Abstract

Chinese landscape painting sketching holds a crucial position in the art education of higher institutions, acting as a key medium for preserving and transmitting the essence of traditional Chinese art. In contemporary art education, the teaching of landscape sketching fulfills a dual role: it not only imparts technical skills but also nurtures aesthetic values. A well-executed landscape painting sketching curriculum can greatly enhance students’ practical abilities and their creative approach to landscape painting. This paper, grounded in the theoretical framework of art education, integrates traditional painting theories with modern pedagogical practices to systematically explore the value and the challenges of landscape painting sketching education. To improve the quality of instruction, teachers must address the current issues within landscape sketching teaching by developing targeted strategies for improvement. Furthermore, this paper proposes practical strategies for teaching Chinese landscape painting sketching, providing a valuable reference for future research in art education.
