A Study On The Artistic Language Of Watercolor Painting And Woodcut Watermarking

The comparative study of two different painting languages,watercolor painting and woodcut watermarking,is actually a comparison of the inner qualities of western watercolor painting and traditional Chinese painting.The main research direction of this paper is to start from the comparison of material medium,formal language and color language between watercolor painting and woodcut watermark,and then discuss the similarities and differences of the two in the creation of aesthetic direction,artistic expression and aesthetic spirit.Diversified development provides new ideas and research directions.The first chapter mainly discusses the material medium of watercolor painting and woodcut watermark,that is,the tools and materials needed in the creative process.First,paper plays an extremely important role as the base material of the two,because the technical rules of watercolor painting and woodcut watermark in the drawing process determine that the quality of paper must be able to withstand this kind of painting characteristics;secondly,for traditional watercolor painting and woodcut watermark technical analysis of performance skills and methods.The traditional watercolor painting medium has limitations,so the pictures mostly rely on techniques such as "blank","rendering","stippling",and "overlapping".start to use.The technique of watermark woodcut is mainly reflected in the use of color rubbing on wood and paper,which is the result of the inheritance of the unique charm of Chinese culture.Finally,water is an indispensable medium for the two painting arts,and the analysis of water is the basis for the subsequent discussion of the aesthetic language of watercolor painting and watermark woodcut.The second chapter discusses the conceptual analysis and color contrast of the formal language between watercolors and woodcut watermarks.As a type of painting introduced from the West to China,watercolor painting can be said to be more systematic and scientific in its concept of formal language.The use and expression of "point","line","surface" and three-dimensional space can be seen in Western painting theory.In the analysis of "beauty" factors,the color application of watercolor painting is mainly based on "transparency" and "extensibility".The concept of the formal language of woodcut watermarks is an art form derived from the use of early printmaking and the main purpose of printing.It pays more attention to the performance in two-dimensional plane space.The third chapter is based on the previous two chapters,and further discusses the similarities and differences between the two in aesthetic language.Compared with the West,Chinese painting art theory is more persuasive to distinguish between "realism" and "freehand brushwork".The development of Western art history has its own uniqueness,and the discussion of philosophical thoughts also aims to pursue "true beauty" and "natural beauty".Therefore,a detailed analysis of the background of Chinese and Western aesthetic theories and attitudes towards image expression can help better The aesthetic language of inquiry is inherent in watercolor painting and watermark woodcut art.
