CHINA TOP HOTEL 17" x 24" (43cm x 61cm) An Asian art book review by Gary… Obviously, this .biz is a combination of the detail and spontaneous .bizs. Some artists like to paint floral.bizbird paintings in this .biz. The paintings are not exactly equally half of each .biz. In most cases, the focus objects are in detail .biz and the others are in spontaneous .biz. Spontaneous.biz.biz artists reinterpret rather than copy nature. They manipulate brushstrokes in an abbreviated manner. As a result, spontaneous.biz.biz paintings can be semiabstract and may use metaphors to depict the essence and spirit of objects without emphasis on details. Breaking a mountain into segments in a landscape, for instance, is a traditional metaphor for losing ones homeland. Bamboo symbolizes honor and dignity, while flowers are symbolic of encouragement and nobility. Orchids connote high morality… This spontaneous.biz.biz painting shows no small details. The brushstrokes are not uniform as in the detail.biz.biz painting, and the variety of strokes suggests texture and movement. Notice how the tails and fins of the goldfish are defined by wide brushstrokes rather than outlines. TWO EGRETS If you are an aspiring artist, interested in learning Chinese techniques for creating animal paintings, this is the book for you. The illustrations are great. Most of the pictures in the book in in full color and very detailed. The author is always careful to include notes and diagrams about composition and ensuring balance in your artwork. He also keeps it interesting by adding little tidbits about the historical significance of a certain technique or composition. A few anecdotes about his experience teaching westerners about Chinese art at the University of California Berkley are also included. But the main content stays on the subject of teaching you about the Chinese way to paint. Note: If you are looking for a guide to paint Asian landscapes, people, or calligraphy, this is not the book for <a href="http://www.salehandbagsbags.com"><strong>cheap dior handbags for sale</strong></a> you. This book really focuses on Chinese animal paintings. BEAUTY OF FREEDOM Chinese ink and colors on mature Shuan Chinese ink and colors on double.bizlayer raw Shuan Back to our Asian Art ############## Detail.bizStyle Painting Sochinese painBy Lian Quan Zhenme of the best illustrations and pictures that Ive seen in an Asian art book chinese painBy Lian Quan Zhen,I really enjoyed this book, but a lot of that has to do with the business that I am in (selling Asian artwork). For the size of the book (144 pages) the author packs it full of good information. Detail .biz is the basic training for Chinese painting students. It teaches them to manipulate their brushes to acquire proper strokes, to observe and analyze details and to use colors. This typical detail.biz.biz painting depicts small details, such as the egrets feathers and individual rice grains. The objects are painted with outlines and then filled in with colors. All text and images in this white box are Copyright 2000 by Lian Quan Zhen Detail.biz.biz paintings show a lot of small details. For example, in bird and fish paintings, feathers and scales are clearly depicted. Artists handle their brushes carefully and slowly, and the brushstrokes are smaller and more uniform than in other .bizs of painting. In addition to ink, vivid and intense colors are also used. Artists use suces that do not absorb water,such as alum rice and alum silk. Not a big deal, but the author uses Wade.bizGiles (the way to Romanize Chinese words still popular in Taiwan and Hong Kong) instead of Pinyin (the Romanizing scheme used in Mainland China, and the official technique of Chinese transliteration according to the U.S. Library of Congress, also used in most colleges and universities around the world that teach Mandarin Chinese). I am a little surprised by this, since the author is actuallyfrom the mainland. It just makes you guess at some of the words if youve studied any Chinese. "Xuan" becomes "Shuan" , The "Song" Dynasty becomes The "Sung" Dynasty, "Guangdong" becomes "Canton" etc. 2010 Update: This book is now out.bizof.bizprint, but the author has written some new books on Chinese painting. Techniques for painting some key animals of Chinese culture are not included (dragons & tigers). Also missing are landscapes and figures (people). I think its good that it stays on the subject of painting animals, I just think the word "animals" should appear in the title since that is the true subject explored in this book. Also known as scholar .biz, this type of painting is strongly influenced by Chinese calligraphy and poetry. It remains the dominant .biz since its full development during the Sung dynasties. According to scholar.biz.biz painting theory, poetry, calligraphy and painting (the three perfections) are inseparable. A great artist should master them all. This book costs less than 16 on Amazon. The first chapter, CHINESE PAINTING BASICS helps you get started with the right materials, paints, brushes, and other equipment. Youll find in the remaining chapters, techniques for painting cranes, eagles, peacocks, chickens, fchinese painting .bizish, crabs, frogs, and other wildlife.
