Because the combination of heaven and earth is a vision, the vision is virtual, and the color is close to the sky. It is suitable for painting the vision when the color of the sky is about to dry up, and it is easy to get a sense of harmony and far-reaching feeling.
Of course, if the scenery is holistic, the color of the sky has little influence, and it is urgent to grasp the rhythm of light and shade and the color of time, then it is no harm to draw the scenery first and then the sky. This requires flexibility.
1, from far to near, division
Watercolor landscape painting is often rendered and depicted from far and near, from shallow to deep, from virtual to real, so it is easy to master the levels of dry and wet, color and light and shade, and the transition of color levels is more natural and soft than the actual situation, and it is easier for beginners to master. But we must pay attention to mastering the time, otherwise the time difference between before and after is too big, the color tone and light and shade will be unified, and it is easy to be out of balance. Especially in the morning and evening, before sunrise, we must first set the contrast and position of light and dark, otherwise it will be difficult to accurately show the specific effect.
This division method can't be looked at little by little, but must have a whole concept. Don't pick parts in isolation, try to shorten the gap of "time color" and strengthen color memory for supplement and adjustment.
2, from near to far, layered method.
In some special circumstances, such as the time is extremely short, or the orange-red sunlight shines on steep cliffs and ancient temples in the morning and evening, and a mysterious and wonderful color and composition appear, then of course, we must grasp this fleeting scene with a pen, first set the position of light perception and color on the scene, compare the intensity and the relationship between cold and warm, then adjust the shape, and then view the distant view and the sky from it, so as to finish it in reverse. Obviously, this method is very sketchy and needs a certain painting foundation to master. This or any other method is essential for capturing pictures and grasping colors. Otherwise, the occasional scenery will be completely different if it is drawn step by step.
3. A comprehensive and balanced approach.
This kind of painting is to seek "* * *" first, and then to seek image, which requires a strong overall concept and foresight; In this process, it seems that the picture is a bit messy, but in fact it is step by step and the most scientific, and it requires certain ability and experience to master it.
