Auxiliary tools for wood carving: mainly hammer, wood file, axe and saw. The purpose of the axe is to cut a large amount of wood with the help of paring. Pay attention not to use too much force when cutting. Do not cut straight up and down. The edge of the axe should be kept at about 45 degrees with the vertical wood grain, otherwise the wood will crack. Hainan GRC component wood file is mainly used in the fine blank stage of round carving, which can replace the flat knife to smooth the chisel marks for polishing; It can also take the place of round knife or oblique knife for hollowing. The function of the wood file is also that it can quickly adjust the modeling structure in a large area, and can be used in combination with the carving knife to make the turning and turning of the figure's clothing patterns vivid and smooth, with both virtual and real effects. The shape of hammers for wooden sculptures in Hainan is flat, flat, wide and square. The dimension of hammer face can be controlled at about 7 × 5.5 × 2.5 cm. Too narrow or too thick will affect the accuracy of the hammer's landing point and the uniformity of force. There are two kinds of hammers: wooden hammers and iron hammers. The wooden hammers generally use hardwoods with a large proportion of wood, such as mahogany, boxwood, sandalwood, beech and fruit trees. The specifications can be controlled at 27 cm in length, 55 cm in width and 45 cm in thickness; The grip is round and slightly flat, and the size is suitable for holding in the hand.
Sculpture refers to the ornamental and memorial objects that are carved to beautify the environment or for commemorative purposes, and have certain meanings, symbols or pictographs. Sculpture is a kind of plastic arts. It is also called sculpture, which is the general name of three creation methods: carving, carving and sculpture. It refers to the art of using various plastic materials (such as gypsum, resin, clay, etc.) or hard materials (such as wood, stone, metal, jade, agate, aluminum, glass fiber reinforced plastic, sandstone, copper, etc.) that can be carved or carved to create a visual and touchable artistic image with a certain space to reflect social life and express the artist's aesthetic feelings, emotions, and ideals. The lines can reduce the carved material through carving, while the plastic can achieve the purpose of artistic creation by adding plastic material.
The types of stone inscription monuments include monuments, memorial monuments, merit monuments, temple monuments, Dianzi monuments, mausoleum monuments, etc. Except for a few wordless steles, they are generally literal steles. Usually, characters are carved on the body of the stele, and some are accompanied by carved patterns. The pedestal and cover of the stele are mostly carved with decorations, birds, animals, flowers, and mascots. The cover of the stele of the imperial family is also carved with dragons and phoenixes. Marble is the most commonly used stone for making the stele, and sandstone and granite are also commonly used. Some of the steles are huge, and some of them become a group of steles. Stone books are written with stone instead of paper, and carved instead of pen, which is very ingenious. There are many famous works of stone tablet processing and stone calligraphy carving. For example, "Xi'an Forest of Steles" includes more than 3000 historical steles from Han Dynasty to Qing Dynasty. It is the largest collection of stone books in China. Together with the "Forest of Steles in Hanlin" under construction in Kaifeng, it can be said that it is a sea of steles, and it is a collection of calligraphies of regular script, line, grass, seal script, clerical script and Wei style by famous calligraphers of all ages. In addition to large-scale carvings such as stele books and cliff carvings, there are also some stone carvings, such as mourning volumes in imperial tombs and modern fine carved small stone books, such as more than 100 mourning volumes of white marble excavated in the tomb of the prince of the Tang Dynasty, and six stone books of "Thirty six Strategies" carved in tile slate in modern Chengdu, a total of 26 pages and 1278 words, bound into a volume with eyeliner, each page is 2.2.6mm, which can be read.
Microcarvings pay special attention to the selection of materials. The stone material should be absolutely pure, and there should be no sand grid or half silk cracks, because half a sand dot may damage a fine picture or more than 10 Chinese characters. secondly, high quality EPS exterior wall The micro carving knife is also a special thin knife, which should be sharp and sharp. It is necessary to have a particularly proficient knowledge of calligraphy and traditional Chinese painting. When carving, "meaning carving" and "meaning carving" can be carried out. Hold your breath and concentrate on your thoughts on the spot. The knife should be stable, accurate and ruthless. The micro carved knife is just a pen. The skill is not enough. Because the knife is slightly out of control, it doesn't reach its purpose. The calligraphy effect must be paid attention to when matching the micro engraving inscriptions on the micro sculpture works. The creators should avoid the ugly appearance, the skew of characters, the uneven lines, the inaccuracy of paintings, and the imbalance of matching. Should grasp the tool and ascend a height Price The artistic effect of line changes produced by customized stone. Only in this way can calligraphy and knife techniques and strokes be perfectly unified.
Sculpture art is a kind of plastic arts, also called sculpture, which is the general name of three creation methods of sculpture, carving and sculpture. It refers to the art of using various plastic materials (such as gypsum, resin, clay, etc.) or hard materials (such as wood, stone, metal, jade, agate, etc.) that can be carved or carved to create a visual and touchable artistic image with a certain space to reflect social life and express artists' aesthetic feelings, emotions, and ideals. It is diverse, so the law of development has different ups and downs. For example, the bronze ware manufacturing and decorative carving in the Yin and Zhou Dynasties in China were unmatched by future generations. The themes of the Han Dynasty's stone reliefs fully reflect the real life at that time. The sculptures in the Tang and Song dynasties certainly exceeded those in the Han Dynasty, but the works of the Tang and Song dynasties never fully reflected the reality as the Han Dynasty stone reliefs did. The handicraft industry and commerce in the Ming Dynasty were improved compared with those in the Tang and Song Dynasties, but few sculptures in the Ming Dynasty fully displayed the characteristics of each work as in the Song Dynasty. Although the sculpture of the Ming Dynasty is not as good as that of the Tang and Song Dynasties, other artistic achievements of the previous dynasties are naturally behind.
At present, most of the most influential sculptures in China and the West are made of copper. For example, Rodin's "The Thinker", "The Bronze Age", and "The Statue of Liberty", the world's top sculptures are mostly made of copper. The lines are suitable for sculpture because of the texture, plasticity, unlimited specifications, and rich color texture of copper, which are also jade sculptures The effect that wood carving and stone carving can't achieve is that jade carving can only make very small works because of the limitation of materials. Because of the limitation of wood carving technology, there is no precedent for large outdoor sculptures. The inheritor, whose bronze carving has opened a new chapter in the 5000 year history of copper.
