If you know how to draw, will it be faster to learn watercolor again?

1. There is a difference between the painting method of gongbi painting and watercolor painting

Gongbi painting, also known as "fine brush painting", belongs to the category of Chinese painting techniques, and gongbi painting is symmetrical with "freehand painting". Gongbi painting belongs to a neat and meticulous type of painting, such as the courtyard painting of the Song Dynasty and the figure painting of Qiu Ying in the Ming Dynasty.

Watercolor painting is a painting method of mixing transparent pigments with water, referred to as watercolor, because the color is transparent, one layer of color covering another layer can produce a special effect, but mixing too many colors or covering too much will make the color dirty, and the water dries quickly, so watercolor painting is not suitable for making large-scale works, suitable for making fresh and bright small paintings such as landscapes.

Second, there is a difference in the characteristics of gongbi painting and watercolor painting

In the long-term historical development, Gongbi painting has established a set of strict technical system, thus forming the unique style and appearance of this painting style, and its characteristics are summarized as follows:

1. Line modeling is the characteristic of Chinese painting techniques, and it is also the foundation and backbone of gongbi painting. The requirements of gongbi painting for the line are neat, delicate and rigorous. Generally, there are more center pens.

2. Mainly based on inherent colors, the general colors are gorgeous, calm, bright and elegant, with a unified tone, and have a strong aesthetic interest in Chinese national colors.

Watercolor painting, by itself, has two basic characteristics: first, most of the pictures have a transparent visual sense; The second is the fluidity of water in the painting process. As a result, watercolor painting is different from other types of painting in terms of appearance and creative techniques.

The transparency of the pigment gives the watercolor a clear surface effect, while the fluidity of the water creates a vivid, natural and free taste.

3. There is a difference between the paper of gongbi painting and watercolor painting

Gongbi painting is made of cooked rice paper or cooked silk, which is made of raw rice paper or raw silk brushed with a certain proportion of glue alum water. Its properties are impermeable. At present, there are many varieties of cooked rice paper, such as Qingshui calligraphy and painting, ice and snow Xuan, calligraphy and painting notes, cicada wing papers, mica notes, etc.

The above cooked rice paper is thin and thick, and the glue alum water is thick and light.

Watercolor paper is usually made of cotton, linen, cotton rags or wood pulp and other materials, wood pulp paper is very cheap, it is easy to deteriorate, yellow and chip if left for too long, and is usually used for sketching exercises.

A good watercolor paper should be made of cotton, linen or rags, and its composition will be indicated on the paper itself or in the sample catalog. The pH is neutral. And there is a watermark of the label, which is the guarantee of excellent quality.

Use a pen to be strong, and the thickness of the lines should be consistent.

There's so much to say, you go to the China Gongbi Forum, there are a lot of things you're looking for.

First of all, the material reproduction tool is different.

Gongbi painting: ink, Chinese painting pigments, rice paper.

Watercolor: watercolor paint, watercolor paper.

Pens, sometimes shared.

In addition, the fine brush painting is more particular about the use of the pen and the outline of the line. The color should be covered and dyed, and no water stains can be left, and there is no dark part.

Watercolor painting is less particular, there can be water stains, dark parts, can have outlines or not, and if you go deeper, you have to experience it yourself.

Gongbi paintings are mostly seen in Chinese paintings, such as Gongbi flowers and birds, and Gongbi figures.

Watercolor painting can be used in landscape sketching, landscape sketching, and character sketching.

Gongbi refers to the technique of painting, and watercolor refers to the tools used for painting.

Watercolor painting is not related to the painting technique of gongbi painting, the use of pigments and painting tools.

Gongbi painting needs to be painted with white gouache paint.

You can choose mineral material pigment, the molecular structure of this pigment is very stable, generally not allowed to change color, like the traditional bought pearl silver, cinnabar, stone green, stone green, two green, head blue, are very stable; You can also use water-soluble pigments, such as watercolor paints, which will be more transparent.

It is best to modulate and remove the glue before using the pigment, because the pigment contains gum, and soaking it in warm water can withdraw the glue in the pigment, which will be more conducive to the painting effect.

If it is a light color brush, it is only suitable to use plant pigments, ochre and zinc white, and no mineral pigments.

Commonly used plant pigments are: cyan, garcinia cambogia, cochineal, titanium blue, bright red, magenta (eosin).

If it's a heavy color pen, then there is no constraint. As long as it is a Chinese painting pigment, any color can be used. Of course, many modern painters also try the pigments in watercolor and gouache, but those colors are best used with caution.

Otherwise, it will be troublesome as soon as the frame fades.

Tools: enough pencils, cooked rice paper, drawing boards, ink, color, pencils, sketches, etc. It's time-consuming to draw.

Be patient. Self-publishing is very difficult to grasp the essentials. Books are generally very superficial.

You should find a teacher who understands Chinese painting to teach you. I'm from Tangshan, so I don't know about the situation in Changsha, but there are very few training classes, so you can go to the local school to find an experienced art teacher. Good luck.

You don't need to frame any kind of paint.

But if you put it on the table.

There must be a choice.

Framing should avoid dao re-dissolution.

You should want to get Rongla for this.

Choose something like ink.

It can be tolerated with water, but if it dries, it is very stable and cannot tolerate water.

That's why you have to look for such pigments.

Such as Chinese painting paints.

Although the pigment is stable, it is not a brush.

Gouache and watercolor paints are not good.

Hehe, you can try it yourself.

Chinese painting pigments are the first choice, but there are differences in use.

Watercolor painting powder heavy, water heavy, depending on what kind of paper you use, if you use raw rice paper, strong water absorption, water is easy to dissolve, not suitable for brushwork, suitable for freehand landscape painting; It is not suitable to spread out when it encounters water, you can use a fine brush, but it is best to use less powder and more water for the skin and clothes, and everything else is fine.

Painters come to paint and now use ready-made Chinese painting paints, art supply stores or cultural use.

You can buy it in the storeWatercolor painting can be substituted, but not ideal, Chinese painting pigment is more delicate, less gum, very suitable for the painting of fine brushwork. Chinese Gongbi painting is painted with tools and materials such as brushes, cooked xuan or silk, and Chinese painting paints.

Painting workers bai strokes are generally good with Chinese painting du pigments! For example, cinnabar, garcinia cambogia.

zhi, ochre, and so on these pigments can be dao! Watercolor, gouache back, oil painting is mineral.

Answer: Stone pigments! Watercolor gouache belongs to the Western painting series, and Chinese painting pigments are specialized in painting brushstrokes, so the effect of painting is different!Gongbi painting is a kind of Chinese painting!

Therefore, the tools used are different for different styles, and the Chinese painting pigments are used to paint gongbi paintings and watercolor paintings, and the Chinese painting pigments are good!

Of course, with Chinese painting paint, the watercolor is more transparent and thinner.

The gouache is thicker.

Personally, I think that Chinese painting pigments are somewhere in between.

Yes, the Chinese painting pigments are relatively coarse. Gouache and watercolor paint will be finer, so some people will like to use it.

However, it should be noted that in the adjustment of the shade, as well as the filtration of the gum, don't be afraid of trouble, I generally use it to squeeze out the pigment and add water to stir, and then use paper to suck out the glue on the surface after precipitation. Then commonly used keep it moist at all times.

Need to try more.

The first floor, go with peace of mind).

No, otherwise the color will be shaded when the painting is framed, and the painting will be spent. Chinese painting paints must be used!

No, because watercolor, gouache pigment and Chinese painting paint are thicker, Chinese painting is made on rice paper, if you use drier paint, it will affect the picture effect!

It can be used with caution in a small part! A little bit is OK, but it's easy to run flowers when framing! It's better not to use it.

Let's first study what Chinese painting is, right?

Chinese painting pigments are enough: there are generally 12 colors.

Oil paintings are the best-sellers, but Chinese paintings are the most profitable. Compared with the two, the subject matter of oil painting is richer, and the size can be changed with the requirements, so the range of decoration is wider, for example, any small fast food restaurant can get an oil painting to adjust the tone, but you don't often use Chinese painting, because Chinese painting is more in pursuit of artistic conception, and the tone is more elegant. Why is it said that Chinese painting is more profitable, because there are too few high-quality products......If you really create a high-quality Chinese painting and shoot the right way, you can be very leisurely in a few years, hehe, just time to play with oil painting.
