The Manifestation of Nature Truth in Landscape Painting

Abstract

In painting art, form unity and color is the realization of imaginary effigy which the painter creates it in his mind when encountering nature. Painting is not similar to music notes or scripts which refer to something other than it. Artistic figure creation is based on the artist perception, and or it is a naked inherence of the artist which is so- called openness of the artist in facing nature; the way in which nature as a subject reveals herself. Nature in mechanical viewpoint is taken as the object, while in art world nature is the object and the artist is the subject of nature. That to say it is the front posted of nature not visa versa. An artist listens to the whisper of nature and it is during such an interaction with nature that the subject visage of nature reveals its beauties and truths to the artist. Nature as an original entity is the antecedent of artistic creations and it is not reducible to the observer's limited mind (mankind limited perception). Beauty (pulchritude) is superficial cause and god names (elegance) which nature (cosmos) is its manifestation. In such a view in which the love of nature as a heavenly, eternal beloved creation and unique beauty is its fountain, nature stimulates inherence senses of the artist and imagination senses (artistic inherence) changes that performance into artistic form. Painting art work is the visualization of nature imaginary essence on the canvas which is put worth in a unique form and color and final composition of the work which reveals the harmony in the painting. The beauty of an artwork is exactly the same figure which the artist created. In visual arts especially in painting, beauty is identical to the very figure expression of the artist and it doesn't refer to anything other than itself. Painting is not referring picture to the subject (nature) rather it is an aesthetic quality which nature has been its subject. Such a quality has innate independence and should not be compared with any thing else (even nature). An artwork by nature is an artwork not in comparison with anything. A landscape painter while working may gain a complete perception of what he is trying to create (nature creation in the world of art) and arrives at perfect intuition. In such a case the stroke of the brush, composing, mixing, designing and contrasts the colors and shadows, and all techniques that the painter uses in creating lights and shadows and their distribution which is shown in the form of aesthetics form and colors directed by the artist intuition force. The artist with such an intuition and selflessness and the charm formed inside him/her creates an artwork. Nature appears in the intuition of the artist in a way that stimulates the artist's talent towards the configured figure in the artist imagination. In other word the love and passion of the artists drops the curtain from nature visage and uncovers the hidden beauties to the artist. The artist figurate this uncovered beauty.
