Tang Xiaoyan's works allow one to appreciate the unique emotional depth of the women she portrays; upon careful reading, one can also savor her tranquil, unadorned, and humble spirit. This is precisely the effect achieved by a calligrapher who fully expresses their emotions and cultivation through the brush. Viewing her calligraphy evokes a profound sense of solemnity and elegance. Her brushwork is sharp, each character meticulously crafted. Upon close observation, every stroke and structure in her works flows effortlessly, brimming with variation and rhythm. Her strokes and character structures draw inspiration from the emergence of regular script during the Wei, Jin, and Southern and Northern Dynasties, while also incorporating elements of running script. Although her entire composition is serene and clear, it pulses with a vigorous rhythmic energy that moves the viewer’s soul in harmony with its dynamic flow, achieving a deep resonance with the calligrapher’s inner emotion.
