特刊 | 这是画家近期看见的一幅方增先先生（左三）晚年在家待客的照片。

方先生曾说到他自己的成名的原因，无非是“历史要寻找这样一个人”，因为“江浙这一带，是水墨人物画的‘窝点’，必然会产生我这个类型的画。”

他反复强调：“我画了一辈子中国画，感觉中国画的最基础的东西，必须遵循中国的传统艺术法则。西方的艺术绘画，可以作为一种参照来吸收，这样你在画当中怎么变它都不会离开它根本的东西。”

方先生总是念及潘天寿先生经常讲的，“用笔必须搞好，中国画没有用笔就没有意义了。”

Special issue | This is a picture of Mr. Fang Zengxian (third from left) staying at home in his later years that the painter recently saw.

Mr. Fang once said that the reason for his own fame is that "history is looking for such a person", because "this area of Jiangsu and Zhejiang is the 'den' of ink figure painting, which is bound to produce my type of painting."

He repeatedly stressed: "I have painted Chinese painting all my life, and I feel that the most basic things of Chinese painting must follow the laws of traditional Chinese art." Western art painting can be absorbed as a kind of reference, so that no matter how you change it in the painting, it will not leave its basic thing. "

Mr. Fang always mentioned what Mr. Pan Tianshou often said, "the use of a pen must be done well. there is no meaning in Chinese painting without a pen."

方增先先生离世了，中国水墨人物画的巨大损失。上个世纪初”徐蒋体系”是人物画的主流，特点是写实素描造型加传统笔墨，方先生大量运用写意花鸟笔墨，使他的作品在同龄人中凸显出优势，年轻时即创作了很多经典作品，晚年又涉足小品文人画，对我们年轻一代影响巨大 https://t.cn/z8LhMY6
