Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of bamboo handicraft production technology, and in particular to a method for creating images using bamboo strip inlay and the bamboo strip inlay itself. Background Technology

[0002] Bamboo, with its natural texture, soft color, and environmentally friendly properties, is widely used in handicrafts. Among the many bamboo handicrafts, bamboo filament inlay, with its elegant color and refreshing charm, has become a popular choice for sophisticated home furnishings (e.g., doors, interior walls, beds, screens, hanging screens, bookshelves, lamps, or ornaments). [1]-[2] An important component of ).

[0003] Bamboo strip inlay, also known as "bamboo wire fence," is a craft art piece made by carving Chinese characters, landscapes, flowers, birds, insects, fish, and figures in relief on white peach wood boards, then using mortise and tenon joints on the back to inlay the boards onto a base made of bamboo strips, and finally embellishing the work with relief carving techniques. [2] Because the bamboo strip inlaid panels exhibit a light and translucent three-dimensional effect under light, this handicraft not only possesses magnificent decorative elements but also embodies understated nobility and luxury.

[0004] The traditional craftsmanship of bamboo strip inlay is very intricate and can be divided into two main steps: The first step is to make the bamboo strip baseboard to form the background pattern 1 (see...). Figure 1a and Figure 1b Generally, two types of bamboo strips, 11 and 12, of different lengths are sawn from selected high-quality bamboo. Equidistant tenons are then sawn into these 2mm thick, 3mm wide strips. The two sides are then joined together using a cross-hatching method to form the bamboo strip baseboard. The longer strip 11 serves as the baseboard framework, and the shorter strip 12 forms the baseboard pattern, with the resulting geometric pattern serving as the background texture 1. The second step is to inlay a relief 21 onto the baseboard to form the image portion 2 (see...). Figure 1b The process involves first carving a relief using white peach wood, wrought iron, or, in modern times, pyrophyllite or linden wood. Then, using mortise and tenon joints, the relief is inlaid onto the background section 1, creating a scene resembling a wood carving. This results in a beautiful bamboo inlay craft. Therefore, bamboo inlay holds an important position and value in both the arts and traditional crafts, and was included in the second batch of Zhejiang Provincial Intangible Cultural Heritage List in 2007.

[0005] However, with societal changes, the bamboo inlay technique, due to its complex process, long production time, low efficiency, and high price, is facing the crisis of being lost. Although since the late 20th century, some steps have begun to be machine-processed, improving production efficiency, the creation of the background patterns and the carving and inlaying of the white peach wood image still requires manual work. [1]Furthermore, the manual production of these stages requires a high level of skill and experience from the artisans, heavily relying on individual craftsmanship and making it difficult to achieve standardization and large-scale production.

[0006] Furthermore, the traditional bamboo inlay technique also has the following limitations in terms of expression and style: First, the colors are limited: they are mostly the original color of bamboo or a single carbonized color, making it difficult to express rich colors and gradient effects. Secondly, the precision of the image is limited, resulting in a weak sense of three-dimensionality and depth: For complex patterns and realistic paintings, traditional production methods cannot accurately represent their delicate outlines and changes in light and shadow, thus making it difficult to form effective visual depth and resulting in a relatively flat image. Third, the production model is fixed and the form of expression is monotonous: it cannot obtain the support of new technologies, such as being unable to integrate with digital design tools (such as modeling software and graphic design software) that are already widely used in the modern design field. Therefore, it cannot break through the limitations of traditional thinking, resulting in insufficient market competitiveness. [2] .

[0007] The aforementioned factors have all affected the inheritance and development of bamboo inlay techniques. Therefore, there is an urgent need for an innovative technology that can overcome these limitations, preserve the natural beauty of bamboo, achieve complex patterns and rich colors, and produce with high efficiency, so that this ancient craft can keep pace with the times and be well inherited and developed.

[0010] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the above-mentioned shortcomings of the prior art and provide a method for creating bamboo inlay paintings with strong three-dimensionality, rich colors, and delicate pattern expression, as well as the bamboo inlay paintings themselves. This greatly simplifies the process steps that originally relied on the skills and experience of craftsmen. Furthermore, the method for creating bamboo inlay paintings and the bamboo inlay paintings themselves are also suitable for standardized and large-scale production, thereby effectively improving the production efficiency of this traditional craft.

[0011] To achieve the above objectives, according to a first aspect of the present invention, a method for producing a bamboo inlay painting is provided, comprising the following embedding step: multiple patterned bamboo pieces are translucently embedded into multiple grids of the background pattern corresponding to the image portion of the bamboo inlay painting, wherein each grid contains one patterned bamboo piece, the patterned bamboo piece comprising a patterned portion for forming the image portion and a support portion that contacts the inner wall of the grid to embed the patterned bamboo piece in the grid, the patterned portion having a different shape, structure, and / or orientation than the grid, and the image portion of the bamboo inlay painting can be formed by the arrangement of patterned bamboo pieces of different colors within the multiple grids and / or the density arrangement of the patterned bamboo pieces per unit area.

[0012] In some preferred embodiments of the invention, when the patterned bamboo piece is embedded in the grid, the support portion contacts only a portion of the inner wall of the grid.

[0013] Furthermore, the method for creating the image of the bamboo inlay painting also includes, before performing the inlay step, making the composition bamboo piece according to the shape and size of the pattern, or making and assembling the composition elements used to constitute the composition bamboo piece.

[0014] In some preferred embodiments of the present invention, the plurality of patterned bamboo pieces or the patterned elements constituting the plurality of patterned bamboo pieces are manufactured to have a uniform shape, structure, and size. This makes the patterned bamboo pieces or the patterned elements "standardized building blocks," enabling interchangeability between the patterned bamboo pieces or the patterned elements, thereby not only simplifying the manufacturing process of the image portion but also making the manufacturing process suitable for standardization and mass production.

[0015] More preferably, for the bamboo component assembled from the design elements, the manufacturing and assembly steps specifically include: manufacturing the design elements with a uniform length, and allowing the design elements to be interlocked in pairs along their width to form a "cross-shaped" bamboo component. The advantage of this structural design of the bamboo component is that the combined structure is self-centering and highly stable. When the design elements are interlocked in pairs, a tight "hugging" effect is formed, with the connection point located at the physical center, resulting in an extremely stable structure.

[0016] Furthermore, the compositional element, having a uniform length, is made to have an outer contour shape that is symmetrically arranged on the plane of its width, with its central axis along its length as the axis of symmetry.

[0017] In some preferred embodiments of the present invention, the steps of manufacturing and assembling the design element specifically include: making the bamboo strips (i.e., bamboo strips) used to prepare the background texture of the bamboo inlay painting into design elements of uniform length, and making a mortise at 1 / 2 length of each design element, so that the design elements can be interlocked in pairs along their width to form a "cross" patterned bamboo piece. This design element has a simple and stable structure, is easy to standardize, and has high interchangeability; any two design elements can be freely spliced ​​together, greatly facilitating production and assembly.

[0018] Accordingly, further, in some preferred embodiments of the present invention, the method for making the image of the bamboo inlay painting also includes the step of making the background pattern portion before performing the inlay step, wherein the plurality of patterns used for translucently inlaying the plurality of patterned bamboo pieces are made to have a uniform shape and size.

[0019] Furthermore, in some preferred embodiments of the present invention, the method for producing the bamboo inlay painting further includes a step of drying the bamboo strips before producing the bamboo inlay painting. This can be achieved by placing the prepared bamboo strips in a well-ventilated and dry place for at least three months of natural sun drying, or by using a low-temperature oven for artificial drying, ultimately controlling the moisture content of the bamboo strips to 8%-12%. This step ensures the processing accuracy of the bamboo strips in subsequent mortise and tenon joint processing and enables the bamboo inlay painting to remain stable and free from cracking and deformation over a long period.

[0020] Furthermore, the method for creating the image of this bamboo inlay painting also includes a step of coloring the bamboo piece or element after it has been prepared. To achieve rich color expression, various processes can be used to mass-produce the standardized bamboo pieces. Corresponding coloring methods may include, but are not limited to, plant dye immersion and high-temperature carbonization coloring.

[0021] For example, in some embodiments of the present invention, the bamboo piece or element may be colored using a carbonized color scheme, with a range of colors from light yellowish-brown to dark coffee, to mimic the variations of ink tones in Chinese painting, such as "burnt, thick, heavy, light, and clear." The coloring method may involve placing the bamboo piece in a temperature-controlled electric kiln and baking it for 30-60 minutes, precisely controlling the temperature between 180℃ and 220℃.

[0022] In other embodiments of the invention, the bamboo composition or compositional element can be colored using an immersion dyeing system, possessing vibrant colors such as red, blue, and green, to represent a specific theme. The coloring method can be achieved through an immersion dyeing process using environmentally friendly plant-based or chemical dyes.

[0023] Furthermore, in some embodiments of the present invention, the method for creating the bamboo inlay painting further includes a step of digitally processing the target image before performing the inlay step, wherein the target image is pixelated and the image is decomposed into a grid composed of multiple "pixels", each "pixel" can correspond to one or more translucent bamboo pieces that are inlaid in the grid.

[0024] Furthermore, the method for creating the bamboo inlay painting also includes a step of surface reinforcement treatment of the bamboo inlay painting after completing the inlay step.

[0025] In some embodiments of the present invention, a fixative can be applied to the surface of the finished bamboo inlay painting. This fixative, after curing, effectively prevents the bamboo elements from loosening or falling off within the grid pattern and forms a protective layer that provides moisture and insect protection. Preferably, the fixative can be diluted polyvinyl acetate white glue (commonly known as wood glue), preferably with a dilution ratio of glue:water = 1:10 (volume ratio). Within this dilution range, the glue has good fluidity, allowing it to fully penetrate the bamboo elements and the grid pattern, as well as (if necessary) the tiny gaps between the design elements, forming a strong internal bond without forming an excessively thick reflective film on the surface. Therefore, it can preserve the natural texture of the bamboo to the greatest extent possible. After curing, the glue effectively prevents the bamboo elements from loosening or falling off and provides a certain degree of moisture and insect protection.

[0026] According to a second aspect of the present invention, a bamboo inlay painting is provided, comprising a background pattern portion and a picture portion, wherein the picture portion is prepared according to the picture production method of the bamboo inlay painting described above. Specifically, the picture portion comprises a plurality of patterned bamboo pieces that are translucently embedded within a plurality of patterns in the background pattern portion corresponding to the picture portion of the bamboo inlay painting, wherein one patterned bamboo piece is embedded within each pattern, the patterned bamboo piece comprising a patterned portion for forming the picture portion and a support portion that contacts the inner wall of the pattern to embed the patterned bamboo piece within the pattern, the patterned portion having a different shape, structure and / or orientation from the pattern, and the picture portion of the bamboo inlay painting can be formed by the arrangement of patterned bamboo pieces of different colors within the plurality of patterns and / or the density arrangement of the patterned bamboo pieces per unit area.

[0027] In some preferred embodiments of the invention, the support portion contacts only a portion of the inner wall of the lattice.

[0028] In some preferred embodiments of the present invention, the plurality of patterned bamboo pieces or the patterned elements constituting the plurality of patterned bamboo pieces have a uniform shape, structure and size.

[0029] More preferably, the plurality of patterned bamboo pieces are assembled from patterned elements of uniform length, wherein the patterned elements are configured to be able to be interlocked and matched in pairs along their width direction to form the patterned bamboo pieces in a "cross" shape.

[0030] Furthermore, the compositional element, having a uniform length, has an outer contour shape that is symmetrically arranged on the plane containing its width, with its central axis along its length as the axis of symmetry.

[0031] In some preferred embodiments of the invention, the pattern element is made of bamboo strips used to prepare the background texture of the bamboo inlay painting, and a recess is provided at 1 / 2 length of each pattern element, so that the pattern elements can be interlocked and matched with each other in pairs along their width direction to form the pattern bamboo piece in a "cross" shape.

[0032] Furthermore, in some preferred embodiments of the present invention, the length of the graphic element is 2cm-2.6cm.

[0033] Accordingly, further, in some preferred embodiments of the invention, the plurality of grids used for translucently embedding the plurality of patterned bamboo pieces have a uniform shape and size.

[0034] Furthermore, in some preferred embodiments of the present invention, the bamboo strips used to prepare the bamboo inlay painting have a moisture content of 8%-12%.

[0035] In some embodiments of the present invention, the bamboo composition or compositional element may have the natural color of bamboo, a carbonized color system ranging from light yellowish-brown to dark brown, an immersion dyeing system achieved by using environmentally friendly plant dyes or chemical dyes through an immersion dyeing process, or a combination thereof. The natural color retains the natural luster of high-quality bamboo; the carbonized color system, ranging from light yellowish-brown to dark brown, can be used to imitate the variations of ink tones in Chinese painting, such as "burnt, thick, heavy, light, and clear"; the immersion dyeing system, such as bright colors like red, blue, and green, can be used to represent specific patterns or themes.

[0036] In some preferred embodiments of the invention, the surface of the bamboo inlay painting is covered with a fixing agent for surface reinforcement. This fixing agent prevents the bamboo elements in the design from loosening or falling off within the grid pattern and forms a protective layer that provides moisture and insect protection. For example, the fixing agent can be diluted polyvinyl acetate white glue (commonly known as wood glue), preferably with a dilution ratio of glue:water = 1:10 (volume ratio).

[0037] In this invention, by translucently embedding multiple bamboo pieces with different shapes, structures, and / or orientations than the patterned sections into the multiple patterns of the background corresponding to the image portion, the image portion of the bamboo inlay painting can be formed by the arrangement of the bamboo pieces with different colors within the multiple patterns and / or the density of the bamboo pieces per unit area. Compared with traditional bamboo inlay, the image production method and the bamboo inlay painting of this invention achieve the following beneficial effects: 1. This not only allows the craft to inherit the light and translucent characteristics unique to traditional bamboo inlay, but also solves the technical problems of its monotonous colors, weak pattern layering, and difficulty in expressing delicate brushstrokes, thus enriching its artistic expression.

[0038] 2. In the method for creating bamboo inlay paintings according to the present invention, it is also suitable to use modern digital image design tools to create and design the image parts, realizing the integration of the image creation and design of this traditional technique with modern technology. As a result, not only are the colors of the image enriched, but the outlines, colors and light and dark relationships of complex images such as photography and oil paintings can also be accurately reproduced, completing the leap from traditional imagery to modern realism in bamboo craft painting.

[0039] 3. The production process of the image part, which originally relied on the skills and experience of craftsmen, has been simplified, making the skill accessible to more interested people and easier to pass on.

[0040] 4. Furthermore, the simplified image production process allows for standardization by unifying the shape, structure, and size of "drawing elements" (i.e., compositional bamboo pieces or compositional elements), thereby enabling most processes to be completed mechanically or through assembly line operations, significantly improving production efficiency, reducing costs, and allowing this high-end art form to reach a wider market.

[0041] It is evident that the bamboo inlay painting method and its production process according to the present invention represent a revolutionary expansion of traditional techniques. It completely transforms the traditional craft's monochromatic and simple design, successfully for the first time mastering the profound and complex artistic realm of ink painting, marking a new historical stage for this ancient technique capable of expressing sophisticated aesthetic imagery and complex patterns.

Detailed Implementation

[0053] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the following detailed description, through embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, further illustrates the method for creating bamboo inlay paintings and the bamboo inlay paintings themselves. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the invention. It should be noted that the various objects in the embodiment drawings are drawn to scale for ease of illustration, not to scale of actual components.

[0054] like Figure 2a , Figure 2b , Figure 3a and Figure 3bAn exemplary landscape bamboo inlay painting according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention is shown. As can be seen from the image, it not only inherits the light and translucent characteristics unique to traditional bamboo inlay, but also possesses a strong three-dimensional effect, rich colors, and delicate imagery. Among these features, in... Figure 3a Additionally, a white background is placed behind the bamboo inlay to clearly, and not limited to, illustrate the various bamboo components, patterns, and translucent interlocking forms according to the invention.

[0055] According to the present invention, bamboo inlay painting is a "modern" bamboo inlay craft made on the basis of traditional bamboo inlay techniques by using an improved picture production method (i.e., the picture part production method) according to the present invention.

[0056] Therefore, both traditional bamboo strip inlay and bamboo strip painting include a background pattern 1 composed of bamboo strips, and there are open spaces between the bamboo strips forming the background pattern 1, namely, the grid 13. It should be understood that, depending on the different combinations of long bamboo strips 11 and short bamboo strips 12, or between long bamboo strips 11, the background pattern 1 can have various geometric patterns such as swastikas and rectangular patterns in traditional bamboo strip inlay, which will not be elaborated here.

[0057] According to the present invention, the image portion of the bamboo filament inlay can be a pattern and / or a picture.

[0058] In this invention, the term "pattern" refers to a repeating pattern of devices, whether regular or irregular, such as floral patterns, geometric shapes, animal shapes, etc., which emphasizes regular structures such as symmetry and repetition.

[0059] In this invention, the term "picture" refers to a realistic representation or innovative expression of the natural or subjective world, which may include complex perspective, lighting and shadow and detailed depiction.

[0060] Compared to traditional bamboo inlay where the image portion 2 is formed by relief 21, the image portion 2 of bamboo inlay painting includes multiple patterned bamboo pieces 22 that are translucently embedded within multiple grids 13 of the corresponding background pattern portion 1. Each grid 13 contains one patterned bamboo piece 22. Each patterned bamboo piece 22 includes a pattern section 3 for forming the image portion 2, which can construct the image portion 2 of the bamboo inlay painting through the arrangement of patterned bamboo pieces 22 of different colors within the multiple grids 13 and / or the density of the patterned bamboo pieces 22 per unit area. For example… Figure 2a As shown, the sparse areas are open and transparent, forming blank or light-colored areas in the picture, while the dense areas form dark or main areas. In this way, not only is the artistic expression enriched, but the process steps that originally relied on the skills and experience of craftsmen are also greatly simplified.

[0061] like Figure 2a , Figure 2b , Figure 3a and Figure 3b The image portion 2, composed of bamboo pieces 22 arranged in a "cross" shape according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, is shown.

[0062] According to the present invention, the composition part 3 has a different shape, structure and / or setting direction from the pattern 13. It can not only form the most basic visual elements constituting the picture on the originally transparent background part 1, but also ensure that the picture part 2 of the bamboo inlay painting has the characteristic of light transmission, so as to match the light style of bamboo painting.

[0063] According to the present invention, the patterned bamboo piece 22 further includes a support portion 4, which is used to secure the patterned bamboo piece 22 into the patterned grid 13 through contact with the inner wall of the grid 13. In some preferred embodiments of the present invention, when the patterned bamboo piece 22 is secured into the patterned grid 13, the support portion 4 only contacts a portion of the inner wall of the grid 13. Through this method, not only is the translucent securing of the patterned bamboo piece 22 into the patterned grid 13 achieved, but the image portion 2 of the bamboo inlay painting also ensures that it has more sufficient light-transmitting space 5, thereby better preserving the light and translucent characteristics unique to traditional bamboo inlay.

[0064] For example, but not limited to this, the form in which the bamboo piece 22 can be translucently embedded in the grid 13 can also be adapted to different shapes, structures and / or orientations of the two, such as... Figure 6 As shown. Among them, in Figure 6 In figure a), the bamboo piece 22 has a different shape from the pattern 13; Figure 6 In figure b), although the bamboo component 22 and the grid 13 have the same outer contour shape, the bamboo component 22 has a grid-like openwork structure, and the bamboo component 22 and the grid 13 have different structures; Figure 6 In Figure c), although the bamboo component 22 and the lattice pattern 13 have the same shape, both being square, their orientations are different. Specifically, in... Figure 6 In Figures a) and c), the support portion 4 of the bamboo piece 22 is in contact with only a portion of the inner wall of the lattice 13.

[0065] For example, Figure 4 and Figure 5The diagrams illustrate the pattern element 221 according to some preferred embodiments of the invention, and the pattern bamboo piece 22 formed by the interlocking and matching of the pattern elements 221 in a "cross" shape via mortises 6. The pattern element 221 has an outer contour shape symmetrically arranged on its length-direction central axis in the plane containing its width. This symmetrical design allows for high interchangeability between the pattern elements 221, facilitating production and assembly.

[0066] It should be understood that the compositional element 221 may also have an outer contour shape on the plane containing its width, but not symmetrically arranged with its central axis along its length as the axis of symmetry, for example, as Figure 7 As shown, one side of its length axis is rectangular, while the other side is hemispherical. This structural design allows the two images in the bamboo inlay painting to present different visual effects due to the different composition of the bamboo pieces, especially under light. It should be understood that those skilled in the art can choose to design the outer contour shape according to the needs of image expression, which will not be elaborated here.

[0067] Furthermore, it should be known that, based on Figures 4-7 As can be seen from the illustration of the pattern element, the pattern bamboo piece, and the way the pattern element is combined to form the pattern bamboo piece according to the present invention, the pattern bamboo piece can be any form in which the pattern bamboo piece according to the present invention is embedded in the grid in a one-to-one correspondence and in a light-transmitting manner, and forms a light-transmitting picture portion according to the present invention. Those skilled in the art can choose other variations as needed, which will not be elaborated here.

[0068] The following examples, exemplified by Examples 1-4, illustrate the method for producing the image portion of the bamboo inlay painting according to the present invention.

[0069] It should be understood that the image portion produced by the method according to the present invention can be the entire image or a portion of the bamboo inlay painting. Accordingly, the plurality of patterned bamboo pieces that are translucently embedded in the plurality of grids to constitute the image portion can refer to all of the patterned bamboo pieces or only a portion of the patterned bamboo pieces. Example 1

[0070] This embodiment 1 illustrates a method for producing the image portion of a landscape bamboo inlay painting according to the present invention, that is, a method for producing the image portion of the bamboo inlay painting. Specifically, it includes the following steps: Step S1, Preparation and Pretreatment of Bamboo Strips for Preparing the Bamboo Inlay Painting (including, for example, the compositional bamboo piece 22 or the compositional element 221, or further, the background texture portion 1). This may specifically include: S11. Selecting and splitting bamboo: Select 3-4 year old moso bamboo, take the middle layer of bamboo suitable for making fine bamboo small items, and process it into bamboo strips with a width of 1.5mm and a thickness of 1mm according to the required size.

[0071] S12. Preferably, the bamboo strips are dried: the bamboo strips are placed in a ventilated and dry place for at least 3 months of natural sun drying, or artificial drying is carried out in a low-temperature oven, and the moisture content is strictly controlled between 8% and 12% to ensure the accuracy of subsequent mortise and tenon processing and the long-term stability of the product without cracking or deformation.

[0072] It should be understood that the above are preferred embodiments of the present invention. The processes for preparing and pretreating small bamboo parts suitable for use as patterned bamboo components or elements are relatively mature in this technical field, and those skilled in the art can select appropriate methods based on processing needs.

[0073] Step S2A: Create the bamboo component 22 of the design. This may specifically include: S21A. Making the bamboo piece 22 with the design: Based on the size of the grid 13 of the background part 1 corresponding to the image part 2, use a carving machine to cut the bamboo piece into the required bamboo piece 22 with the design, for example, as... Figure 6 Bamboo piece 22 in the composition shown in a) or c) of the diagram.

[0074] It should be understood that in this invention, the design and manufacture of the patterned bamboo piece can be any conventional method that enables the small bamboo piece (i.e., the patterned bamboo piece) to be translucently embedded in the patterned bamboo piece. No restrictions are imposed here, and those skilled in the art can choose to use it as needed.

[0075] S22A. According to the needs of the picture, color the bamboo composition piece 22: divide the bamboo composition piece 22 into three batches: one batch retains the original color (to represent the bright part of the sky), one batch is carbonized at 200℃ for 40 minutes (to represent the middle tone of the mountain), and one batch is carbonized at 220℃ for 60 minutes (to represent the dark part and shadow of the trees).

[0076] Step S3: Create the image portion 2 of the bamboo inlay painting. This can specifically include: According to the composition of the picture, the multiple bamboo pieces 22 of different colors are embedded in the multiple patterns 13 of the background pattern part 1 corresponding to the picture part 2 in a light-transmitting manner.

[0077] Step S4: Perform surface reinforcement treatment on the completed artwork. This may specifically include: Dilute white glue at a ratio of 1:10, apply it evenly to the entire surface, and let it cure in a dust-free environment for 24 hours.

[0078] It should be understood that the above-described surface reinforcement treatment steps are only preferred embodiments of the present invention. In the present invention, the surface reinforcement treatment method and the fixing agent used can be any surface treatment method and fixing agent for bamboo products in this technical field that can prevent the bamboo parts from loosening or falling off and play a certain role in moisture prevention and protection. Those skilled in the art can select and use them as needed.

[0079] Step S5: Mounting the painting. This may specifically include: After the surface has cured, it is mounted in a conventional manner to obtain a bamboo silk landscape painting with distinct layers and unique texture.

[0080] The method for creating the aforementioned image portion should be understood to be applicable to either already created background textures or to include steps involved in creating the background textures. In the latter case, any conventional methods for creating background textures existing in the art can be used, and will not be elaborated upon here.

[0081] Compared to traditional bamboo inlay techniques, the method according to the present invention not only enriches its artistic expression but also greatly simplifies the image-making process that originally relied on the skills and experience of artisans, making the technique accessible to more interested people and thus easier to pass on. Example 2

[0082] The method for producing the image portion of the bamboo inlay painting shown in Embodiment 2 differs from Embodiment 1 in that, in Embodiment 2, the bamboo composition is assembled from the compositional elements, and specifically includes the following steps: Step S2B: Fabricate the compositional element 221 and assemble it into the compositional bamboo piece 22. This may specifically include: S21B. Making and assembling the composition element 221: According to the size of the grid 13 of the background part 1 corresponding to the picture part 2, the bamboo strip is cut into the required composition element 221 using a precision carving machine, and a recess 6 is processed along its width direction so that the composition element 221 can be inserted and matched with each other in pairs along its width direction to form the "cross" composition bamboo piece 22.

[0083] It should be understood that the above is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention to achieve the simplest operation of the process steps. In the present invention, the design, fabrication and combination of the pattern elements can be any conventional method that can assemble at least two small bamboo pieces into a patterned bamboo piece that can be light-transmittingly embedded in the grid, and there are no restrictions. Those skilled in the art can choose to use it as needed.

[0084] S22B. According to the needs of the picture, color the made composition element 221: divide the composition element 221 into three batches: one batch retains the original color (to represent the bright part of the sky), one batch is carbonized at 200℃ for 40 minutes (to represent the middle tone of the mountain), and one batch is carbonized at 220℃ for 60 minutes (to represent the dark part and shadow of the tree).

[0085] S23B. According to the picture, combine two of the same color composition elements 221 to form the composition bamboo piece 22. Example 3

[0086] The method for producing the image portion of the bamboo inlay painting shown in Embodiment 3 differs from Embodiments 1 and 2 in that, in Embodiment 3, it preferably further includes a step of digitally processing the target image. This step can be performed before producing and assembling the compositional element, or, if the compositional element does not need to be changed, before the inlay step. Accordingly, the method for producing the image portion according to the present invention may include the following steps: Step S0: Select a digital landscape photo, and pixelate the target image on the computer. Decompose the image into a grid composed of individual "pixels". Each "pixel" corresponds to one or more "cross" compositional elements 22.

[0087] It should be understood that the step number "S0" here only indicates that the step occurs before step S2A or S3, that is, before the fabrication and assembly of the design element, or before the snap-fit ​​step, and has no clear sequential relationship with step S1 mentioned above.

[0088] In this embodiment 3, by using modern digital image design tools to create and design the image portion of bamboo inlay painting, not only are the colors of the image enriched, but the outlines, colors and light and dark relationships of complex images such as photography and oil paintings can also be accurately reproduced, realizing the integration of the image creation and design of this traditional technique with modern technology. Example 4

[0089] The method for producing the image portion of the bamboo inlay painting shown in Embodiment 4 is a further improvement based on Embodiments 2 and 3. By unifying some or all of the compositional elements, it also makes the production process suitable for standardization and large-scale production.

[0090] Accordingly, the method for producing the image portion according to the present invention may include the following steps: Step S21C: Fabricating and assembling the design element 221: Based on the dimensions of the pattern 13 with a uniform shape and size in the background pattern 1, use a precision carving machine to cut bamboo strips into short bamboo strips 221 with a uniform length of 3-16mm. At half the length of each strip, a recessed mortise 6 is machined along its width direction, as shown below. Figure 4 As shown.

[0091] It should be understood that the above is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention, to further simplify the operation of this process step. In the present invention, the combination of the pattern elements can be any conventional method that can assemble at least two small bamboo pieces into a patterned bamboo piece that can be light-transmittingly embedded in the grid, and there is no limitation herein. Those skilled in the art can choose to use it as needed.

[0092] Step S22C: Color the created composition element 221 according to the needs of the image, as described in Example 3.

[0093] Step S23C: After completing the coloring process of the graphic element 221, the worker or automated equipment selects the graphic element 221 of the corresponding color according to the color information of each pixel in the digital image, and pairs the graphic elements 221 of the same color together along their width direction using the recesses 6 to form a combination as shown. Figure 5 The bamboo piece 22 shown is arranged in a "cross" pattern.

[0094] Step S3C: Based on the digital image, press and embed the assembled "cross" pattern bamboo pieces 22 of different colors one by one or in batches into the corresponding grid 13. The arrangement of the different colored pattern bamboo pieces 22 and the quantity (density) of the pattern bamboo pieces 22 per unit area together form a picture part 2 with strong visual impact and delicate layers.

[0095] It should be understood that the method for achieving standardization and large-scale production in this embodiment 4 is also applicable to the bamboo component 22 with uniform shape, structure and size.

[0096] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0097] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementations of the present invention, and while the descriptions are specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these modifications and improvements all fall within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of this patent should be determined by the appended claims.
