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 must 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.
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.
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 Sculpture processing 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 Changchun 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.
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.
Relief is a kind of sculpture. The sculptor carves the image he wants to shape on a flat plate, making it separate from the plane of the original material. Relief is the product of the combination of sculpture and painting. It deals with objects in a compressed way, and displays three-dimensional space by perspective and other factors. It is only for one side or two sides to see. The reliefs are usually attached to another plane, so they are used more in architecture and can be seen on utensils and implements. Due to its compression characteristics, it occupies less space, so it is suitable for decoration in a variety of environments. In recent years, it has played an increasingly important role in urban beautification. The relief is as rich and colorful as the round sculpture in content, form and material. The materials of relief include stone, wood, ivory and metal. The relief is a semi vertical sculpture whose image shape protrudes from the stone surface (as opposed to the relief). According to the different depth of stone removal in image modeling, it can be divided into low relief and high relief. The bas reliefs are single level statues with relatively simple contents; The high relief is a multi-level statue with complicated contents. The carving technique and expression style of relief are basically the same as those of round sculpture. Many ancient and modern large-scale memorial buildings, high-end mansions and private houses are equipped with such decorations. Their main works are wall blocks, flower windows, dragon columns (early) and column bases.
