文桑度云

在熱浪迭起的五月，中國輕工業(yè)聯(lián)合會、中國輕工業(yè)珠寶首飾中心、中國工藝美術(shù)學(xué)會聯(lián)合主辦的中國工藝美術(shù)“百花獎”在福建莆田落下帷幕。在諸多的各類工藝品中，李慧婷的內(nèi)畫作品《魚樂圖》在全國數(shù)百件參賽作品中脫穎而出，獲得中國工藝美術(shù)“百花獎”金獎。

內(nèi)畫，追溯其淵源，要從鼻煙開始說起，鼻煙是在明朝萬歷年間由意大利傳教士利馬竇以貢品名義傳入中國。光緒年間，博山民間藝人畢榮久輾轉(zhuǎn)得其技法。由于制作獨特，畫工精致、妙趣橫生，受到了清朝慈禧太后的賞識，被列為宮廷用品刪去。上世紀(jì)80年代初，博山內(nèi)畫參加了第一屆中國工藝美術(shù)“百花獎”的評選，集體獲得了最具影響力的“百花獎”?？墒呛髞恚髽I(yè)衰敗后，內(nèi)畫組的老師和徒弟們?nèi)缤⒙涞恼渲?，在不同的角落依舊是光芒四射。直到2006年，中國工藝美術(shù)大師張廣慶被推選為刪去中國工藝美術(shù)學(xué)會鼻煙壺專業(yè)委員會會長以后，多年散落的珍珠又聯(lián)在了一起。同時，也匯集了全國內(nèi)畫界的四大流派，讓內(nèi)畫藝術(shù)大放異彩！2013年5月魯派內(nèi)畫被申報為山東省非物質(zhì)文化遺產(chǎn)。

李慧婷自幼受藝術(shù)家庭的影響與熏陶，酷愛美術(shù)，童年時拜巨匠齊白石門下，師從齊白石弟子宋保臣先生學(xué)習(xí)書畫。1981年考入青島工藝美術(shù)學(xué)校，1985年畢業(yè)，師從國家級非物質(zhì)文化遺產(chǎn)魯派內(nèi)畫傳承人、國家一級美術(shù)師、首席中國內(nèi)畫藝術(shù)大師，首屆玻璃藝術(shù)大師張廣忠先生學(xué)習(xí)內(nèi)畫藝術(shù)，攻山水、花鳥、魚蟲。紫藤、荷花乃之最愛，以兩者為素材，抒發(fā)和表達(dá)作者的內(nèi)心情感世界。

30多年來，李慧婷致力于內(nèi)畫藝術(shù)研究與創(chuàng)作，形成了自己獨特的藝術(shù)風(fēng)格，作品畫風(fēng)高雅，構(gòu)圖嚴(yán)謹(jǐn)，色調(diào)統(tǒng)一，雅俗共賞，稱之為魯派內(nèi)畫代表人物之一，在內(nèi)畫屆具有廣泛的影響力，其作品深受國內(nèi)外收藏家的喜愛。多次參加國內(nèi)外工藝美術(shù)及內(nèi)畫藝術(shù)精品展，并榮獲諸多獎項。數(shù)百件內(nèi)畫作品分別被編入《中國內(nèi)畫圖典》《中國內(nèi)畫藝術(shù)大師作品集》《英國珍寶博物館精品典藏》《慶祝中華人民共和國成立65周年紀(jì)念郵冊》等出版物中。其作品被英國珍寶博物館、美國加州文化藝術(shù)中心收藏。

2010年，在李慧婷的牽頭下，由曲克濤、翁美琴、劉輝、黃得利組建了“袖藝坊”工作室，在此，一邊展示銷售著作品，一邊帶著學(xué)生，探討傳承著內(nèi)畫藝術(shù)。目前，“袖藝坊”是魯派內(nèi)畫隊伍中獲獎最多、最具實力、最有人氣的一支團(tuán)隊。

現(xiàn)在，李慧婷已是中國內(nèi)畫藝術(shù)大師，走在了同齡人的前列。但她不以物喜，不以己悲，成功與失敗在她眼里，不過是平常的事情而已。她把自己一生的藝術(shù)追求作了一個難能可貴的定向，始終不渝地朝著這個方向進(jìn)取。

To trace the origin of inner painting, we shall start with snuff.The snuff bottle was introduced to China by an Italian missionary named Matteo Ricci as a form of tribute during the Wanli Period of the Ming Dynasty. During the reign of Guangxu, Bi Rongjiu, a folk artisan of Boshan, mastered its techniques. Due to unique manufacturing, exquisite brushwork, witty connotations, the snuff bottle was appreciated by Empress Dowager Cixi of the Qing Dynasty, and listed as one of the imperial supplies. In the early 1980s,the inner painting works of Boshan participated in the selection of the First “Baihua Awards” of Chinese Arts and Crafts, and collectively won the Most Influential “Baihua Award”.However, after the enterprise declined,the teachers and apprentices of the inner painting team, like scattered pearls, still radiated brilliance in different corners. In 2006 after Zhang Guangqing, master of Chinese arts &crafts, was elected as the Chairman of the Specialized Committee for Snuff Bottles of the China National Arts and Crafts Society, these pearls that had been scattered for long were linked together again. In the meantime, four schools of inner painting gathered,and enabled inner painting arts to yield unusually brilliant results!In May 2013, the Lu-School Inner Painting was declared as an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Shandong Province.

Influenced and edified by an artistic family since childhood, Li Huiting is very fond of fi ne arts. When she was young, she learned calligraphy and painting from Mr. Song Baochen, a student of Qi Baishi. She was admitted to Qingdao Craftwork Art School in 1981, and graduated in 1985. In that period, she learned inner painting arts from Mr. Zhang Guangzhong, inheritor of Lu-School Inner Painting — National Intangible Cultural Heritage, National First-Level Artist, Chief Inner Painting Artist of China and First Glass Artist —and focused on landscape, flowers &birds, as well as fi sh & insects. Wistaria and lotuses are her favorites. She usually selects the two as themes to express her inner emotional world.

Over thirty years, Li Huiting has been committed to the research and creation of inner painting arts, and formed her unique artistic style.With works characterized by elegant painting style, rigorous composition,color harmonization as well as a combination of refined and popular tastes, she is known as one of the representative personages of Lu-School Inner Painting, and has wide inf l uence in the inner painting circles.Her works enjoy popularity among both domestic and overseas collectors.In addition, she attended the arts &crafts and selected inner painting artwork exhibitions at home and abroad more than once, and won a number of awards. Hundreds of her inner painting works are respectively incorporated in such publications as Chinese Inside Painting of the Modern Age, Collection of Works of Chinese Inner Painting Artists, Fine Works Collected by UK Museum of Treasures and Stamp Album for Celebration of the 65th Anniversary of the Founding of the People's Republic of China.Her works have been collected by UK Museum of Treasures and California Culture and Art Center.

In 2010, led by Huiting, Qu Ketao,Weng Meiqin, Liu Hui and Huang Deli established “Xiuyifang” Studio, where they lead students to probe into the inner painting arts that have been passed down over generations while selling works. So far, “Xiuyifang” is the most-awarded, most powerful and most popular team among the Lu-School inner painting teams.

Now, Huiting has become a Chinese inner painting artist ahead of most of her peers. However, she is neither pleased by external gains, nor saddened by personal losses. In her eyes, success or failure is merely a common thing. She has developed an estimable orientation for her lifelong artistic pursuit, unswervingly moving towards her goals.
