That's not right.

Professor Boggs is confident that his technique is not inferior to that of any painter who can breathe and cannot breathe in the past.

What went wrong?

His gaze was fixed on the painting in front of him.

He received more information than Ms. Anya.

In Boggs' mind, he can clearly reproduce the color changes of each paint trace on the display.

He could even imagine the gentle touch of the painting as the knife was pushed against the canvas and the pigment filling penetrated deep into the plant fibers.

Any touch, any push, all effortless, just right.

This feeling did not frighten Professor Boggs, only excite.

No matter how beautiful the detective cat's work is, how high the technique is.

Boggs can do the same.

Not to mention anything else, his own set of drawings looked at with a magnifying glass, and there was a point where there were similar flaws.

Color, composition?

The paintings of the detective cat are warmer in color and more inclined to express the dynamism of the picture.

The milky white cat's eyes have a slight orange-red tinge in the light.

The color treatment at the core of the picture is more warm.

The edges are less pure, and everything facing the sun produces a noticeable highlight.

All these treatments make the painting appear more realistic.

In Amy, he chooses a more black-and-white approach, where warm and cold tones collide with each other on the canvas and merge with each other.

At this point, the detective cat and himself do adopt diametrically opposed handling habits.

However, Professor Boggs doesn't feel like he's doing anything worse than Detective Cat.

A slightly realistic.

A little freehand.

It's just two different ways of painting, and there is no difference between good and bad.

His twelve paintings are a set of contrasting philosophical wholes, in terms of the idea of art.

Professor Boggs thinks he's going to be better!

"Exactly...... What kind of panacea did Detective Cat add to his work? ”

Boggs was puzzled.

This kind of line, technique, color, is no worse than the other party's work, and the feeling of drawing it is just missing a little bit of meaning is simply terrible.

His head shook like a wave drum.

The cat above his head felt unsteady under his feet, so he pulled his claws out of the professor's thin fingers and jumped off the top of the old man's gray-haired head.

The room was lit with the lights off and it was dim.

Professor Boggs's entire mind was drawn to the television screen in front of him.

So he didn't notice.

In the darkness, the kitten that jumped over his head didn't shrink into a corner like it had been when Tony had dropped it.

It rolled on the ground, tentatively slipped a few steps forward, found a seat in the gap between the feet of a pair of leather shoes in the shadows under the television, and sat on its tail.

The kitten raised its round little head, its eyes narrowed into slits, and looked curiously at the picture on the screen.

It is both confused and serious, staring at the TV with a little hesitation, sticking out its tongue and licking its pink nose from time to time, like a viewer in an art museum standing in front of a portrait of a beautiful woman.

Jane Arnold felt the warm, soft touch of her ankle through her sock.

The master illustrator bows his head.

He stared at the extra cat at his feet for a few seconds without saying a word.

He took a small step to the side, leaving a place for the kitten to look at the painting in the front row.

Then Jane Arnold pursed her lips, raised her head again, and looked around, searching the room for her target.

At this time, Dr. Kim Anqing was also looking at Jane Arnold.

The eyes of the two men met in the air, and after a moment, they both read the rapid heartbeat in their chests.

"Amy." - The moment when the painting on the screen lights up.

Both the doctor and the illustrator heard the whisper from Tony's child.

A work that is attractive enough that it only takes one look for people to fall in love with it.

Whether you like it or not, your heartbeat and pulse will tell you the answer.

The painting "Pet Love" that Ms. Anya has been working on in her room for many days, no matter how much the assistant tries to make a fool of herself, Tony doesn't react like a wooden man.

Boggs's paintings, however, have attracted Tony's curiosity.

This is the difference in the audience's perception of the painting.

And pretty much the painting.

Tony saw that Boggs's work shouted "Cat Cat", and in front of the painting of Detective Cat Lady, he didn't need Dr. Kim Anqing's verbal guidance at all, and called "Amy".

Although it cannot be ruled out that it is due to the fact that it is born once and cooked twice.

Master Jane Arnaud still feels that this is another step forward in making judgments.

As a master of fairy tales, he may have a deeper understanding of this work than Professor Boggs.

Professor Boggs made a name for himself with his ability to depict the unique texture of pine needles in the woods on a snowy night on a snowy night on a road that is about to melt the snow.

To this day, the tenured professor at the Brooklyn School of Art is still best at, landscape painting.

Jane Arnaud is familiar with the various animal images that appear in fairy tales.

Illustrators eat this bowl of rice for a living.

Cats, hounds, river rats, swans, toads, brown bears...... Jane Arnaud has seen countless cartoon animals in her paintings.

Almost instantly, Jane Arnaud discovered the essence of this work by the anonymous illustrator.

It's the cat.

That one...... Amy.

Even if it's yourself.

The characters portrayed in "Miracle of Oz" are all anthropomorphic cartoon cats, and the cute image of the cat's eyes in this work is so natural that it is as natural as a lifelike real cat.

There are some temperaments in the bones that are difficult to show in virtual cartoon characters.

The kind of curious and intimate demeanor when meeting the little master, the nose sniffing lightly on Tony's scalp.

Jane Arnold really felt like she had traveled through decades of time.

He had just finalized a five-year contract with the Scholastic Group in New York that year, but received a call from his wife telling him that his four-year-old son had been diagnosed with autism, so he hurriedly refused the contract and flew home.

His heart is full of worries about his sculpture-like son, who is indifferent to the environment.

When the car pulled up in front of the house, he found Tony sitting on the freshly mowed lawn with a leather ball next to him and a kitten playing with it on his head.

So, he used the camera he carried in his briefcase to collect materials to take pictures of this scene.

This painting is like a spell that can turn back time and reappear yesterday.

The illustrator's eyes were wide open, and everything he recalled seemed vivid in front of the detective cat's brushstrokes.

He could even vaguely feel the slightly pungent spring smell of the severed grass juice leaves just after the weedwer had been pushed.

It seems that the next second, the cat on the TV screen will squint and call at the camera.

"The ...... on the painting It's really my son's Amy. ”

The illustrator sighed.

Can art achieve the point of showing the unique charm of each animal?

What kind of understanding does it take to be able to draw such a work?

Is this practice or talent?

If it was practice, Jane Arnaud wanted to know the secret of the other party's practice.

If it's talent - don't grow up in a group of cats since childhood, don't ...... It looks like this with a photograph and paper materials.

In a two-dimensional way, it is said that the painter is a cat who has become a cat lady.

Illustrators are convinced.

"Detective cat, detective cat, no wonder you gave yourself this network name, what a little girl like a cat."

IN HER PROFILE ON FITRR, DETECTIVE CAT STATES THAT SHE IS IN HER THIRTIES.

In terms of age and status, Jane Arnold is still entitled to call her a little girl.

"If only I could have such good cat drawing skills......"

That is, the Hans Christian Andersen Award can only be won once per person in a lifetime, otherwise it will be renamed the Jane Arnaud Award. If he engages in animal co-branding with companies like Bubble Mart, Disney, and Uniqlo, it will not be good, even if it is the ability to attract money, he has become the second Andy Warhol.

Jane Arnold even has a level of painting cats that is so smart that it is enough to kill the hearts of countless girls, and it is really a bit violent to be held in the hands of a small painter like Detective Cat.

No matter how good the knife painting is, it is still an unpopular way to draw.

Drawing small animals can also be painted so vividly, Jane Arnaud will be envious.

It should be said that there is no artist in the illustration industry who will not be envious and jealous.

"Why don't you recruit her to your own illustration studio?" The illustrator's heart jumped.

Jean Arnaud, of course, had her own painting studio, but in a different way than in the Willein studio.

Weylin is a little larger, with nearly ten painter employees, similar to the contractor model, publishing illustrations, movie posters, advertising design, and game painting, they rely on Wehrlein's fame and connections to attract contractors, and take on any task.

Wehrlein not only paints himself, but also distributes the painting to his painters, and gives corresponding remuneration or commission.

This is also the most common mode of operation of illustration studios by far.

Jane Arnaud is because he is too special.

He is the best illustrator alive, and he himself is a huge commercial IP and live advertising.

Basically, all the clients who find a studio are the kind of clients who are willing to pay a high contract premium several times in exchange for working with the illustrator himself.

In other words, customers come to him, and they only want him.

As a result, he was the only painter in his studio, and the rest were all service staff who worked for him.

In fact, the employees are doing the work of assistants.

If an illustration studio suddenly has an additional artist, it is big news in the industry.

Such a thought only flashed through Jane Arnold's mind before it was banished from her mind.

Recruit a detective cat in, how does the other party position it - is it an employee? Or a partner?

It's a subordinate employee who works for himself.

Is the detective cat himself willing?

From Jane Arnaud's knowledge, she could get an astronomical amount of money for her "The Little Prince" from the Scholastic Group.

How much salary do you pay to make her happy?

If it's a partner, just because the other party draws a cat well, will it be a little worthless?

He knew very well that the detective cat was still firmly bound to the negative influence of the "Oil Painting" magazine, and it was also a very big trouble.

Let's think again.

The illustrator refocused on his son.

The moment this work appeared on the screen, Tony's expression had already changed.

He stared at the kitten on the painting with nostalgia and reminiscence, and his gray eyes revealed a deep sense that did not belong to an autistic child.

"Amy...... Lineker, Belanov, Maradona...... Play. Tony muttered slowly.

"What is he talking about?" Anya asked curiously.

"It seems to be the name of a football star." Dr. Kim An-kyung, who played football in college, guessed, "I think I'm a very old star." ”

"The stars of the 1986 World Cup, Maradona and Lineker won a Golden Boot and a Golden Ball, while Belanov was called Soviet Lightning, and scored a hat-trick against Belgium. The season Amy came to our house coincided with the World Cup. Television and radio stations across New Zealand are saying these names over and over again. It makes people's ears grind out of calluses. ”

"At that time, I remember that the doctor let Tonido fit in with the outside world, so there was often a sports radio next to it, and the maid accompanied Tony and Amy to play hand-pushed soccer on the lawn." The illustrator said faintly: "So many years have passed. I never thought about it, it turns out that Tony still remembers. ”

How many people still remember what happened when they were four or five years old?

The past 30 years ago is so long ago that even Jane Arnold's mind is blurred, but this middle-aged person with intellectual problems can still remember the story of playing hand-pushed football with cats when he was a child.

Probably

This she-cat named Amy really once brightened up his childhood life, right?

"Playing with balls."

Tony approached the TV screen, reaching out and calling softly.

It's a pity.

No matter how realistic the painting is, there will never be a kitten that actually jumps out of the screen and pushes the ball with him.

Tony reached out to touch the cat's hair, but only to touch a flat TV screen.

Jane Arnold waved her hand lightly.

The sketches on the TV began to scroll one after the other.

In addition to the philosophical view that there is no black and white contrast, it is completely a painting idea carved out of the same mold as Professor Boggs's work.

The changing light and shadow on the TV reflected the faces of everyone in the living room.

Because I have already seen the professor's "Amy", this set of works is very familiar to everyone, and it is very quiet when I appreciate it.

Only Tony muttered words that everyone didn't understand from time to time.

The assistant in charge of broadcasting thought about it.

In fact, so far, if you compare this electronic picture with Professor Boggs, there is no winner or loser between the two paintings.

Detective Cat's work is better than reality, and Boggs is better than idea.

With a more colloquial explanation.

In terms of the expressiveness of the picture, Detective Cat's work is better and more liked by Tony.

But if this is an art competition or a biennale, then it is likely that Professor Boggs will win the prize.
