Inspiration of the creation of the image of the figure of the figure

Through the study of the language performance language of the character painting, we can feel that the aesthetic character and spiritual connotation passed through the language form of the work through the language form of the image, which brings great inspiration and reference to the creator of the current brushwork figure painting creators On the basis of inheriting the tradition, we must also keep up with the development of the times and create works that reflect the spiritual connotation and cultural atmosphere of the current era.

Establishment of creative subject matter

The establishment of the creative content and concepts comes from the deep understanding and perception of the life of the painter. From the perspective of the painter itself, because of the love of a certain subject, it creates a unique style. Guan Xiu chose the theme of Luohan characters to express his intentions from his deep understanding of Buddhism and the impact of the surrounding objective environment. This theme has fully expressed the thoughts and emotions of Guan Xiu.

The work "Fishermen of Life" is created by fishermen in the south. During my undergraduate studies, the college arranged sketching to Zhoushan, but as an authentic northerner, he knew nothing about the life of the sea fishermen. After a deep understanding, he found that the profession of fishermen is undoubtedly the hardest and most dangerous. It is unknown, but for a better life, he is reckless. It is hoped that the fishermen lived by the sea through the form of pen figure paintings, depicting their spirit of righteousness and tenacity, and the author's sincere respect for fishermen.

Image expression in the use of creation

(1) Image expression of lines -expressing intentions

Zhang Yanyuan said that "the bone air, the shape of the shape, the intention, and the use of the pen", that is, the pen and ink are serving the "meaning". Gongbi character paintings are used as centers, the lines are round and smooth, and they also pay attention to the relationship between the pen and the ink, and it is also the key to the image of the picture. When hooking the line, you cannot be restrained by the external contour shape. Instead, you must pay attention to the artistic nature of the pen and ink brought to the picture, that is, the rhyme of the pen and ink. It makes the picture full of rhythm through the virtual reality and density of the lines. In the creation, the author uses different lines to express different shapes. For example, the hook lines of the clothing pattern are more of the impact of the ancient and ancient tracts of the successful works. Not only reflects the frustration of the pen, but also highlights the texture of the clothes (as shown in the figure. Because the skin of the working people is relatively rough, the lines of lines will be more rude, and it will also use the technique of rubbing to express it to express Their rough skin.

(2) Color imagery -freely

Color performance is one of the ways of artistic performance of gongbi figures. As a key component of painting, color can not only portray the objective objects, but also express the painter's ideological feelings. Therefore, the painter uses the color more subjective expression of the image, incorrectly follows the color of nature, so that objective objects and subjective intentions can be harmonious and unified, and the pursuit of Shangjian and elegant color concept is pursued. Showing the sense of elegance of Qing Run, making the viewer feel his extraordinary indifferent feelings. The part of "Fishermen of Life Impression" on the left

(3) Decorative Language -Image expression of texture

While inheriting traditional gongbi character painting techniques, modern painters began to pay attention to the beauty of the production of picture texture. The texture is manifested in ancient Chinese painting, such as Wang Mian's oil paper fragments. With the advancement of society, the richness of painting materials also brings different choices for artists, and different materials show different forms of beauty. Through the painter's continuous exploration of painting techniques, such as color accumulation ink, rubbing paper, printing, spraying, scrubbing, sandpaper grinding, salt sprinkle, foil, etc. Sexuality, and also enhances the performance of the imagery.

In the creation, I used different materials and techniques to make the picture have a special visual experience. For example, in the works of "Fishermen of Life Impression", the performance of wooden objects is polished with sandpaper, and then rubbing with pen and ink, which not only makes the picture texture, but also full of decoration. Secondly, in the processing of the picture details, the author uses different texture techniques to perform. For example, on the screening of the screen fishing network processing, the mottled marks are produced in the method of accumulating color accumulation, making the picture more vivid. Some metal objects are expressed in gold foil, such as the metal buckle of fishermen's clothes, iron wires and other items on fishing boats.

In short, the continuous innovation of artists in the new era on the basis of inheriting the tradition makes the paintings of gongbi figures reflect everything in the current era. The surface form brought by it should be loyal to your heart from the work itself, so as to create a paintings that resonate with the times
