What is the difference between Chinese painting and oil painting in structure?

Introduction: Chinese painting and western oil painting have different influences on the world, but their cultural backgrounds and ways of thinking are completely different. Chinese painting generally has a long history, mainly represented by landscapes, flowers and birds, while western oil painting is mainly manifested in two aspects: abstraction and concreteness, so it seems that the composition is very different. Next, Bian Xiao will analyze with you the differences between Chinese painting and oil painting in composition.

First, the composition of Chinese painting

Chinese painting is generally composed of six characters: A, Shen, You, Xu, Ze and Zhi. Type A is about reality and imagination, so it is more agile, but at the same time it is more aggressive. The font is relatively stable, but it lacks vitality. The application form is generally empty, and the middle can be calm and flexible. Beard modeling needs to be combined with calmness and elegance, which belongs to the left. Then the composition of the glyph is more beautiful, and the zigzag, also known as the S-shaped composition, can best reflect people's artistic conception.

Second, the composition of oil painting

In the process of oil painting creation, it is generally divided into relatively simple geometric figures, mostly triangular V-rings and other patterns. At the same time, there will also be some S-shaped and horizontal and vertical lines. Triangles are relatively stable, so they are generally small at the top and large at the bottom. This kind of composition can remind people of the stability of architecture, while the V shape will give people a feeling of vacillation, but as long as it is used flexibly, it can give people a lively and dynamic composition form, and the circle can make people feel mature. S-shaped composition is fluid and full of changes. Horizontal lines will give people a sense of vastness, while vertical lines will give people a sense of security. At the same time, there are some square compositions, diagonal compositions and so on.

Three. abstract

Chinese painting has a long history. Different from other paintings, Chinese painting is generally divided into two categories: freehand brushwork and meticulous painting, and pays more attention to scattered perspective. Grasping from the concept depends on the body and mind. The only concept in western modern art is abstract art, and the meaning of abstract art is relatively broad. Moreover, people's aesthetic feelings and techniques will have different effects on composition, and at the same time, the development of traditional culture and technology will also have a more or less impact on composition.
