Watercolor is a transparent color that is dissolved in water and painted on paper. It can penetrate and overlap to form objects. Because the pen dipped in watercolor, brush on paper, longer than chic, vivid and fresh, refreshing and natural. Transparency is a major feature of watercolor painting, which can be covered with bright colors on a dark background. Because it has no hiding power, it can continuously increase the richness of colors, and at the same time, it is necessary to leave out the bright parts. The white of paper is used as the color background of the bright parts, and the paper background plays the role of synthesizing colors.
Color painting is an important medium of expression in modern painting.
Watercolor painting, with its unique transparent and clear characteristics, pursues leisure, quality, quantity and imaginative language and rhythm in painting, thus winning the championship and going deep into the field of modern painting.
Modern watercolor painting has broken the concept of sketch illustration and accessory expression inherent in the history of western painting. Take the watercolor painting of the contemporary world as an example, which can definitely form a sharp contrast with the paintings of the old times. We can find that modern watercolor painting has absorbed the essence of early Dutch and British traditional techniques, German incisive description, cool design, European romantic style, American realistic sentiment and American realism, and China people are gradually exploring with their profound traditional culture, philosophy, life experience, scientific spirit and nature, and inner observation, thus realizing their white self.
Since the Second World War, the painting movement has revived, and the times have stimulated ideas, trends and artistic re-creation, but refused to restrict and follow suit. Chinese and western artists use old and new materials to create modern art with life and personality.
The pursuit of art is the highest goal, and to achieve the lofty realm and exquisite skills of watercolor painting, we must rely on solid technology and foundation. The empirical papers we have created and studied for many years, focusing on the discussion of techniques, are painstakingly seeking the materialization of artistic expression. However, without the free application of watercolor techniques, watercolor art cannot be vindicated. We attach importance to art and theory, but we should also pay attention to the great energy contained in painting techniques and the depth and breadth of expression.
When we appreciate the works, it is undeniable that we will be attracted by their gorgeous and complete pictures, but their tone, brushwork and mature structure will never affect the depth and seriousness of the works. If the technique of a painting is just right, then the technique is a part of art, which blends with the content and becomes a touching work. Its technique has its lofty value and will not be inferior. Therefore, before using calligraphy techniques, we should first consider thinking, artistic support and sincerity, and the cooperation between techniques and art should go hand in hand.
I don't agree that watercolor painting can only stay on the surface of art. The level of art does not depend on the type of materials, but on the breadth and narrowness of its artistic accomplishment, and also depends on the different expression methods and angles. Modern watercolor painting is therefore free and diverse, or enlightened and developed.
We worship Tanner in the 0/9th century, Cezanne watercolors in the 20th century and other masters. Their achievements in watercolor painting are real. In this era, it is a dangerous disease if we expect to make progress and surpass it significantly, make blind efforts in technology and pursue theoretical rigidity in art.
Studying modern watercolor painting is an important subject. The remarkable characteristics and application of watercolor painting can be explained in detail, making the inferior points, the connection with art and the possibility of expression. Understanding the different forms and development of modern watercolor painting in China and the important task of painting, painting is absolutely academic in the hands of people with artistic conscience, and it is also a question of artistic connotation, which is the key to success or failure. Good painting is the premise of the birth of great works.
Taking the twentieth century as the dividing line, the reason why modern watercolor painting is different from modern watercolor painting, or watercolor painting in an older era, is the drastic change in content and form, and the breakthrough in painting methods has made extensive progress. Only through the close cooperation and innovation of content and techniques can we create a successful painting and develop into a powerful trend and painting school. Modern watercolor painting adapts to the needs of the times, draws the products of the times, expresses the spirit of modern people, eliminates outdated views and inflexible expressions, and makes the blood of art circulate and become a new life and art. In the past, watercolor art mostly showed a quiet realm, a single and implicit painting method, a monotonous style and slow pace, or a lack of strong personal feelings.
Personal creation is valuable, valuable. /kloc-in the 9th century, especially Coatman, Gauldin and Turner realized the weakness of watercolor, released the shackles of lines and light colors, and made watercolor enter a new situation of color, atmosphere and free expression, which became a turning point in the history of watercolor development. In the twentieth century, Cezanne thought that nature was not only superficial, but also had its depth, and he had profound expression laws that influenced future generations. His blank space in watercolor painting shows the functional sense of white itself, as well as his split brushwork, which is realistic, expressive and profound in reasoning, and gives a lot of inspiration to later watercolor painting.
The future and value of watercolor books depend on individual's basic ideas, self-confidence and determination. Watercolor media is different from other materials because of time, area, wet and dry control, overlapping color number and other problems. Although it is difficult to express "quantity" and "touch", which is more accidental, there are many painters who can overcome difficulties and weaknesses, realize its advantages and give full play to its advantages, such as the works of Klee, Nold, Faninger, Groz, Xia Jiaer and Du Fei, which prove that watercolor painting should have a profound development.
Today's watercolor painting, because of the influence of ideas on expression methods and the wide application of materials, broadens the boundaries of ideas. For example, in the past, "water stain" was a major technical defect of watercolor painting, but modern watercolor painting in turn took advantage of this shortcoming and became the characteristics of painting, such as the painting and transfer in the works of Austrian painter Clara Masma Mayer and the painting of young painter Chen in China, which is such an example, thus creating a new aesthetic feeling. Han Wulin painted stones and flowers with a Jack nife and a little water. Liang Danhui painted wet flowers, fruits and still lives with too much water. Gu used an extremely fine Chinese painting brush to "paint" plant watercolors, and also used a spray pen to deal with layers. Calger. Plackman's concept of watercolor sketch is more important and artistic than the documentary function of sketch centuries ago.
Watercolor should maintain its transparency and the excellent relationship between water and color, which is why watercolor is called watercolor. Painting watercolor and playing watercolor are two different things. I accept both. Because I can only draw, I will inevitably become rigorous and diverse. If I can only play watercolor, then I lose the meaning of painting. Watercolor painting can't be "played" and it is difficult to carry forward. You should ask yourself the way of art and coordinate and improve it.
Finally, the artist should be sincere in the spirit of scientific experimenters, find the direction from trying setbacks, inherit the advantages of tradition and create a new future.

How to write a good paper "Talking about Watercolor Landscape Sketch"! On Watercolor Landscape Sketching
As a watercolor landscape sketch in color teaching, it is an effective method to help students know and understand the basic laws of composition, modeling, color and aesthetics. Its main purpose is to understand watercolor painting, a kind of painting with rich techniques, by observing the objective scenery, while studying the basic laws of painting, to consciously exert its techniques and performance characteristics, to establish its own aesthetic consciousness, to explore its own artistic expression (watercolor language) and to express its own artistic personality.
Through years of watercolor landscape painting and teaching practice, I want to talk about watercolor landscape painting from three aspects: observation, expression and emotion. These three aspects are important links in watercolor landscape painting, and they are closely linked to form a complete whole. Observation is the first step in watercolor landscape painting. In this link, we must first solve the problem of how to observe. Watercolor landscape sketch, as an eye art, is to regard complex and changeable natural scenery as a painting. Therefore, we should have the ability to look at the overall situation from a local perspective, grasp the initiative as much as possible, establish the overall consciousness of painting, and be faithful to nature. Secondly, we should be good at discovering, and we should find pictures in a world rich in natural things. In observation, starting with the structure and shape of natural objects, we can find the composition rules of points, lines and surfaces. For example, the spatial composition of buildings, the line-plane relationship between branches and leaves of trees, the shape composition and color composition of heaven, earth and things, from which we can find the painting space and picture composition we require, and finally form a whole picture scene in our own mind. This kind of picture is hazy and uncertain, with attractive aesthetic feeling, which makes the painter have the desire and passion to express. The observation of natural images in landscape sketch should emphasize the memory and grasp of instantaneous beauty, especially the memory and grasp of light, shadow and color changes. These are the two fastest and biggest factors in sketch, and the biggest change in time is sooner or later. Therefore, it is also the most difficult to freeze light, shadow and color moments in observation. It depends on the brain's ability to remember instantaneous objects, the painter's mastery of spatial structure, light and shadow perspective, light and color principle, and the painter's proficiency in performance technology (technique).
Performance is the second link of watercolor landscape painting. In order to show the picture in your mind, you must adopt certain expression techniques. Watercolor landscape sketch, as a color sketch, can not be separated from the principles of color and materials science, and can not be separated from expression techniques. Sketchers must first decompose and study the color components of the natural images they describe. Contrast and analyze the characteristics and different functions of each color, find out the color contrast, light and shade contrast, complementary color contrast, saturation contrast, area contrast and basic tone of the natural object to be described, and establish various tone sequences. Among them, the hue order includes hue, lightness, purity and the composition of specific hue, which controls the change and unified order of each color zone. In this process, the painter is mainly required to give full play to the freedom of subjective characteristics, so that the color relationship of the picture presents a higher or more beautiful realm. Material is the basis of color expression, and different materials and tools will produce different techniques. The tool materials used in watercolor landscape painting have relatively special properties, which are different from those used in gouache and oil painting. We must have a comprehensive understanding and mastery of the performance of drawing paper, pigments, brushes, water-assisted materials and tools, find out their characteristics and advantages, and overcome the limitations and weaknesses of materials and tools, so as to fully show what we see. According to different feelings, it is the key to choose appropriate expression methods and skills and determine the basic order and steps of expression. The procedure and steps of watercolor painting are the key to the success or failure of the work. Therefore, the procedure of watercolor painting should be perfectly combined with the procedure of landscape painting, and appropriate adjustments should be made for specific natural images, so as to use the envisaged methods and steps to express natural images stably, accurately and quickly. In the specific performance techniques, we should pay attention to the treatment of brush strokes and body edge lines, the superposition of color levels, the combination and infiltration of brush strokes and wet colors, and the texture between pen and paper, which are similar to the color changes and texture characteristics of the performance object. Simple and convenient methods are often used to express the main characteristics and charm of natural images. At the same time, in the performance, we should emphasize the combination of subjective expression and objective reproduction, with objective reproduction as the main factor and subjective expression as the supplement. Sketch works that simply reproduce various relationships can hardly reach the realm of artistic expression.
In a sense, watercolor landscape painting is also the expression and exchange of emotions, and it is the third link of watercolor landscape painting. The emotion mentioned here refers to aesthetic emotion, which is an artistic form or expression of the painter's feelings about the objective world and expresses his feelings, which is also the ultimate goal of watercolor landscape painting. In the process of sketching, emotion originates from natural images, accumulates in the painter's chest, flows in his pen and condenses on watercolor paper. Therefore, watercolor landscape painting is actually a writing process from beginning to end, and brushwork is the most important language vocabulary to convey emotion, which constitutes the charm of sketch works. The completion of a landscape sketch is the product of the painter's emotional input and labor. It requires the painter to have a whole consciousness and real feelings while painting in the face of nature, so that sketch can become the painter's sincere emotion. Constable's innocence, Turner's boldness and strangeness, Van Gogh's beating fanaticism, Connor's quietness and gentleness, and Impressionism's enthusiasm and unrestrained all show the painter's emotional connotation of nature. The painter's aesthetic emotion determines the final artistic taste and style of sketch works. In watercolor landscape painting, emotion runs through observation and expression, and runs through the whole painting process.
Emotion comes from observation and also affects the painter's observation. It determines the painter's performance and is also subject to the painter's performance.
