章节摘录

　　Wus character was unrestrained, direct and indifferent to trivial matters,and it is known he always drank while painting. It is also said that when Wudrew the halo around Buddhas head in a mural, he only used his brusheswithout drafting the measurements first~ when he painted at LongxingTemples , the temple was always packed with observers. Wu moved his brushquickly, and most of his works were accomplished in a single session.Changan （present day Xian）, capital of the Tang Dynasty, was the culturalcenter of the time where many famous men of letters and artists lived. Wuhad many opportunities to stay with them, which helped improve hispainting skills.　　Wu mainly created religious murals all his life and his abundant works hada wide rang subjects. According to records, Wu painted over 300 muralsand more than 100 scrolls. While many of them involved Buddhism andTaoism, Wu also drew mountains, rivers, flowers and birds. The Presentationof Buddha is his most representative work. Unlike his predecessor Gu Kaizhi,whose line strokes were slender and forceful but lacked variety, Wus strokeswere full of change and vigor, expressing the internal world of his subjects.Wu Was always in　when he was painting, and his works exhibitan expressionist style.
