Stage of development from the lines we have the feelings of its characteristic features of the times. From the tomb murals, stone, brick portraits to murals of Dunhuang superb line drawing, from the Wei and Jin Dynasties of Gu Kaizhi silking, the Tang Dynasty of Brasenia schreberi Gmel Wu daozi article, Li Gonglin figures Song emerging minus T impressionistic paintings, to near modern Ren Bonian portraits, to modern Zhou Sicong Liu Guohui, the line that is constantly changing course of the development of Chinese painting.Chinese painting is the line of modeling language, it has a unique aesthetic requirements, it can be expressed in modeling, performance space, through its wet and dry strength, interspersed to show the objects in space move, through its duplication can be hidden and revealed the level of performance. It is very dynamic and diverse forms. Has existed since ancient "homologous paintings," one said that the Chinese painting stipple lines outline, ease of operation sense of rhythm makes it full of vitality, vivid screen also attractive. In addition, the ancient "anger, hi painting orchid" is. First column is always fluent, less setback, not a turning point of the angle lines Lu-kyu, you can steal quick emotional performance. While many come to a halt, showing an incomprehensible state of great lines halted, it will show an anxious feeling and excellent sense of Yu, and show unpleasant emotions. Lines of the abstract and makes it varied with the expression of feelings of uniqueness, emotions and will have a bearing function.Chinese painting and Western painting the starting point is the same, original paintings are also in the West line shape, such as Spain Altamira cave painting in the Paleolithic period of "bison." However, because of geographical factors such as differences in the culture of continuous development of the progressive development of Western painting and lighting for a decent performance as the means to reproduce the real life-style system of traditional Western painting painting of lines to be subordinate to the performance targets are dependent on modeling. The main lines are in order to accurately depict realistic objects, in order to accurately depict the object's position in space. Left to the performance of physical, structural, light and shade, such as the specific content of the line itself, there would be no erosion of the value of legislation. Changes in line shape is subject to required, based on surface compression lines are an aid to painting, and Chinese painting to the main line, secondary line shapes are shapes are essentially different.Chinese painting style in line shapes is caused by many reasons. First of all, the Chinese worldview monism that "harmony between man and nature," think of man and nature are one. And the person with the universe as a whole to reach a satisfactory and ideal realm, which is China's pursuit of the humanistic spirit of the highest standards. Therefore, the artists will be passed on from life, but also the art of living is higher than the full of the feelings of image description to lyrical impressionistic approach to enable the viewer to experience as outside and smell things as surely induced people to sentiment consistent with human nature and that the pursuit of freedom and liberation of the spiritual realm. Secondly, the thrust of Chinese aesthetics is "mood" to shape Chinese Painting Writing God, God of God to be the performance of Chinese Painting the ultimate goal, so all the red tape, too lifelike realism of the painting are manifestations of God hinder. Finally, China's highly developed art of calligraphy, so that lines of calligraphy can charm into the abstract, the lines of Chinese painting can be that does not cling to form and independent existence, the development of the art of calligraphy, making it the ability to strengthen the control of ink on the lines also pay more attention to art, "art of calligraphy," the concept of the formation, making Chinese painting has strengthened the importance of ink lines and development, making the screen added a sense of beauty, in turn, has promoted the study of lines. Above all, of course, many other reasons, are destined to make Chinese painting as a painting line.Chinese painting after a thousand years of development, near the modern, especially modern, Xu, Jiang Zhaohe and such person will be the introduction of Chinese painting sketch the West, they pay more attention to the accuracy of modeling to enhance the performance of line, and laid a new figure in modern China the development of a large number of innovative creative work. However, the Chinese painting to performance-based rather than reproduction of life in order to line shapes. Chinese Painting of the line after the artist's refined, summarized, alteration or reorganization, making lines with stronger vitality, tension and power the screen has, which is the unique Chinese paintings and advantages. How will the future of Chinese painting and Western painting a more perfect combination, making Chinese painting has a stronger performance, without compromising the uniqueness of Chinese painting, it is necessary to watch practice and research will be how to promote its development.
