The New Art

Emperor Heizong of Southern Song Dynasty, has established a creative idea of beautiful painting. Many new ideas are bing created and into models, that hundreds of years later this dynasty and time period would be the "Golden Age" of the Southern Song Dynasty or perhaps China.

The newly idea of Landscape Painting focuses on the quality of beauty. Images evoke poetic ideas, that capture the fleeting qualities of a particular moment. In contrast, the structure of the painting would look more softer, more lyrical, and serene.

Most artists that have started drawing landscape art have been using beautiful nature characteristics to make their art look more conferable and serene. They like to use space around what they draw, for example drawing themselves, now big, NOT small replicas that they look like in reality. Shifting gears, most common feature that make their paintings appealing is the use of nature and what nature gives them such as, the use of birds, bamboo trees, horses, the Yangzi River, mountains, private gardens, temples and so on. The most important thing that makes their art look beautiful is the eternal substances, emotions the character gives you by their face expression, aspiration and lastly, the being creative. Using brush strokes of pink, adds the painting its best look and inspires you when you look at the final piece.

Congratulations to Ma Yuan and Xia Gui for their first masterpieces. They have been working hard and their Landscape paintings will be at soon to come gallery.
