Abstract

The four main styles of Chinese calligraphy characters are in the general order of their appearance: seal script, clerical script, regular script, and cursive­semi­cursive script. Generally, all the characters in a calligraphic art work have a consistent type of script. In this paper, we develop a new genre of calligraphy art, in which the components constituting one character are expressed into the seal script and cursive­semi­cursive script, which is a fusion of the two scripts.
 The fusion of these scripts brings forth various aesthetic characteristics by greatly expanding the formativeness of the scripts. This fusion script maintains the aesthetic characteristics of each of the two scripts, and in combined form, it shows its own diverse yet unique aesthetic aspects.
 The calligraphic art work in this fusion script genre inherits the artistry in both of the seal script genre and the cursive­or­semi­cursive script genre. Furthermore, as a synergy effect of the two genres, it has infinite potential artistry and displays an inspiringly profound and rich yet unique artistic atmosphere and inspiration.
