Chapter 46: Sprout
"Oh, Xiaohan, do you have any suggestions?" Chen Hanzhong found that this niece was always shocking and surprising. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Xiao Han smiled, pointed to the painting on the wall and said: "These words were painted by my grandfather and you, although the technique still needs to be improved, but the artistic conception is good, and it is quite aura." Uncle, have you ever thought about starting from this aspect and finding another way? ”
When Chen Hanzhong heard this, he was immediately deflated. Although I like to paint, my paintings are relatively mediocre, and it is difficult to get into the elegant hall. How can you make a success with this?
Xiao Han knew what he was thinking, and he didn't think about it, and slowly explained the knowledge he had learned in art class in his previous life: The paintings from ancient times to the present, whether they are figure paintings, landscapes, flowers and birds, all emphasize the melting of things and the self, create artistic conceptions, and achieve the purpose of depicting gods with form, both form and spirit, and vivid charm. In general, it is important to look like a god rather than a form, and to emphasize artistic conception rather than a scene.
Chen Hanzhong was surprised when he heard her say the truth, but he didn't expect her to know how to draw. Chen Qingming looked at Xiao Han, and only felt that her body seemed to be glowing when she was seriously talking at this time.
"I know that there is a way of painting called 'Western painting', which is different from the way we know it. ”
Xiao Han saw that his uncle leaned forward slightly, looking at her intently, and continued to tell the different characteristics of Western painting and Chinese painting according to the knowledge in his memory:
"The paintings we are familiar with are often represented by lines, and most of the lines are not the original of the objects, but are used by the painter to represent the realm of the two objects. For example, when drawing a human face, draw a line in the shape of an egg to represent the human face, but in fact, the human face does not have this line, and draw a curved line to represent the human nose, but in fact, there is no such line on the nose. These lines are just the dividing line between the face and the background, or the dividing line between the nose and the face. The same is true when drawing clothes, where the lines are meant to represent the folds. For example, landscapes, flowers and birds, etc., there are no lines on the real thing, but when we paint, we use lines to outline them. This is to express the texture of mountain rocks and tree bark. ”
Chen Hanzhong nodded frequently when he heard this, indeed, the paintings he had seen were like this, and this kind of painting method was also ancient, and no one had ever explored it.
"But this is not the case with Western paintings, where there are boundaries of various objects, but there are no lines on them. So Western paintings look really similar, but ours doesn't look like real things, and you know it's a painting at a glance.
Also, the paintings we see don't have a heavy background, leaving a lot of room for blank space. For example, in painting plum blossoms, one hangs in the air, and there is white space on all sides. The same is true for drawing figures, where a person hangs in the air, as if riding a cloud. For example, a long piece of paper, with a vegetable or a stone drawn underneath, becomes a painting. This is not the case with Western paintings, where everything must have a background, for example, when painting fruits, the background is the table. Draw people in the background of the interior or the wild. The screen is completely filled in, leaving no blanks. Western painting is realistic, so the background must be depicted. Our paintings are re-expressive, so we need to remove the trivial things so that the things that are highlighted make a strong impression......"
Xiao Han talked eloquently, Chen Hanzhong listened attentively, he never thought that there was such a way of painting, he loved to paint, but he didn't have the guidance of a famous teacher for a while, he only knew how to imitate, today Xiao Han's words opened a door in his world, and a seed sprouted in his heart.
Several children were also fascinated by the hearing, and they opened their mouths and looked at Xiao Han in a daze, not knowing what kind of surprise and joy she could bring.
Xiao Han looked at their admiration, and felt embarrassed, she only knew a rough idea, she didn't understand it very well, and she couldn't draw, it would be best if she could explain while drawing.
She went on to explain other aspects of Western painting, such as focusing on perspective, anatomy, and so on.
Chen Hanzhong has never heard of this, but at the same time feels that these views are justified.
He asked Xiao Han who he was listening to. Xiao Han had already thought of countermeasures, and said that he was listening to Chu Zhao. Because he traveled all over the country, and met people from the countries of the west, who were white-skinned, blond-haired, and blue-eyed, and that was how they painted. Chen Hanzhong was convinced.
Xiao Han finally concluded: "Uncle, maybe these techniques are not accepted by today's people. However, as the saying goes, if my uncle can learn from the strengths of other families and integrate the techniques of Western painting into his paintings, so as to create his own painting style that is different from today's, he may become a generation of famous painters in the future. ”
Chen Hanzhong didn't seem particularly excited when he heard this, because he knew how difficult it was to create a new style of painting, and that this road still needed to be explored, and that he might fall, or that he might break his head and bleed, or that it might be very long. However, this is indeed an opportunity, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and he is fortunate enough to understand this knowledge, so he has to put it into practice. Anyway, it is impossible for me to have any achievements in the imperial examination, so it is better to study my painting skills well.
It was Xiao Han's words that made him make up his mind, which created his future achievements and status in the art world.
Next, Xiao Han introduced him to the technique of "sketching", so that he had to take his brushes and sketchpads to the field to watch and paint in his spare time, capturing the fleeting changes of light and shadow and the change of color, instead of writing only from memory at home, because people's memories have times when they are forgotten. He also explained to him how to make a drawing board, and told Xiaoxue that he could make such a bag, sewing a lot of small pockets and putting some bits and pieces.
Xiaoxue was very excited when she heard that she finally used herself, nodded her head again and again, and ran out in a hurry and said that she would make it for her father immediately.
Xiao Han saw that what he should have said had been finished, and he also followed Xiao Xue behind. Everyone came back to their senses and found that it was not early, and dinner was going to be eaten later.
Several boys quietly exited the door, leaving Chen Hanzhong alone in the house to ponder.
During dinner, Zhao saw that her husband and children were frequently looking at Xiao Han and kept serving her vegetables, and they were very enthusiastic about her, and they felt very strange. Xiao Han looked at the dishes piled up in the bowl like a small mountain, and smiled bitterly, unable to resist this excessive enthusiasm.
In order to divert everyone's attention, she hurriedly asked her father about the situation of going to find that Master Wang.
Lin Jincai excitedly said that he had made an appointment, and after the New Year, he would go to buy bricks and tiles. The sediment is dug by the river, and the wood is cut in the mountains. But I still have to hire a carpenter master Yunyun. The topic was immediately diverted, building a house was a big deal, and everyone was excited to discuss it.
At night, Lin Jincai and his wife have a separate room, Xiaohan and Xiaoxue have a room, and Lixia and the spring equinox sleep in a room with Qingming.
Qingming couldn't help but ask what the spring equinox "Journey to the West" was, and he wouldn't give up if he didn't tell him. The brothers were so annoyed by him that they were so proud that they finally knew something that their cousin didn't know, and they wanted to share it with him, so they told him the story as it was.
Chen Qingming was deeply attracted when he heard the beginning, and after listening to it, he scratched his ears and cheeks, and kept asking and urging the spring equinox to go down. It's a pity that I've only listened to a few episodes of the spring equinox, and I said that I would tell him when my sister talked about it later.
Qingming is itching in his heart, but there is no way, he can't go over and pull Xiao Han and let her talk. Thinking that she would be leaving tomorrow and not being able to hear the story anymore, my heart became depressed.
He tossed and turned like a pancake, annoying Lixia: "Anyway, we will go to school together soon, and it will be the same to tell you about it then." ”
"Then it's going to take a long time, no, I'll go back with you tomorrow. Anyway, I haven't been to my aunt's house for a long time, so I'll go play for a few days. He thought of the idea and shouted with joy.
"Then you have to agree with your grandmother, uncle and aunt. Lixia poured cold water on him.
Qingming replied affirmatively: "Grandma loves me the most, and she will agree." She agreed, and her father and mother must have agreed. ”
That night, Chen Qingming was immersed in excitement and couldn't sleep for a long time.
There is another person who also has difficulty sleeping, and that is Chen Hanzhong. He pondered hard in his study, holding a paintbrush and trying constantly, but he couldn't find a way.
Zhao saw that her husband was still not resting late at night, so she came to look for him. Seeing his distressed and impatient appearance, he asked the reason and said with a smile: "Husband, you are a scholar, and you know more than me." There is a saying that 'it is better to read ten thousand books than to travel ten thousand miles.' It's not enough to just sit here and meditate, but also to go out and see more as Xiao Han said. Isn't there a river called Qingshui River on my sister's side, and the scenery there is very beautiful. If you have time to visit more often, you might be inspired. ”
Chen Hanzhong listened to her words and felt that it made sense, stood up and said, "Lady, you are right, I am too eager for quick success. Meals should be eaten one bite at a time, and the road should be walked step by step. It can't be done all at once. ”
Then he put his arm around her waist and whispered in her ear: "It's late at night, lady, let's go rest, I've snubbed you for my husband." ”
Seeing him like this, Zhao smacked him with a red face, and the two hugged each other to rest without mentioning it.
In Xiaoxue's house, Xiao Han remembered the question in his heart, and took advantage of the opportunity of only two people to test her: "Xiaoxue, do you know the story of "Journey to the West"?"
Xiaoxue immediately became excited, and turned her head to look at her curiously: "Cousin, I was about to ask you, but I heard what the spring equinox said, what is "Journey to the West"." ”
Xiao Han carefully observed her expression and found that it didn't seem to be a fake. I breathed a sigh of relief in my heart, she would rather not be her, otherwise she would have given up her life in vain.
She relaxed and told her a story. Xiao Han said much more vividly than the spring equinox, so tonight is also a sleepless night for Xiao Xue, but she is small after all, and when Xiao Han is so sleepy that she sleeps, she has to close her eyes, thinking about Sun Wukong in her head, and unconsciously fell asleep.
In the dream, he became the Monkey King, who would change seventy-two times, and ride the somersault cloud to fight monsters......
