"Shang Ya, help me send the drawing number 307 over there to the master who remarks Chen Yunsheng. Thank you. ”

"Okay. ”

……

"Shang Ya, help me throw away the drawing number 704......"

"Okay. ”

Shang Ya ran all over the house and became Qin Huai's well-behaved secretary.

……

It's been more than a month since I moved to the Botanical Garden Villa.

During this period, the artists of the three provinces also came, discussing ideas and exchanging ideas under the auspices of Qin Huai.

And now, only Qin Huai is left to complete the final overall design.

Truth be told, let these traditional skills with different styles emulsion... Blending is not simple.

If it was to piece them together casually, Qin Huai would be able to complete it easily.

Even if it is to piece together all the thousands of traditional skills in the country, it is easy for Qin Huai.

But Qin Huai was very harsh.

He is not willing to be cobbled together.

He wanted nearly a hundred skills, and under his carving knife, he sought common ground while reserving differences, and a hundred flowers bloomed.

Based on this ambition.

Qin Huai had to artistically sublimate nearly a hundred traditional skills in his mind before he could recreate them.

But to do this, computing power alone is not enough.

There's also a little bit of aura missing.

This is exactly Qin Huai's headache, he thought about it dozens of times, and finally it was all vetoed.

Although when we discussed it together a few days ago, those artists were not satisfied with his design.

But Qin Huai still felt that there were a lot of shortcomings.

——In terms of creation, Qin Huai is far more demanding than anyone else.

Outrageously harsh.

……

"Take a break and have a cup of tea. ”

Shang Ya brought a cup of hot tea and raised her eyebrows to persuade Qin Huai to combine work and rest.

Hear the words.

Qin Huai put down his tools, wiped his fingers with a towel, then took the tea, took a sip, and raised his eyebrows in surprise: "This is lotus leaf tea?"

"yes, I tried to make it for you after reading the book yesterday, how does it taste?"

Yesterday she saw a text in "Six Tales of Floating Life": 'When the lotus flowers first bloom in the summer moon, they bloom in the evening, and Yun uses a small yarn bag to pinch a few leaves, put the flower heart, take it out tomorrow morning, and soak it in the spring water of the sky, and the fragrance is especially amazing. ’

This passage describes a refreshing way to drink tea.

That is, the tea leaves are filled with a small yarn sac, placed in the center of the lotus, and the lotus leaves are contained in the evening and bloomed, and in the evening, they will be closed. According to this reasoning.

The natural aroma of lotus flowers will be immersed in the tea at night, and the tea leaves will be taken out to cook tea the next day, so that the tea leaves can have the fragrance of lotus leaves and cool evening breeze.

Shang Ya was amazed when she read it, so she immediately gave Qin Huai a try.

"Good tea. ”

Qin Huai sipped gently, and after drinking a cup, Shang Ya continued to pour it full.

A lamp swallows the stars,

Three cups of light five mountains.

The physical and mental exhaustion disappeared in the ups and downs of the tea.

Qin Huai actually had some sweat on his forehead......

"There's nothing weird in there, is there?"

Qin Huai had the mood of 'once bitten by a snake and afraid of the well rope for ten years', and put down the green jade teacup nervously.

"How is that possible!"

Shang Ya glanced at Qin Huai.

Qin Huai breathed a sigh of relief. Get up and continue to conceive of the wood carving.

……

"Today's carving is ruined. ”

Qin Huai shook his head in frustration.

Nearly 100 skills are kneaded together, and there are tens of thousands of strokes and lines for people, houses, and scenes......

The lines and strokes are too exuberant, too noisy, too long!

In three-dimensional carving, so many lines are consumed, which is easy to make the viewer aesthetically fatigued.

As a result, tourists can't remember any of the 100 traditional skills.

It's like the emperor of the Ming Dynasty asked Lu Zigang to carve a jade carving of ten thousand horses, if Lu Zigang really carved ten thousand horses, would there be an artistic effect?

Who will remember those 10,000 horses?

Qin Huai also wants to artistically process these traditional skills, so that every traditional skill will shine.

But Qin Huai sat in front of the wood carving for an hour, but still found nothing.

INTERVIEWER The process of artistic creation is so boring and arduous that it is extremely common to find inspiration for ten days and half a month.

Although Qin Huai was accustomed to it, he gradually entered the style of meditation and hard thinking.

……

"My current design uses too many lines and too many things to express, resulting in only a superb wood carving technique, but only a wall full of holes......

If you show it to outsiders, I'm afraid that none of these skills will be remembered by the viewers, let alone impressed by them. ”

Qin Huai's brows tightened.

"The focus is on how to carve new ideas into almost 100 techniques. It's like creating a hundred works, and it's so difficult. Or is it because I'm too ambitious?"

Qin Huai paced back and forth.

The sun sets.

The night was hazy.

Shang Ya out of the bath.

Qin Huai kept frowning and thinking.

"It's time to stop work and eat, I stewed chicken soup with a little agarwood, you can taste it." ”

Shang Ya came over.

Wearing her red off-the-shoulder maxi dress.

This maxi dress is silky with few frills and only a rose pattern on the skirt.

It's as simple as it gets.

Covering Shang Ya's body, it wraps the convex and curvaceous figure very tightly.

It's a textbook minimalist style.

There are no complicated and superfluous lines, the lower abdomen is flat, and the outline of the legs and forearms is very simple.

'It's this simple beauty, breathtakingly beautiful!'

Qin Huai couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and at the same time looked at Shang Ya intently.

"You...... You...... Don't stare at my sister like that!"

Shang Yaqiao's face turned red, and she hurriedly covered her chest and round snow-white shoulders with her arms.

So as not to be burned by Qin Huai's little brother's vision.

"Put your hands down and let me observe. ”

"What do you observe...... Don't give!"

"Don't make a fuss, I seem to be able to find wood carving inspiration from you. ”

Qin Huai was very serious.

Shang Ya's expression gradually became stunned, and she looked for inspiration from me?

Okay.

For the sake of Qin Huai's little brother's art, Shang Ya decided to sacrifice, so she obediently lowered her arm.

Anyway, she was also watched by her husband, and, for some reason, she had some little expectations, hoping that Qin Huai's little brother would unscrupulously violate her with his eyes.

Come to think of it.

Shang Ya bit her lip and turned her head, letting Qin Huai's gaze sweep unabashedly over her body.

"No, it's not just the line, it's the face...... The flat lower abdomen is the face. Arms, long legs are faces. The skirt wraps the legs and also forms the face.

The mutual care of simple lines and surfaces is far better than red tape. ”

The corners of Qin Huai's mouth raised slightly.

He understood.

He had previously tried to simplify the details of the town.

This is a subconscious attempt, because the green jade Kuilong tea set and the Taiji jade carving are all minimalist.

But for a multi-element wood carving town, the minimalist style does not meet the requirements.

There is a world of difference between jade carving and wood carving!

Think about it.

If Qin Huai used wood to carve a wood carving of people returning to people on a snowy night.

Will it have the same artistic conception as jade carving?

No.

If Qin Huai carved a green jade and dragon pattern tea set with wood carving, would it produce the same artistic conception?

No.

Therefore, the minimalist style comprehended on the jade carving is completely useless.

……

Afterward.

Qin Huai experimented with intricate details of carving.

It's from simple to complex.

However, due to too many details, the content was empty and had to be abandoned.

At last.

Fang is just now comprehending the minimalist style of lines and surfaces from Shang Ya.

This is from the complex to the simple, back to basics.

Without the foundation of simplicity and complexity, it is impossible for Qin Huai to comprehend how to use minimalist style in a hundred traditional skills.

Of course.

The minimalist style here is not the green jade kui dragon pattern tea set and the Taiji diagram jade carving.

The green jade kui dragon pattern tea set and the Taiji jade carving are all using beautiful colors to express the artistic conception.

There is no such thing as a beautiful carving in today's wood carvings!

Wood carving wants to express artistic conception, which is also completely different from jade carving.

Jade carving can make use of color and light transmittance, while wood carving cannot.

It's also easy to verify the difference between the two –

If Qin Huai used wood to carve a wood carving of people returning to people on a snowy night.

Will it have the same artistic conception as jade carving?

No.

If Qin Huai carved a green jade and dragon pattern tea set with wood carving, would it produce the same artistic conception?

No.

It can be seen that wood and jade are completely different, and wood carvings often have to be shaped to express their expressions.

And what Qin Huai just understood in Shang Ya is the truth of shaping!

……

"Life is the best teacher, and this teaching is better than a month of meditation. ”

Qin Huai remembered the wood carvings he saw in the museum some time ago.

In order to pursue Wu Daidangfeng and Cao Yi to see the water, those wood carvings often forcibly added intricate clothing to the figures.

In fact, the noise is dominant.

Qin Huai added a lot of details to his previous wood carving creations, which can be regarded as dominating.

And now, Qin Huai has moved from simplicity to complexity, and then comprehended from complexity to simplicity......

The hustle and bustle is gone.

The priorities are becoming clearer, everything is in order, and it is simple and rational.

Qin Huai recalled the young man's woodcarving, and couldn't help but show a look of sudden realization.

At that time, he didn't know why he insisted on destroying the wood carving of Juvenile You.

And now, Qin Huai understands and understands it.

First of all, the left and right sides of the wood carving are decorated with jade pendants and long swords.

Secondly, in order to depict the effect of walking against the wind, the young man's coat was carved with many lines.

Finally, the front of the fur is full of stars, and the back is the name of the dynasty.

There is so much red tape, which is dazzling, and it is obviously not divided into priority and priority, and the noise is dominant!

Qin Huai is extremely harsh, how can he be satisfied?

……

"It seems that I have integrated all the problems encountered in the creation of wood carving?"

Qin Huai raised his eyebrows in surprise and was shocked.

This flash of inspiration seems to have made him take a big step forward in the creation of wood carving?

It seems that there has been a substantial leap in the creative perception of wood carving?

"This time I realized, a lot of problems have been solved!"

Qin Huai showed a bright smile and looked at Shang Ya gratefully.

He had a hunch that tomorrow, he would be able to carve a wood carving that would amaze him.
