Chapter 762: Killing Two Birds with One Stone

Li Yan'er smiled and continued: "The little girl has always heard that the first son of Hangzhou is talented, and he knows everything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. β€œ

Shen Gongzi's handsome face turned red, and he said in surprise: "Miss Yan'er has won the award, and she only understands the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but she is not proficient?" β€œ

"Hmph, you still have some self-knowledge?" Yang Zheng snorted.

"Shen Gongzi is modest, some time ago I heard my father mention Shen Gongzi's "Painting Bamboo in the Rain" and greatly appreciated, saying that Gongzi painted two poles of rain and bamboo, standing next to the stone, the front rod was written in thick ink, and the latter rod was written in light ink. The gesture is thick and heavy, and the ink color is plump, which depicts the charm of the autumn wind and rain and the jade green pole vividly. The backward draping of the branches and leaves, the pitching and sparse pitching, and the perspective relationship between the front and back are also handled appropriately. Is it a rare good picture? The little woman is also very happy? β€œ

Yang Zheng was dissatisfied, and said in his heart: "It's just a bamboo painting, what clusters are stacked, and they are scattered." The gesture is heavy, the ink color is plump, the autumn wind and rain are drenched, and it sounds good, is this guy still serious? β€œ

Shen Gongzi heard Li Yan'er praise himself so much, his heart was very proud, and he said in his heart: "My guess is true, this Miss Li family is a character with a heavier connotation, if you say that poetry is talented, which picture scroll calligraphy is not a head better than everyone else, if you can paint a picture scroll today and give it to Miss Li family in person, I am afraid that it is a matter of nine out of ten to hold a beauty?" β€œ

As soon as Li Hai saw Li Yan'er coming, his eyes kept staring at Shen Gongzi and asking questions about the west, even the prince ignored him, he was both a little happy and a little jealous in his heart, and said in his heart: "This Li family woman is really a little different, the prince can ignore it at the moment, this is the first time I have seen such a scene!" ”

Shen Gongzi thought about his thoughts in his heart a few times, and felt that this method was the best, first, in front of everyone, he showed his talent, so that those guys who sighed that they were inferior could retreat from the difficulty, and second, he could take the opportunity to gain Li Yan'er's favor, so as to pave the way for the next beauty. It can be regarded as a thing that kills two birds with one stone and is extremely face-showing, how can you not do such a thing.

"Miss Yan'er, I saw the picturesque bamboo forest in front of you just now, and I want to draw a picture, it's better to choose a day than to hit the sun, I think how about painting a picture for Miss Yan'er today?" Shen Gongzi hugged his fists.

Li Yan'er seemed to only have Shen Gongzi in her eyes, ignoring everyone's shaking eyes, and said with a smile: "It's really a great pleasure in life to be lucky enough to see Shen Gongzi's picture scroll!" Come on, hurry up and prepare the four treasures of the study for Shen Gongzi! ”

Shen Gongzi hurriedly said: "More Yan'er girls are complete?" ”

Although everyone was dissatisfied that Li Yan'er only had Shen Gongzi in her eyes, the prince could bear it, how could they not bear it, so everyone was waiting for Shen Gongzi's picture.

In ancient times, the traditional form of painting was to use a brush dipped in water, ink, and color to paint on silk or paper. Tools and materials include brushes, ink, Chinese painting paints, rice paper, silk, etc., and the subject matter can be divided into figures, landscapes, flowers and birds, etc., and the techniques can be divided into figurative and freehand. Shen Gongzi likes the Song Dynasty Mi family father and son more ink dot dyeing, do not seek fine work, self-proclaimed "letter pen made, more to smoke clouds to cover the trees and stones, meaning it is enough" style of painting, weekdays to study the Mi family father and son's picture scroll, these years and through the guidance of famous masters, but also some small achievements, weekdays at home to paint some people, birds and beasts, landscapes, buildings, boats and cars, etc., are elegant and fresh. It was happily collected by some wealthy local businessmen, and gradually became pretentious, and today it is rare to have the opportunity to show it, and immediately gear up.

The maid in the house listened to the instructions, and had already sent the four treasures of the prepared study, of course, to paint a good picture scroll, but not just need some ancient ink to paint lifelike, painting developed to the Tang Dynasty, with heavy color and color as the mainstream, since the Song Dynasty ink painting prevailed, under the trend of literati standard and elegant, the use of color has a tendency to gradually decline; However, a painter should have an understanding of traditional painting pigments, develop them in a multifaceted way, or combine them with ink painting better, in order to be considered a first-class painter.

At this time, several tables and chairs have been sent by several maids with various other paints and utensils, and the small painting table has been filled with various things.

"My day, in order to satisfy this guy's personal desires, he wasted such people's and material resources, it's really hateful?" Yang Zheng was unhappy, so he had to scold a few times.

When everyone heard that Shen Gongzi was going to paint on the spot, they were curious and stretched their necks to watch, so it was not lively.

Seeing that everyone's eyes were successfully attracted by him, Shen Gongzi glanced at Yang Zheng proudly, pretended to roll up his sleeves, began to sharpen the ink, and moved the pen with a stroke.

Yang Zheng saw that this Shen Gongzi neither laid out, nor left blank spaces, a few simple glances, he knew that this Shen Gongzi's skills were not as high as everyone touted, when he was very young, he heard the teacher who taught him painting said that when a painter paints a painting, the person who appreciates it is not only to look at the picture so simple, but also to see whether a few items are exquisite in order to be regarded as a beautiful picture.

The first point is that the painter's work can express the author's achievements. The image of the picture is the specific work of the painter, and we often subjectively criticize the quality or badness of the painting, which is the most influenced by the painting work.

the second point is calligraphy; One of the differences between Chinese painting and Western painting is calligraphy. Chinese paintings are often accompanied by poems, and poems are the soul of the painting, sometimes a poem is like the finishing touch of the painting, so that the painting is full of color, and the calligraphy in the painting also affects the picture to the greatest. Most painters who are not good at calligraphy dare not write inscriptions, although they only have signatures. You can also get a glimpse of his skills.

The third point is skill; The longer a person has been engaged in calligraphy and painting, the skills he has shown are impossible for beginners to master. Especially calligraphy, the veteran duocang is powerful and vigorous. In terms of Chinese painting, its lines, designs, and landscapes also show the artist's skills. Therefore, artists with rich life often have different expressions in their works than younger painters, and this is the skill.

Of course, whether a picture scroll is good or not, in addition to the above three points, there are two points, one of which is like a Go player playing Go, which must be laid out.

The layout seems to be the design of the picture, but in fact, it is the world in the author's mind, which is expressed from the layout of the picture. There are many differences between Chinese painting and Western painting, the most obvious point is "blank", Chinese painting traditionally does not add a background color, so there is a lot of blank space, and sparse, dense, gathered, scattered is called the layout of blank space. In the blank space, some people fill in the blank with calligraphy, poems, seals, etc. There is also a blank space, so the author's uniqueness can be seen from the layout.

The last point is the finishing touch of the scroll, the poem in the painting. A poem in the picture often represents the owner's heart. A good poem can express the connotation and learning of the author, and a good poem can also play the role of the finishing touch. Only by achieving the above five points can it be regarded as a first-class landscape painting.

At this time, seeing that Shen Gongzi had painted a small building, he started to splash ink, and there was no painting, calligraphy, layout, or poetry, so he couldn't help but shake his head.

Shen Gongzi didn't realize it, he just wanted to show his talented side in front of everyone, and he flew into the air, and soon a landscape painting fell on the paper.

Shen Gongzi glanced at the picture scroll with great satisfaction, and then began to mention the poem, thinking that this courtyard today is not a little deep, so he wrote down the deep poems of Ouyang Xiu's courtyard on his own initiative.

After finishing this qiΔ“, he put away his brush, turned to Li Yan'er and the eldest lady and hugged his fists and said, "Two sisters, I've finished painting?" β€œ

Li Yan'er sighed, and her beautiful eyes immediately shone brightly, and she said in surprise: "So fast, Shen Gongzi is really fast in brushwork?" ”

Shen Gongzi was proud, but he said with a humble look on his face: "Sister Yan'er has won the award?" ”

"I wonder if I can take a look at Shen Gongzi's picture scrollβ€”?" Li Yan'er flashed her dark eyes and asked with a smile.

Shen Gongzi said: "Of course! β€œ

The two maids stepped forward one on the left and one on the right, and the picture scroll was gently raised to show everyone.

Yang Zheng also glanced at it curiously, surrounded by green bamboos on the picture, the forest is verdant, the stream is murmuring, under a few green bamboos, a small attic, dozens of sons dressed in Confucian clothes outside the door are talking happily, only one person is sitting alone in the corner of the bamboo forest, is concentrating on the case to read, there are teapots, tea cups and many tea sets at one end of the bookcase, and the shelves are full of calligraphy and painting in the depths of the bamboo. A maid in the side house is fanning the fire to cook tea, outside the right side of the house, lying on the bridge on the stream, a moving woman is coming slowly, behind a girl holding the piano to follow, the woman is looking at the corner of the bamboo forest with affection in her eyes......? β€œ

"Good painting, good painting, the characters on the picture scroll are vivid, the environment is elegant, it is rare to be on the bridge, the woman looks at it affectionately, it is too expressive, masterpiece, masterpiece, ......?" I don't know who shouted in the crowd first, and the shouts were endless for a while.

Shen Gongzi's face was full of pride, his eyes boldly looked at Li Yan'er, and said, "I don't know what Sister Yan'er thinks of this picture?" β€œ

Li Yan'er glanced at it with a smile, suddenly covered her small mouth and giggled, turned her head to the eldest lady and said, "Sister Peng, how do you look at this picture?" β€œ

The eldest lady looked at it and said softly: "This painting is good, but at first glance, it seems to be dripping with ink and swaying arbitrarily, savoring it carefully, what seems wrong?" However, Shen Gongzi's brushwork is profound, and the ink is just right, which is a rare good painting? ”
