Aesthetic Features of Portrait Comics

Comics have developed from a single political comic to humorous comic and pluralistic comic, which enriches the artistic expression and aesthetic taste of comics. Comic not only has its own unique artistic characteristics, but also contains comedy, which shows that comic art has beautiful form and aesthetic value. When it comes to the aesthetic value of comic art, we must first understand its aesthetic characteristics.

So, what are the aesthetic characteristics of comic art? Comic art is different from other painting arts, and compared with other painting arts, it has its unique artistic and aesthetic characteristics. In content and form, the connotation and extension of comics are far greater than other painting arts, and its materials are extremely extensive, from the macro world to the micro world; From concrete to abstract; From form to consciousness, it can be expressed through cartoons. In the use of materials, it is not limited by painting types, such as oil painting, sculpture, printmaking and traditional Chinese painting. All painting methods are used by it, thus enriching the expression forms of comic art, therefore, comic art has aesthetic interest and value in both content and form.

In addition, due to the emergence of multi-comics, the expression forms of comic art are enriched. They are different from the creation rules of satirical cartoons and humorous cartoons in the spiritual core, and they are a new artistic expression form, such as black humor, absurd cartoons and avant-garde cartoons in cold humorous cartoons. What is particularly worth mentioning is the pioneering comic art that has just sprouted in China since 2 1 century. They are not the traditional comic style that people understand in form, but pay more attention to themselves in content. Avant-garde comic art has basically stripped off the characteristics of traditional comics, and it conveys strange dreams or virtual scary scenes to people, from which people can't feel the pleasure of appreciation at all. This metaphysical artistic concept conveys more incredible loss to people. However, the avant-garde comic art still retains the elements of irony and humor, breaking the traditional law of comic creation, and is a new art form reconstructed on the basis of irony and humor. Only when the appreciator crosses this gap of consciousness can he resonate with the author spiritually. This new field of comic art is worthy of our in-depth exploration and research, to explore its aesthetic characteristics and values, and to further expand the expression forms of comic art.
