Hook: refers to the hook line that hooks the basic contour lines of rocks and trees. This seemingly simple step is actually the key to the success of the whole painting. Because cross-checking is actually the conceptual design of the whole painting, the basic outline design is not good, and the painted works must not look good. So before cross-checking, you should have a general idea and idea of the whole painting, so that you can have a well-thought-out plan and design drawings if necessary. Graffiti is not necessarily clever.
The design of hook line can be divided into two parts: the northern landscape is characterized by majestic mountains and rivers and pine and cypress in ancient Cang Sang, and the southern landscape is characterized by elegant and interesting mountains and rivers and elegant and beautiful flowers and willows. Modern landscape tends to use banners to depict panoramic and vast scenes.
Generally, use wet ink or clear water for tick marks, and avoid using ink with higher concentration, so that it can be saved instead.
It is best to sketch the drawing paper vertically with a hook line, and it is easy to produce visual errors when lying flat on the drawing table. After the hook, it should be hung up and checked and corrected repeatedly until the whole composition and scenery are satisfactory.
There are as many as eighteen lines in Chinese painting, and different lines reflect different textures. Therefore, it is very important to choose the right line. Usually, the angular lines such as iron line paintings and overlapping reed paintings can better show the texture of rocky mountains, stones and ancient trees, while the relatively gentle lines such as You Simiao and Ye Lan paintings can better show the characteristics of unearthed mountains and hills.
Rubbing: Rubbing is a unique brushwork of landscape painting. Usually, the core of landscape painting is wrinkling, in other words, you can't understand landscape painting without understanding rubbings. Wrinkling refers to drawing the wrinkled texture of rocks and trees with a pen. The painting style of landscape painters in ancient and modern times is different from that of line composition, mostly because of the different wrinkling methods. Landscape painters of past dynasties have created dozens of wrinkling methods, thus forming their own unique style. Typical ones are: the nail head wrinkle of Guan Tong, the idea wrinkle of Li Cheng and Fan Kuan, the horse wrinkle of Dong Yuanhe, the cirrus wrinkle of Guo, the rice-point wrinkle of Mi Fei and his son, the iron scratch wrinkle of He, the slow-moving wrinkle of Xia Gui, the broken rope wrinkle of Huang, the wrinkle of Ni Zan, the wrinkle of Wang Meng's ox hair and so on.
Among them, Mi Fei's rice wrinkles, Li Tang's and Ma Yuan's axe wrinkles and Xiao Zhao's iron scratches are all rough brush wrinkles, which are suitable for painting wild paintings. Painting is free and easy, but rough. The others are fine brushes, which are suitable for fine painting. Because of its delicacy, thousands of strokes are extremely time-consuming.
If the line method (eighteen strokes) of Chinese painting is the core element of figure painting and the ink (color) method is the core element of flower-and-bird painting, then the wrinkle method of landscape painting, that is, the brushwork, can be described as the core element of landscape painting. Therefore, landscape painters of past dynasties have made unremitting exploration on this and formed four series: point wrinkle, line wrinkle, face wrinkle and dyeing wrinkle. The development of wrinkling in the past dynasties gradually developed in the direction of simplification, quickness and convenience. In the Tang and Five Dynasties, the method of removing wrinkles was mainly point wrinkles, which was extremely time-consuming. The Northern Song Dynasty was dominated by line patterns, while the Southern Song Dynasty was dominated by surface patterns, which have been gradually simplified. There were both line patterns and surface patterns in Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties. Modern freehand brushwork rarely wrinkles, and it is more simplified by direct painting. Practice has proved that it is not good for landscape painting not to wrinkle, nor is it good for it to wrinkle too much. Simple and lively wrinkles are the general trend.
This book is about my own creation of bald sesame wrinkle, random dot (dot) broken pen, random line trembling pen, broken pen hair, horizontal and vertical line (line) broken, dry pen brush wrinkle, blunt pen bark wrinkle, freehand brushwork wrinkle (face), ink smudge wrinkle (dye wrinkle), all of which are fine pen wrinkles, which are more natural and real than all kinds of ancient wrinkles. The above wrinkling methods can be selected according to your own preferences or you can create other wrinkling methods yourself.
Point: The points in ancient paintings mainly point to moss. I added some trees and flowers, which means that it is more interesting to draw vegetation on rocks with a knife and a blunt pen to make them full of life than to draw barren hills and bare mountains.
Dyeing: refers to dyeing rocks and trees with light ink, wet ink or color, and dyeing moire and water ripples to make the scenery three-dimensional. In classical landscape painting, Song painting pays more attention to rendering, but after Yuan Dynasty, many painting methods only have hooks, wrinkles and dots, while modern landscape painting pays more attention to rendering, that is to say, there is no painting without dyeing. Rendering can really increase the beauty of the picture. When rendering, it is usually better to wrinkle the front and dye the back. The dyeing methods of raw propaganda and cooked propaganda are different.
The rendering of cooked propaganda is usually divided into two ways: dyeing and painting, and can also be divided into dry dyeing and wet dyeing. Dry dyed and non-wet paper, painted with ink, can be dyed quickly with clear water. Wet dyeing first sprays the paper wet, spreads the ink color on the place to be dyed, and then quickly dyes the edges with a clear water pen to form a natural effect of excessive shading. Painting is mainly used to draw distant mountains. Draw the shape of the distant mountain first, and then quickly dye the bottom with a clear pen to fade, forming a cloud.
-The presentation method is usually brush dyeing, dot clustering, mixed dyeing, cross dyeing, ink accumulation or ink interruption. There are also differences between dry dyeing and wet dyeing, but dry dyeing is easy to show a white mark at the intersection of two strokes, while wet dyeing is not. Wet dyeing should be carried out after 80% wet drying of paper.
Brush dyeing method is often used to dye rocks and trees, that is, dip a pen in a little light ink, and wet dye the place to be dyed by sweeping and brushing to form a gradation.
The point cluster method is often used to dye clouds, which are formed by dry pen. The surface of the dot cluster should not be too wide.
Mixed dyeing method, also known as dipping ink method, is often used to dye rocks, trees and clouds, usually wet dyeing. Dip the pen in some wet ink or water first, then dip the pen tip in a little light ink, and then write where you want to dye it. This dyeing method requires higher requirements and deeper knowledge.
Hook dyeing method is often used to dye distant mountains, with an extra-large brush dipped in water and a pen tip dipped in light ink. You can use the pen tip to cross-dye the mountain level inward, or you can use the pen tip to cross-dye the mountain level outward. Cross-dyeing should usually be molded at one time and should not be applied repeatedly.

The tip of the pen is dyed outward. ...
Ink accumulation method is to use wet ink to dye the place to be dyed flat, and then use light ink and thick ink to gradually deepen the depth to be added until it is satisfactory. The second and third dyeing with accumulated ink should be carried out after the previous water is slightly dry, otherwise it is easy to soak flowers because of too much water. At the same time, a part of water can be removed by a hair dryer.
There are two ways to break ink: wet breaking and dry breaking. Wet breaking is to apply thick ink first, and quickly break the thick ink with wet ink or clear water, so that the ink color will naturally disperse by virtue of its immersion in water. The law of drying and wetting is the opposite. Wet the paper before inking. Breaking ink also includes ink breaking color, color breaking ink, light breaking thickness, thick breaking thin and so on, so I won't go into details.
Dyeing also includes dyeing. Landscape painting usually uses turquoise, which is divided into big turquoise, small turquoise and light crimson. It is better to paint a little orange or Chu color on the top or bottom of the mountain. (network reprint)
In principle, it is first light and then thick, first outside and then inside, and the depth is matched.
