In the environment of Chinese culture, watercolor lies in a special situation,which came from western world. We could find the prosperity of modern Chinesepainting from the truth that many exhibitions have planed and displayed in themodern china. The collection between different countries including ourselves notonly brings us an overall environment of modern watercolor, but also excludes theblind adoration to the western watercolor, which usually happened in the past.Without tracing the English tradition of watercolor, Chinese painters strive hard toexplore various new ways for that with individual characteristics and local impression.The structure of this essay includes three aspects: analyzing and clarifying theinstance of Chinese modern watercolor; generalizing the characters of depictingprocess and the reason behind that procedure; relating the experience and reflectionduring the depiction process. Lying on the work above, I hope we could have a morerational and reasonable understanding of Chinese watercolor. |
