. Similarly, in the bonsai creation, the stone used varies greatly according to the texture, vein, color and shape. First of all, according to the intention to choose stone, the same vein, similar color, similar texture of stone, according to material conditions. For example, the performance of towering mountains to choose towering stone; the performance of earth hills to choose undulating and rich, soft shape of stone. For the construction of waterscape, bonsai art creation and garden landscape creation pursue the same composition rule. The first thing is to find the source, that is, to hide the head and the tail, giving people the strange feeling of "not knowing the source". Secondly, to achieve the opening and closing together, winding, virtual and real combination, the shore high and low scattered layout of stones to form a free shoreline and rich landscape levels. For example, the bonsai placed in the Lion Forest takes the performance of the lion as the theme and selects stones with the same texture, color and the shape of a lion to create. Although the mountain is not high, the levels of the main peak and secondary peak are distinct, just like several lions lying on a plate, roaring up to the sky. The twists and turns of the rockery group add deep and mysterious interest to people, and the divided water surface opens and closes properly and is embellished with a small number of plants, highlighting the natural sense of bonsai works.

"Heavenly interest" is to deeply explore the artistic conception of natural mountains and forests, configure suitable plants, integrate the landscape with nature, and embody the characteristics of "Wan Zi Tian Kai". In the bonsai art creation, although the flowers and trees used for creation need to be trimmed and reshaped, they should also follow the principle of maintaining the state of natural growth. Bonsai techniques should erase the traces of artificial carving as far as possible and retain more of the wild interest of the natural scenery. Give people natural aesthetic enjoyment. In addition to forming the scenery, plants can also coordinate the center of gravity, enrich the level of the work, have both form and spirit, and strengthen the sense of "Wan from heaven" in the artistic conception of landscape.

Structures play the role of landscape appreciation and landscape construction in the garden. In the layout of structures, abandon the regular layout, but in accordance with the natural layout, the structures are randomly dotted in the natural landscape, so that the structure and the landscape set off each other. In addition, the garden structure also pays attention to the shape of many twists and turns, the structure of multi-change, the use of creativity to combine it with the hilly spring stone into an artificial landscape. When choosing the accessories of bonsai, it should be less and more refined, which is consistent with the environment and idea in texture, color and style, so as to make the bonsai works rich in content and deep in flavor, so as to achieve the artistic effect of "seeing the big in the small". When placing accessories, we should pay attention to the integration with the landscape, pay attention to the changes of density and dispersion, and create a rich spatial hierarchical relationship. In addition, the arrangement of accessories should be in line with the perspective law of large and small, near reality and far emptiness, medium and large, left and right, so that viewers can experience the beauty of the natural space of real mountains and real waters.
