""Happiness is appropriate for harmony, anger is rough for danger, and sadness is depressed for convergence. " Different mental states will affect people in different ways, and the written words and paintings are different.
Careful consideration and careful production often make the painter spend a lot of energy and bring slight fatigue. In fact, when people's physical or mental fatigue is light, the body happens to be in the most active state.
Calligraphy and painting is a dynamic and static process. "When you sit up and write a book, your limbs are strong, but the greater your strength, the lighter your pen cover." It's like playing a set of Tai Ji Chuan that combines rigidity with softness and is moderately elastic, so that people can stretch their bodies, relax their muscles and promote blood circulation.
