Features: The painting of animals is currently in a period of steady development, but within this stability, there is a burgeoning surge of new explorations. It is still too early to predict future trends based on the current situation, but we can discern certain developmental trajectories:
① Diversified development. The explorations of contemporary animal painters on different paths have already foretold the inevitability of this trend.
② Further expansion and inheritance of traditional animal painting.
③ In-depth exploration and research in the theory of animal painting.
④ More extensive and profound research and reference to foreign art.
⑤ Deeper application of modern painting tools and materials.
In the process of animal painting's development, its ideological foundation can be observed. It must be based on the economic foundation and serve it, as the development of animal painting, like any other art, must adhere to deep engagement with life, portraying life, and drawing inspiration from life. From its objective conditions of development, it is evident that social stability, the development of productive forces, and economic prosperity will undoubtedly promote the development of culture and art. Today, in the new era of socialism, economic construction is flourishing, which is highly conducive to its development. Under these premises, we believe that animal painting will have an even broader and brighter future.
