Chapter 234: Training
"However, some things have nothing to do with age, but with understanding." Su Shanyun said with a smile.
"Yes, it does have a lot to do with it, and it can at least determine whether a person can succeed faster or not. However, even if a person has a high level of talent, if he does not work hard and persists enough, he will not be able to go far. Qingyun looked at her with a friendly look in his eyes.
Su Shanyun nodded again and again.
"Therefore, there are also some people who are not very talented, but they are willing to work hard, and in the end they can still achieve great success." Qingyun said.
Su Shanyun understood that she was warning herself not to rely too much on talent, but to work hard in a down-to-earth manner.
"Yes, the juniors will follow your teachings." Su Shanyun saluted her respectfully.
"How about we draw a picture together?" Qingyun Jushi smiled and proposed.
This is a rare opportunity to see! Su Shanyun thought to herself, and hurriedly said, "That's great! ”
So Qingyun spread out a scroll-shaped white paper on the desk, and placed the previously ground ink in a place just enough for both of them to reach.
Su Shanyun stood side by side with her, waiting with bated breath for her to make the first stroke.
"Let's draw a picture of the Eight Beauties." Qingyun said.
"Okay." Su Shanyun nodded.
Qingyun closed his eyes and thought for a moment, then picked up a thin pen and solemnly dropped the first stroke on the paper. Then, as if a divine help, the pen kept wandering in her hand, never to stop.
The silhouette, expression, and movements of the ladies were slowly revealed.
She didn't stop her pen until she finished drawing the image of a lady.
And Su Shanyun looked at her blankly, forgetting to put down the pen.
It's amazing. In the hands of Qingyun Jushi, the pen seemed to be endowed with spiritual power, and the lady she drew was also surprised by the moving form, realism and richness of her expression.
This must be something that has been carefully observed by countless people, right?
In this way, after looking at the lady she painted, Su Shanyun was so shy that she didn't dare to write at all.
"Paint, the highest level of painting is to vividly express all your feelings about life, regardless of technique." Qingyun said.
Su Shanyun nodded, took a deep breath and began to paint.
Qingyun Jushi continued to paint the second lady.
Su Shanyun observed Qingyun while painting.
She found that the latter could finish each time she drew a lady with a single stroke, never stopping in the middle of the drawing, and always paying full attention during the painting, so that she could complete it quickly.
And Su Shanyun took three times as long to finish painting the four ladies she wanted to paint.
Su Shanyun immediately understood the reason why she was so much slower than her: first, the training on weekdays was far from enough. Second, when painting, I did not reach the state of self-forgetfulness. 3. Too little life experience. Fourth, lack of self-confidence.
"Layman, what do you do on weekdays?" Su Shanyun devoted herself to seeking advice.
"Look carefully at everything you can see. Then draw them down. But it's the people I observe the most. ”
"But you live in the mountains."
I don't think I can see many people, right?
"Yes. But every three months, I would go out to the mountain, find a place near the window and sit down to observe the passers-by, copy their expressions and movements, and then go back and train repeatedly. Until they are painted vividly. ”
Su Shanyun suddenly realized.
Before leaving, Su Shanyun asked, "Layman." Do you still publish albums? ”
"Yes."
"How often do you usually publish a volume?"
"A year if it's fast. Three years if it's slow. ”
"Does it take that long to paint at your pace?"
"Usually after I finish painting, I look for its shortcomings, and as long as I find shortcomings, I have to redraw it."
"Understood. Hopefully we'll see you again. ”
"Okay."
Su Shanyun walked out of her room.
However, she stopped after only a few steps.
"It's afternoon, you must be hungry, right? There are also some steamed buns and rice porridge in the temple. Do you want to eat something before you go? Qingyun asked with concern.
Su Shanyun was shocked to realize that her stomach was hungry, so she said, "Okay, thank you!" ”
So I followed her to the kitchen.
Immediately, a nun served her porridge, and Qingyun brought out a plate of steamed buns and a plate of glutinous rice cakes from another room.
"Everything is relatively simple, I hope you don't mind." Qingyun said.
"No, it's fine." Su Shanyun said busily.
Qingyun Jushi took out two more butterflies and distributed them to Su Shanyun's subordinates.
It was not suitable to rush immediately after the meal, so Su Shanyun chatted with Qingyun again.
"Do you come to this temple often?" Su Shanyun asked her.
"Yes, ClearSky Mage is my sister." Qingyun said.
"Oh. Have you been alone all the time? Su Shanyun asked.
Qingyun nodded.
A hundred kinds of people have a hundred ways to live, and Su Shanyun thinks that Qingyun Jushi is also very good like this.
After a while, Su Shanyun got up and said goodbye.
After coming back, Su Shanyun asked Su Ziming to help her put a wooden bench on the branch of the big tree on the west side of Su Mansion that she could sit on, and put a small wooden ladder under the big tree, so that she could sit on the wooden bench every day and observe the people on the street.
She was going to spend half to an hour a day observing and copying passers-by.
Since she paints pictures of ladies, most of the subjects she observes are women.
Whether it's frontal, sideways, down, up, strolling, or strolling, all of them can be used as her material.
However, the facial expressions of some very good-looking men will also be adopted by her.
For such a period of time, as long as she closes her eyes, she can have countless images of ladies, and the characters drawn are more realistic and expressive!
Looking at the painting that made her more and more satisfied, she sincerely thanked Qingyun Jushi.
…………
At the beginning of April, the matchmaker Ouyang brought the Yan family to set a marriage date for Yan Jinxuan and Su Shanyun.
"The Yan family went to find someone to calculate, the nineteenth day of the first month of the following year is suitable for marriage, and Miss Su was also sixteen years old at that time, which is the best age for a woman......" Ouyang said to Su Ziming.
"Mm-hmm, that's a good time period." Su Ziming said.
"Do you have any opinions?" Su Ziming asked Mrs. Xiao and Zhang Ying again.
"I'm okay with that." Old Madam Xiao said with a smile. She wished they had married sooner.
"Why don't you ask what Shanyun means?" Zhang Ying proposed. Although the marriage is decided by her parents, Zhang Ying hopes that Su Shanyun likes it.
"Mm-hmm, that's fine. Green Lotus, go and call the eldest lady over. Su Ziming said.
Soon, Su Shanyun came over.
"Second Master Yan is going to marry you on the nineteenth day of the first month of the year after next, do you have any opinions?" Su Ziming looked at Su Shanyun and asked.
Su Shanyun immediately blushed when she heard this, and hurriedly said, "No opinion." ”
"Then it's decided." Su Ziming said with a smile.
The whole family smiled with satisfaction.
Immediately, everyone's eyes fell on Su Shanyun.
Su Shanyun was extremely uncomfortable by everyone, and hurriedly found an excuse to leave the living room. (To be continued......)
