什么是素描?

素描从广义上讲,顾名思义,包含有“朴素的描写”之意。它是用铅笔、毛笔、钢笔、碳笔,甚至是现在流行的手写版的画笔等工具做单色的描绘。

但从狭义上讲,素描是一切造型艺术(包括绘画、建筑、雕塑等)的基础训练学科。是通过线条、色块的深浅把我们所画的物象的体积的感觉和空间的感觉真实的表现在平面的纸上。学习美术必须打好素描基础。

素描是一切造型艺术的基础,素描也是独立的艺术形式。

任何一种画作,甚至最简单的线描画,也蕴含了最基础的素描关系。再深一点,连色彩也需要符合基本的素描规律–色相、明度、纯度之间的各种对比与差别,就是素描关系的体现。优秀的画作必须拥有同样优秀的素描关系。就连抽象画也包含在内。素描认知不足,那么,对于速写和色彩的训练也会产生难以避免的艺术认知与艺术表达缺陷。

有时我们去看画展,每当看到大师级的作品,感觉震撼,被作品紧紧抓住,优秀的作品非常吸引人,让人难以忘怀。那么为什么好多作品有强烈的感召力?这与画家长期训练,反复作画、敏锐洞察力有关,每个绘画大师的背后都有一个勤学苦练的故事。

学画和学戏、学舞蹈、学器乐一样,都必须学习基本功,绘画的基本功就是素描      我们为什么要学素描? 我们观察一切事物要有经过素描基本锻炼那样的观察能力。对象的形态、颜色的层次、怎样取得画面上的主次关系、怎样在一个画面上得到平衡,等等。这些问题,学好素描后都能解决。    现在的问题是学了素描以后怎样跳出来,变得更有感染力,要从全局着眼,然后再从局部入手;入手时不是为这局部,而是为了整体。如果你能把整体表现得强有力,表现得更充分,甚至比自然形态的东西更强烈,它就有感染力。感染力从哪里来?不是从繁琐里来,而是从简练中来。从头到尾都要学那种有高度概括力的语言;色彩也好,形象也好,都要有高度的概括力。

速写主要就是通过线条勾画形象。我们为什么除了画明暗法的素描习作还强调要画速写呢?因为通过速写训练,能够用线的处理来更全面地掌握形象和它的运动。有人画素描,眼睛看到什么就画什么,在对象上看不到线就不画线,只画明暗层次,画成照片一般。这样的问题,在速写中就不可能产生。因此要多作速写。一边画素描,一边画速写,二者同时并进。速写,我们不仅应该说它是艺术表现的一种手段,为了发展一个创作意图的画稿,对造型做功夫的研究或习作,它是造型的准备工作的开端,是创造形象的资料;也应该认为速写是艺术家必须毕生坚持的一种作业,是与其他基础功夫同样不可偏废的重要锻炼,纵然没有一定创作目的或计划,艺术家也应该经常面向生活,深入观察,不断积累手和眼的配合,培养自己敏锐的感觉和用形象来反映自己的感受

画素描要先学静物写生、石膏几何体写生、石膏像写生、人物肖像写生。速写要学习对要绘画物体的线条概括能力,要学习速写树木、山川、河流等风景中的绘画语言,学习静物、人物形状概括能力,学习人物动态等。
