"Gu Weijing is a very talented young man. We are all from the Dongxia cultural circle. If you can guide him, it can be regarded as a master-disciple relationship."
Mr. Cao He explained aloud.
Cui Xuanyou was unwilling to accept what Mr. Cao said.
"That's right, but in my opinion, this painting is already great. The colors are smooth and the brushwork is neat. He is worthy of the young man that Master Cao values. I think there will be more paintings in Asia in the future. A new star. Look at the simple color blocks and the well-connected horizontal and vertical lines.”
Lao Cao listened silently to the other party’s praise of this painting for several minutes, and Lao Yang counted Every time I wanted to interrupt, Mr. Cao stopped me.
The old man didn’t say anything. He just thanked politely again at the end and hung up the phone.
"Oh, just by listening to the tone, those who understand know that this is the painting of the child in Burma. Those who don't know think that Zhang Daqian and Mondrian are possessed by their souls. They are not willing to teach If he doesn’t teach, and no one forces him, who is Cui Xuanyou acting for?”
Lao Yang laughed angrily while listening.
In the painting circle,
they scold your works in private because they look up to you.
It is really for your own good to be willing to criticize you in this situation where you are asking for personal advice from others.
When someone else’s immature paintings are promoted to the sky, they are either perfunctory or flattering.
Cui Xuanyou's rhetoric is very common,
it is also very "official".
It is generally seen as a tactful and polite way for artists to deal with all kinds of hard-to-deal-with local bosses who come to their door and demand to appreciate their "masterpieces".
But if you still do this in front of Cao Xuan,
You really think that Mr. Cao is already confused
"Okay, I can understand it. Learn from it. When it comes to art, being willing to teach is a matter of affection, but not being willing to teach is a duty."
The little old man waved his hand.
Cui Xuanyou made it clear that he did not want to give advice to Gu Weijing.
Lao Cao had no choice.
"He doesn't want to give advice, so let me teach it myself. The painting style that combines Chinese and Western methods, there are clever methods and stupid methods. Since there is no shortcut, then the only way is to learn from it. Practicing honestly and using stupid methods."
The little old man shook his head.
If you don’t have a butcher, you don’t necessarily have to eat pigs with hair on them.
Having Cui Xuanyou’s successful experience in teaching Xiao Cui can certainly save a lot of trouble.
However, when others look down on Gu Weijing, Mr. Cao also has an alternative.
"What do you mean by stupid method?"
Old Yang asked curiously.
"Do you know about line drawing and sketching? When I was young, I went to the old magic city to visit Mr. Xu Beihong, and he mentioned an idea to me."
Mr. Cao seemed to Lost in memories of the past.
Line drawing sketch,
This kind ofThe painting practice method was born out of the ideas of modern Chinese painting masters.
As early as the early 20th century, Mr. Xu Beihong and other traditional Chinese painting predecessors began to advocate that the art path of the Eastern Xia Dynasty should not be complacent and should take the path of integrating Chinese and Western styles.
The final product of transformation is line drawing sketch.
Line drawing sketching is similar to simple sketching.
It combines the Western quicksketch sketching method and the understanding of Chinese gongbi painting of "getting straight from the beginning" and "getting straight to form and spirit". .
It can be regarded as a unique sketching method of Eastern Xia with a Western skeleton and an Eastern spirit.
Compared with traditional sketching,
it replaces the stacking and laying out of large areas of gray shadows in sketching with pure and extreme lines, blending and taking the use of traditional Chinese fine brushwork and line drawing. The ultimate goal is to pursue the simplest lines to summarize the outline characteristics of characters and buildings.
This is a pioneering art practice method in modern times.
Line drawing and sketching can alienate or make full use of light and shadow without departing from the essence of Chinese painting with the theme of "line", which greatly simplifies the originally complicated and complicated painting process of sketching.
"So you want Xiao Gu to practice line drawing and sketching, which is hard work."
Old Yang curled his lips slightly.
He didn’t think there was anything wrong with the solution proposed by Mr. Cao. Line drawing and sketching were a method figured out by several great painters with knowledge of both China and the West in the last century.
There shouldn't be any problem.
But this is indeed a stupid way.
Lao Yang is also an art major and knows the pain of this kind of painting.
Line drawing sketching is similar to using the line drawing technique of Chinese painting to draw a sketch, although the large-scale shadow tones in the sketch are removed.
But also because of its simplicity,
it requires higher control over the pen and actually consumes more effort.
Oriental meticulous painters often spend the whole morning pondering over the curve of a skirt in a picture of a lady when drawing.
A line drawing sketch contains at least hundreds or thousands of lines.
This kind of painting practice is like a calligraphy enthusiast who wets the felt with water and writes the eight methods of "Yong" over and over again. It is very boring.
For young people who are not calm enough, it is even more torture.
Lao Yang was neither optimistic that Gu Weijing would be able to have this kind of calmness, nor was he optimistic that he would suffer like this.
When practicing line drawing, you can only polish it one stroke at a time to develop your proficiency with the brush.
It is the so-called water mill Kung Fu.
And it’s hard to say when the painting will be finished.
Some people may have a taste for painting after just one or two hundred paintings, while others may have just started painting after three to five years.
"If you want to paint well, how can you do it if you are not willing to endure hardship?" Mr. Cao said calmly.
Gu Weijing received a call from Lao YangTelephone.
"Gu Xiaozi"
As soon as he connected, he heard a little old man's hoarse voice coming from the phone.
"Mr. Cao, is that you?"
Gu Weijing did not expect that Mr. Cao would contact him personally, and his heart skipped a beat.
"I saw that painting, and the idea is interesting," Mr. Cao said lightly.
"Thank you, Mr. Cao."
Gu Weijing was quite excited to be praised by Mr. Cao.
At least it shows that his style is generally correct.
"Don't be too happy, I'm not here to praise you."
Mr. Cao's tone became stern, "Let me ask you, why do you think so?" I painted fusion paintings because of the Singapore Art Biennale."
"Yes, that's true."
Gu Weijing didn't dare to show off in front of the old gentleman and was honest. recognition.
The main objective reason why he tried this style was to win awards easily.
"It is not a good habit to be opportunistic and not to improve your painting skills conscientiously. You want to run before you have learned to walk."
Mr. Cao Xuan first spoke in a rather serious tone. A harsh criticism.
Although Mr. Cao liked his courage in his heart, he would not give Gu Weijing a chance to be proud and complacent.
"This painting of yours is worth seeing only for its ideas. I can only use eight words to evaluate the work itself. My heart is as high as the sky, and my life is thinner than paper. The performance of the painting is a mess, and it misses the mark." "Young Bu Yang, this kind of fusion painting is really ridiculous. Even if you want to win a prize for your abilities, it's just nonsense." the little old man scolded.
Gu Weijing’s words were a little awkward.
He knew that Mr. Cao’s words were unpleasant, but they were all the truth.
"Please teach me, Mr. Cao."
He respectfully asked for advice.
“It’s hard to teach you how to hum,” Mr. Cao Xuan snorted, “Let me ask you first, do you really want to paint fusion paintings?”
“Of course. ”
“If you only regard this painting style as a shortcut to winning awards in art exhibitions, I advise you to give up on this idea as soon as possible. This road is not easy to walk, and it is not for you to take advantage of.” Shortcut."
Cao Xuan's tone was not joking.
"If you really want to paint this kind of painting, you have to keep painting for me steadily. No matter whether you can finally paint a work that satisfies you before the art exhibition, I will not allow it. You change the path. If you don’t have the mentality of burning the boat, it’s just irresponsible and reckless to try this difficult style.”
“The choice is in your own hands, you can think about it carefully. , tell me the answer again.”
“I won’t blame you if you regret it now”
The little old man’s voice came from the microphone, “But I don’t want to hear it. After practicing for a while, he told me that this road is too difficult.”
"Mr. Cao, I want to continue painting."
Gu Weijing didn't hesitate much.
This painting style is very suitable for the Singapore Art Exhibition, and also very suitable for He who has a system.
Whether it is from an immediate benefit or a long-term perspective,
The fusion painting style is a painting method that he will not regret.
"So courageous."
The old man's tone showed relief, "In this case, I have two ideas about how to bridge the disharmonious feeling between oil painting and Chinese painting. Suggestions."
"Please tell me."
"First of all, from a large perspective, I suggest you look at the relatively mature works that combine Eastern and Western artistic styles. Made."
"Are you referring to Zhao Wuji or Wu Guanzhong?"
"No, I am referring to the court paintings after the mid-Qing Dynasty."
Mr. Cao explained, "When modern art masters like Zhao and Wu began to paint and try to integrate styles, their art concepts were already quite mature. Relatively speaking, you are still too immature at the moment. It is too difficult to directly learn and copy. High.”
To learn romanticism, learn from Turner, to learn critical realism, learn from the Russian painter Varisi, to learn from Secession, learn from Klimt, and to learn aestheticism, learn from Edward Jones.
Trying to understand the original appearance of an art style when it first began to develop is less difficult for a student who is just trying a new style.
In the Qing Dynasty, Lang Shining was the representative of the new style of court painting. In fact, there was a sense of necessity in the birth process.
European painters such as Castiglione originally planned to recommend pure oil paintings to the Qing court, but Emperor Kangxi did not like it and did not buy it.
In the feudal dynasty, no matter in the East or West, the style of painting was decided by the employer.
Then the painting was changed to the style of fusion painting.
This deliberately created product can more clearly reveal the traces of the initial collision and fusion of the two cultures.
Lao Cao then suggested to Gu Weijing to appreciate the palace paintings from the mid-Qing Dynasty onwards.
"Your ancestor was a court painter, so you should understand what I mean."
"Understood."
Gu Weijing understood clearly.
"This is the art direction on a macro level. As for the details, you need to practice a lot of line drawing and sketching. This is to exercise your ability to use a pen. Do you know what a line drawing student is?"< /p>
"I understand."
Before meeting Mr. Cao, Gu Weijing's first dream for university was Central America in Eastern Xia.
CAFA is one of the best art schools in Asia, and its portfolio requirements for overseas students include line drawing and sketching.
Gu Weijing knows what line drawing sketching is.
"When drawing lines to describe students, you must also draw carefully, and you must be careful every stroke. I make two requirements for you. First, you must use the pen with the idea of line drawing. Second, you must useDraw with a pen and don't give yourself the chance to make mistakes. Only by being able to retract and release freely can we embrace all rivers. ”
Lao Cao concluded.
When drawing lines to describe students, many people like to completely understand them with purely simplified sketch thinking, which loses the essence of Chinese painting in their works. Unique charm.
Using a pen also exercises control.
Unlike a hard pencil that can be easily modified, a pen reduces the error rate by a large margin. You have to think carefully, and with a flick of your wrist, you will be finished with one painting.
These two suggestions can be regarded as good advice.
Gu Weijing put down the phone. I walked around the orphanage and found my current model not far away, a Jasmine child, who was silently watching his drawings.
Compared to other orphanages, it was noisy. Children,
Little girl Jasmine has always been very well-behaved.
She was just a little clingy to Gu Weijing who showed kindness to her because she was used to being lonely. p>
She was very happy that Gu Weijing had time to play with her. He didn't have time to play with her, so the child Jasmine just held the doll and watched without making any noise.
Rang was sensible. It hurts.
Gu Weijing always felt that he got more from little Jasmine than he gave to the children.
The missionary diary from the janitor uncle. Not to mention the value of it.
Child Jasmine still has a quiet air about her. Whenever Gu Weijing gets irritable while painting, as long as he sees the little girl’s figure in his sight, his mentality will change. Peaceful.
It was the same this time.
If he could sketch quickly, it would only take him ten minutes to draw.
But when he tried to use fine brushwork. The idea of drawing is much slower when using a pen.
Especially the long hair on the back of Jasmine’s head, which will appear as hundreds of approximately parallel lines with millimeter intervals on the paper. Curve.
As long as one line is not pulled properly,
Gu Weijing can start all over again.
He sat quietly under the tree. In the afternoon, little girl Jasmine worked with him all afternoon.
When the sun set towards the west mountain, Gu Weijing finally completed his first line sketch after several failures. /p>
He breathed out slowly

Emotional Feelings
“It feels right this time. In addition, there is no interference of color. It is much less difficult to just control the lines. . ”
Gu Weijing nodded. Although this practice method was a little more troublesome, the annoying sense of fragmentation never appeared again when drawing.
Generally speaking, the painting is veryIt's smooth.
"Ding, you have a new task."
Gu Weijing heard the system panel prompt in his ear, and he opened the virtual panel.
