Peking Opera facial makeup originated from life. Everyone's facial organs are similar in shape and outline, and their physiological layout has certain rules. The texture of facial muscles is also closely related to age, physiology, experience and natural conditions of life. Therefore, the sketch of Peking Opera facial makeup is based on life and a summary of life.
For example, it is often said that people's faces are tanned, scared white, blushing, yellow and so on. They are not only the expression of the psychological activities and mental state of the characters in the play, but also the basis for determining the colors, lines, patterns and patterns of Facebook.
Although Facebook comes from life, it is an enlargement and exaggeration of real life. The exaggeration and image description of historical figures in romance novels and rap art are also the basis of Peking Opera facial makeup.
For example, Guan Yu's phoenix eye and sleeping silkworm eyebrow, Zhang Fei's leopard head eye and Zhao Kuangyin's face are all absorbed by the makeup of Chinese opera, especially on the stage of Beijing opera.
