At present, the production technology of cloisonne painting in society can be divided into two categories, namely "positive practice" and "negative practice"!
The so-called positive film method refers to the gradual tracing, pinching, dipping and coloring of the front of the object, and finally polishing the picture with resin to form a bright surface. This practice is also the most popular production process at present, and most of them are this practice.
On the contrary, a template, usually glass, is used. First, its surface is specially treated, then it is coated with a special release agent, and then it begins to pinch silk and color. Finally, the back base height of the painting body is treated to make the painting body have a certain thickness. After all this is done, the painting will fall off the glass, so that the surface next to the glass will naturally form a bright surface, which is the side that is finally presented to people for viewing. In fact, it is done on the reverse side of the finished painting, so we call it anti-training. This method is also a new technology that has been widely circulated on the Internet for several generations. No tracing, no floor, no separate film covering, and the painting material itself becomes a whole. As long as there is no wire drawing, no bottom plate and no plastic film with its own bright surface, it belongs to the category of anti-practice.
Positive film method and negative film method have their own advantages and disadvantages for the complexity of the production process and the effect of the finished picture. Don't generalize which is advanced and which is backward, and don't belittle the rubbish of other people's technology, let alone myth the advanced degree of new technology. After we discover the principle of new technology, the public will not feel so mysterious. After all, it's not a sophisticated technology, just different materials and methods.
After years of research and digestion, we objectively summarize the advantages and disadvantages of both positive and negative practices as follows for discussion:
In fact, before making cloisonne craft paintings, we should first prepare suitable wooden boards (or glass, and some also use gypsum boards), wash the glaze or colored sand, and prepare the sketches of the patterns to be made.
First, copy the drawing on the board, then fix the silk with glue according to the line trend on the drawing, mix the washed glaze or colored sand with sand glue, then color it according to the color map, and polish the surface of the picture with transparent resin after the sand is dried, which is also called bonding, and finally form a bright picture. Some are not covered with film, but directly filled with sand and sold as finished paintings.
According to the normal operation, its advantages are: 1, the picture color is too natural, and the craftsman can make a photo-like picture effect. 2, simple operation, free to carry, suitable for small-scale entrepreneurship, no need for large venues. 3. The appearance of finished products can be expressed in two ways: frameless painting and framed painting. It has a wide range of applications. Besides decorative painting, it can also be combined with other materials to make unique furniture, screens, glass artworks and various special-shaped handicrafts. 5, the process technology is simple and easy to master, and novices are easy to get started. 6, the operating environment is clean, almost no irritating smell. 7. There are obvious handwork marks, and customers recognize its handcraft artistic value. 8, suitable for on-site production performance and promotion, reflecting the technical value.
The disadvantages of positive film method are: 1, poor selection or treatment of drawing board, and easy deformation of finished painting. 2, the tracing process is more troublesome. 3. The glaze used needs to be washed with water, and the cost is high. 4. If the film covering is not handled properly in the later stage, bubbles and unevenness are easy to appear in the picture. 5, the work speed is not fast, the output is not big, etc.
According to the reverse method, its advantages are: 1, no bottom plate, just a piece of glass, and the finished painting is completely formed by resin and colored sand with a certain thickness, without any back plate. 2, there is no need to draw pictures, which saves the tedious drawing. 3, the picture color can be colored with chemical pigments and quartz sand, and the cost is lower than that of glaze. 4. The appearance of the picture is smooth and there is no film covering. The side away from the glass is smooth, which is equivalent to automatic lamination. 5, the coloring speed is fast, and it can be cured in a few minutes. Therefore, the yield is higher than the conventional method, and it is suitable for large-scale production. 6. With the aid of appliances, curved, irregular and other curved pictures can be made. 7. This kind of craft painting can also be combined with other materials to make furniture, screens and other products, but the picture effect is worse than the normal method.
The disadvantages of the reverse method are: 1, the picture color is relatively simple, it is not easy to make an ideal over-color, and the finished picture effect is not as obvious as that of the products made by the positive method. 2, need a lot of different specifications of glass as a template, especially some large paintings of glass, some inconvenient to move and clean. 3, need a lot of space, it is best to operate in several operating rooms. You need a release agent to remove the painting from the glass. 4. The finished paintings are relatively heavy, especially some large murals.
The so-called solitary yin is not born, and solitary yang is not long. Everything has two sides, and there is no absolute difference between advanced and backward. Positive and negative practices have their own advantages and disadvantages. Therefore, we should face up to this fact, and should not only report good news but not bad news. After summing up various practical experiences, we can make full use of our strengths and avoid weaknesses, and choose different production processes according to different requirements of customers.
Mr. Liu Fengwei is the founder of our Qinhuangdao Lan Xin Art Embedding Crafts Company, and has been engaged in cloisonne painting industry for nearly 65,438+00 years. Co-founded a number of cloisonne painting factories, mastered various techniques in the positive and negative methods, improved both methods to varying degrees, and had rich experience in processing, export trade, online marketing, marketing and so on.
In line with honest management, we will spread the comprehensive and systematic production technology of cloisonne paintings and innovate the concept of developing cloisonne paintings. We hope that through our own efforts, we can unite people in the cloisonne painting industry, promote the standardized operation and development of such paintings in the market, jump out of the dispute between technology generation and new and old, and produce and sell finished paintings in a down-to-earth manner, so that products will be truly marketized, the market will be expanded, and the vast number of practitioners will have room for development.
Relying on rich production and processing experience, market operation means and network marketing ability, we launched the "Cloisonne Painting Production Technology Training" project, and Qinhuangdao Lan Xin Art Embedding Crafts Company taught us a comprehensive and systematic Cloisonne Painting Production Technology.
We export technology, management and sales experience, so that students studying here can not only master solid and complete technology, but also get the follow-up support from the company in marketing. In order to increase the transparency of technology transfer and prevent students from being deceived, our production workshop is open to the outside world, allowing free visits to the production process, and paying for learning after confirming that our technical level is really worth spending money!
