I. Introduction. As a treasure of traditional Chinese culture, Chinese painting has evolved over the millennium and has gradually formed a unique artistic style and aesthetic concept. Among them, the "Six Laws", as the basic principle of Chinese painting, has always attracted the attention and follow-up of painters. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the specific embodiment of the "Six Laws" in the creation of Chinese painting, in order to provide some enlightenment for the development and innovation of Chinese painting art.
2. Overview of the "Six Laws" of Chinese Painting.
The "Six Methods" of Chinese painting include: vivid rhyme, bone method with brush, object pictogram, color with class, business location, and transfer molding. These six laws are the basic rules of Chinese painting, which are independent of each other and interrelated, and together constitute the overall aesthetic system of Chinese painting.
Liu** put forward a preliminary and complete theoretical framework of painting - from the expression of the inner spirit of the object, the expression of the painter's emotions and evaluation of the object, to the use of the brush to depict the shape, structure and color of the object, as well as the composition and copying of the work, etc., in short, all aspects of creation and circulation are summarized.
3. The embodiment of the "Six Laws" of Chinese painting.
1.The atmosphere is vivid.
Vivid charm is the core of Chinese painting creation, and it is also the highest state of Chinese painting art. It requires the painter to express the spiritual connotation and vitality of things with vivid brushstrokes in the creative process. The vivid works can not only convey the artist's perception of all things in nature, but also make the viewer resonate and feel the rich emotions contained in the work. "Vividness" has been the highest standard in Chinese painting since ancient times, and painters of all dynasties have also followed it with their hearts, and the charm has expanded from the original emphasis on figure painting to flower and bird landscape painting. In the field of painting for more than 1,000 years, it has served as the most important artistic principle in Chinese painting theory.
In Chinese painting, there is a high requirement for "artistic conception", and there is a very close relationship between "vividness" and "artistic conception". In the process of creation, the artist integrates emotions into specific objects, so that the depicted objects can convey and express their emotions and intentions, use their own brushes to express their emotions, and achieve a high degree of integration between feelings and environments through the depiction of time and space, which is also the realm pursued by the artist.
2.Bone method with a pen.
Bone brushing refers to the painter's use of different brushstrokes and ink colors in the process of painting to express the bone structure and movement of objects. The bone method requires the painter to be proficient in various brushstrokes, such as outline, rubbing, dot dyeing, etc., as well as using the shade of ink to make the picture rich in layering and three-dimensionality.
The word "bone" is a figurative concept, and "bone", "bone force" and "wind bone" are used metaphors to illustrate the uprightness, decisiveness and external manifestations of people's inner character.
Bone method with a pen. It means that the pen should be strong, have backbone, and the heart should follow the pen, and the intention is to put the pen first. Specifically, it is lifting, pressing, shunning, reversing, side, concealing, fast, slow, etc. Use the pen to be happy, pay attention to the press, follow the reverse, fast and slow, turn, positive side, hidden dew and other changes.
3.Corresponding object pictograms.
Pictographs refer to the realistic depiction of natural objects according to the form and characteristics of natural objects in the creative process. This rule requires the painter to have a keen sense of observation and the ability to grasp the image of objects, so that the work has high artistic value.
4.Coloring with class.
Coloring with the class refers to the painter's use of corresponding colors to depict according to the categories and characteristics of objects in the creative process. This rule requires the painter to be familiar with the attributes of color and the rules of collocation, so as to make the picture rich in color and harmonious and unified.
5.Business location.
Business location refers to the painter's reasonable layout and arrangement of the position and spatial relationship of each element in the picture in the creative process. This rule requires the painter to have a good aesthetic concept and composition ability, so that the layout of the picture is rigorous and rhythmic.
6.Transfer and mold.
Transmission and imitation refers to the painter's learning from ancient famous paintings and natural scenery in the form of copying and sketching in the process of creation, absorbing their essence, and enriching their painting skills and artistic accomplishment. This law requires painters to constantly broaden their horizons and improve their painting level in order to make their works have high artistic value.
IV. Conclusions. The "Six Laws" of Chinese painting are the basic principles of Chinese painting creation, which embodies the core values of Chinese painting art. Through the "Six Laws", we can find that in the creation of Chinese painting, painters need to follow these rules, so as to express their perception of all things in nature and create works full of vitality and artistic value. At the same time, we should also realize that in the process of inheriting and carrying forward the art of Chinese painting, painters still need to continue to innovate in order to adapt to the development of the times and keep the art of Chinese painting alive.
