Mr Li Xiongcai is a master of painting school, and his brilliant achievements in painting are well known. In calligraphy, his achievements are equally outstanding, but "the title is covered by the name of the painting." His calligraphy achievements have not received sufficient attention, attention and publicity in the past because of his more famous paintings. Mr. Li Xiongcai's calligraphy attainments are first manifested in his profound understanding of the relationship between calligraphy and painting. In his personal notes, he repeatedly emphasized the role of calligraphy rules in painting creation. He emphasized that painting should absorb the essence from calligraphy writing, wrist movements, various statutes and even the expression spirit of calligraphy. This is his understanding of the relationship between calligraphy and painting. He not only put forward in his private notes, but also showed his creative views in his paintings.

The brushwork and lines in his paintings reveal his profound calligraphy skills and rich brushwork charm everywhere. One feature of his paintings is that they are often accompanied by long inscriptions. These inscriptions, on the one hand, can help appreciators understand the painter's creative thinking, on the other hand, they can also cooperate with the management of the picture, so that painting, calligraphy and literature can reflect each other in the picture scroll, showing a strong cultural atmosphere and implication. Li Xiongcai's calligraphy attainments are also reflected in his understanding of calligraphy. He used a book called Calligraphy Notes to summarize and compile the calligraphy theories of past dynasties. There are many calligraphy theory in the past dynasties, but he made his choice according to his own understanding, which shows his understanding and understanding of the overall individualization and centralization of calligraphy art.

In his works, no matter the title or the independent works, we can see the traces of copying the ancients, which is especially obvious in his works when he was young. From these traces, we can see that he learned from Zhong You in small letters, directly copied the Han tablet and the emperor statue with official script, and made great achievements. When he was young, he was also influenced by the high Gu Teng style. In his later paintings, this kind of interest is relatively less, but there are still traces in his later calligraphy works.

Appreciating his calligraphy works, you will find that he has a good grasp of various ways, from knot, pen, spirit to charm. His regular script writing often shows the simple and elegant style of ancient Zhong You, while his long grass shows a smart and natural atmosphere in terms of massiness. In his later years, his calligraphy creation with big characters often experienced ups and downs, showing a vigorous and heroic momentum.

Mr Li Xiongcai's calligraphy method is open. Because of his broad brushstrokes, he can always create calligraphy according to different paintings, different scenes and different needs, so that calligraphy and painting styles complement each other. This shows that he has a high level of creation and artistic accomplishment, which many young painters in modern times lack. After a painting is finished, if the painter just signs it, what he expresses is very limited and can't fully show the cultural atmosphere of Chinese painting. Li Xiongcai can distinguish the different characteristics and advantages of Chinese and Western paintings and carry them forward. Whether studying, researching or creating, Li Lao's practice has given us a lot of beneficial enlightenment, which is worth popularizing.
