Chapter 45 The Prairie is Picturesque
Yan Qiu continued to talk about the specific coloring methods of the ancients.
Everyone understands ink and wash landscapes, that is, to use thick and light ink instead of a qiē color, some with a wet pen to dye it, and some with a dry pen to wipe it. Some are dominated by thick ink and light ink, and some are dominated by blank ink and light ink are followed, bringing out the illusory and agile on the picture.
In order to show the seasonality of the four seasons, or the rising sun, clear lan, sunset, etc., the stone blue and stone green are used to depict the splendid rivers and mountains, and the cinnabar, stone yellow, and bai powder are used to decorate the autumn sun. Use rouge white fen, tender green and delicate yellow, to dye the brightness of spring.
The shallow method is to use ink and light ochre together, the body of the tree with ochre, the leaves with ink, the sunny side of the mountain stone with ochre, and the mountain stone with ink. Some only use light ochre to dye tree trunks and human faces, while the rest are all dyed with ink.
Yun Da nodded, as if listening with relish. And my fat brother and I have begun to sit still, because we don't understand at all, and we feel very bored. The fat brother asked: "You just said the Pythagorean theorem, do you also need the Pythagorean theorem for painting?" ”
Yan Qiu smiled and said: "The next thing is the point, Brother Yun can't copy Uncle Chen's paintings, just because Uncle Chen used the Pythagorean theorem that Fat Brother said." "In fact, Yan Qiu is talking about the technique of outlining, hooking, and boneless.
Outline, hook is to outline the outline of the object with ink lines, and Le is to retrace the outline that has been covered by color with ink lines, which is what we often call hook edges. However, the line is not necessarily still in ink, but in other colors darker than the object, which is more realistic.
Sketching is also to first outline the outline of the ink line, and then fill in the color along the inside of the ink line. It is not allowed to infringe on the original ink line, nor is it allowed to have a distance from the ink line, and the color filled in is not necessarily flat, but also to distinguish the thickness, depth, shade, light and dark. The use of color in the outline method requires more proficiency than the outline method. Judging from the paintings from the Eastern Jin Dynasty to the Northern Song Dynasty, outlining and outlining are commonly used.
I understand this, that is, the children color the outline of the album, and the outline is to accidentally cover the black edge when coloring, and then re-draw it. Ticking is very careful, perfect coloring.
In the end, Yan Qiu said that there is no bone method.
No bones means no outline, it is to compose the picture with ink lines on other paper in advance, and then put the drawn outline under the paper or silk to be painted. Then, use the sketches below to paint.
Because the outline outlined with an ink pen was interpreted in ancient times as "bone brush", also known as "bone energy", the edge of the hook was regarded as the skeleton of the painting. This kind of outline that does not need to be hooked is called the boneless method.
Yun Da asked, "Then you say, which method did Uncle Chen use?" ”
Yan Qiu replied: "He used the interspersed of hooks and bones, sketching the outlines on the main depicted objects, and coloring them completely at will on the back. In this way, the main and secondary can be clearly distinguished, and there is no need to use contrasting colors at all, but the coloring method of guò with and without edges has already reflected the key points in this painting. ”
Yun Da woke up like a dream, slapped the table and said: "I see, I said how I am always wrong, it turns out that people's methods have changed, from the difference of the canvas, to the choice of color, to the interspersing of the hook edge, it is simply amazing." I've learned for nothing in my life, and Teacher Yanqiu is really amazing. ”
I persuaded Yun Da and said, "It's okay, don't you know, go back and draw again." ”
Yun Da smiled and said, "The paintings are all for you, what should I paint?" ”
Everyone was amused by his words, not only because of his humor, but also because of the unhappiness at the painting stall before, and everyone became friends without fighting.
It is because of honesty between people that they are more harmonious and harmonious, and after thinking about it, an unpleasant thing is nothing more than because there is something to hide.
Jiang Li saw that we were talking and laughing, probably full, so he ran over and picked up a small cup of milk tea on my table, poured it into it with his neck tilted, and then asked with a smile, "What are you talking about?" So happy? Before she finished speaking, a full burp came up, and she quickly covered her mouth, for fear that the food that had been piled up in her throat would accidentally run away, and stared at us with two big eyes.
The crowd laughed even harder.
Yun Da wiped the tears from his laughter and said, "The thing is someone else's, but the stomach is your own, don't break it." ”
Jiang Li patted his already bulging belly and said with a smile: "No, I have a rubber belly, I can resist it when I am hungry, and when I see something delicious, I need to store it." ”
Xiaoxue walked from behind, patted Jiang Li, and said with a smile: "What's the hurry, when you arrive in Ulaanbaatar tomorrow, you have a lot of things you haven't eaten, so let you eat enough when the time comes." ”
When Jiang Li heard this, his eyes widened and he asked, "Is there anything delicious?" You don't say it sooner. I've eaten too much today, and I have to go out and digest it. So saying, he ran out.
We were all full of wine and food, so we followed Jiang Li and got up and walked out of the restaurant together.
Bidding farewell to Yun Da and the fat brother who was in a hurry to call Sister Hua, Yan Qiu and I strolled on the grassland away from the noise of tourists.
There is no sign of man-made destruction of the grass here, and even around the yurt door, there is a half-foot-long grass. Under the full moon, I breathed in the wet air, and my mood was extraordinarily comfortable.
I unconsciously took Yan Qiu's hand, and she naturally joined hands with me, as if she had long been used to being pulled by me, and no one talked to anyone, so she walked forward aimlessly.
I don't know what she's thinking at this moment, my mind is completely blank, it feels like sleepwalking, such a carefree walk with the girl I like, I'm afraid after so many experiences, it's already a luxury dream.
There are no traces of the tattoos on her hands, and if we really don't have anything to hide from each other, I really hope to go on like this.
We walked to the edge of a high slope, and Yan Qiu excitedly pointed to the distance and said, "Look." ”
The scenery presented in front of you is like a dream, on the dark green vast grassland, small patches of yurt groups, on the flat basin by the river at the bottom of the mountain, flickering lights in the distance. It is like a calm lake, under the light of the full moon, hazy wrapped in a layer of gold, and the scattered lights are the starlight in the sky reflected from the surface of the lake.
Under the thick and heavy mountains of the mountains, the turbulent river water emits bursts of water sounds, which faintly reach the ears, adding a bit of peaceful vitality to this beautiful scenery. A meteor glides across the skies as far as the eye can reach, like a firework lit by a naughty boy, to let us know that the picture in front of us is not an illusion, but a real thing.
I chuckled lightly and said to Yan Qiu, "Isn't this the painting you said?" An ancient painting that uses the boneless method. ”
Yan Qiu's answer to me was a hug and a kiss.
In this beautiful scenery, hugging her in my arms, letting her breath hit my face, forgetting unpleasant things, I am afraid that this is the happiness I am pursuing.
If I look back at this moment, I don't know if I can avoid the hard journey that has not yet come, maybe even if she wants to, I may not do it, because of my character, if I don't do everything cleanly, and all the things that may appear at any time and disturb our lives are all over, I am afraid that my heart will never be at peace.
After all the qiē has passed, I don't know if we can still be like today, in the moonlight, with a transparent heart, quietly embracing each other, letting the stars shine on our shoulders.
It wasn't until Yanqiu's body began to tremble because of the cold that I reluctantly let go of her, learned the scene on TV, put my coat on her body, rubbed my arms that were numb from the cold, and slowly walked back with her.
Walking to Yan Qiu's yurt, you can already hear the laughter of Xiaoxue and Jiang Li, who is still ranking the dishes for dinner.
I kissed Yanqiu lightly on the forehead, looked at her and sent her back to the yurt, and I walked quickly back to our residence with a very happy mood.
In the yurt were four iron frame beds painted with green paint, and the fat brother and the driver had already gotten into the bed, but the lights had not been turned off.
I turned off the light bulb, got into the quilt and began to undress in the dark, the bed here is obviously much softer than the kang in Aunt Dan's place, it must be because of the mattress underneath, from eating to living are much more upscale than before.
I asked the fat brother while undressing, "Did you call?" Are Sister Hua and Lu Shan okay? ”
The fat brother said: "Okay, your sister Hua now eats fruit every day, and said that the girl who was born is watery." Lu Shan misses you, and she cried when she called. I wonder how long it will take us to go back? Don't worry when you Sister Hua was pregnant, I was always not around, and the child I gave birth to was not like me, so it would be troublesome. ”
I didn't speak again, thinking about what to say when I went back, so that Lu Shan could accept my relationship with Yanqiu.
The fat driver replied: "Soon, I'll be in Ulaanbaatar tomorrow." ”
