The development course of ink painting

Ink painting, as its name implies, is a kind of painting with water and ink as the main tools, color as the supplement, paper and silk as the main tools to give full play to and express artistic conception. Compared with other western painting forms, ink painting is the most distinctive and has been passed down in China, Japan, South Korea and other eastern countries. Unlike ordinary elements, ink painting has no outline. Ink painting is naturally rendered on rice paper, and every scene is an excellent ink painting. The movements and expressions of the characters are beautiful and smart, the background of the splash-ink landscape is bold and magnificent, and the feminine style is full of poetry. It embodies the aesthetics of "similarity and dissimilarity" in Chinese painting and has a far-reaching artistic conception. Ink painting has a very long history of development, with Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties as the peak of China ink painting. Ink painting emphasizes nature, interest, eclecticism and freehand brushwork, and is increasingly welcomed by designers.

In fact, whether for the ancients or modern people, ink painting must have the connotation of * * * that we can understand in history, which is also the eternal charm that ink painting has been pursuing in design. The use of space here, the relationship between reality and reality, and the relationship between yin and yang are all worthy of designers' consideration. When designing ink painting, we can consider leaving a large area of blank space, just like the aesthetic realm of black in Chinese painting white, which is also one of the manifestations of China culture. The color, inscription, seal, texture of brush and ink in Chinese painting and the charm and rhythm of calligraphy all enrich the modeling language of ink graphic design.
