Abstract

Since the 20th century, Chinese ink figure painting has pioneered diverse expressive forms along the path of "East-West integration." With the development of the times and changing aesthetic demands, questions about the development and creation of figure paintings, which emphasize moulding, inevitably relate to the interplay between brushwork and form. This article, starting from the essence of Chinese ink figure painting and combining the creative practices of Chinese ink painters, proposes strengthening sketch training to enhance the understanding of form. It also advocates for life studies to delve into real-life experiences, aiming to convey the spirit of the era through the depiction of figures. The focus is placed on the figures themselves, followed by integration with brush and ink to address the relationship between form and brushwork. The intention is to connect with contemporary art in a diverse artistic environment to advance Chinese ink figure painting.
