    Chinese female painters, when you think about it, don't seem to have any names that can remain in your mind. There are also reasons why there are very few female painters, and the main reason is that women have a low status and have no pursuits and hobbies of their own.

    The status of women in China is relatively low, so most women follow the arranged route, learn how to be a lady, learn some skills that girls must have, such as embroidery, boiling tea, these things, even the school is a very rich and famous family can send girls to study. When he grows up, he will marry out, and his husband and children will be a good wife and mother. Just take care of the trivial things at home, don't let your husband worry about it, and at the same time take care of your parents-in-law, so most of the time you spend this time, and you don't have much time to develop anything else.

    Moreover, there are some risks associated with the profession of a painter. Boys generally study hard and go to the imperial examination system to become officials, so, girls have to invest in learning to paint, what if they learn to learn what to do if they suddenly don't like it, what to do if they can't get married after learning, this is something that the ancients had to consider, but, in the final analysis, it is because the ancient people felt that girls did not need to invest like this, sooner or later they had to get married, and in the end, it was someone else's family.

    Moreover, before learning to draw, it was not possible to draw well just by relying on her own skills, so she had to hire a teacher, but in ancient times, there were not many women who studied hard and asked for teachers, and besides, there were very few teachers who taught painting at that time, after all, there was no market. So these several difficulties add up, for a girl who wants to learn to paint, it has basically become an impossible thing, being able to have a good husband and children is the mainstream, and painting has become the mainstream direction of society.

    In the past, the social status of girls was very low, and it was moral to pay attention to women's lack of talent, and even if women studied, painting was also a way for them to cultivate their sentiments, and it would not become a way to become famous, and many women were trapped at home, so there were few female painters.

    I think this has something to do with the status of women since ancient times, in the early years, women had a low status and no opportunity to learn, even if they could study, they were only aristocratic women, and they couldn't show their heads after studying, so naturally there would not be so many female painters.

    Passers-by were speechless by some of the answers, so they couldn't help but answer.

    First of all, make it clear that you can't afford to learn painting without money, so you can search for the pigment raw materials needed for Western painting and Chinese painting.

    The word "talent" below only means "can learn to draw well" and has no other meaning.

    Situations where women are socially stressed.

    For the sake of simplification, the following "have resources" means that you have money and can withstand social pressure) 1Talented, no resources, family pressure, no development opportunities.

    2.There are talents, resources, family pressure--- no development opportunities There are development opportunities, family pressure becomes smaller, individuals can develop, leaving works with their own names There are development opportunities, and the creative naming rights are robbed by men There are development opportunities, but history is not recorded Now you understand the arrangement of some books, and what you see does not necessarily represent the way the world is.

    3.Talented, resourced, free of family pressure--- with development opportunities--- become one of those few people who can no longer continue to create for various reasons.

    Only two of the seven roads can be walked, and the finer ones are needless to say.

    Personally, I don't think my answer is good, but at least it makes some sense.

    In fact, if you look at some mysteries, you can understand why the proportion of female painters is low.

    Because women belong to the hedonistic race, hard-working women will eventually regret their lives. Therefore, women are not suitable to be painters, and being a painter means giving up the nature of women.

    This is mainly due to the fact that the development of women was limited in that era, and no matter where they were, women could only stay at home, so there were very few female painters.

    The biggest reason for the low proportion of female painters is that most female painters lack innovative thinking, are unable to create genres that are different from others, and are difficult to excel in traditional genres.

    Many of the contemporary paintings we see in art exhibitions, or the classic paintings we see in art exhibition halls, are mainly women, and one of the most direct reasons is that most of the famous painters are men.

    For a long time, masculinism was dominant, and women were oppressed, had a low status, had no autonomy, and had no right to education. Therefore, in the popular mind, it is normal for men to appreciate women's bodies. And to put it mildly, "lustful" is the nature of men.

    Of course, the "lustful" mentioned here does not have any derogatory meaning, it is the effect of hormones. It is understandable to appreciate beautiful people, and even to have a certain desire. In artistic creation, the pursuit of beauty leads them to create wonderful works.

    Aesthetic quality has a great impact on the quality of artistic creation, and the main reason why artists like to paint women is, of course, beauty. Women are the embodiment of truth, goodness and beauty, and under the artist's pen, their graceful posture, exquisite curves, elegant movements, plump postures, and well-proportioned proportions are pleasing to the eye and full of beauty. Artists strive to create the most beautiful works in their eyes, hoping to bring this beauty to life and reality in front of all audiences.

    Of course, there are also radical thinkers who believe that women are born in a weak position in society, have no spirit of resistance, are the prey of the strong, and are the tools of the strong to pursue the supremacy of power, which can naturally arouse their possessiveness. Although there is some truth in this statement, it is not advisable to have the idea of discriminating against women.

    In fact, using women as creative materials can well express the beauty of art, and can also represent the true and pure spiritual pursuit of human beings, and reflect the value of life.

    There are several factors. The first is influenced by religion and the belief that women are the mother of all things and the source of good things. Therefore, paintings are used to express appreciation and praise for them.

    The second is that the woman's body itself has the beauty of curvilinear lines and postures, and the art itself is to follow the good path, so the painting makes people stare at the reverie, pleasing to the eye, and attracts the eyes of the audience.

    Since the history of Western art, there have been many painters who have used women as materials to create, and many oil paintings using women as materials have become enduring masterpieces.

    Many painters, especially male painters, use women as the material for oil painting, because women, their elegant posture, soft female body curved lines, and well-proportioned and perfect female body proportions can give the audience a sense of beauty and eye-catching visual experience.

    In particular, Chinese oil painters, the oriental women under the brush, their subtle, elegant, euphemistic, and elegant temperament connotations can give the audience a pleasant and endless appreciation feeling.
