Gu Weijing tried to feel this uncontrolled mistake.
He captured every uncontrollable vibration of the pen tip, and realized the texture of the nylon hair of the pen tip when it was dragged on the paper. The dryness and excessive juice dripping, as if a toothpick was used to hold it up. The precise balance point of a chopstick's boundaries.
"The improvement of painting techniques has always come from discovering and solving mistakes."
What Professor Lin Tao told him in a WeChat class rang in his heart.
Among the several disciples, Lin Tao was the only one who joined Mr. Cao’s disciples only after reaching his prime.
This is the so-called art investment master in ancient times.
In the late 1970s, Lin Tao studied at the Chinese Painting Department of Central America.
The outstanding flower-and-bird painting stood out from thousands of submissions from across the country and won the gold medal at the National Art Museum's "New Era National Art Competition Art Exhibition", which attracted much attention at the time.
Though he is somewhat famous, he has already obtained the extremely rare position of appreciating and researching ancient calligraphy and painting in the Forbidden City.
However, he gave up his precious organization and became Cao Lao's second disciple by chance.
Lin Tao said that when he was a senior, he was recommended by the director of the college and had the opportunity to visit Mr. Cao Xuan, who was already in the limelight.
He was proud and proud, carrying a meat floss cake from Daoxiang Village, a bamboo picture he had drawn under his arm, and took three buses to the address handwritten by his instructor. Only then did I find Mr. Cao’s house in the capital.
Then
it was rejected.
He had a meal at Cao's hometown, chatted for a while about the family's feud, and gave him gifts.
Mr. Cao accepted his meat floss cake, but only opened the Chinese painting scroll and took a look at it. When he went out, he asked the nanny at home to return the scroll.
Lin Tao was angry at the time.
In those days, those who could go to Central America were not ordinary people.
The men in Beijing are arrogant. He has become famous at a young age. He is at the age when he is not afraid of heaven and earth. Looking at those famous masters, he feels that he can take his place.
This Cao Xuan.
Isn’t he just a master who was born early, is a great teacher, has studied abroad, is famous, has won awards, and has flowers blooming inside and outside the walls, both in the Central and Western regions, and the fragrance is fragrant?
Well, thinking about it this way, to be honest, he is really awesome.
But you are awesome, so you don’t look down on others like this.
Nothing else to say.
Lin Tao believes that his fine brushwork technique has touched the edge of "everyone's style".
Compared with the free and easy character, connotation and expression in his works, he may not be able to compare with the painters of the older generation. However, compared with the exquisiteness and delicacy of the articles in his hand, Lin Tao has the ability to "fight the ancients in bloody battles and compete with each other." Confident.
I am here to visit the seniors on behalf of my tutor, and I don’t have to ask you for anything. Why don’t you give me face?
"Fuck, this old guy is too much."
I respect others as much as I respect them.
If you look down on my paintings and slap me in the face, then I I don't like you.
The look on his face was very ugly.
For the sake of the hospital director, he didn't have an attack on the spot.
Mr. Cao saw Lin Tao's arrogance and dissatisfaction. Before going out, he smiled and clicked four times on the ink bamboo picture. He used his index finger as a pen, dipped it in Longjing and drew on the table, and said "Ink Bamboo" Ku Jin, don't let Cao Yi get out of the water, but learn from Wu Dai to be the wind. " He waved to see the guests off.
On the bus on the way back, Lin Tao held the painting in his hand and pondered it over and over.
It was true that he was feeling sulky.< /p>
But what Cao Xuan said when seeing off the guests really scared him.
The so-called "Cao Yi comes out of the water" refers to Cao Zhongda, a master of white-painted sculptures in the Northern Qi Dynasty. His brushwork is dense and his lines are round and colorful. The most striking feature of his paintings is that the clothes of the characters in his paintings have a moist and thick texture, as if they were lifted out of the water.
The thing that Lin Tao is most proud of. .
He considered himself to be creative and integrated the lines drawn with white lines into the outlines of flowers, birds and plants to create plum blossoms, orchids, bamboos and chrysanthemums.
No water. It has a watery feel, but the ink color has a green meaning.
After careful study and repeated practice, he took the essence of the paintings of his predecessors and formed his own unique style.
At this old guy’s casual glance, it was as if he had no clothes on, and he was clearly naked
“What does it mean to imitate Wu Dai’s style”
Of course he knows Wu's belt is in the wind.
This refers to Wu Daozi, who was the opposite of Cao Zhongda in the painting world. The clothes of the characters in his paintings are round and elegant, as if they are flowing in the wind.
Compared with Cao Zhongda's smooth and consistent lines,
Wu Daozi's line drawings are obviously more sharp and bold, paying attention to the changes in the weight of the lines.
Cao Xuan's words before leaving. Remind yourself that you are on the wrong track
You should focus on expressing the dry strength of the ink bamboo, rather than the moisture and sentimentality. The line drawing is correct, but you should learn from Wu Daozi, not Cao Zhongda
< p>Lin Tao held the painting in his arms and sat on the bus until he reached the terminal without getting off.He frowned and thought about what Cao Xuan mentioned at the dinner table. Thinking about it afterwards, The more I think about it, the more I feel that the antelope hangs its horns, which is full of Zen.
I understand it a bit, but I don’t quite understand it.
I am full of it. His resentment has turned into full of exclamation, and he feels more and more that those two understatements, with endless aftertaste, are the feelings he has been pursuing for a long time.
When he has reached a certain level of painting, he wants to clarify his future path. , what a difficult thing it is
The four places that Cao Xuan clicked on the ink bamboo map were also hit the nail on the head. They happened to be the places where his breath was not smooth and his pen was not coherent enough..
And the demonstrated calligraphy has a broad road ahead of me.
I only regretted that I didn’t pay more attention at that time, and regretted that I wanted to slap myself twice.
The conductor looked at the only remaining passenger in the car who was frowning, dazed, and smiling. After making sure for a long time that this guy didn't bite, he reminded the other passenger that they were at the terminal.
Lin Tao bought a ticket and sat back without saying anything.
That night, I stood in front of Mr. Cao’s house honestly and respectfully all night.
He had only one thought in his mind at that time.
“Shit, this Mr. Dong is so awesome. I must learn a few tricks from him. After passing this village, there is no shop like this.”
< p>Later.After Lin Tao finally became a disciple of Mr. Cao, he lived, ate, and lived in Mr. Cao’s house for two years. Nothing to draw, nothing to practice.
Only draw the simplest bamboo veins.
Only practice the simplest white lines.
Every time he practiced a piece, Cao Xuan used his pen to outline the areas where the lines were not smooth, and then went back and redrawn them. At first, he only had the most basic long and short straight lines, circular lines, spiral lines, and corrugated lines.
Two months later, I began to add strength, turning, and pauses between lines to emphasize the elasticity and tenacity of the lines.
Strive to achieve that the pen is calm but the mind is still, and the shape is dispersed but the energy is not dispersed.
After four months, the changes in white spots and density that appeared when practicing between pens were scanned.
After half a year, I started to draw the trunk of a single bamboo.
Ten months later, branches, leaves and bamboo trees will be added.
Those were the two most difficult years for Professor Lin Tao to learn painting in his life, and they were also the two years during which he made the greatest progress in painting.
Professor Lin told Gu Weijing that it was the second enlightenment of calligraphy and painting in his life.
It is like a frog at the bottom of a well, jumping out of the dry well to re-understand the world for the first time, and like a reincarnation of a chaotic and ignorant baby.
Being a disciple is like recognizing your father, and learning an art is like reincarnation.
Two years ago, Lin Tao walked into the teacher's house. He was just an ignorant young man who became complacent after being exposed to "everyone's atmosphere", and his ambition was as high as the sky.
As the bamboo shadows swayed, he grew quietly.
Two years later, when Lin Tao finished painting no less than 3,000 bamboo seas and polished all the flaws and roughness, he had become a truly famous artist as he started to write. The master of traditional Chinese painting in Fadu.
After a full twenty months of apprenticeship.
Lao Cao accepted Lin Tao’s first bamboo painting and hung it on the wall instead of letting the nanny destroy it like before.
"The breath is condensed, the bamboo roots are deeply penetrated into the paper, and the brushwork is completed in one go. It is finally interesting and worth playing." Cao Xuan commented.
“All in one go”
Gu Weijing thought about Professor Lin Tao’s story of learning to paint.
A little lost.
When he was practicing flat painting with watercolors, he unconsciously and subconsciously matched the rhythm of coloring with the brush in his hand to the rhythm of his own breathing.
Breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe
Pick up the pen, put down the pen, pick up the pen, put down the pen
Gu Weijing didn’t even notice that he was scribbling. As time goes by, the hand gradually becomes more and more stable, and the uncontrolled tremors and spots in the brush strokes gradually become less and less.
It is not that he is favored by the watercolor god.
But Gu Wei gradually discovered that although the brushwork, substrate, and pigments were all different.
But in fact
Watercolor and ink Chinese painting have similar advantages.
In addition to ink and wash Chinese painting, there is no need to tilt the paper specially. Rice paper with strong water absorption capacity can directly complete the steps of pigment rendering. The painting method of Chinese painting is free and freehand, and the painting method of watercolor is light and realistic. outside.
Two traditional painting methods were born in Europe and Asia respectively.
There is a certain similarity between different paths leading to the same destination.
The same emphasis is placed on the exquisiteness of the brushwork, and on the training of the painter's wrist stability when using soft pens. The same water-dyed paper, one stroke at a time, the white paper dyed with ink is like a carving knife chiseling stone, and the pen is put down. Finally, you have to follow the trend and complete it in one go, leaving no room for the artist to hesitate.
After adjusting his breathing, it was obvious that he was coloring and coloring, but he was a little distracted doing such repetitive work.
But Gu Weijing could draw more easily.
He didn’t have much training with watercolor brushes, but he started getting big brushes almost from an early age.
Not to mention, from a purely numerical perspective, his Chinese painting is the highest among all his painting techniques.
The way of holding and handling the brushes and watercolor brushes are very different.
The painter's state of mind is similar. When he no longer thinks about how to delete, delete or modify on the drawing paper.
He thinks about the strokes of watercolor in the same way as he thinks about the outline and coloring of traditional Chinese paintings.
Think about the smudge control of watercolor on cardboard by controlling the brush strokes of ink painting.
The half-painted water corridor bridge on the paper began to look interesting in Gu Weijing's eyes.
Watercolor Technique Experience 303
He noticed a high experience value increase prompt flashing on the system panel.
Gu Weijing was slightly stunned.
It can’t compare to the thousands of astronomical points gained from his epiphany at the Royal Botanic Gardens, but the instant gain of three hundred points is really a lot.
To know.
His original watercolor experience value was only about 200 points in semi-professional level. This was only two months after getting the system, and other techniques were added, which brought about an increase in rain and dew.
Gu Weijing attended art school since he was a child.
Watercolor is the main course at Dulwich College, even though Gu Weijing himself did not invest too much in this technique in his spare time.It takes more time and energy to practice, and the opportunities for daily contact are not too few.
Gu Weijing’s random idea and understanding of breathing rhythm that he just found to be interesting are basically equivalent to all the gains he made from practicing watercolor techniques during his entire primary and secondary school years
Of course.
It is difficult for ordinary students to have such a good foundation in v5-level Chinese painting techniques, but this is enough to make Gu Weijing feel overjoyed.
“Art is really a course that pursues spiritual enlightenment. Maybe I discovered the common way to control the use of pens when painting with most soft pens.”
Gu Weijing laughed softly.
He could clearly feel that after adding overall control of hand movements and breathing rhythm in the painting room, the flat lines on the watercolor paper became smooth and obedient almost instantly.
The difference between the flat brush and the brush control method is not too big, except that the line in its hand is a thick line with a width of 12.
It seems that there are not many mistakes in his substitution idea.
Painters from the East and the West are all human beings.
Cultural differences certainly exist, but there are more commonalities in art.
The technical gap is not as insurmountable as many people imagine.
Study the similarities between the influence of Japanese paintings and Oriental paintings on the way Impressionist painters used brushwork.
It is already a clichéd study with no new ideas.
This is a conclusion that is uncontroversial in the academic community.
As for the fact that there are many European and American art critics who study calligraphy.
My ability in classical Chinese is average.
I don’t even know a few Chinese characters, but purely regard calligraphy as a painting subject.
The work is simply interpreted from the strength of the strokes and the structure of the brush, and even the strokes of the brush are separated and added to the creation process of other avant-garde arts.
We have made great achievements in the past few years.
Speak impartially.
Gu Weijing has been studying traditional Chinese painting since he was a child, but he still feels that the color science and delicacy of watercolor, as well as the entire proportional relationship and perspective focus system, are much more advanced than traditional Chinese painting.
But when it comes to writing and writing.
After Su Shi created the literati painting system and implanted the calligraphy roots of Chinese characters into the Eastern painting system, basically in all painting methods, there was no way to find any way to do it with hands in pockets. opponent.
What’s more, when Castiglione brought the watercolor painting method to the East.
Many early Eastern Xia painters originally used brushes to paint watercolors.
To this day, some art schools also recommend the use of traditional brushes dipped in watercolor paints in their advice to beginners.
Zhiwu
Gu Weijing was nearing the end of his coloring exercise.
The hinges of the door hinges make a sound.
