碩士 === 中國文化大學 === 美術學系 === 102 === I am a writer who grew up in a beautiful rural area. I am so fond of simple rural life and the beautiful nature. Nanzhuang, a small countryside spot located in Miaoli Country is an intimate neighborhood that I 've spent a lot of time for. The great mountains, the ancient footpaths, the clear streams, the peculiar shaped rocks,the peaceful ponds,the lofty trees is what the variety you may obtain altogether in this region.Thus, the attractiveness of Nanzhuang was affirmed as the title of my thesis. The influences of the Western painters John Constable (17761837), Camille Pissarro (18301903), and Jean Baptiste Camille Corot（1796-1875), Eastern thinker Laozi, Southern Song Dynasty painter Ma Yuan, and life experiences contribute to the creative ideas and manifestations of writers regarding painting theories and techniques. First, I describe the creative ideas, natural conceptions, conceptions of existence and nonexistence, and conceptions of natural colors, emphasizing the depiction of the sky. In addition, I provide examples and compare the work of writers with that of painters who considerably influenced these writers. I then discuss approaches to picture composition, applying painting skills, and choosing painting subjects and compare the paintings of John Constable and Camille Pissarro to the beauty of Nanzhuang. I divide the aspects of creation into five categories: mountains, streams and odd-shaped rocks, painted beams and carved beams, trails, and landscapes of lakes and mountains. I describe writers’ feelings and ideas during the creative process and analyze a series of paintings.
