The meal was good, oysters, clams, scallops, snails...... It's a small shop, and there is no high-end seafood. Of course, there are still crabs and shrimps, but the crabs are not too fresh, although they are not bad, but the taste is not very good. The shrimp are okay, they are quite fresh and the meat is quite large. The most important thing is that the seafood in this store is really fried very fragrant, and it has been many years since Zhou Fangyuan ate it last time.

The last time I came was the last life, and I didn't have much money at the time, so I called a fried clam, and today I have money, and I ordered a big table, but I was happy.

Other people also eat very happily, a meal down, a total of 1,200 yuan, although there are twenty people, but this consumption is not low, this year's average consumption level of sixty yuan per person per month is already considered a luxury for ordinary people.

In the end, Zhou Fangyuan paid for the meal, he had expected that Teacher Ji would rush to pay, so he paid the account before Teacher Ji, and was complained by Teacher Ji after eating, but Zhou Fangyuan was still very happy, after all, this period of time represents a rare truly carefree time in his whole life, and it will be very happy to be able to do it again.

From the second day, Zhou Fangyuan officially started the training camp.

Because of a meal, the relationship between Lu Donglai's students and Beitonglai's students became closer, at least much better than at this time in the previous life.

The same is true for Zhou Fangyuan, those students of Lu Dong will always take the initiative to greet him when they see him, and he will always respond with a smile. There is the role of that meal, and of course, there is also the factor of Zhou Fangyuan's superb art level.

The content of the training is mainly painting, and occasionally Mr. Ji will give everyone a big lesson, that is, everyone gathers in the living room to listen to her talk about the precautions needed for the CAFA examination, especially in painting, what is the style of CAFA, what are the examiners this year, and what style they prefer, these are all things that candidates need to know.

In order to take care of Zhou Fangyuan, Mr. Ji repeated what he had said before on the first day of his official training, not only to Zhou Fangyuan, but also to deepen the impression of other students.

After finishing the lecture, before eleven o'clock in the morning, Teacher Ji asked Zhou Fangyuan if he could paint a painting first, after all, she still had to know what Zhou Fangyuan's level was and Zhou Fangyuan's painting style, so that she could make targeted adjustments.

"Absolutely. ”

Zhou Fangyuan nodded.

He thought about it and decided to paint a portrait.

Set up the drawing board, pick up the pen, and draw in the large living room.

The other students stopped what they were doing and began to watch him draw.

At this time, everyone didn't know how Zhou Fangyuan's painting skills were, everyone just thought that this boy was quite rich and should have a good relationship with him, and everyone was really curious about this student who was a week late, so they gathered behind him.

As soon as Zhou Fangyuan immersed himself in painting, he would be unable to extricate himself and devote himself wholeheartedly to it. This was the case in his last life, and in his failed last life, there were only two things that could make him devote himself wholeheartedly, one was to play games, and the other was to draw.

It's a pity that he didn't become a professional player, nor did he become an artist, and I have to say that it's a pity.

But his painting skills have been mentioned before, and they are indeed quite good.

A sketch of a person quickly appeared in his hand, and at this moment, only five minutes had passed. Zhou Fangyuan's brushstrokes are very accurate, almost no changes, whether it is the shape, brushstrokes or chiaroscuro, I dare not say that it is impeccable, but for a group of students behind him, it is definitely a shocking level.

Teacher Ji couldn't help but hold her glasses, she looked at Zhou Fangyuan, and then looked at Zhou Fangyuan's picture, a faint smile suddenly appeared on her face, which had never had any expression.

Ten minutes later, a portrait was completed. Completing a sketch at the speed of a sketch is really difficult for the average person to do if he is not really proficient.

The only drawback is that the tone is too light, although the chiaroscuro performance is very good, but the picture as a whole is light, if you meet an examiner who likes a strong black and white contrast, this painting will inevitably deduct points.

However, there is an advantage to the lightening tone, that is, as long as you use a pencil with a high mark, it is not difficult to strengthen it. But once you're used to the re-tonality, it's not easy to downplay it.

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

Teacher Ji was the first to applaud, and the others also applauded, Zhou Fangyuan put down all the pencils and erasers, and then nodded at everyone with a smile.

"Yes, Zhou Fangyuan, your level is really good, to be honest, as a teacher, I have nothing to say, as soon as you go to the CAFA exam at your current level, you will definitely have no problem with sketching. ”

Teacher Ji did not hesitate to praise.

The other students around them showed envious expressions, they also wanted to draw so well, but it didn't matter if it required constant effort, it also needed some small talents, both of which were indispensable, even if they both had talents, but the time and number of contacts had not reached a certain level, it was difficult to achieve such a degree.

Looking at the entire studio, there may only be Zhang Daquan and Zhou Fangyuan's level, but Zhang Daquan belongs to the kind of person who has a very heavy tone, and the picture is often more "dirty", although it looks good, but it is far less refreshing than Zhou Fangyuan.

"And it's important that you draw very fast, and you all remember that drawing fast means that you have more time to revise than others, and although we tend not to advocate excessive revision, no one is sure that you can draw it right the first time, so it's still important to revise. I hope that all of you can train your painting speed in the next time, of course, provided that the quality does not deteriorate, and don't give up on the basics, just because the speed goes up, and the result is a mess. ”

Teacher Ji continued, and after speaking, she looked at Zhou Fangyuan.

"I didn't expect you to draw so fast, sketch like that, I know your level. There's still some time, would you like to paint another watercolor?"

"Okay. ”

Zhou Fangyuan smiled and nodded.

I took the drawing off the drawing board, changed it to paper, and got up to get the paint.

"Use mine, I've got all the paint. ”

A tall boy said.

Zhou Fangyuan recognized the other party at a glance, the younger brother in the twins was the most handsome and wealthy student in the group of Ludong students, and like his brother, he was extremely popular in the studio. The level of painting is also good, and among the other students from Lu Dong together, many female classmates are quietly liking them.

This also includes Zhou Fangyuan's crush on Xiao Shuang for a short time in his previous life, the low-stated, not beautiful but cute little girl.

"Good. ”

Retracting his thoughts, Zhou Fangyuan nodded, and took the paint of his twin brother with his backhand.

The object of the painting is a pile of fruits, just in the corner of the living room, in fact, these students in the large living room are going to draw this pair of fruits today, but they may take half a day or even half a day to complete.

Zhou Fangyuan looked at the fruit while adjusting the paint, his movements were still very fast, and after more than ten seconds, he fell heavily on the drawing paper.

Then he began his performance, and I saw that he kept dropping stroke after stroke on the drawing paper, and soon, a faint layer of bright yellow was spread on the drawing paper.

Zhou Fangyuan's way of painting watercolors is different from ordinary people, and his watercolors are more influenced by Monet, so the way he is most accustomed to painting watercolors is to pave, layer by layer, and the color is spread upwards, rather than the next stroke is a stroke like ordinary students.

However, watercolor is different from Monet's oil paintings, the brushstrokes are not as broken as Monet, and this needs to be adjusted by yourself, anyway, those who can get used to it can get used to it, and those who can't get used to it can't do it. And Monet's paintings also have a characteristic, that is, there is a lot of gray, and various colors of gray fill the whole picture, of course, there can not be so much gray in watercolor, which is also a test of a person's level, but fortunately, these are not difficult Zhou Fangyuan.

Time passed minute by minute, and the background color was laid, and Zhou Fangyuan began to sketch the various targets in his field of vision with a paintbrush.

Apples, oranges, bananas, grapes, drinking glasses, disks, tablecloths...... Not as fast as a sketch, Zhou Fangyuan took half an hour to complete this watercolor.

How to say it, it can't be said to be perfect, because except for photos, no one can really spend it perfectly, but as long as it is a person with a normal brain and eyes, you can see what is in Zhou Fangyuan's picture at a glance, and compared with the "model" in the distance, basically there is no difference.

The picture depicted by Zhou Fangyuan is like a photo, but the pixels are a little low, and it looks like a large mosaic.

But like is like, the more detailed Zhou Fangyuan is not impossible to paint, he just doesn't want to waste so much time. Teacher Ji just wants to see his level, and it's not a real exam, and even if it's an exam, there is an audience for different painting styles. Some people like the effect that is delicate to almost real, but some people like the effect that is relatively rough, and even the solid color blocks are liked, where do you go to reason?

Teacher Ji was speechless, he looked at Zhou Fangyuan, then at his painting, and then at the "model" in the distance.

"Zhou Fangyuan, how many years have you studied painting?"

"I've been learning since I was a child, and I've been open for more than ten years. ”

Zhou Fangyuan did start learning to paint since he was a child, about five years old, when the other children in the studio were still drawing stick figures, he had already begun to sketch still lifes. When it comes to painting, Zhou Fangyuan is really talented, this is not an exaggeration.

Teacher Ji shook his head when he heard this, "At your level, you don't need to train intensively, you can go directly to the exam...... Sketches, watercolors, you're good, and the sketches shouldn't be bad. ”

"It's okay. ”

Zhou Fangyuan smiled modestly, reached out to take off the watercolor painting, then picked up a new piece of white paper and put it on, held the drawing board and took a few steps back in front of everyone, and then lowered his head and began to draw quickly. Well, most people sketch and draw a single person, and he paints a group portrait directly. Everyone didn't dare to move, so they just stood quietly.

After a few minutes......

"Teacher Ji, take a look. ”

Zhou Fangyuan put down his paintbrush and walked over with a sketchpad.

At a glance, the picture was clean and tidy, and the demeanor and appearance of the twenty or so people in front of him were painted with the simplest brushstrokes. Of course, this appearance cannot be compared with sketching, after all, the forms of expression of the two sides are different. But to be able to do this kind of thing, it is indeed beyond the level of ordinary students.

So, in just one and a half hours, Zhou Fangyuan determined his status as the first person in his studio.

Indisputable!
