The skill of using ink for freehand peony lies in ~
The pen is concise and smooth, the pen and ink are natural, and the freehand brushwork without color is also called "ink painting".
Male dioecious plants have only small stamens, or only large stamens, some of which are obvious and some are hidden, which need careful observation. Calyx also varies with the types of flowers, such as plum blossom and peach blossom, plum blossom and begonia grow on a long stem, rose and rose, camellia calyx is like fish scales.
(2) Leaves: When monocotyledons grow leaves from branches or stems, the leaf sequence is opposite and alternate, and so on. Some compound leaf plants are pinnate, palmately bird-footed, and some have double leaves, which are more complex in shape. We must understand the law of growth first, so as not to make mistakes in complexity. Leaves have petioles and veins, and their shapes have different size ratios, such as the length of a pointed circle.
(3) Stems and branches: they can be divided into woody herbs, vines and vines. The branches of wood are quite hard, some are quite thick, and the stems of herbs are mostly tender, some become right-handed or left-handed, and some have whisker-like climbing stems.
Flower sketch
All kinds of flowers are fresh and full of vitality in the morning or morning, which is a good time to sketch. Sketching is to collect materials for creation. If it is for the needs of meticulous painting, it must be described in detail. Sometimes we need multiple flowers to gather together on the screen. When sketching and collecting materials, there must be four sides: positive, negative, lateral and oblique. There are complete flowers and some flowers covered by branches and leaves, both small buds and large buds that can bloom. The same is true for leaves. Besides mature leaves, there should also be tender leaves and buds, and attention should be paid to the back of yin and yang, and the size should be interspersed. Branches should also be divided into branches and branches, as well as the posture and density in the picture. These are the first problems that we should pay attention to when collecting materials for the purpose of sketching.
Although flower-and-bird painting does not usually have a stable perspective like landscape painting, we can use the method of moving the perspective to sketch from the most beautiful angle, paying attention to the proportion of flowers, branches and leaves. Painting flowers can start from the petals of stamens. Usually draw the most complete and front petals first, and then extend around. If the petals are too complicated, you can summarize them and pay attention to their beautiful shape. The same is true of painting leaves. Besides paying attention to leaf order and structure, we should also pay attention to the changes of leaf back, leaf longitudinal direction, leaf back and leaf density, as well as the changes of front and rear leaves. Finally, we should draw branches, and when we do it vigorously, we should draw skin lines, such as the plum blossom should be young and old, the skin lines should be inclined, the small stems should be tall and strong, the dried peach skin should be horizontal, and the loose dried skin should have scales.
The sketch of flowers should start with folding flowers, take an easy-to-draw mosaic and insert it in a vase for detailed observation. The covered stamens can also study the detailed structure separately. After you are familiar with simple branches, you can choose a corner of the whole flower to try, or sketch the whole flower. Because the branches and leaves are more complicated, we must choose a suitable angle and make substantial cutting or adjustment. In short, flower sketch is not an illustration or illustration of plants, but a subjective choice and beautification, emphasizing the expression of interest.
