the best advise i will give to anyone who wants
to learn and become a expert like me in chinese
works of arts. is to watch ton's of old kungfu
movies, it is the only way to learn the true history of chinese arts. what the experts of today only tell fake storys about the history
on how famous chinese arts artists are told today. china have fake about anything and fakeing
the true history of chinese works of arts are just one of the best they have 'faked'.
back in the old-days in china, never did anyone
became famous or great for there calligraphys or paintings. they were well known calligraphers, but mainly were used by rich kungfu masters to teach there son's how to write. because the only way to have a job in china back then is to pass a
government written test. and to pass the more chinese words a person can write, the better chance to have a job(government position). and what the experts of today tell the story about the famous monks painter of the past. if a monk is not in shaolin temple praying, then the only
way a monk is walking all around china. is because that monk got kick-out of temple, maybe for eating meat or sleeping with female. and a monk to survive the out-side world is to beg for food. and only monks who were good at drawing had
a better chance of survival(the wise-ones). less begging for food, the paintings of the landscapes they have seen by walking for many years around china, were a token for food. no such thing as artists seals were stamp on any of
their calligraphys or paintings. just like those
in kungfu movies. just watch ton's of old kungfu movies and become a grandmaster like me in chinese arts. no fakes there
