Because the pine tree has roots like a dragon's claw, a vigorous and simple, changeable stem, a stiff branch with antler crab claws, cadence, frost and proud snow, and a special tough needle different from other leaves, it is deeply favored by bonsai people and has become one of the leading species of bonsai, so there are more and more players. I have visited bonsai gardens such as Tangyuan in Xi'an, Suiyuan in Suzhou, and Mountain and thatched Cottage in Wuhan. There is no lack of looseness in every family. It is worth noting that all localities have explored and established unique local styles according to the historical and cultural origins and local characteristics of the region. For example, in Guangdong, the Han school year incorporated the concept of calligraphy wild grass into the shape of pine trees, such as Xuanliuhao, startling rock ancient vines and panning dragons, which is amazing; Anhui Fan is smooth, the pine construction method is profound, the art is subtle, Cheng Song is in the chest, and the shape and spirit are both fine. Zhejiang Wang Haiping, the selection of materials tall and straight, full of ancient spirit, its pine high stem throwing branches, potential such as feather arm drag knife, has the potential of majestic and difficult to commit, the work is otherworldly, full of loose flavor …...

In the land of Jing and Chu, people who love to build pines can be found everywhere. Jingchu is the confluence of the north and south, where various styles and schools collide with each other, and the stars are complicated. It is difficult for you and me to argue. Look at the Spring and Autumn period of the State of Chu, the magnificent 800 years, the bells of Chu songs, silk lacquer ware, broad and profound, and splendid monuments. Look at today's Jingchu, Greater Wuhan, the thoroughfare of nine provinces, luxuriant cities; Dajingzhou, the ancient city Huofeng, Jianghan Pearl. The splendor of history, the splendor of today, all kinds of art and every kind of art should be marked with the time beat of Jing and Chu and be marked with the civilization of Jing and Chu. Therefore, in the schools of pine tree style of Chinese bonsai, we cannot do without the unique style of Jing Chusong. Jing Chu's current love of pine makers cannot but regard this as their own duty, as one of them, put it into practice, and is duty-bound.

"there are Changsong, Wenzi, Zi, Nan, Yuzhang, but there is no long wood in the Song Dynasty, which is still beautiful and short brown." Mozi? Public loss), "people in the mountains are fragrant du Ruo, drink stone springs, shade pines and cypresses" (qu Yuan? Nine songs), the land of Jing and Chu, the pine forest is luxuriant since ancient times, the author was born and grew up in the mountains, I grew up in the mountains, came straight to the point, looked up to see the pine, got along with the mountain pine when I was little, accompanied with the green pine day and night, drank truffle in the morning, enjoyed the pine shadow at night, listened to the pine waves in the wind, and looked at the pine bones in the snow. There are Donglin and Nanshan, both of which are primitive green pine forests. by the side of the road in Pangu Village, which borders Yichang, there is a big pine tree embraced by five people. When I go home, I often see this magnificent pine and the spirit of King's Landing, which is shocking. Unfortunately, at the end of the last century, a restaurant was opened under the tree, which was destroyed by smoke and fire. "I have known pictures for a long time, and Yunshan is my teacher everywhere." Zhao Mengfu's "Canglin stacking Mountain Map"). The natural foundation of Jing Chusong's unique style is created by nature and nature, the treasure land of Jingshan where I was born and raised, and the unique pine resources are our creation.

In human history, painting has always developed with the development of society, and the development of the whole society promotes and determines the general trend of the development of painting, which is an objective law of the development of painting. In addition, painting has its own tradition and historical inheritance of his development, which is the own law of the development of painting "(Zhou Jiyin's" Theory of Chinese painting? " Inheritance "). Therefore, inheriting the cultural tradition of Jing Chu, based on the artistic aesthetic principles of Jing Chu tradition, absorbing the essence and making the past serve the present is the focus of our creation of Jing Chusong's unique style. Today, we study the origin of Jing-Chu culture and sum up many cultural characteristics, among which "pursuing the new and pursuing the strange", "eclectic" and "downtime flying" are the three important rules that we have to inherit today.

"witty and strange" ("Zhuangzi? The Theory of all things), "stunning and gorgeous" ("Wen Xin Diao long? This is the mainstream style of Chu art, one is new, the other is strange, unbelievably new, too strange to explain, which makes people marvel at it. In the process of bonsai modeling of pine trees for many years, the author constantly thinks and explores the laws of pine formation, and understands and applies these laws in a profound and simple way, and then obtains some experience: the roots of pine trees rely on selection, and branches and leaves depend on nurturance. Because the roots and stems are mostly born, they can only be selected by discerning eyes, and the branches and leaves are acquired, which should be cultivated by modeling rules and skills. The law of pine itself is that the branches will hang when they are old, and the top will be round when they are old. This natural law must be followed. Then there is the need to catch the root, and if you do it, you must take advantage of the situation. In the actual operation, first of all, the selection of piles, to be vigorous, changing, rhythmic, curved but not vulgar, straight but not stay, high but not dangerous, change is homeopathy, "Chu ci?" The "small waist and neck" mentioned in the big move reflects the curve beauty in the aesthetic appreciation of the Chu people into the modeling style, giving people a kind of dexterous and vivid visual effect.

On "eclecticism", Jingchu is easily influenced by the north and south because of its own position, which includes both artistic essence and vulgar dross. As mentioned earlier, the works of a group of pine bonsai creators in China have both ancient and strange style, ancient meaning and painting meaning, which can be used for reference by bonsai. Zong baihua, a master of modern aesthetics, pointed out: "Chinese painting takes line composition as the main form of expression, while Western painting takes lump structure as the main form of expression." There are only a few green clumps in the whole tree, which are folded and bloated, dull and clumsy, full of dry branches and fog, with no loose taste at all. Japanese pine is completely different from ours and does not conform to our aesthetic tradition. Moreover, although there are many shaped artistic styles in various parts of the country, they can not be copied completely due to the constraints of regional environment, local customs and cultural traditions. Our learning methods can only be in the form of sketches. Jing Chusong's magic weapon based on bonsai world is not in the form of photocopying, but to actively choose between them.

The framework is a very key link in styling, which is to assess the author's rules and artistic conception, which must be carefully mastered. "looking ahead makes the pioneer Xi, then the flying cheap makes the family run, and the emperor is the first warning. Thunder teacher told me that I didn't have it, and I made the Phoenix birds soar, followed by the sun and the moon." (qu Yuan's "Lisao"), the artistic conception of Chu people is wild, unrestrained, unruly, can "drive a flying dragon", "miscellaneous Yao elephant", "Yang Yun Ni", "Ming Yuluan", the creation of Jing Chusong must be concentrated. First of all, to deal with the sagging of the main branch, it must be vigorous and powerful, bright rhythm, high charm and strong sense of movement. Ascending branches such as antlers, drooping branches such as crab claws, cloth branches should be loose in the chest, different in length, thick and thin, dense and orderly, branches change, take care of each other, needles should be short, thin, tough, should reveal the branch skeleton, show the dynamic structure, through these structures, "the reality of the realistic form will be written and transferred to seeking the 'truth" of the object image spirit with spirit and ink. " (Luo Yiping's "creation and Heart Source"), then, the charm and vividness of Jingchu style is to express the spirit of Jingchu people with pine's healthy, proud and magnificent temperament.

"loosening is the easiest to work, but the hardest to morale." Ni Zan's "Yunlin painting spectrum", the "workmanship" in the article is craftsmanship, and "morale" refers to the spirit of the scholars at that time. "workmanship" and "morale" are two opposing sides. Here, the author deduces "morale" into three aesthetic theories of charm, vividness and rhythm. In my understanding, charm, vividness and rhythm are the assembly of trinity, they are interrelated and have their own emphasis, and spirit mainly focuses on the momentum of objects. Vividness mainly focuses on the spiritual level of the object, while rhythm focuses on the sudden change of things. During the abrupt change of scene, rhythm organically integrates the three, combining abstract potential and spirit into the most acceptable rhythm, thus turning it into a magical smart and emotional chip. if pine modeling can integrate charm, vividness and rhythm into one tree, as Su Shi commented on Wang Wei, then our style of Jing Chusong will reach the height of pure fire and perfect essence. This is the dream of Jing Chu pine that the maker of pine in Jingchu assiduously pursues. The author is searching up and down in this direction, looking for strange pines everywhere, and has built a "hundred pine garden". After more than a decade of efforts, the pine garden has become small, but the loose bone and the pine wind appear at first. Let's take a look at the "Chu Tian Pine Soul" in the hundred Pine Garden. "Jingchu Huofeng", "Jingchu Huofeng", "Jingshan Feiyun", "Jingshan Feiyun", "Jingchu Huofeng", "Jing There are also a number of pine bonsai with Jing Chu cultural characteristics as the background, such as "Chu Gorge misty Rain", "Jingge gorgeous Chu waist", "Dragon Boat Festival Race across Chujiang Mei", "Chutian Frost Dawn", "Fengzhiya", "Xi" and so on. Some express the enterprising spirit of the Jingchu people with their healthy, arrogant and magnificent temperament, some sing praises of the traditional culture of Jingchu, and some display the magnificent mountains and rivers of Jingchu. In 2017, the author participated in the sixth bonsai exhibition of Jingzhou famous city and won the first prize.
