Abstract

Background
Under the epidemic situation, people in trouble are constrained by various conditions, and their spiritual needs are gradually increasing. Art plays an increasingly important role in nurturing the resilience and creativity of life through spiritual transcendence. This paper discusses the viewer's appreciation of landscape painting from the perspective of art education, and uses different schools or representative personal landscape paintings to explore the different psychological reactions produced by the visual communication between the viewer and the works.

Subjects and Methods
Art therapy is a comprehensive discipline, spanning two disciplines: Art and psychology. It involves spiritual science, anthropology and sociology, so as to nourish human emotion, wisdom and imagination, and bring other psychotherapy effects. As the spiritual messenger of mankind, art cultivates our cultural ideal, exercises our toughness and stores energy for us to deal with difficult situations. Art appreciation can improve people's psychological quality and make people have the ability to stabilize their emotions and have a strong will. In this way, art appreciation can play a good role in psychological healing. At the same time, in the process of painting, we studied the regulating effect of this painting style on the mood of college students. We selected 60 students, including 30 males and 30 females. We used the anxiety scale designed by Kim as the measurement scale, and used Likert scoring method to evaluate the scale. Pearson correlation, standard deviation and statistical significance are combined to illustrate the correlation. T-test of independent samples was used to verify the difference between high anxiety group and low anxiety group. According to the statistical value of anxiety, participants were divided into three groups: low, medium and high anxiety groups. The questionnaire includes two kinds of anxiety, namely debilitating anxiety and promoting anxiety. Through t-test, univariate and multivariate analysis of variance and regression analysis, we investigated the relationship between anxiety and self-efficacy of students of different majors and genders.

Results
The author believes that promoting the study of landscape painting in art education is conducive to regulating people's body and mind. On the one hand, human beings have a natural intimate relationship with nature. On the other hand, the viewer can feel the difference between landscape painting, landscape painting and landscape documentary, because the painter integrates subjective and objective treatment in the picture and conveys different emotions to the viewer. This paper discusses from the following aspects: convey a quiet and peaceful atmosphere, recall the fleeting time, yearn for the mysterious and ethereal scene, stimulate a sense of excitement and pleasure, reflect on life, and trigger a noble and magnificent psychological response.

Conclusion
On the basis of exploration, through the analysis of landscape painting, the author finds that landscape painting plays an important role in the psychological rehabilitation of the viewer. Landscape painting combines the function of painting psychology and art, which has a certain impact on mankind, regulates the psychological state of the viewer and eliminates obstacles. The application of painting psychology in art education can help viewers appreciate landscape painting from more angles, explore the expression methods and methods used, as well as the emotion and connotation contained therein. It is relatively easy to enter the viewer's inner world with landscape painting as the theme, which can give people great spiritual comfort. In short, teachers should be fully aware of the important position of students' emotional elements in painting, actively improve the role of teachers in teaching activities, pay special attention to their classroom language and behavior, and change from a single knowledge imparter to a classroom manager, coordinator and collaborator. In the teaching process, we should actively organize teaching activities flexibly according to the psychological characteristics of students, strive to build a relaxed and harmonious classroom atmosphere, create a friendly and mutual aid emotional teacher-student relationship, encourage and guide students, and truly be student-centered. In this way, we can reduce students' anxiety, adjust students' psychology to the best state, and promote the all-round development of students' cognition and psychology.
