Asian Landscape

Despite the presence of many styles in wall painting, landscape painting remains as the most sought and popular in Asian art. Natural landscape of the continent is irresistible and so are the arts inspired by it.

Asia has everything you need to create magnificent gardens, forests, waters, etc. via art. In here, seasons vary to create snow, heavy swaying of leaves while slanted raindrops are a sight to behold from the windows. We cannot dismiss the sands of the pyramids, as well. They are not pain in the eye not unless there is a sandstorm where wind directs the sands to your eyes. Otherwise, they are Asian’s very unique landscape and quite a sight to behold. From classic style of landscape to contemporary ones, art lovers herald Asian art when it comes to landscape. Many of these arts are decorative while other arts from different continents may be good with expressive art or art used to be more of a voice than being decorative, Asian art on the other hand focuses on the good vibes of beauty.  As a continent constituted with third-world countries, depicting poverty and other negativity will do the people no good. It is just like adding insult to injury when there is much beauty to be seen and to be tapped to be of good use to Asian human psychology.

Speaking of providing good vibes to beautiful people of Asia who seldom see beauty because of poverty, then there must really be a means to open the mind of the people that Asia is not bad at all. In fact, it is otherwise.  Landscape painting originated from looking at the beauty in the surroundings. This will not be popular to Asian art if beauty is not seen at all. But because of many ugly situations, people began to dismiss what they originally saw but replaced it with ugly ones, as well. Yet, artists from classic to now indefatigably insist that Asian art needs to be propagated with lovely Asian elements including its fantastic culture and traditions, as well as its natural beauty and this time via landscape painting.

The sands of the pyramids are Asian’s very own beauty. The tropical scenery of the orient and the clear waters of the pacific is truly the best in Asia. Talk about white everything and there is snow, too, in some parts. Despite Asia being heavily populated, natural resources left and right are preserved to attract tourists to visit. Budget on tourism is heavily allocated in most of the countries in Asia which means, Asian art is heralded to boost the economy, as well. Tourism is useless without art. Prior to marketing the beauty of a certain land, there should be an actual beauty to brag about.
