Wood Carving . 木雕

木雕匾牌的制做,是一门较为传统及算是古老的行业之一,据我所知,在新加坡从事木雕匾牌的制做的人亦不多。

(由本地已故大师潘寿先生题字,而很荣幸由我“抓刀”的一块匾牌)
我除了喜欢制作木雕匾牌之外,亦喜欢透过木雕表现书法与雕刻所结合出来的美感。
不同的木质,例如其硬度,纹路或原木段的形状等等,都可以启发我不同的灵感而进行各种创作的构思。

在这幅作品中,我尝试以浮雕的手法表现这幅书法的劲道,再把背景雕成树皮状来称托这种劲道,再以这种立体感来散发其中的震撼力量。(多年前的我).(翰林)

Chinese Calligraphy on Pottery. 陶瓷上的书法

书法的面貌, 有行书, 草书, 隶书, 大篆, 小篆, 魏碑等等, 一般上学生在练习书法时都写在纸上, 而作为书法爱好者, 我们亦常把书法写在布上, 宣纸上.我个人喜欢作多种尝试, 故除了把书法写在上述书写媒体外, 我亦喜欢写在木板或木制品上. 把书法写在陶瓷上, 结合釉色和图案说呈现出来的效果, 亦是我喜爱的创作方式之一.
带入釉上釉下的特色是我进行创作的方法之一,这种方法可以产生双重的效果,方法是,在入窑前把字写好, 颜色固定后,再加上另一层釉彩.

心经 . Calligraphy Artwork

心经,是我喜爱用于表现书法之美的其中一个方式之一.据我的研究,纵然佛教中有许多不同宗源及派别,但心经确是所有宗源及派别中皆必有的一个统一的经文;这是我喜欢心经的原因之一.
