On the Design of Interior Decoration Patterns

This paper analyzes the historical and technical characteristics of watercolor painting development, and holds that contemporary watercolor painting, under the trend of diversification, allows its development to flow freely like watercolor features themselves, showing its decorative charm. At the same time, it is pointed out that no matter what form it takes, the aestheticism of watercolor painting tends to strive for perfection in water and color from the creative point of view, showing the characteristics of decoration and independence.

First, the development status of watercolor painting

Watercolor painting, as an independent painting, has a history of nearly 500 years since it came into being. Her development in China was tortuous, and it was not until the 1980s that she gradually recovered and flourished. Watercolor exhibitions and watercolor painting newcomers have sprung up like mushrooms after rain, and their scenes and development speed are well known. But China's watercolor painting is called a small painting compared with other paintings. To some extent, it is because watercolor paintings are generally short in length, and the themes are mostly about beautiful natural scenery, and there are fewer major events and historical themes.

With the influence of western modernist painting, the boundaries between various kinds of paintings are gradually weakening, and some watercolor paintings have begun to pursue eclecticism in form, planarization in space, simplicity, indulgence and vividness in color. Watercolor, with its own advantages of portability and diversity, shows its relaxed, decorative value and charm in the process of gradual change, indicating its decorative and independent character. We can't take a transitional "analysis and division" attitude towards watercolor painting. In order to make it a "big painting", we will weaken the unique charm and advantages of watercolor painting, that is, the decoration presented by randomness, improvisation and ethereal. Watercolor painting, whether copied or expressed, is always decorative. Some realistic works, in particular, have a strong tendency of aestheticism in their creative views. On the basis of reappearing reality, according to the needs of content and the principle of beauty, some factors in modeling are emphasized, and the close combination of water and color greatly enhances the decorative nature of watercolor painting.

Second, the creative perspective of decoration

Artistic creation, no matter what form it takes, must proceed from the viewpoint. The study and discussion of natural scenery has always been an important subject of watercolor painting. The rise of watercolor painting is also closely related to landscape painting. In Britain in the17th century, with the drawing of topographic and landscape maps and the growth of aesthetic interest in natural scenery, watercolor painters expanded their observation and understanding of nature and life, and exercised their ability to paint scenes with pens. Judging from the development of British watercolor landscape painting in the whole18th century, even if it did not reach the deep level of ideology, it was a simple aesthetic concept from the beginning. Even in France in the18th century, although painters were mainly people, with landscapes as the background and foil, and even portraits and lives of civilians, they still had a strong, happy and cheerful rococo spirit. In Germany, watercolor painting is only a secondary art form, but after several centuries of agitation, after Diu Lei, from 16 to18th century, its art form was also the decorative pages of picture books and reduced portraits and landscapes, and watercolor painting has become a common medium for ordinary middle class to paint, appreciate and collect life fragments. The reason why watercolor painting attracts the attention of all countries is that1the idealists in the enlightenment period in the 8th century expected to improve the moral level of human nature through the spread of beauty (quoted from A Brief Introduction to the Origin of Watercolor Painting).

/kloc-the spiritual trend of watercolor painting in the 0 th and 9 th centuries is generally consistent with that of oil painters. For example, in France at the end of 19, Gauguin thought was the center, and the ideal spirit since the Renaissance was integrated into mystery and decoration. Adopt graphic painting skills and actively strengthen the subjectivity and high effect of color, pay attention to fantasy and in-depth spiritual activities. Painting in the 20th century, Cezanne triggered a new order, from relying on nature to paying attention to the expression of people's thoughts, which broadened the expression field. The brisk melody of watercolor painting represents free and unrestrained, unlimited extension, which actually provides a broad opportunity for the development of watercolor painting. It is an indisputable fact that watercolor painting in the 20th century has found its own value, often surpassing other painting materials and showing its unique excellence.

It can be seen that no matter what form it takes, watercolor painting has a strong aestheticism tendency from the beginning, and the decorative nature of its creative views is gradually emerging in the continuous development.

Thirdly, watercolor plays a very important role in the decoration of watercolor painting.

Water is the most important medium in watercolor painting. Casual, impromptu and ethereal decoration is closely related to the medium it uses-water. Under the influence of Chinese and western modern painting, the further development of watercolor painting and the variability of paper selection are well known. Because each different watercolor paper will have different painting effects under the influence of water and color, and besides watercolor paper, watercolor painting on other kinds of paper will also have other unexpected effects, but the only constant is water; The selection and use of pigments are also more extensive, because many kinds of pigments can be mixed with water. Water is the key to the decoration of watercolor, which can flow freely and improvise to produce ethereal effect. There are many skills in catching water.

Turner, a great painter who better affirmed and showed the purity and independence of water and color, brought the characteristics of water and color to the extreme in the application of techniques, and various watercolor pigments blended with each other or used alone, becoming the most freely expressed symbol in the history of British watercolor painting. In his works such as Clouds and Wet Sand, we can see what he has achieved: the combination of water and color has a calligraphy-like beauty of ink painting and hazy beauty. Constable's work "Woman by the Window" uses charcoal pen and watercolor, with no rich color changes, low tone, concise light and shadow, and proper control of water, which makes people feel sunny, leisurely and quiet. /kloc-in the 9th century, Europeans and western Renye Fang were influenced by oriental art. The combination of western techniques and the natural expression of oriental ink painting is an idea that pays attention to the rhythm and charm of watercolor. Clee, a magician who is famous for playing with watercolor, seems to be the lifeblood of transparent watercolor. He is not in a hurry to fix the color on the paper, but combines the color itself with appropriate moisture, which has a greater chance of free and independent development and can make it flow and stop beautifully.

Watercolor painting is mainly dry and wet. As far as the transparent pigments in watercolor painting are concerned, the layers of transparent painting techniques and the "ink accumulation" in Chinese painting both refer to repeated coloring after drying, and the so-called "breaking" means repeated coloring when wet. Moreover, since ancient times, many watercolor painters have mixed transparent watercolors with opaque watercolors, which shows that there is no fixed method for shades of dry and wet colors. The so-called light and heavy, thick and uneven, wet but not sloppy-its rhyme lies. The thick in the light, the light in the thick, the ethereal in the thick, the thick in the ethereal, not light or uneven. The casual, impromptu and ethereal decorative effect is self-evident at this time. Of course, we can't be too obsessed with watercolor, pursue the superficial joyful effect, or even be too superstitious about the fun of watercolor and the role of this medium, so we can't pay attention to or express more and more internal factors.

It can be seen that water is an indispensable painting factor, and mastering and controlling the quantity, dryness and wetness, lightness and darkness of water color is the key to reflect the Excellence and decoration of watercolor painting, and the ingenious combination of water and color increases its charm. Especially after entering the19th century, westerners have been influenced by oriental art, such as the beauty of China's lines and the artistic conception of Yining, the flat color of Japan and the mysterious atmosphere of the East, which all give good inspiration to watercolor painting. Watercolor painting also began to pursue eclecticism in form, complanation in space, simplicity, indulgence and vividness in color. Up to now, watercolor painting has absorbed rich nutrition to better reflect its decoration.

Kelly is a genius in painting, with magical creativity. He believes that life and artistic creation are widely absorbed and digested, and then each produces its own personal artistic works with different factors. He can raise the significance of watercolor to the same height as the potential of watercolor media, and play to the infinite limit, using flexible thinking and means to create an infinite new realm. In other words, we can't "analyze and divide" the development of watercolor painting, and "big painting species" and "small painting species" are not important. It is important to give full play to the advantages of watercolor painting and gradually feel it from the initial point of view to the process of creation.
