心音（彩墨）
有一个前辈大画家画了一张山水画，题了几个字，大意是说：“画不出水声，不敢题句。”──是多么高格的自我要求啊。
也曾看过一位画者画了一个僧人伫立在河岸边，做侧耳倾听状，远山鞍部树林隐微之处露出一小扇庙宇的檐瓦，题句是“钟”，看了也令人会心。
咱们这幅画要题些什么呢？说坦白话，在构图之前并没有什么“意在笔先”，或先打一个“草稿”。──我是先用紫、蓝、黑色打上不同色块，然后随机处理。因此它并没有什么“画外”的言语，如果要勉强按一个题目，那就只好说是作者的“心音”了。
Heart’s Sound / ink and color painting
A famous painter of the older generation once painted a landscape painting in which he wrote down a few words. The basic meaning of his words was that because he failed to paint the sound of the water, he dared not to write down his thoughts. Such were the lofty demands that he imposed upon himself.
I also encountered a painter who painted a Buddhist monk standing by a riverbank, listening. The eaves and roof tiles of a small temple are visible in an inconspicuous spot amidst the forest of a saddle between distant mountains. The painting bore the character “Bell.” I felt a rush of inner recognition when I saw this.
So, what thoughts should I write down for this painting? To tell the truth, I didn’t plan ahead of time before I started the painting, nor had I made a draft. I just painted different patches of purple, blue, and black, and then went from there. Because the painting doesn’t carry any extra meaning, if I had to give it a topic I would call it my “heart’s sound.”@
