Emotional Performance in Illustrated Art Picture Books: Taking The Fat Ladys Skirt as an Example

Abstract

Due to the rapid increase in material and living standards, people are facing the distress of obesity, including children and adolescents; however, their impact is not just that their appearance becomes bloated. At present, there have been many investigations and studies on maintaining a healthy body shape and encourage people to maintain healthy living habits, but few are focusing on the inner emotions of the obese. Based on the research experiment, the work studied the psychological changes and emotional analysis of obese people. We tried to promote the understanding of obese people to the public through the art form of illustrated picture books. People are appealed to compare their hearts and let go of their prejudice against obese people; meanwhile, it can enrich the research and techniques in illustration and draw on digging out the characters’ emotional changes. The inner feelings of obese people are often inferior and sensitive. When using artistic means to express the characters’ inner emotions, it is necessary to consider whether the layers of the story can be used to dig the heart of the to-do list. In the portrayal of the picture, the following aspects are also conducive to promoting emotion and the rendering of the atmosphere: the appearance and action of the characters, the color of the picture, the environment where the characters are located, and the addition of relevant details.
