Collocation skills of gouache painting
1. Lines are widely used in Chinese painting, while those in Western painting are not obvious. Most of the lines are not the original objects, but are used by painters to represent the realm of the two images.
2. Chinese painting does not pay attention to perspective, while western painting attaches great importance to perspective. Perspective is the representation of three-dimensional objects on the plane. Western paintings strive to look like real objects, so they pay great attention to perspective.
3. Oriental figure painting does not talk about anatomy, while Western figure painting attaches great importance to anatomy. Anatomy is the study of the shape of human bones and muscles. Western people must study anatomy before they make figure painting. The purpose of Chinese figure painting is to show the character's posture.
4. Chinese painting does not attach importance to the background, while western painting attaches great importance to the background. Chinese painting does not pay attention to the background, such as writing plum blossom, one hanging in the air, surrounded by white paper. Western painting is not the case, everything must have a background, such as fruit, its background is the table.
5. The subject matter of Oriental painting is nature, while that of Western painting is character. Before the Han Dynasty, Chinese painting also took figures as the main theme. But in the Tang Dynasty, landscape painting was independent. Until today, landscape has always been the formal form of Chinese painting. Since the Greek era, the western countries have been taking characters as the main theme. Most religious paintings in the middle ages are about the masses.
Maintenance and cleaning methods of gouache painting
1. Keep out of the light
As calligraphy and painting are generally based on paper, silk, etc., ultraviolet rays in the sun will make the fibers of paper and silk deteriorate or turn yellow, fade and brittle, resulting in the damage of calligraphy and painting, thus shortening the life of calligraphy and painting. Therefore, calligraphy and painting should be placed in a dark, cool, dry and clean place for proper storage.
2. Keep away from moisture
The first is to choose the non humid wall to hang, and to avoid the place where there is water vapor indoors to prevent the moisture from attaching to the calligraphy and painting; the second is to collect the exposed calligraphy and painting temporarily before the rainy season comes. After the rainy season, timely select sunny and dry weather to unfold or hang the calligraphy and painting one by one, so as to disperse the moisture in the ventilation.
3. Get rid of the dust
Before collecting calligraphy and painting, it is better to dust the surface of calligraphy and painting to prevent dust from rolling into calligraphy and painting, and to prevent mildew, pollution and insect damage in the shaft head. Pay special attention to the silk calligraphy and painting. If the dust falls in the silk seam, you must patiently remove it, otherwise the life of calligraphy and painting will be shortened in case of moisture. In addition, there are hidden eggs in the dust that can't be seen by human eyes. When the temperature and humidity are suitable, they will become adults, which will eat calligraphy and painting in the future. Therefore, calligraphy and painting should not be hung for several years, because the process of hanging is the process of slow weathering, deterioration, fading and damage.
4. Seal it
The best way to collect calligraphy and painting is to wrap them in kraft paper and put them in a box or cabinet with good sealing performance. At the same time, insect repellents such as camphor block should be placed at the corner of the box to prevent insect damage. Then put in the soil paper with good water absorption performance, the calligraphy and painting can be kept safe and the life of calligraphy and painting can be prolonged.
