How to match watercolor with dry painting and wet painting? What else is there?

Basic techniques of watercolor painting;

1, dry coating: dry coating refers to the first pass after the color is dried, followed by the second and third passes. Using dry painting method, due to the overlapping of layers, it will produce rich hierarchical effects, making the performance object clear, true and in-depth. This method is good at expressing light and shadow effects. However, when painting, the pen is still required to be full and moist to prevent the color from being dry and lifeless. Dry painting is generally divided into "dry connection method" and "overlapping color method"

2. Wet painting: Wet painting means that the paper is always wet in the process of painting. If some places are dry, you can wet them before brushing them. Wet painting is a basic and important painting method of watercolor painting. The penetration, blooming and dripping of watercolor can make the color get a very natural, soft and moist effect, which fully embodies the characteristics of watercolor painting, such as transparency, fluency and lightness. It is difficult for beginners to master. Its shortcoming is that it is difficult to describe the object in depth at multiple levels. Wet painting can generally be divided into wet paper method, wet paste method, infiltration method and ink splashing method.

(4) Special techniques of watercolor painting: (It can enrich the expressive force of watercolor painting and promote the innovation and development of watercolor painting art ...)

1, salt sprinkling method: when the colored drawing paper is not dry, sprinkle salt. When the salt melts, the color will melt, and after drying, a snowflake-like texture will be produced. The darker the picture, the stronger the effect.

2. Waxing method: lightly apply wax (candle stick, crayon, oil painting stick, rubber water, etc.). ) Where background color and blank space are needed. In this way, the waxing gesture should not be too heavy, and the point, drawing, drawing and wiping should be changed.

3. Precipitation method: Some colors in watercolor painting will precipitate after drying, which requires that there should be enough water when coloring, so that the small particles in the color can flow and precipitate on the paper. This method is light in color and easy to produce results. Such as dark blue, ochre and other colors. 4. Suction washing method: on fine-grained watercolor paper, when the color is not dry, use rice paper, sponge, paper towel, cleaning pen, etc. To absorb color, you can express smoke, clouds, waves and so on. 5, sand skin method: gently polish the dry painting with fine sandpaper, you will get a vivid and natural effect.

6. Scraper method: Before the watercolor color is dry, you can scrape out branches, boat cables and other lines with a palette knife and a knife.

7. Washing method: Washing the color of the picture with a pen will make the color of the picture lighter and thinner.

8. Printing and dyeing method: different fabrics (such as coarse linen and fine linen) and crumpled paper are dipped in white paper or wet color layer, printed, flattened and patted to produce special effects.

9. Drip method: When the color layer of the picture is not dry, spray, sprinkle and drip water on it, and the water drops will wash away the color, resulting in mottled effect. This method can be used to show rainy scenes. Beginners should not blindly pursue the special effects of watercolor painting, but should pay attention to mastering the basic techniques, and only on the basis of mastering the basic techniques can they cope skillfully.

Also, three. Waxing method

Before painting, lightly coat the paper with candle oil, which is called waxing. In order to enrich the expressive force of art, a layer of white wax is often gently coated on the four corners or somewhere of the picture, which makes the painting place difficult to be colored and produces a mottled texture, so as to achieve the effect of sticking the virtual to the real and promoting the real with the virtual.

When painting, take a white candle, about three fingers wide, lie flat on the paper when wiping, and wipe the paper evenly and gently repeatedly. The drawing board should be flat, and the force should be light but not heavy.

Another method is to use an oil painting stick. It is also embedded with a few oil pastels before painting.

On the whole, the oil pastel color is sandwiched between watercolors, and the effect is remarkable and jumping. Just because of jumping, there is a problem of color harmony with water. Therefore, the color of oil pastels is generally only used as a small ornament of the picture, which is lively and colorful. Excessive use will destroy the artistic effect of watercolor painting.

In the process of painting, if you feel that the color of the oil pastel is too bright and jumping, and it is too open with the surrounding environment, you can rub it with your fingers a few times when the watercolor is not dry, so that the oil paint is slightly close to the watercolor, and then wet it again.

4. Rubbing is a technique between no strokes and printmaking. Generally speaking, it is sprinkled on a flat glass plate (with white cloth or white paper under it) and watered or painted with watercolor. Water has many colors, which can be connected, permeated or untouched. In short, you can pour, smear, squeeze, sprinkle, sprinkle and drip at will. When the water is dry, cover it with colored paper and gently press it up, down, left and right to recolor the whole picture. When you feel that there is nothing missing, lift it to two corners and lay it flat on the drawing board, and an infinite and unpredictable picture will basically be formed. Of course, since colors are naturally mixed, it is also accidental and experimental, and it is possible to fail one after another or succeed at one stroke.

The Warrior shows the mysterious and simple beauty of ancient culture. First, paint the picture with white wax and light green oil pastels, and then rubbing. Make the colors of the picture scarlet, khaki and light green. Finally, add the image of a soldier.

Symphony, music and painting-the sad symphony uses another kneading technique. The author takes bright gray background and smooth undulating lines as his main artistic language. After the above two colors are finished, apply very clean light gray and thin pink on the wrinkled transparent polyester paper. Using its irregular outline, the transparent paper is immediately pressed on the screen, so that the original wavy line is shrouded in a foggy atmosphere, and the meaning seems more vivid and subtle.

5. In order to pursue the transparent, light, bright and free artistic style, the traditional color clip watercolor painting has the saying that white powder and black are forbidden. For beginners, strict basic training is quite reasonable, which can avoid the disadvantages of messy and black pictures. But in fact, British watercolor painting has never rejected the use of white powder. There is a simple reason. Opaque water pink is mixed with transparent watercolors, which makes the purity of color expand from single transparency to transparency, translucency and opacity, greatly enriching the vocabulary of painting color and enhancing the expressive force and appeal of art.

There are two cutting methods: one is that most of the pictures are watercolors, and a small number of brighter places are pink with water. After the whole frame is completed, gouache is carefully added to make the whole picture full of contrast between shade and thickness.

Another method is to use gouache watercolor at the same time, or to use Chinese painting and acrylic color at the same time. Because the pigment with powder is heavier, it is easier to control the shape shaping when wet coating. Pay attention to the deep color. In order to avoid powder, it is generally not appropriate to mix white powder, whether it is watercolor white or gouache white.
