傅启中，湖北省武汉市人，是云南艺术学院美术系教授，云南水彩水粉画艺术委员会主任，是中国当代很有影响的水彩人物画家之一。傅启中的水彩画与众不同，他的水彩画的特点不是历史上界定的轻快、透明，而是融中西绘画为一体，在技法上有着新的开拓。他不顾一切地表现人物的内在心灵，表现人生中的酸甜苦辣，他把许多可以移植借鉴的方法都用到了他的水彩画中造成一种外国朋友看后，不知是怎样面出来的感觉。他所面的人物多是描绘藏族同胞的生活习俗，主要以朴实的形象和深沉的人物情感打动观者。

　　《汲水》一面是描写云南少数民族的作品，根本没有可能读书的小女孩，在日常劳动中风吹日晒，在那斑驳陆窝的石墙前汲水，古老的环境，嫩嫩的幼苗，悠悠的岁月，长长的流水，情中有景，景中有情，发人深思。这幅画的作画过程是先用铅笔作稿，严肃认真，一丝不苟，国到能够达到创作意图的要求为止。 着色过程与方法是先画环境后画人物，环境是以对印的肌理效果，做出那岁月古老的效果，以海绵擦、染，绘制石块的质感，在背景初具气氛时，开始精细地刻画人物，他突破成规，求水的韵味但不强调水的韵味，重点以色彩去表现人与环境，去表现画的内涵，皴、擦、点、染、对印、加蜡、吸除、罩染、沉淀和名

　　种肌理，只要需要，都能用上，目的都是为了表现。他自己说，“我爱能够体现雄浑、厚重、博大、深沉的一切，只要拿起画笔，就使我激动不已，忘了一切，我是心灵的表现派。”这就是他与众不同的地方。

　　傅启中认为“生活是严峻，生命是顽强的，在严峻之下的顽强生命力，乃是我希望表现和礼赞的。”从傅启中一幅幅人物画中，无论是艰辛的、欢乐的，还是那平平常常的“赶街”

　　，或是那夕阳余晖下的牧日，以及天真无邪充满稚气的儿童，每一件作品，都是作者与边陲少数民族的心声融在一起的诗篇。在那艰难的人生历程中，他们顽强地战胜自然，力图使自己生活得更好一些，日出而作，日落而息，这些平平淡淡的生活情节，在作者笔下的每一个国面都给观者留下了极深印象，在心灵上受到了感染。他的代表作有《赶街》《沉思》《汲水的女孩》《篱旁》《寺前》《古老的河湾》等等。

　　Appreciation of World Watercolor Paintings

　　Fu Qizhong is from Wuhan， Hubel Province. He is a professor of Yunnan Arts University and the head of Yunnan Watercolor and Gouache Art Committee. He is one of the most influential contemporary portrait watercolorists in China. Fu Qizhong‘s watercolor paintings are different from other watercolorists’. His paintings are not fresh or lucid， as historically defined. They combine Chinese and Western paintings， with new development in the arl technique. He does his utmost to express the figure‘s soul and feelings， and the joys and sorrows of life. He has adopted many methods that he can use for reference in his watercolor paintings. One foreign friend saw his paintings and wondered how they had been drawn. Many portraits he drew are about the life and custom of the Tibetan people. Audience are often moved by the simple， honest images and deep feelings.

　　The painting Drawing Water is a work of arl which depicts the Yunnan minority nationality. Unable to go to school， the little girl is weather beaten after doing manual labor day after day. She is drawing water in front of the multihued stone wall. The old surroundings， tender seedlings， long years， murmuring stream， all these scenes fire mixed with emotions， which sets people thinking. The first step of drawing this picture was to paint the preliminary sketch in pencil carefully， being scrupulous enough to meet the requirements of the creative intention. The process and method of coloring was to paint the surroundings first and then the figure. The texture of the surroundings was made with the method of printing and other methods to produce the effect of being old， using a sponge to spread and dye to paint the texture of the stones. When the background was completed， he began to draw the figure elaborately. Although he also tried to depict the charm of water， he didn’t emphasize it， which broke down the old convention. He focused on depicting the figure and surroundings with color， and expressing the theme of the painting. If necessary， he would use various methods to show the theme， such as texturing， spreading， dotting， dyeing， printing， waxing， over dyeing， precipitating， and all kinds of texturing methods. He said， “I love all the things that embody vigorousness， firmness， broadness and deepness. I get very excited when I taking my painting brush， and I‘ll forget all other things. am an expressionist of the soul. “This is where he is difierent from others.

　　Fu Qizhong thinks that”Reality is stern and the life force is strong. It is the indomitable life force under severe circumstances that I really want to express and praise. “Every portrait of Fu Qizhong， no matter it shows the hardships or joys of life， no matter it’s the usual”going to a fair“， or coming back from herding cattle in twilight at sunset， or the innocent and lively child， is a poem of the aspirations of the painter and the frontier minority nationalities. During the hard journey of life， they have never stopped fighting with nature bravely and tried to make themselves live a better life. They work at sunrise and rest at sunset. Each tableau of the ordinary life detail that the painter depicts impresses the audience deeply and touches them greatly. His representative works are Going to a Fair， Thinking， The Girl Drawing Water， Beside the Fence， In front of the Temple， Old River Bend and so on.
