For the development of lanterns in China this year, the themes have gradually become more sci-fi and exquisite. In the same way, mythological and mythical beasts became commonplace.
In recent years, the art of Chinese lanterns has undergone a profound transformation and innovation, with this traditional art form regaining new vitality in modern society.

In the process of making lanterns, the most challenging part is the precise control of shape and color. Chinese lanterns are different from static sculptures. They are dynamic works of art, as if brought to life and able to shine at night. This unique art form requires that we must strive for excellence in every detail when creating, especially in the shape design and color matching, and can not tolerate any carelessness.
The shape design is the soul of the lantern art, which not only needs to reflect the theme and cultural connotation of the lantern, but also takes into account the visual effects of the lantern in different angles and light.
Designers have to delve into traditional culture and draw inspiration from it, while incorporating modern aesthetics to create looks that are both classical and modern. This requires the artist to have a deep cultural heritage and a keen aesthetic eye, as well as a deep understanding of material properties and production processes.
Color spraying is the external expression of the lantern art, which directly affects the ornamental effect and emotional transmission of the lantern. In the choice of color, we should not only consider the traditional cultural significance of color, but also consider the impact of color on human psychology. Each color has its own unique language and emotion, how to skillfully integrate these colors together to form a harmonious and rich level of visual effects, is a problem that every lantern maker must face.
