The Painting Method of Chrysanthemum in Chinese Painting

The Chinese painting of chrysanthemum leaves is as follows:

Tool preparation: tassel paper or semi-cooked rice paper? A few white clouds pens, Zhu Lan Langhao pens, colored ones (Garcinia, Huaqing), a Dege ink, pen washing (bowls will do), and ink dishes.

1. First, according to the steps, draw the flower head and set the position of the main flower head in the center of the picture. Pay attention to the direction and size of flower heads when drawing them, and don't be too similar. Pay attention to the vivid charm of the pen in the center, and be flexible between the lines, not too rigid. Stone painting is similar to landscape painting, but the stone treatment in flower-and-bird painting should be simple and generous to set off the flower theme, so the stone can be slightly rubbed. As shown in the figure below:

Step 2, start drawing leaves. First, mix two lighter inks and dip them in two different inks: Garcinia and Anthurium. There is a kind of Anthurium with a high proportion, which is used to draw positive leaves. Another kind of gamboge is more, which is used to draw opposite leaves. Draw the main branches first, interspersed with leaves in the middle, and then draw the leaves, which is convenient for arranging the position and posture of the leaves. When drawing leaves, pay attention to leave some small gaps between the leaves, which is easier to distinguish. As shown in the figure below:

3. After painting the leaf, start painting the vein when it is half dry. Pay attention to draw the main vein with coarse ink first, and then draw the small vein. Use a thin pen, not too thick. As shown in the figure below:

4. After painting the veins, you can insert some dead branches in the middle of the chrysanthemum. Attention should be paid when drawing dead branches, and the posture and insertion method should not be too similar. The painting method of Shangyu landscape painting tree is similar, and the pen is flexible and loose. As shown in the figure below:

5. Start dyeing some light cyan ink around the flower head. First, use a pen to dye clear water around the flower head, then mix some light cyan ink and dye cyan ink along the edge line of the flower head. After the dyeing is finished, you can paint the rock with the nail head a little, and you have finished such a beautiful chrysanthemum work.
