The Italian painter Lang Shining tried to use realistic techniques to paint many Chinese paintings. The objects were vivid and the images were lifelike. He became famous as a court painter in the Kangxi era. But his painting method is far from the traditional brush and ink of Chinese painting, so few people follow him, let alone pass it down. The characteristics of freehand brushwork in Chinese painting are: 1. Emphasizing the charm and not seeking similar imagery. 2. Replace reality with fiction, inspiring the subtle and vast space of association. 3. Chinese painting has many subjective factors, while Western painting has many objective factors. According to Western painting theory, lines do not exist. The lines that people see are just the visual image produced by the turning of the object's surface and the compression of its volume. In Chinese painting, lines are extracted separately as the main means of painting. This cannot but be said that Chinese painting has a strong subjective color. Chinese painting is not restricted by time and space, and can be done freely. The source of the heart beyond the image. From the perspective of Western painting concepts, Chinese painting is unreasonable and even unscientific. In the eyes of Chinese painters, it is allowed and legal. However, Chinese painting is restricted by tools and has a weak realistic function, especially figure painting, which has gradually declined since the Jin and Tang Dynasties. It was not until the past hundred years that some scholars introduced Western teaching methods to inject new vitality into ancient Chinese painting. Western painters pursue realistic functions and emphasize real feelings. It is a three-dimensional and multi-dimensional creative method. Leonardo da Vinci once dissected corpses late at night to study the shape of each skeletal muscle. This realistic spirit is admirable. The sculptor used a real person as a model. Michelangelo's David statue is like a living person reborn, and every blood vessel seems to be flowing with bright red blood. In the 18th century, Russian art educator Cheschakov summarized a complete teaching system. The painter also focused on the creation of major themes such as literature and history, which brought painting to the political stage. With the continuous advancement of science, the emergence of cameras, movies, and television has brought unprecedented impact and challenges to Western realism painting. Their realistic functions were gradually replaced by machinery. Therefore, the painter turned his attention to the east and looked for a way out from the lines of Chinese paintings. Get rid of confusion and confusion from Nietzsche's philosophical theory. Following Matisse and Picasso, various schools of thought took the lead, including Expressionism, Impressionism, and Surrealism, to name a few. Every art has its strengths and weaknesses, and in a sense, the weaknesses are also strengths. There are no backward nations in the world, only backward economies. There are no inferior paintings in the world, only inferior paintings. There is no absolute right or wrong in art. Only different nations have their own aesthetic habits, different cultural backgrounds and different ways of expression. But human beings have the same pursuit of beauty, and everyone enjoys beautiful things.
