What
iIt
is said that this special art derived from the Chinese opera has different
origins. But no matter what its origin is, the facial painting is worth
appreciating and full of artistic value.
The colors
of the makeup are heavy, and follow specified designs for meaning.
The paintings
are presentations of roles' characters, for example,
a
red face usually depicts the role's bravery, uprightness and loyalty;
a white face explains the role's sinisterness, treachery and
guile; a green face describes surly stubbornness, impetuosity and
lack of self-restraint.
In addition,
the pattern of the facial painting reveals the role's information too.
In a word, the unique makeup in the opera monologizes on the stage oicelessly.
