月滿蘭亭 Moon over the Pavilion






玩得認真, 書法關心

褚遂良, 孫過庭-----唐朝書法家


923日有雙重意義首次嘗試在Coopers Plains圖書館新地方上課; 兼舉行秋節聯歡會.
當日, 大家12:30到達圖書館, 都給它紅灰色新穎的外型吸引, 入口處有寬敞陽台供人或閱讀, 或上網, 或坐享鳥語花香. 轉入會議室, 開陽的落地玻璃看通窗外茂林藍天, 身處室內猶如置身大自然.

大家把佳饌一一拿出來, 轉瞬間把長枱放滿. 真兄饑不及待「開動」筷子, 大家也不甘後人了.


飽餐一頓, 閒聊後, 大家玩破冰的Bingo遊戲, 好使新舊同學互相認識寶號.

 第二個活動配對遊戲. 要把書法家, 所屬時() 代及他們的著名書帖找出.  大家兵分三路, 各組組員都很認真找尋答案, 還上網Google一番, 絕非估吓估吓咁簡單. 其認真態度真是「魅力沒法擋」!


好戲在後頭.

FreidaNathan與大家分享選帖心得, 精要如下:
(謝謝燕芳提供)
主要是說九個字:依性情,擇善本,守一帖
依性情:根據個人的喜好,選擇歐,顔,柳或趙。集中説楷書而已。

擇善本:原拓本難求,現在大部分都是影印本。但也要挑好的出版社。還有是跟原拓本一樣最好。

守一帖:不能朝三暮四,寫數月就轉另外一種字體,非要放三五年,不罷休。最理想是入帖後,然後出帖。

當天介紹的日本出版社是二玄社,而不是二杜社。現更正。


斜陽開始透入窗簾, 大家收拾狼藉杯盤, 紙章筆墨, 隨落日歸去.


On the 23 September, we held our calligraphy meeting in Coopers Plains Library. We arrived an hour earlier to celebrate the Moon Festival with lots of good food.


Besides enjoying the dishes contributed by our members, we broke the ice by playing Names Bingo. Then we mix-and-match the calligraphers with the periods they belonged to and their famous scripts. It’s a good chance to know more about calligraphers and their works.


Then Freida and Nathan shared their experience of choosing the right script for individuals.



As the sun went down, we separated with a fruitful heart.

蘭亭雅趣 TOP Chinese Calligraphy Exhibition2015









「歲在乙未, 隆冬之末, 蘭亭雅士会於澳邦布市書館, 交流書藝也. 喜羣秀雲集, 雖無茂林修竹, 清流激湍, 仍懷興思飛, 相儒以沬, 忘於江湖.  文士或相互切磋, 或評品書文, 或即席揮毫, 莫不議論侃侃, 擊節稱賞, 相扶互勉 .  繼共品美點, 濃茶一口, 而不知日之西落.





在一片熱鬧聲中, 「蘭亭雅聚」首次作品展, 順利展开序幕. 三十七幅書畫, 洋洋灑灑的展列在Sunnybank Hills圖書館內. 本來擔心不夠展品, 在同學的暗暗努力下, 竟掛滿圖書館的牆壁!


此外, 令人感動興奮, 是同學們有默契地分工合作, 有幫助作品還未裝裱的同學;  有幫助掛上作品的, 特別是梁義松大兄, 紮馬鐵梯, 一一為大家的作品高高掛上, 好驚險!   還有燕芳, 玉颜指揮作品放置以達视覺之娛. 新同學們有些雖未有展品, 有仍在喧鬧中靜靜習字, 學習之心令人敬佩.



最難得莫過於何定鋼師兄攜同無錫陸天言老師, 陳先生來指導.  陸老師即席揮毫, 教導大家書寫要点;  還觀看同學作品, 給予意見, 好讓同學們日後改善.


「蘭亭雅聚」自去年十一月成立, 短短九個月, 竟然有如此浩浩蕩蕩的展出, 不能不驚嘆同學們對書法鑽研的毅力與堅持

還有多謝余文賢老師默默指導, 提供各式書帖給同學參考臨摹.



希望將來定期展出同學作品, 作為鼓勵同學的創作及提升水平. 也期待書法老師們繼續給我們指導與批評. 大家在書寫與美食茶聚中, 享受書法的樂趣.



5 August 2015d has been a terrific day for TOP ---the first exhibition of members’ artwork in Sunnybank Hills Library. It is awesome that everyone is cooperating to make it a success. 


The huge number of exhibits is a surprise to everyone. There are a toatl of 37 pieces of artwork, including calligraphy and painting. In fact, at the beginning we worried there's not enough exhibits to fill the display wall of the library.



The stunting display of TOP members attributes to the hard work of every member . We would continue to share our passion for the art of calligraphy and treasure the friendship we made in the process.


We thank the calligraphy teachers who have helped to make it a success.
