Characteristics of China's Traditional Chinese Painting
1, artistic conception of pen and ink: China's traditional Chinese painting pays attention to the use of pen and ink and the expression of artistic conception. By using the techniques of ink, line, dot and surface, as well as the techniques of hook, dot, dyeing and writing, rich artistic effects are created. The shade of ink color, the change of brush strokes and the rendering of pen and ink can all show shape, texture, shadow, light and shadow.
2. The combination of blank space and reality: China pays attention to the use of blank space in Chinese painting. Blanking is not only an unfilled blank area in the picture, but also the embodiment of artistic conception. The skill of combining the virtual and the real makes the picture have more imagination space, leaving the viewer with room for aftertaste and imagination.
3. Give priority to freehand brushwork: China's traditional Chinese painting pursues theme and artistic conception, emphasizing pen and ink freedom and artistic creativity. Don't stick to the accurate description of details, but pay more attention to convey emotions and artistic conception through concise brushstrokes and image deformation.
