Chapter 028: The Lady Figure 2

It is difficult to draw a person with a hand, this is the experience of a painter. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoA good figure painting mainly lies in the correct proportions of the whole body of the character and the real vividness of the image, but the hand plays a more important role in the expression and posture of the whole character.

Tsing Yi, Hua Dan, and Wu Dan in Chinese opera, the movements and postures of the hands have certain names, the most commonly used is the orchid hand, the posture of this hand is that the middle finger and the thumb are straight and slightly close, and the other fingers are naturally slightly upturned up, as if the orchid is open, so it is named, and the hand painted by the traditional lady is like this.

In Xu Fu's painting, a lady with flowers holds a plate of smallpox in her right hand and a flower in her left hand, with her little finger cocked, and her posture is extremely beautiful. The hands in traditional ladies' paintings can be said to be in a variety of postures, and they are very full of expression. In terms of the way the hands are drawn, most of the hands painted by traditional ladies are relatively small, and the fingers are particularly pointed and thin.

The shape of the lady's hand refers to the image of the hand, such as length, fatness, size, etc., which belongs to the physiological characteristics of the character. Buddha, Bodhisattva, Flying Lady and Dancing Lady, the shape of the hand is different, the hand of the lady is drawn with a thin line, there is a rhyme and no knots, very soft, the third finger is slightly longer, it appears powerful, and the flesh protruding from the finger is hooked.

The hook of the hand is the same as the hook of the face, which needs to be well-proportioned and tight, so that the soft line is full of elasticity. The lines of the lady's hand are drawn in a hairsspring with a thin line to express the symmetry and softness of the lady's hand.

In order to express the blood in the skin of the hand, it is necessary to dye the tips of the fingers, the junction of the wrist and forearm, the ball of the thumb, and the ball of the little finger with the eosin.

Use ochre to adjust the red fat, and dye the light and shade of the fingers, the back of the hand and the palm, and the fingers only need to be dyed to one side, not both sides. At the same time, don't dye too deep or ask for too much three-dimensionality, otherwise it will not be in harmony with the face.

Use vermilion, eosin, garcinia cambogia and powder to synthesize the flesh color to cover all the hands, and carry out the face at the same time, and then use the eosin ochre to hook the color line of the hand after drying, and also hook the face at the same time, so that the coloring of the lady's hand is all over.

The coloring of ladies' paintings is the same as that of landscapes, flowers and birds, and it must start with dyeing ink. That is to say, before coloring, it is necessary to dye the places that should be dyed ink, such as the hair bun, eyebrows, and the parts that are based on ink, and then start coloring, so the pen, ink, and color are inseparable.

Ink is divided into five ink and six colors, five ink refers to dry, black, thick, light, wet, six color finger ink can be divided into black, white, dry, wet, thick, light. The white drawing, rendered purely in ink, is an independent painting with a high degree of artistry.

Xu Fu's two paintings of ladies in white are really exquisite. One of the paintings depicts a lady playing a guzheng, her face, hair bun, and clothes belt, as well as the musical columns and silk strings, all dyed in layers of rich and different shades of ink. Although this painting does not use color, it also has a sense of color, and these two high-level paintings of white ladies and gentlemen strongly illustrate that ink is color.

After the bun is hooked, it is gradually deepened with light ink, then the color of the face and hands is applied, and then the bun is dyed with ink to the desired concentration. The lady's bun dyed with light color is dyed with lighter ink, and only one or two places are dyed with thick ink; The most difficult part of dyeing ink is to calculate the hairline of the forehead, which must be dyed accurately according to the original hooked hairline, from thick to light, until there is no trace.

In order to dye your hair well, you must be proficient in the narrow dyeing technique that is unique to the rendering method. Narrow dyeing is when the hair is painted in a bun with a very strong ink color, and the dye is suddenly faint and dyed without a trace.

First, the cheeks of the ladies were dyed, and then covered with thick clam powder, without ochre, and the flesh color made of vermilion fat was dyed with light and dark. Because the contour line of the face is very accurate, it has a three-dimensional effect even without adding light and shade. Use a little light flesh color, mainly on the dark side of the nose and under the neck, and then add a thin powder cover, and then use heavy powder to dye the forehead, nose, and chin. This technique of applying heavy powder and less light and dark color just expresses the effect of heavy makeup and glamorous makeup that noble ladies admire, and is rich in strong decoration. The lady's picture is rendered in a very detailed way, using cinnabar and ochre to dye the eye sockets, nose recesses, cheeks, mouth, ears and cheekbones, and then cover them with flesh-colored powder.

For the heavy color coloring parts of the lady's picture, the ink color of the hair and eyebrows can be slightly thicker, and the face, nose, mouth, neck and hands belong to the muscles and skin, and the lighter ink should be used to outline the parts of the face, nose, mouth, neck and hands. The upper and lower lips should also be hooked with lighter ink, the line between the mouth should be slightly deeper, and the headdress must be outlined with thick ink. When outlining the line, the pen should be thin and strong, and according to the relationship between bones and muscles, outline the weight, tightness, thickness and virtual reality. At the same time, it is also necessary to pay attention to symmetry, if the thickness is too different, it will be uncoordinated, or even ugly.

Dyeing of hair and eyebrows, first use light ink to dye the bun for the first time, pay attention to the strict boundary between the forehead and the hairline, do not overdye the head, but also dye enough, strictly control the moisture contained in the pen, when dyeing to the boundary of the hairline, the water content of the pen should be gradually reduced. After dyeing the bun, the eyebrows and eyes of the character are dyed with light ink, the ink should be baked when dyeing the eyebrows, and the depth of the upper eyelids should be dyed when dyeing the eyes, and then the eyeballs should be dyed.

Dye the cheeks, eye sockets, ear chakras and fingertips, these parts should be dyed with eosin, eosin is magenta, and the cheeks should be especially dyed with eosin, which is used to express the color of the healthy skin of the character and express the effect of specific women's makeup. The faces of men, women, children, and babies should be dyed magenta first.

Dyeosin is a very important first color in the lady's painting, if the first dye is not good, the following dyes will not be good. Therefore, dyeing the face with eosin first requires a moderate shade, too light, the dyeing will not have the desired effect, too strong will be ugly, and it cannot be washed off after covering the powder. If the shade is moderate, after applying the powder, it will make people feel the redness coming out of the skin and gradually spreading until there is no trace. After dyeing the cheeks, use eosin to dye the eye sockets, the contours of the ears, the tips of the fingers, the phalanges, and the wrist and arm rings.

To dye the face, use ochre and vermilion to dye all parts of the face, ears, cheeks, eyebrows, around the nose, corners of the mouth, chin, neck, and hands. It is required to dye it twice in succession, but you need to wait until the first time is completely dry before you can dye it a second time. Don't over-dye it, don't overemphasize the convex and concave dyeing, in short, dye it in moderation. The tone is required to be moist, uniform and saturated.

Cover the face, ears, neck and hands, these parts must be made of powdered flesh-colored cover, with vermilion, garcinia cambogia, three shades into the powder. This method is mainly used for coloring the picture of the ladies with heavy color brushwork, while the faces of the ladies with light coloring freehand paintings can be directly dyed with flesh color without adjusting the powder.

If you mix too much powder, it is easy to stiffen, like paper paste, and lack the feeling of skin; if the powder is too thin, it will appear dull. If Zhu Yan and magenta are mixed too much, the face will look too red, as if drunk wine, if the garcinia cambogia is mixed too much, it will be even worse, it will look yellow and thin, and a sick face.

The three whites refer to the character's forehead, nose, and chin dyed with thicker powder. Powder is dyed from the eyebrows all the way up to the forehead until the hairline, and one is dyed from the forehead from the hairline down to the eyebrows.

Open the face, finish, this is the last coloring, the eyebrows, eyes have been drawn, and the mouth part has also completed half of the upper lip, first add the hair to the maximum concentration; cover the hair in the bun with light cyan to make the hair darker, hook the eye sockets with deep ink; point out the eyeballs with deep ink, point the eyeballs with eighty percent black, don't point to death black, you must see the pupils that were pointed out when the original line is drawn, in order to be vivid; in the inside of the eyelids and the lower edge of the white eyeballs, but also with light cyanine dye, the eyes appear crystal bright.
