What's the difference between cartoon image and traditional painting?

First of all, I think the meaning categories of these two words are a little different. Traditional painting refers to a part of the whole painting form, and the word cartoon image is more inclined to an image type expressed by visual art, so it is more reliable to compare comics with traditional painting.

Then briefly explain the difference between the two. Traditional painting mainly refers to the painting forms with a long history in China, the West and other parts of the world, such as China's oil paintings, prints, murals, Chinese paintings and lacquer paintings. Because of its long history, this kind of painting often has strict formal requirements and norms, and mainly plays a role as an orthodox pure art form for people to appreciate.

As an art form, comics originated in modern Europe, and its history is much shorter than that of traditional painting. It has many meanings in itself. Mainly comics and cartoons. In a narrow sense, it refers to American and European cartoons and cartoons (children-oriented humorous cartoons). Broadly speaking, it refers to comics, cartoons and animations that have their own styles in various countries and regions and will change constantly with the development of the times. Generally, various images are shaped by induction, exaggeration and deformation. It is closer to popular culture and spread by modern media. Its form is lively, novel and diverse, without strict norms, and it is deeply loved by children.

Simply put, animation is the product of modern culture, more lively and fashionable, mainly spread through modern media, more secular. Traditional painting, on the other hand, has a long history, is relatively simple and rigorous, and most of it can be regarded as elegant art, and the means of communication mainly depends on art galleries.

In addition, traditional painting methods can also be used to express cartoon images. Attention refers to "image", which is mainly seen in modern paintings in the East and the West. For example, some modern artists express cartoon images in the form of oil paintings. But traditional painting is only a means of expression here.

I am not majoring in art history, so it is inevitable that my expression is inaccurate, which is for the landlord's reference only.
