First, tools:
For Chinese painting, tools refer to "pen, ink, paper, inkstone, color, seal" and so on, collectively referred to as "Four Treasures of the Study". Of course, the tools used by literati painters are far more than these. In particular, the ancient literati attached great importance to "Four Treasures of the Study" for their own reasons. Today, we know about painting tools such as "Four Treasures of the Study". First of all, we know the relevant knowledge. Second, we make better use of "tools". Third, nourish the soul and delight the feelings. At the same time, "Four Treasures of the Study" is ornamental. It has been with your life for a long time and made your life elegant. For a person who likes Chinese painting, it is very important to "cultivate one's morality outside the painting and make achievements inside the painting".

Third, look at the picture:
Reading more good paintings can make us objectively judge and affirm the known painting methods and theories, and at the same time pose new challenges to the unknown. Reading pictures is an artistic interaction and communication. The ancients said that "learning method is almost superior", that is, reading "classics" and "good painting" China has a history of thousands of years, and the famous paintings that can be handed down are classic and the most representative styles.
You can refer to the following aspects when looking at the picture:

Four, sketch:
Sketching is to go deep into life and understand nature (object). Rb: It is the characteristic and law of nature. Therefore, there is a saying that "look at its potential from a distance and look at its quality". Only by fully understanding nature and recording its characteristics can we properly express "things". At the same time, when we are in contact with nature, we will inevitably have creative enthusiasm, which is the source of creation. Nature (thing) is the carrier of our spirit at this moment, and it is the full embodiment of the principle and essence of sketch. "Nature is my teacher" (Qing Shi Tao language).
Of course, the basic skills we put forward, because everyone's achievements in different periods are different, the requirements are different, and art has no end, and it needs constant accumulation and constant attempt. Pursuing art is a painter's spiritual enjoyment. Only by loving can we persist. Only by perseverance can we show the spark of thought and record a beautiful life course.
