Since ancient times, mounting technology has been in a conservative state, mainly passed down from generation to generation. If a foreigner wants to engage in this profession, he must be an apprentice for several years before he can start his career, either independently or independently. With the development of mounting industry and the wide spread of mounting technology by various media, the stereotype of "learning from teachers" has been gradually broken. People can learn mounting technology by working in mounting professional units, or attending mounting training courses, or participating in internships, or by self-study according to professional reference books and videos. No matter how to learn mounting, beginners often find it relatively simple at first, understand it at a glance, and learn it once, which is not as difficult as expected. This is an illusion caused by the lack of in-depth understanding of this traditional process. The author's understanding of learning mounting is: you can understand it at a glance, and you can learn it once. It is difficult, and the more difficult it is, the more difficult it is. Therefore, in the process of learning mounting, we need to make up our minds, exert ourselves, be willing to use our brains, be good at summing up, be bold and meticulous, and be meticulous in order to achieve the expected results. Beginners should pay attention to: the first step is to understand the professional terms and sequence of mounted calligraphy and painting, integrate theory with practice by learning mounting reference books and observing operations on the spot, and take notes when necessary, so as to gradually become fully familiar with them and deepen their understanding and memory. The second step is to start "helping", that is, doing some auxiliary work that is easy to master. In the process of helping others, we should pay attention to observing and imitating the actions of the operators in order to understand and master them. The third step, under the guidance of technicians, according to the order of mounting calligraphy and painting, the basic operation training is divided into five parts: supporting, cutting, embedding, covering and mounting. Support: support various inlays and calligraphy centers. Inserts include silk, silk, brocade, brocade and paper. You can start with the backing paper (or backing paper) and master the essentials of brushing and backing paper, and then learn to support silk and learn to support dyeing silk with color mixing water. Entrusting painting and calligraphy is more difficult than entrusting materials. If the entrustment fails, it will only be the price of rice paper and silk, but if the entrustment fails, the consequences will be very serious. So novices should be careful and take it seriously. When learning to support the heart, first use all kinds of rice paper with thin texture and weak tension to simulate support. Wet heart, flying support, holding support and other support methods should be practiced several times. Then prepare some Chinese painting or calligraphy exercises with no artistic value for trial support. After repeated practice, gradually master the basic essentials of entrustment, and then formally engage in entrustment work. Cutting: that is, the basic skills of "using a knife", such as square heart, blanking (including cutting spacers and wrapping paper), trimming, cutting, and matching backing paper. Beginners can practice puncturing with waste paper ends and waste silk edges first. Pay attention to hold the knife straight, transport the knife steadily, and use light force to prevent cutting, gnawing, sliding or using too much force. That is to say, you can practice cutting spacing strips and wrapping paper, and then practice centering, blanking and trimming. Mosaic: including calligraphy and painting mosaic, edge returning or wrapping, folding and pasting serial port, etc. At first, it was also simulated. You can take some pieces of paper and silk thread and practice the basic skills of splicing, trimming, wrapping and folding serial ports. When practicing inlay, we should pay attention to the small and uniform paste mouth, moderate paste dosage and no inlay burst. The back edge or side edge is required to be habitual and straight. Then continue to practice with some calligraphy and painting exercises. After meeting the basic requirements, you can engage in formal inlaying. Covering: the process of covering the back of calligraphy and painting, and its operation method is similar to the main points and materials. It mainly focuses on the practice of cutting and matching the lining paper, wrapping the wire head and sticking the ear, and tripping the paper. There are two common back cover methods: seat cover and overlapping cover, which can be practiced separately. You can also practice some calligraphy and painting exercises when you are a beginner to avoid problems and cause great losses. Assembly: assembling the rod immediately, including making money, stamping, trimming, stringing, measuring the rod, making the rod, assembling the rod and tying the belt. The process of polishing, trimming, measuring rod and making rod can also be simulated. Other processes can be practiced under the guidance of technicians. In this exercise, we should pay attention to the following questions: (1) When making money, try to keep the deposit intact and prevent the format from being discounted; When grinding, it is required to grind evenly; The trimming should be clean and the batch string should be correct; The measuring rod should be standard, the rod making should be standardized, and the rod installation should be decent. After the above basic training, you can carry out independent operation exercises from simple to complex. First, use ordinary calligraphy and painting works to mount the mirror center, paper-inlaid vertical shaft or horizontal shawl. After inspection and assessment by technicians, they have reached certain technical standards and have the ability to operate independently. They can independently mount twill or brocade vertical shafts and horizontal shawls, and then engage in mounting of other styles of mounting pieces. Beginners should learn and master the common sense of mounting calligraphy and painting while learning the basic mounting technology, such as the design of various styles and specifications, the use and color matching of various inserts, the problems that are easy to occur in each process and the methods of prevention and solution. This requires beginners to learn more (from books and experienced technicians); Practice more (practice and experiment more, practice makes perfect); Summarize more (summarize the experience and failure reasons in the work to help improve). Only by studying, practicing and summarizing repeatedly in this way can the mounting skill level gradually mature.
