Abstract

Representing the “natural form” does not mean obliterating its natural properties, instead, the representing must not only adapt to the object but also keep independent of the object. Adaptation here refers to grasping the “natural form”, namely precisely understanding the basic structure and spatial relations. Meanwhile, independence here means the painter must center on the picture in his mind instead of the objective one, which further refers to understanding and using “artistic form”. Training on sketching should integrate “form” and “modeling” in a scientific way to import integrity, rhythm and aesthetics into the picture.
