The most important thing in painting is talent and diligence. First of all, you must have talent in this field, which comes from genetics. There are still many unknown reasons, and this is a very important point. It is really determined by talent that a person is suitable for what line and can do it. Otherwise, there will be no seventy-two lines, and there will be no such thing as being the top scholar.

When it comes to painting, if you don't have this talent, you can only be regarded as a senior painter if you rely on hard work. What is your talent? Talent is a person's special sensibility in a certain aspect, such as Huangshan Mountain. There are many paintings of Huangshan Mountain. Why only Huang Binhong's Huangshan Mountain has become a swan song is because his feelings about Huangshan Mountain are unique and unique.

Drawing requires not only unique feelings, but also keen observation and skillful techniques. The latter two can be obtained through hard work the day after tomorrow. For example, some painters now go to the trouble of climbing mountains and wading to sketch, which is the best way to get first-hand information about life, but also to endure loneliness and loneliness. Many artistic treasures are produced in loneliness, and Michelangelo is the best example. He painted the murals of the Sistine Chapel, lying alone on a shelf under the ceiling of 18 meters high, for four years and five months. Due to long-term work, his head could not bend down, and finally. There are countless such examples in the art world.

In this grandiose modern society, how many people can be unmoved by fame and fortune? The purpose of painting is not to entertain others, but to express one's thoughts and feelings for oneself. This is also the most important cognition of the efficacy of painting. But now many painters don't understand this, and the works they draw are all to cater to the tastes of the public, and they are the same and have no new ideas. Since painting is a dialogue between the painter and the world, painting should not cater to the secular vision, but should truly express one's own ideas, even if such ideas are not accepted for a while, as long as such feelings are an innovation and contribution to aesthetics and painting, they will not be buried.

Learning painting is not what ordinary people think that you can become an artist in the future. The key to learning painting is to learn the ability to observe and analyze things, cultivate the overall ability to observe and analyze things, cultivate the aesthetic ability and cultivate the ability to think in images. Thinking in images is the driving force of all disciplines, not just pure art. It permeates all aspects of our social life

For example, if you are a writer, all the scenes you describe come from life. What is presented through words is also a realistic scene. When you look at literary works, what appears in your mind is a concrete picture, just like acting in a movie. Inventors also have the idea to draw sketches first, forming the embryonic form of the initial image. It can give people an intuitive feeling. Determine the feasibility through the study of drawings, and then put it into practice. A senior chef is no exception. When he has a creative idea, he usually draws a sketch first and implements it. At the same time, thinking in images is also helpful to our study. Without thinking in images, we will learn by rote. Today, like teaching children to recite ancient poems, everyone knows that ancient poems are inspired by poets, expressing artistic conception, and most of them are lyrical by borrowing scenery. If you don't combine the exquisiteness described in the text, it will cause confusion. Because many poems and rhymes are the same, if you recite too much, you will make jokes in disorder.

So painting is the only way to cultivate thinking in images. Without thinking in images, there is no innovation. It is not just a matter of drawing a few pictures, the key is to learn the correct observation thinking, that is, to be able to see correctly. Learn the basic internal laws. Only by seeing right can we draw right, and at the same time cultivate our artistic appreciation and broaden our horizons. People often say that life without dreams is sad, and dreams will have the motivation to realize the beautiful "reality" in our minds.

Painting is a highly skilled technical activity, which is not only a good painting skill, but also an artistic expression. Therefore, the most important thing in painting is to be creative, because painting is not based on people's vision as a reference to scenery and people, nor is it based on the present. Instead, it is necessary for the painter to make a systematic creativity in his heart by accumulating his own reality, precipitating profound connotation and rich social practice experience, and relying on all the elements mentioned in his own excellent tradition and rich experience in his conception, this important creative inspiration will come like a spring.

In fact, there are many painters who paint with high technical gold content, and their paintings are impeccable and beautiful. However, they often lack a good idea because of their own experience, connotation, social practice, and superficial experience, which makes ordinary people think that the paintings with high painting skills have no artistic deep connotation and can't highlight the artistic likeness.

so my answer is: What the painter wants is real, and the connotation of creative intention (artistic conception. realm) is the most important.
