Micro carving is a kind of carving technique that is good at small and fine. Chinese micro sculpture has a long history. Miniature carvings appeared in oracle bone inscriptions as far back as the Shang Dynasty. During the Warring States Period, the seal was as small as millet, but the seal was divided into white and black. Wang Shuyuan's Nuclear Boat Story, which is widely known, is also a classic work of micro sculpture in Chinese history. The art of seal cutting is the basis for the emergence and development of micro carving art. Since the Ming and Qing Dynasties, many literati and scholars have used iron pen to write and paint in the seal, to express their interest and entertain themselves. After Shoushan Stone became the seal material, the micro carving art of Shoushan Stone began to appear. At the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, Yang Xuan and Diaobin both carved small characters in the remote patterns of Shoushan stone carvings. Lin Qingqing, a master of "Ximen Boyi School" carving, also often wrote his name and date of production in the grass and stone crevices of the carved works with extremely fine pen. Later, some people carved ancient poems with extremely fine characters on the four sides of the square pillars of the seal as margin. In the 1960s, with the application of advanced scientific instruments such as magnifiers in the field of micro sculpture, micro sculpture art became a new and unique art. The words carved in the works are smaller and smaller, and the content is more and more. Microcarvings pay special attention to the selection of materials. The texture of the Hainan EPS component stone is required to be absolutely pure, and there should be no sand grid and half silk cracks, because half of the sand dot may be engraved with more than 10 Chinese characters. Secondly, the micro carving knife is also a special thin knife, which should be sharp and sharp. Third, it is necessary to have a particularly proficient knowledge of calligraphy and traditional Chinese painting. When carving, you can carry out "free engraving". Fourth, hold your breath and concentrate on your thoughts on the spot. Fifth, the knife should be handled steadily, accurately and ruthlessly. Only in this way can calligraphy and knife technique be perfectly unified. The art of micro sculpture is "art in micro". The more subtle it is, the more refined its kungfu is, and the higher its value is. Microcarving is also an art that pays great attention to the picture and organization, which is "intended to be refined". The sculptor of micro sculpture should first have a deep knowledge of calligraphy and painting. Although the micro sculpture is too small to be recognized with the naked eye, it is still very exquisite under the magnifying glass, such as large calligraphy works.
Artificial landscape rockery is a kind of mountain built with soil, stone and other materials for the purpose of landscaping in gardens. The rockery has various landscaping functions, such as forming the main landscape or terrain skeleton of the garden, dividing and organizing the garden space, arranging the courtyard, revetment, slope protection, retaining soil, and setting natural flower beds. It can also be combined with garden buildings, garden roads, sites and garden plants to form a scene full of changes, so as to reduce the artificial atmosphere, add natural interest, and integrate garden buildings into the landscape environment. Therefore, rockery has become one of the characteristics of Chinese natural landscape garden. The natural landscape is the artistic source and basis of rockery creation. Although the real mountain is good, it is rare to visit it often. The front rockery is arranged near the house. As a work of art, it is more general and refined than the real mountain. It can embody people's thoughts and feelings, and make it have the charm of "mountains are beautiful, rocks are beautiful". Artificial rockery must also try not to reveal artificial traces, making it difficult to distinguish the true from the false. The rockery, which comes down in one continuous line with the traditional Chinese landscape painting, is important because it seems true but not true. Although it is false, it is still true, which is thought-provoking.

When shaping the image, one must also take into account that people watch it from different angles. Relief, also known as "relief", is to carve a convex artistic image on the plane. Sculpture Design customized According to the different degrees of surface relief, relief can be divided into high relief (high and low relief, deep relief) and low relief (low and low relief, shallow relief). The openwork is between the round sculpture and the relief sculpture. On the basis of the relief sculpture, it is made by hollowing out the background, but it does not leave the plane, just like a round sculpture attached to the plane background.
