00196 Beyond the Ability, the Real Round Carving
"Next, I will take the process of making the statue of the goddess of victory to tell you about the round carving, you have to listen carefully, if you don't understand something, you must ask."
Albeni wanted to train Wang Ding to become an excellent carving master, but he didn't know that Wang Ding was absent-minded at this time.
However, when he heard Albeni say that he would use the Statue of Victory as a guiding material, Wang Ding's interest was raised again.
But Wang Ding never imagined that the clay sculpture that Albeni would present in front of him was not the goddess of victory at all, but a large piece of three-dimensional square clay sculpture raw material, which had not undergone any processing at all.
"Wang Ding, this is a large piece of clay sculpture material, you don't see him at all aesthetic now, but through the hands of the sculptor, it can turn decay into magic, do you believe it or not?"
The aura flowing out of Wang Ding's jade plate can help him see the growth space of imperfect sculptures, but Wang Ding can't see the raw materials.
Wang Ding didn't speak, but Albeni did it directly.
Seeing that Albeni had brought a hammer and a chisel, and divided it by two, he struck some of the clay blocks on the clay sculpture.
The stones that were originally square suddenly became angular and angular, and Albeni asked Wang Ding again at this time.
"Now that you look at this clay sculpture, do you think it has changed?"
Wang Ding said that it is true that the aura in his jade plate has reacted a little now, but because Albeni's carving is not the outline of the goddess of victory, the aura cannot perfect this work at all.
However, aside, Wang Ding was attracted by Albeni's carving. Immediately, he really threw himself into the carved world. Look at the clay sculpture in front of you.
"Just now, the whole clay sculpture is not partitioned. After the teacher knocked and chiseled like this, there were several divisions, limbs, heads, and now I see the limbs and the head, and they have a clear boundary. ”
Wang Ding pointed to the clay sculpture and told Albeni, who was immediately satisfied with Wang Ding's answer.
"Yes, you're right. Taking the figure as an example, we generally have to chisel out the body of the limbs other than the volume of the head, and then chisel the head, chest, and pelvis out of the block surface. Then chisel out the surface of the shape block, such as vertical, oblique, etc. After the basic shape of the human body is completed, the concave and convex shapes of each part are chiseled out one by one according to the structure and proportion of the human body, such as between the cheeks and the facial features, between the chest and the neck, and between the breast and the chest. ”
Albeni said. On the other hand, he continued to beat and beat with the chisel in his hand. The clay sculpture of the geometric body has lines in the next second, and the relationship between the large forms and proportions is beginning to take shape.
Wang Ding was deeply attracted, although, relying on the aura Wang Ding can be the icing on the cake in the most difficult process of sculpture, but if there is no early learning of this craft, Wang Ding knows that the sculpture itself is still a layman.
However, Mr. Albeni's personal words and deeds made Wang Ding know the method of sculpture, and even more, Wang Ding wanted to experience the feeling of carving.
Albeni seemed to see Wang Ding's expectation, but he didn't think about asking Wang Ding to do it at the moment.
For a beginner, Albeni always felt that Wang Ding did not have that ability, put down the chisel and hammer in his hand, Albeni changed the tool, at this time, in his hand was a smaller flat chisel and round chisel.
"Wang Ding, after the construction of the large shape, what we need to apply is our own painting skills, but what we paint is not on paper, but on the sculpture, we use a brush or other water pen to draw a general outline on the material, and then remove the excess material other than the outline with the help of axes and carving tools, and then use the tools in my hand to carve out the structure of the figure in turn, the relationship between the facial features and the virtual and real of the clothing pattern, especially in the treatment of the character's dress, pay attention to the virtual and real, moving, wet and dry, straight, gathering and scattering, Methods of expression such as hanging must have a certain talent and talent in painting before they can be completed. ”
Albeni was already shaking the chisel, and he wiped away the clay striking, but Wang Ding's eyes miraculously reproduced the image of the goddess of victory.
What is even more visible is the image of the part engraved by Albeni, and it is true that it is the aura that comes into play, so that Wang Ding can see the painting, and then process the current work according to the ups and downs of the characters in the painting.
"Teacher, you don't seem to have cut that part enough."
Wang Ding couldn't help but speak, and Albeni was shocked, saw the position of Wang Ding's finger, and after a few seconds of calculation, he nodded with satisfaction, and said busily, "Yes, your memory is really good, this position is a bit thick, you have to scrape it again." ”
Albeni didn't expect that Wang Ding was so powerful, and he had only seen the goddess of victory a few times, and he was able to grasp the proportions and dimensions of the statue of the goddess of victory, which was not bad in the slightest.
Albeni's subsequent carving took him a lot of time, and this was still based on Albeni's frequent creation of the Statue of Victory, and if it were left to others, it would certainly not be possible to complete this initial form in a day.
After the second process was done, Albeni looked at Wang Ding again and taught carefully, "Wang Ding, we have gone through two processes from rough to fine, and the third step is that we have to repair the light on the basis of the fine billet, the so-called polishing task is to repair the unwanted knife marks and chisel marks, and at the same time portray the subtle shape of each part clearly, and strive to achieve a smooth and smooth artistic effect with clear texture." We use small flat knives, small round knives, triangular knives, etc. These small tools are more conducive to the realization of our character's expressions, and the folds of our clothes. Would you like to try carving it? ”
Albeni on the way to teach Wang Ding, he felt that this Wang Ding is not simple, he should have a certain sculpture skills, although he may have never tried sculpture, but from his expression, Albeni can see his self-confidence, or Wang Ding is a genius in this area, he has a strong talent, and this talent is called he can learn sculpture just under the simple guidance of others, and he has the style of a sculptor.
Wang Ding looked at the current work, after the first two processes, Wang Ding Dafan has been able to know where the defects are and where to be improved through the aura.
Since it is learning, it should be done in person, Wang Ding said, "It's good, I'll give it a try." ”
As soon as Wang Ding took the small flat knife in the hands of Master Albeni, two people came to the studio, and before Wang Ding could turn around to see who was coming, Dawei had already called out first. (To be continued......)
