The main techniques of Painting

Tools and Materials of Oil Painting limit result in complexity of painting techniques. For centuries, artists have created a variety of oil painting techniques in practice, making painting materials play its role adequately.

Oil painting’s major echniques:

1. Transparent color-covered method, without using the white color but only use the oil dilution pigments for multi-level painting. Each layer must be colored after the previous layer is dried. Because each layer is relatively rarefied, the lower the color can be vaguely revealed, forming subtle changes of color tone with the upper layer. For example, painting stable blue color on the crimson color layer will generate the rich effect of purple in blue or the warmth in coldness, which often can not be transferred out in the color palette. This kind of painting is suitable for the performance of images texture and solid sense , in particular, by vividly depicting the characters’ changes of skin color, it makes people feel the blood flowing under the skin surface . The disadvantage comes from a narrow color gamut, making the work process fine but a long time to complete, thus it is not very easy for the artist express his prompt real emotions of art.
2. Opaque color-covered method, also known as multi-level shading. First, use a single color to figure out general body appearance when painting, and then use the multi-level color to shape. Often dark part is painted thinly, middle tone and highlight layers thick, covered, or remained, forming contrasts of color module. Different thickness shows the color’s rich rhyme intention and texture. There is not strict distinction between transparent and opaque painting ,that is why artist often use them for integration in a portrait painting. When performed the images in the dark shadow , transparent color-coverd method can produce a stable and deep volume sense, and spatial sense; opaque color-covered rules is easy for shaping items outside dark parts, increasing color saturation of the picture.
3. An opaque coloring, also named direct coloring. That is to basically finish painting after making images outlines on the canvas, with the feeling of the color images ,lay colors to the idea of picture colors, and scrape the incorrect place with the painting knife and then continue coloring for adjustment. This painting, of which each pen is relatively dipped with pigments strongly, color saturation is high, strokes are more clear, and is an easy vivid expression of painting feelings . many artists choose this painting method in the late mid-19th century,. The role of oil paintingtechniques is that it combines styles of factors or focuses on an individual. The painting materials provides adequate possibility to apply oil painting techniques to the second grounding. Oil production is the techniques creative process when skilled artists consciously control the painting materials, select and apply artistic ideas, and form the artistic image. Paintings express the content the artist gives as well as the unique beauty of the oil painting language─ ─ drawing.

Regarding realistic oil painting

Realistic painting, in the form of art, belongs to representational art , is an expression of portrait .With observation and tracing of the external Images, experiencing in their own feelings and understanding , the artists reproduces the images outside, which caters the visual experience of the viewers, providing aesthetic senses pleasure.
Realistic painting, original from the West, had a long history and tradition. Realistic Painting, grown in in Europe during "Renaissance" period, experiencing 500 years of glory, had produced many immortal masterpieces, artists ,masters in art history. Before the 20th century, the whole history of Western art was a history of realistic painting, which people had never doubted. Have had such a thing: the emergence of "Camera" and "photography" made people doubt about the function of realistic portrait. In fact, the photography could not replace the painting, as the external challenges will force art itself more "artistic", which was decided by the art of self-discipline. Western art in the 20th century broke the tradition dominance of classical realism. In particular, the birth of modern art concept, had greatly expanded the boundaries of art, art genres, colorful, starting moving toward multi-pronged new world. As a form of painting, realistic painting, still occupied a place, and there were also some outstanding artists and works.


Realistic Painting in China had a vast market. Thanks to government support and advocacy, realistic painting kept being a single flower of Chinese painting in most period of the 20th century. The French academic realist painting, represented by Xu Beihong, and the Russia KeFu fellowship scarlett academic,their teaching rules were regarded as orthodox, when art practice and teaching got restrictions for a long term, engaging policies in the theme of creation. In the closed program, it should be recognized by Chinese and foreign artists, that the artists concentrated on studying the Chinese martial arts had greatly enhanced the portrait techniques.
With the door of the country open, the trends of modern art whistled through.The Chinese painting in 1980 had achieved real fission, the sense of diversity had rooted in people. The art began to catch the world, and tried to work with the world trend in parallel. How the fate of realistic painting would be ,which had been regarded as tradition and orthodox . In the modern art movement, the realistic painting once fell into a dilemma, it seemed that realistic painting was regarded synonymous with closed and conservative, in which context, the position of insisting on academic became very pale and weak. What was more, art, as a commodity,entered the circulation, because of the unsatisfactory operation of the art market, and the not synchronization of "market" and "academic", some artists even intended to compete in the market, the academic profile of realistic painting (of course not limited to realistic painting) fell into a worse situation. However, the realistic painting, as a member of multiple ones, its own artistic mission and artistic charm still had not been presence-reduced after going through many storms. From the practice of art in recent years, it shows the realistic style of artists give us at least three tips as the following:
First of all, the artists draw more attention to the language expression, they love life and concern about the relationship between people and society by fully using the oil painting as a carrier . Painting language styles are different, emphasis on self appearance is highlighted. Furthermore, the artist absorbed in practice a variety of materials for application (owing to Weir and Bin Kasi’s materials and techniques teaching). Oil painting’s dealing with picture effect was significantly better than the eighties’ and nineties’. Finally, also most notable,is the integration of the concept of modern art. Many artists,in a whole new view, explains and expresses mental imagery in the works, presenting a refreshing idea, known as "neoclassical," " New concrete doctrine ", the" new easel painting ", etc. We may collectively referred them to the" new realism. "
In short, many artists join in realistic painting of irresistible charm and irreplaceable function, tempering themselves, definitely to reproduce the endless wind.

Master Impressionist Armand Guillaumin

Understanding of Impressionist painting friends, all know that 19th century French Monet, Pissarro, Sisley and other masters, but we may not be familiar with the name of Armand Dejiyueman，his presentation in art history is extremely rare. I also recently saw a large number of his portraits.
Armand Dejiyueman (Armand Guillaumin) 1841-1927 French Impressionist master. Born and died in Paris. He participated in Impressionist exhibitions since 1874,and is a Monet, Pissarro and Cezanne's companion (Cézanne was copying his landscape painting). He is also a guide Xinie Ke.
Below is a haystack, if it is not noted,many people may have thought that the works of Monet, Armand Dejiyueman was the friends of Monet, Pissarro and others to paint, they often go out painting to explore the secrets of light and color. So this piece of works also have focus on light and color for a detailed study like the works of Monet.
Compare two of the painting, we can see that, although all draw on the straw, there are still difference on the style and the oil painting. Monet's fine, but some of Armand Germany is extensive.
Please note the color of the sky. We have a lot of painting lovers, regardless of the circumstances under which painting the sky, are all is blue, Prussian blue plus white, the sky and the large screen so are uncoordinated, appeared to be very tacky. Again look at the works of masters, we will know, a good oil painting color, the first play of colors can be moving. The same situation also appears on the ground.
The same is the Impressionist painter, Monet, Pissarro, Sisley, etc. are basically intertwined with rich color and detailed point of tissue images, Renoir Zeyi rich color line. However, Armand De able to maintain own personality, not the factions in. He was full of the barge terminal, Ge Luozi scenery, painted a bold and bright. he described the flow of water in the valley, the autumn sun shining, trees bathed in brilliant sunshine, embankment adjacent to the vitality, because of his warm, sharp colors, bold brush strokes to draw a rough magnificent melody and rhythm.
Of course, his portrait is not that all people will like. He sometimes use too much red, purple, lilac color , the painting is not fine, some people may think he is rough and blunt paintings. However, Like works of art and food, each person, each region in different people's tastes, so sometimes it is really hard to say, I am a southerner, not used to the pancakes with shallots, mustard and more not used, but will eat a few times used to it, even if not used, can not say that it is not good, because some people like it Well. Armand de considerable disparity between the merits of the works, but the whole, his work has a strong personality, or is ranked in the impression master of the columns doctrine.
His later works close to Fauvism painters. More intense use of color, simple, tend to flat, decorative style, but second-rate Impressionist painter can not ratio to his pieces of pink portrait (he very good at it) elegant still life, landscapes painting.

The Portrait Of Life ---- Walter • Sheer Si

In fact, only defining him as a portrait photographer is not very accurate, as his shooting range is quite extensive. Nowadays, Sheer Si is already 71 years old. The first job of this very talented professional photographer is a window decorator, the nature of the work let him always run around. In 1966, Sheer Si came to New York , just in order to be a photographer. In 1970, Sheer Si returned back to Germany, at this time, as a photographer, he has successfully actived in the fashion magazines, advertising and other fields.
Speaking of Sheer Si's portrait photography, we should mention the period of his career. Many years after 1975, Sheer Si started as a photographer in a company called "parents" (Eltern) magazine, what he shoot is just the children's portraits, and since then, Sheer Si was deeply in love with a variety of faces.
Perhaps, just from the faces of innocent children ，Sheer Si experienced all the insights about life. What in contrast with “the life” ,is “the death,” although many people do not want to mention this. Currently, the faces Sheer Si shot can be said countless. His portraits photography is not a simple pose, but through the facial expression to show the human ‘s consciousness and personality ,with such a clear presentation to move people. Sheer Si has said a word, "people must see through the surface phenomenon." And the way he showed his inner heart is photography, which is a direct visual form.
German "Star" magazine has ever published an interview with Sheer Si in No. 38 in 2005, which referred to his subjects of portraits of some insights. Sheer Si said, only 3 seconds is enough for people to show their expression, any more than 3 seconds will not show a sincere smile ,as the faces of people will turn into a stiff mask after 3 seconds. Leaving aside the profound theories, just think of the stiff look every time when taking pictures but find no feeling, then can understand what it means. After all, normal people did not have the abundance of occupational star smile. when shooting the German leaders, Sheer Si ‘s lens is not only against to their faces, but also to their hands.In the opinion of Sheer Si, like everyone has different faces, people's hands are also different.
But Sheer Si has a very strict limits to the pictures of leaders’ hands, he does not allow them outside spread, because he doesn’t want some certain charlatans "in order to determine the character or predict the future depends."

Soul of Africa
We try to look for the props and background to express their personality when photographing children portraits in the daily life. In this photo, the photographer obtains the effect of full hope by requiring the little boy to look up at the sky. Children are the most suitable photographing objects if some instructions are made to them, added by the interest of shooting scene. But plans need to be done accordingly as children can not keep their concentration for a long time.

Notes for photographers
“one good friend of mine knows Louis’ mother. I know from him that the little boy has got a deep soul and a pair of beautiful green eyes. I have a kind of intimacy when we met for the first time. When I asked for his agreement to take a picture, he faced to the camera calmly and relaxingly . knowing he has experienced some hard days, I required him to look up expressing hope. I will never get out of my mind of the beautiful boy’s performance. He was very smart in his age. Later ,a music company, Blue Flame asked me to donate this photo as the cover to Child Need Care And Love . Louris got 30% of the sales amount as his education saving.

Most people in the middle do nothing more intimate than his own pony. At the same time they know that this request they will be barred forever.

And some days they just want to be alone.
