Wu Changshuo has a deep foundation in calligraphy, so he can use calligraphy in painting. He once said to himself: “Cursive calligraphy is the grape, and the pen moves the dragon”, and also said: “When you touch the stone drum and the front brush, the play is a portrait of Youlan.” This picture is his masterpiece of freehand brushwork. Its free and easy brushwork, which is pictorial but not pictorial, shows the aesthetic interest of the air penetration in calligraphy, and also vividly shows the vitality of wisteria bathing in spring light.
