Knowledge of jungle bonsai modeling

The forest phase structure beauty and the color beauty of the four seasons of the tree community reflected by the jungle form are incomparable to other bonsai. It embodies the ecological mechanism of competition and cooperation among plants in the natural environment, which is a subtle portrayal of the way of life in nature.

In the field of bonsai art, how to create more and more beautiful living works of art that reflect the jungle landscape is the responsibility and task entrusted to us by the times.

The most important thing of jungle modeling is that it must fully reflect the typical forest facies promoted by the ecological environment. Instead of staying on the general concept of the jungle. For example, riverbank coastal jungle, stream valley jungle, mountain highland jungle, sand dune plain jungle, deep mountain primeval jungle, village outskirts Longshang jungle, swamp depression jungle, distant mountain snow jungle, and so on, their charm and atmosphere are different. The modeling should express the beauty of artistic conception from the background. In addition, there are dense forests, sparse forests, young forests, old forests, autumn forests, and cold forests, which reflect different images from different angles of quantity, tree age and seasonal phase. These scenery are worth pondering and drawing lessons from in the modelling.

The main features that can not be ignored in jungle modeling are as follows:

If the two plants are planted together, their trunk must be upright, and their canopy must be high and low. The positive and the high are positive. If there is a small tree interspersed and attached to the left and right, it is a lining tree. This is not only the basic principle of co-planting, but also the unit and starting point of jungle modeling. The multiplication and expansion of co-planting is the forest type. Therefore, the layout of the jungle shape should well deduce the principle of the main, deputy and lining three horns to form a potential, and change freely, so as to organize more units to melt into the opening and closing of the whole picture.

Jungle modeling is the art of weaving branches and branches with dense lines. If you want to be sparse, you can walk the horse and connect with each other. In order to make the plant close to each other, one side of the main root can be removed to make the two trees grow side by side. It can also cut low stem and store more branches to strengthen the density of local forest. Jungle modeling is also the art of dividing the blank, showing the "bright spot" in the shade and reading the language in the blank. When an artist talked about the technique of drawing orchid dots, he said: "not only should we point out the texture, but also the advantage lies in the gap between the dots and lines." this also has inspiration for the shape of the jungle. If you can weave the contrast of the virtual world and the real world from the top to the inside, there will be aura.

The wave potential of the treetop and the ground mound, inlaid stone, old root, moss fine grass, Jianquan and so on form the slope layer, which is the two ups and downs that must be paid attention to in the jungle modeling. There are commanding highs, troughs and sub-highs, and the transition between each other should have a sense of flow. Finally, let the two lines interweave and disappear on the edge of the jungle.

The bonsai form, which can maximize the harmonious beauty of tree community symbiosis and symbiosis, is indeed not too jungle-like. This kind of beauty is expressed uniformly through the competition and concession for the living space of each plant: for example, the middle wall of the dense forest is extremely high, the outer edge must be inclined and comfortable, and there must be a retreat adjustment between each layer, and this kind of interest is natural beauty.

There should be an artistic conception of "living and swimming" in the forest, and there seems to be a "desolate path" to increase its depth.
