| Plants have been around for two and a half billion years,and they work together with other organisms in nature to maintain ecological balance.Plants have an important value in nature and society,and they also have an irreplaceable position in paintings.Plant paintings have a long history of development,and after becoming an independent subject of painting,they have shown a richer form of expression.The growth of plants also triggers people to think about life,and then integrate their own spiritual pursuit in the picture to form their own painting style.In this paper,we will analyze the works of the series "Leaf Life" and discuss them in three parts: the origin of creation,the creation process,and the conclusion of creation.Understanding the natural and cultural attributes of plants,the paintings are used as examples to compare and analyze the development of Chinese and Western botanical paintings.In-depth analysis is made from the selection of subject matter,the construction of form,and the expression of color and emotion.At the same time,the power of life is reflected through the symbolic meaning of plants,the integration of nature and painting is perceived,and the inner emotions are expressed,showing the uniqueness of the language of botanical painting in watercolor. |
