The relationship between photography and painting

The similarity between the two lies in the discovery of beauty. If it is simple, the photographer is to preserve beauty, and painting is to process beauty.

A painting works more or less reflects the creator's ideas and viewpoints, that is, what you see is very similar to what you photographed, and the people who painted in it have done some treatments, such as highlighting the subject, weakening the background and blurring the dividing line, and also expressing a person or landscape, which can be expressed by straight lines and curves (language from lines), or by sketches, traditional Chinese paintings, oil paintings, watercolors, gouache and prints. . . . . . Show it (in the form of painting). All this is also the individual's thoughts or subjective consciousness when choosing the above painting language or painting form (why choose watercolor instead of sketch? Why paint realistically instead of abstractly? )。

My teacher once said when teaching me sketching that if you are persistent about the object you are drawing, you might as well take pictures. What he means is that everyone has his own ideas, and some things that look ugly can be treated subjectively when painting. For example, this girl's hand ratio looks uncomfortable, but she can imagine or process it into a comfortable ratio when drawing. )
