Chapter 1398 A painter full of fighting spirit
Greeting Ye Tian was a white man in his twenties, with slightly curly maroon hair, holding a paintbrush, and speckled oil paint everywhere on his clothes, very artist-like!
It is clear that this guy is a young painter who paints in the square for a living.
His stall is three or four meters away on the right, and in front of the stall stands a wooden easel and folding chairs, on which is a half-painted work, and next to it are seven or eight paintings for sale.
While greeting Ye Tian, this buddy's eyes were also full of anticipation.
This guy knows very well in his heart that Ye Tian is not only a professional treasure hunter, but also a top antique art appraisal expert, with a notoriously sharp eye!
What's more, he is also a super-rich, a super buyer and seller in the art market, and there are countless works of art that pass through his hands, and many of them are top works of art that are worth a lot of money!
If his paintings can be favored by Ye Tian and buy a few, it will not only solve his current dilemma, but may even make him an instant hit and become famous!
Because of this, this buddy took the initiative to greet Ye Tian and tried to use this means to win a chance.
Ye Tian turned his head to look at the young painter, smiled and nodded, and said:
"Good morning man, I'm Steven, nice to meet you"
"Hello, Steven, I'm Baudouin, and I'm glad to meet you, graduated from Parisian haute couture and currently a painter by profession!"
The young painter introduced himself, took two steps forward, and shook Ye Tian's hand.
"It's a very good art school, known as the cradle of artists, and it's been famous for a long time, if I'm not mistaken, those oil paintings are your works, right?"
Ye Tian complimented the other party a few words, and then pointed to the oil paintings on the painting stall next to him.
"That's right, Steven, those are all my works, you are a well-known expert in antique artworks, not to mention your appreciation ability, please help me review my paintings!"
Baudouin nodded, his eyes vaguely expectant.
But as a self-proclaimed artist, he still maintains the unique nobility and arrogance of an artist, and speaks in an indifferent tone, even if he wants to be praised and affirmed very much, and wants to change his fate through this!
At the same time as Ye Tian and Baudouin were talking, the painter who was painting had already put down his brush and turned his head to look at Ye Tian, obviously wanting to hear what he had to say about Baudouin's work.
Since the distance was not far, Ye Tian did not move over, but just stood in place, turned around and carefully admired Baudouin's work.
Of course, this is just a pretense, a show for others to see.
The first time he saw Baudouin's paintings, he judged the value of those paintings at a glance by the number of halo layers on them, which was extremely accurate!
I have to say that Baudouin does have some talent, and he did not insult the title of artist!
On his paintings, you can see a charming halo, ranging from five to seven layers, which has a certain value, but that's all!
If it had been placed a year ago, Ye Tian might have been tempted by these paintings, and took them down, and then hoarded them, waiting for these paintings to slowly appreciate in value, so as to make a small profit!
But at this time, Ye Tian's appetite is already incomparable, if it is not a top-level antique artwork, or a work of art with huge appreciation potential, other artworks will not be able to enter his eyes at all!
Obviously, Baudouin's paintings are still far from the top artworks, and the appreciation potential is also visible to the naked eye, which cannot make him moved!
Like most fields, the art field is also a pyramid structure, and there are very few artists who can reach the top, and the vast majority of artists are unknown, and eventually disappear!
Even if you have outstanding talent and outstanding works, if you don't have the cooperation of the right time, place and people, it is very likely to be completely buried and no one knows!
Van Gogh's genius who was poor during his lifetime and became a top master of art after his death is already very lucky, how many people are like that?
What's more, there are painters of relatively average level like Baudouin, and how many of them can eventually become famous?
If they don't break into the fame, even if their paintings are quite good and have a certain artistic value, the antique art market will not recognize them, and they will not be able to sell them at a high price, and they are likely to be smashed in their hands!
After pretending to appreciate it, Ye Tian smiled and said:
"I don't dare to comment properly, Baudouin, just say a few words, I like your realistic painting style, the layout and composition of the paintings are very reasonable, and the scenery painted is also beautiful!
But in my opinion, your lines are still a little stiff, if you can soften a little more, it would be better, the use of color is also a little lacking, there is room for improvement!
Of course, this is just my personal opinion, not necessarily correct, if you think what I said is wrong, then don't take it seriously, after all, creation is your own business!"
Hearing this, Baudouin fell silent for a moment, and then turned his head to look at his works, his face was a little ugly!
The middle-aged painter next to him glanced at Ye Tian deeply, and his eyes showed a bit of appreciation.
Obviously, the middle-aged painter was well aware of the shortcomings of Baudouin's paintings, but for some reason it was inconvenient to say them, so as not to be thankless!
After a while, Baudouin retracted his gaze and looked at Ye Tian again, and then said with a wry smile:
"You're right, Steven, there are still many flaws in my painting technique, and there is a lot of room for improvement, so I will definitely think about it when I look back!
Here, can I take the liberty of asking, "If you were asked to price or value these paintings of mine, what would you give?"
"Well, Baudouin, IMHO, if I were to make an estimate, the maximum of these paintings of yours would not exceed five thousand euros, and the minimum would be about two thousand!
If you can follow my advice, improve the lines and colors, and hone your painting skills, I will add another zero to this estimate!"
Ye Tian said with a smile and gave his own valuation and suggestions.
"Ah, it's only 5,000 euros, so I think I'm thinking too much of myself!"
Baudouin said with a wry smile, his expression slightly embarrassed, and his eyes showed a little disbelief.
Next, Ye Tian looked at a few oil paintings on the painting stall in front of him, and then said goodbye and left, and walked with Betty to an antique stall not far away!
Looking at Ye Tian's back as they left, Baudouin whispered:
"It's a good thing I didn't sell my paintings to Steven just now, otherwise it would be a shame and a big shame, I actually want to make a lot of money on this guy, it's really whimsical!"
Hearing this, the middle-aged painter next to him immediately said:
"Man, you're thinking too much, there's no way this guy Steven can come to our booth and buy our paintings, and it's hard to impress this greedy guy if it's not for top-notch antique art.
If you look at what he did in Paris, how many of the works of art that he fancied were not of the highest quality? Corot, Picasso, Gauguin, etc., every name is like thunder!"
When he said this, the middle-aged painter's tone was quite lonely, and he felt a little heroic twilight.
Baudouin next to him was different, after a short period of depression, his eyes were rekindled with flames and fighting spirit, perhaps this is the difference between young people and middle-aged and elderly men!
The middle-aged painter was right, if it weren't for the top antique artwork, he wouldn't be able to impress Ye Tian at all, let him do it!
Ye Tian, who was standing in front of the antique stall, found such a top-level antique artwork at this time, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes!
However, what he was pointing at was a painting of little value.
"Good morning, man, this impressionist painting looks okay, what is the price, if the price is right, I am interested in buying it!"
Ye Tian pointed to an impressionist oil painting and said, with a bright smile on his face.
