Painting is not only a combination of color and lines, but also an interaction between artistic mediums and creative tools. Among them, drawing paper, as the carrier of painting, has a profound impact on painting styles due to its thickness and texture. This article will explore how the thickness and texture of drawing paper affect different painting styles.
First, the impact of drawing paper thickness on painting styles. The thickness of drawing paper is directly related to the texture and hierarchy of painting works. Thicker drawing paper can better carry pigments, allowing artists to show more layers and details in the creative process. This type of paper has advantages in handling thick oils or complex color mixing. Thick drawing paper is suitable for creating realistic, abstract expressionist, and other styles of works, which can present a fuller and richer visual effect. Second, the impact of drawing paper texture on painting styles. The texture of drawing paper refers to the surface texture and touch of the paper, which directly affects the touch and visual effect of the painting work. Different painting styles require different paper textures to show their characteristics. For example, fine drawing paper is suitable for drawing delicate and soft lines and colors, such as Eastern ink painting; while rough drawing paper is more suitable for expressing rough and powerful painting styles, such as some Western oil paintings. Third, differences in Western and Eastern painting styles and choices of paper. There are obvious differences in painting styles between China and the West, which are also reflected in the choice of drawing paper. Chinese painting focuses on the charm of ink and wash and the expressiveness of lines, so it tends to choose fine and textured drawing paper. Western painting, on the other hand, focuses more on the expression of color and light and shadow, so painters choose drawing papers with different textures and thicknesses to meet their creative needs.
