Abstract：

Contemporary Chinese watercolor incorporates the aesthetic ideas of traditional Chinese painting in composition, and its thinking path is both in line with the traditional Chinese context and contemporary artistic context, achieving a return to the value of traditional Chinese culture. This article conducts a series of studies on the integration of the aesthetic composition of Chinese painting in watercolor painting, exploring the aesthetic theory and philosophical origins of Chinese painting composition, as well as its application and extension in Chinese watercolor painting. From theory to practice, it constructs a national language vocabulary for Chinese watercolor creation from multiple levels.
