Teach you five steps to create landscape painting.

Speaking of landscape painting, do you have a beautiful picture in your mind? Today, I will share with you the process of making landscape paintings.

Landscape painting is a kind of Chinese painting. As we all know, Chinese painting includes many kinds, such as meticulous painting, flower-and-bird painting and landscape painting.

Landscape painting is an art form that takes the great rivers and mountains of the motherland as the object and is displayed to everyone after artistic treatment.

You may think that the creation of landscape painting is very complicated. In fact, the process of landscape painting creation is not difficult.

The creation of landscape painting needs a certain foundation. What foundation?

First of all, you need to have a certain calligraphy foundation. Landscape painting is done through calligraphy.

Secondly, to do landscape painting, we should observe more and appreciate the beauty of nature, so as to have a big pattern and a big mind.

Third, have a feeling of being alive. Landscape painting takes scenery as the description object, but it is different from photography, which requires artistic treatment of scenery, which requires more study in peacetime.

Having said that, I want to tell you that as a landscape painter or a friend who loves landscape painting, it is very helpful to get in touch with nature and observe its changes.

Next, I will tell you how to draw a beautiful landscape painting.

From a technical point of view, the production process of landscape painting is generally divided into the following steps: sketching, stippling, rubbing, awakening, supplementing and perfecting.

The first step: outline.

To create a landscape painting, you need to conceive and layout, give a general description of the scenery you have drawn, start from the big picture and draw a general outline, including the layout of mountains, stones, trees and water.

Beginners can go to nature to sketch or copy previous paintings. The pattern should be large and the momentum should be magnificent.

Pay attention to the use of different brushwork when sketching. The brushwork of center, flank, seal script and official script should be combined to show strength and characteristics. Rough mountains, delicate water and elegant clouds should all be reflected by brush strokes.

Step 2: Spot dyeing.

Point is a technique to improve the color and level of landscape painting through the change of ink color, which can show the massiness between mountains and rivers.

Dyeing is to use Chinese painting pigments to describe the color changes of the landscape and enrich the content and level of the picture.

The main purpose of stippling is to draw the main outline, separate the yin and yang sides and the ups and downs, use thick ink on the back and light ink on the front to draw the layering of trees, clouds and stones.

In this process, we should pay attention to the sense of hierarchy and picture, pay attention to the changes of the cloudy side and the sunny side, and draw lush trees and smart clouds. Thick is thick, light is light.

The third step is rubbing.

Edge banding is a very important part of landscape painting, and there are many methods of edge banding, such as wearing, splitting, rice edge banding, folding and so on.

Landscape painting uses painting methods to express different tastes and momentum. To show the roughness of the mountains in the north, we can use giant axes to show the lush weather of the water towns in the south of the Yangtze River, and most of them use rice stippling, and so on.

Rubbing is a kind of expression technique that can reflect the unique meaning of landscape painting. Usually combined with rubbings, stippling and other techniques, the brushwork and the layering of ink color are used to reflect the massiness of landscape painting.

The rubbings enrich the ink color of landscape painting and the change of scenery, and further show the sense of hierarchy and heaviness, which makes people immersive and embodies the charm of Chinese painting.

The fourth step is awakening.

After sketching, stippling, rubbing, etc., the picture effect is presented. At this time, I don't feel the desired effect, the layering is not strong enough, and the ink color changes are not rich enough. I need to wake up.

Awakening is a strengthening method, which outlines the important parts, highlights the spirit of the main parts, and highlights the change of ink color and the distinction between primary and secondary.

If you feel that something is not enough, strengthen it again to make the contrast more obvious, the ink color changes more abundantly and the color is more beautiful.

The fifth step is perfection.

After all the paintings are finished, you should supplement or arrange the details and the overall picture. What should be emphasized should be emphasized, and what should be diluted should be diluted. Through artistic treatment, you can show the level and artistic conception of the scenery you painted.

When you are satisfied, you must sign and seal it.

When signing, pay attention to the font to match the style of painting and the seal position to be appropriate. You can't work hard to finish a painting, and signing a contract will not be good, which will ruin your efforts.

The creation of a landscape painting is often the result of the painter's observation and perception of the landscape at ordinary times and long-term accumulation.

The creation of landscape painting is based on the painter's pattern and volume. In the process of painting, we should pay special attention to the sense of hierarchy, express the sense of picture and weight through the change of ink color and distance, and make a satisfactory work through artistic treatment.
