Share the meticulous skills that Chinese painting has to learn in a simple and easy-to-understand way.

The first is "waterline" technology

When we meet the edges or lines of an object in meticulous painting, we often use the method of leaving bright edges to distinguish local colors or keep lines or reflect the thickness of the object. This bright edge is called waterline. At the same time, keeping the waterline can better reflect the unique decorative interest of meticulous Chinese painting.

The bright ribbon near the main reinforcement on the peony leaves shown in the picture is waterline, which can bring good decorative beauty and increase the thickness of the leaves.

Second, the "dyeing" technology.

A method of wet dyeing with brush strokes, which uses a colored pen to dry the micro-wrinkles, and then uses a water pen to break the original color, which is often used to deal with broken leaf edges.

The leaf edge of the song painting "Dead Tree Worm" shown in the above picture is damaged, so it is more suitable to dye it.

Third, "swimming dyeing" technology.

When the ink pen rotates around the color block and dyes a piece of color around the lady's cheek, this method is often used in meticulous painting of peony, especially in the coloring of the root of inverted petals. The dark red of the first few peony petals shown in the above picture is concentrated in the middle of the petals and gradually fades from the middle to the surrounding. This is the swimming dyeing method.

Fourth, the "spot dyeing" technology.

Dip in different shades with a brushwork close to freehand brushwork, and give the picture a touch of agility. When dealing with the background or small flowers, we often use this method to draw the slopes and weeds shown in the picture, that is, the spot dyeing method. This method is vivid and natural, with a certain freehand brushwork, which can make the picture look vivid and dull.

Five, "dyeing" technology

Use two or more strokes dipped in different colors to draw objects with different shades, and then use a fountain pen or another colored pen to dye the colors together when wet, which is very common in boneless painting or the processing of some objects with empty backgrounds.

The foreground lotus leaf shown in the picture is dyed light brown, cyan and dark green. This method is used properly, the picture is moist and natural, and the charm is vivid.

Six, "powder" technology

An important way to point stamens is to dip the long-pointed pen in pink yellow, or stick it in slightly, with a very strong color concentration (the feeling of dripping is the most suitable). At the same time, erect the pen tip and slowly point out the shape of the stamens. When it is wet, the color will be about 1 mm higher than the paper, and when it is dry, it will form a visual effect with high sides and concave middle, which is very stereoscopic.

The stamen of plum blossom shown in the picture is made by the method of standing pollen, and the stamen has a good sense of volume and visual effect. This effect can't be displayed if you just click with ordinary pink and yellow.

Seven, "color" technique

Modern meticulous painting mostly adopts texture technique. First, a certain color is painted on the cooked propaganda, and when the background color is not dry, it is washed into other colors or clear water or collophane while wet. Using the blending of water and color, a mottled and disorderly natural texture beauty is produced. Often used to draw old cadres and slopes.

The veteran cadres shown in the picture are divided into stone paintings, four-color washing, heavy ink, fine hair and so on. Before the color dries, then drop water. This colorful effect is caused by the washing technology.

Eight, "silk cotton" technique

Detailed bird feather treatment techniques are commonly used, such as dipping long hook lines in ink or color or white powder. According to the direction of bird feathers, draw one by one. This method is rigorous, delicate, true and natural, and it is one of the basic skills of meticulous flower-and-bird painting. The feather part of the sparrow shown in the picture is silk wool method, also known as "single brush silk wool method"

Nine, "hair" technique

The common methods of fine brushwork bird feathers treatment are: flattening the nib of a stiff brush into a flat brush shape, dipping the nib in water, and drawing a group according to the growth structure of bird feathers. This method is suitable for drawing medium-sized birds.

The myna's head, back, waist, chest and abdomen shown in the picture are all made by chopping hair, also known as "chopping hair"
