Chapter 12, leaf carving
The day of the drawing competition.
The students of the art department of the Department of Chinese have become the most eye-catching cunzài.
You talk about school, too.
Since art students are allowed to participate in the competition, they still ask others to sign up, isn't it just to make green leaves for others.
Fortunately, the school also has a rule, that is, art students can only advance to two in the semi-finals, which basically ensures that students from other majors can still have a third place.
In the entire Chinese Department, a total of 30 students signed up for the competition, all of whom were outstanding players selected by various majors.
There are two Chinese languages, which is considered to have a small number of participants among the majors.
But speaking of which, less and more is better than more and indiscriminate.
Those who spoke Chinese as a foreign language participated in five or six, but when the paintings they made were finally scored, the judges gave less than six points one by one.
Two people from the Advertising TV News program broke out of the encirclement and entered the semi-finals.
The art class naturally made the next two people to advance.
One of the students from secretarial education took the last train of the semi-finals, and the editing and publishing major was shortlisted for the semi-finals because of their good work.
In addition, Jiang Hai's works of my grandfather, as well as other works that Hao Le changed his mind to, these two guys also got the tickets to the next stage.
A total of ten works advanced to the semi-finals, except for the six people who failed to sink into the sand in Chinese, other majors have been promoted.
The results of the voting will directly determine the object of the next round of the showdown, as well as the two places that will be directly guaranteed to advance to the final without passing through the semi-finals.
"Xi Qing. Our works have been placed in the middle of the AB teaching building for exhibition, and the top two votes will directly enter the finals. The remaining eight will have to take the rematch duel with more votes and fewer votes. You don't want to go out and see, canvassing? ”
Looking at Xi Qing who was lying on the bed leisurely, Hao Le asked a little anxiously.
"Hao Le, is canvassing useful? The first two don't have to think about it, they must be the two big beauties in the art category. I've heard that those two beauties have mobilized the whole dormitory to canvass for votes. People's slender waist, fat hips, big white legs, you can pull others? ”
"That's right. It seems that it can only be a rematch and one more round to enter the finals. I just don't know what the rematch will be? ”
Xi Qingdao: "The questions of the semi-finals are definitely much more difficult than those of the preliminary round. So you have to dabble in a little bit more of the subject matter. ”
"Why, you're not nervous. What if I am eliminated and can't make it to the finals? ”
Xi Qing said indifferently: "What am I nervous about." Hao Le, in fact, I don't have much hope for this painting competition at all. It's all about playing with you. I'm very happy to be in the semi-finals. Okay, I'm going to carve, let's go! ”
Coming to the street near the school, Xi Qing began to carve, and just as he was about to make an embryo of a walnut coiling dragon, several "literati and ink writers" came forward.
This wave of tourists came from Los Angeles, a total of five people, as the birthplace of the Yellow River Basin culture, Los Angeles has always had a lot of cultural people, these people can especially see this temperament.
The leader, a man in his fifties with slightly white sideburns, shook a fan, and the words on the fan were the preface to the Lanting collection of "Wang Xizhi".
In the ninth year of Yonghe, the age is in Guichou, and at the beginning of late spring, it will be in the Lanting of Huiji Shanyin......
The others also have long beards and coats, and they have a good temperament.
"Young man, your carved wood knick-knacks are good." One of the elders said that it was very kind.
"Hehe, it's okay, I learned this when I was a child, and it's been ten years this year." Xi Qing is very confident.
"What are you doing here?"
"I'm just about to beat a walnut coiled dragon. But old man, you buy things, I'll stop this work first. ”
"Little brother, don't. We're in no hurry to buy things, and if you don't mind, just carve it in front of a few of our old guys, we want to see your craftsmanship in person. The old man said earnestly and meaningfully.
Xi Qing really hadn't done this as a customer before, but when people mentioned yì and decided whether to buy it or not after looking at the craftsmanship, Xi Qing still readily agreed: "That's it, good!" ”
Holding a walnut in his left hand, according to the image of the dragon after the coil sketched in his mind, Xi Qing carved the knife with his right hand and began to cut the knife. Speaking of the impression of dragons, the most profound thing is the fire dragon in the movie "The Hobbit", the fire dragon breathes fire, forcing the little hobbit to run crazy all over the world, and it is really a very fierce image. Then what impressed Xi Qing was the cover of the tomato novel Panlong, and the dragon was also Shen Yun, combining the two, Xi Qing was already in his chest.
Feeling the walnut, holding a knife to remove the excess material first, with the help of a saw to retain the proper wood, after making a three-dimensional layout in his mind, Xi Qing began to carve; The qi flowed and converged, and the carving knife began to change according to the image of the coiled dragon in Xi Qing's mind.
The difficulty of carving the coiled dragon is that the curved part uses one of the most difficult carvings in the carving: leaf carving.
Leaf carving is a carving form derived from the shape of a fern leaf, and its flowing shape has a sense of movement, this carving is mainly composed of the shape of the guò concave and convex carving, and the difficulty is in dealing with a series of concave and convex turning points.
In the past, it was indeed difficult for Xi Qing to grasp the accuracy, but at that time, Xi Qing relied on shallow experience and not very powerful eyesight, but now with the help of the spiritual flow, even if Xi Qing closes his eyes, he knows where the carving knife is, no matter straight lines, arcs, turns, unobstructed.
Especially his spinning carving, the five old gentlemen were simply stunned. In fact, these old gentlemen have been paying attention to Xi Qing for a few days, and they came to Binjiang from Los Angeles this time, just to have a little work to do.
A few days ago, Hu Zhongxian got a carving of Monkey King from a friend, speaking of which, this carving is the one carved by Xi Qing in his hometown.
It is not sandalwood, but the blue fruit wood carved by Xi Qing later.
It's just that this Monkey King of Blue Fruit Wood has seen the charm.
This blue fruit tree fell into the hands of Hu Zhongxian, and naturally it was connected with its story.
Hu Zhongxian heard that there was a young man whose carving skills even surpassed that of Mr. Lin Fashu, so he appreciated it with four old friends who had a good time, and they all felt that the skills were extraordinary, so he and a few friends hurried from Los Angeles to see Xi Qing.
