Lu Shan's penname is Yi Feng. He was born in 1939 and is currently a member of Zhong Nan Hai Zi
Guang Ge Calligraphy Association. His style of cursive script is quite unique and exhibits a feeling
akin to abstract painting. Thick, wet strokes mixed with small, thin ones create an
overall patterning that truly pleases the eye.
