The development of a personal style in Running Script (行书) is not a static process, but an ongoing journey of refinement, growth, and self-discovery that evolves over time. The unique voice of the artist will often change and evolve as they continue to develop their technical skills and their understanding of their own internal emotional landscape. The act of creation is also an act of constant growth. As calligraphers gain experience and hone their techniques, their style often becomes more refined, personalized, and unique, reflecting their own distinct artistic sensibility. The style that develops is often a reflection of their experience and their own journey through life. The style will become a reflection of the artist's personality. The calligrapher’s style will also be influenced by changes in their emotional state, life experiences, and artistic influences, creating a dynamic quality that is in a constant state of evolution and change. The act of creation can be a form of emotional processing, and this will reflect in the work that is created over time. The artistic work should come to reflect the inner landscape of the artist. The evolution of a calligrapher’s personal style is not just about acquiring more technical skill, but also about achieving a deeper understanding of oneself and one’s relationship with the art form, a journey that never truly ends. The constant process of refinement and growth is a continuous process that is central to the artistic process. Ultimately, the evolution of style in Running Script is a reflection of the artist's own internal landscape, and a testament to their enduring dedication to the art form, creating a unique and personal artistic signature. The uniqueness of each artist’s style is what makes the art form so varied and interesting. Each artist develops their own voice and their own unique interpretation of the core principles. |
