If a painting is a child conceived by the painter, then the most difficult thing is undoubtedly to name the child. For a successful painting, it is important whether the painting is good or not, but a good name will also add a lot of color to the painting. When we read the title of an excellent painting, sometimes we will smile knowingly, and sometimes we will be amazed. Before naming your painting, you should first understand the intention of your painting, think about the symbols of the painting object, and then choose an appropriate name based on the content of your painting. Good painting names can be roughly divided into the following types: 1. Appropriate to the theme of the picture. According to the content of the picture, name whatever the content of the picture is, matter-of-fact, direct, and clear at a glance. 2. Metaphors and comparisons Metaphors and comparisons can make the things being described vivid and vivid, and deepen people’s impressions. When using it to name a painting, it can make it easy for people to understand. For example, Joan Miró's abstract painting "Carnival of Clowns". Most people may not be able to see what is drawn in this picture, but when they see the name and the clown-like image in the picture, the picture immediately becomes vivid. 3. Use fables or stories. A good painting usually has a higher intention. With the help of a fable or story that is deeply rooted in people's hearts, people can immediately understand the painter's intention and understand the theme and content contained in it. 4. Musical painting Musical painting means that the viewer seems to hear music or sound when appreciating the painting. Because sound cannot be seen in a picture, paintings are often named with words related to music or sound. The most famous paintings are Kandinsky's paintings and Miller's "Evening Bell".
5. Pun Pun is also a rhetorical technique. In a certain language environment, words and sentences have double meanings by relying on the connection of phonetics (homophonic puns) or semantics (semantic puns). Puns make the work more interesting and enhance the theme. Puns can be divided into two types: homophonic puns and semantic puns. Qi Baishi's "Everything goes as you wish", "Everything goes well", "A Picture of Hundreds of Wealths", and "Everything goes well" use homophonic puns.
