Metropolis: I Am a Full-Time Professional, Attracting Worldwide Attention - Chapter 127
Chapter 127
Xie Jun handed the painting he found to Chen Xuan: “Mr. Chen, this is the painting.”
He appeared very humble, not what many people thought, as a professor of traditional Chinese painting, he deliberately made public in front of Chen Xuan.
He is just a professor at the Xi’an Academy of Fine Arts, and the standard of Chinese painting is indeed not low.
But throughout Daxia, at the level of Chinese painting, he was better than him. Although not very much, there are still some.
He is at most a master of Chinese painting, but above the master, there is still a master Danqing!
What is a master?
The paintings made are endowed with soul, and they are self-contained and do not stick to the so-called technique.
Looking at mountains is not mountains, and looking at water is not water.
The essay outlines, what I think in my mind, is all displayed in this line, or in a small space.
At this level, that is the real entrance!
Although I haven’t seen Chen Xuan painting Chinese paintings, from his calligraphy yesterday and today’s sketches, it can be seen that Chen Xuan must have a good level of Chinese painting.
Guiding yourself is absolutely sufficient.
Chen Xuan looked at it for a while and said, “There is nothing wrong with the painting. Your troubles should be recent. This is a problem that arises after the creation has reached a certain bottleneck.”
“Right.” Xie Jun nodded: “It’s the most recent problem, every time I don’t know where to write.”
Chen Xuan said: “In this way, you can simply draw it and I will take a look.”
Xie Jun was a little embarrassed: “Will you delay Teacher Chen’s lecture?”
“It happens that I also want to talk about Chinese painting. I think your level is not low, and it happens to be borrowing your works. I will tell them.”
“Thank you Teacher Chen.” Jie Jun was a little excited.
Tao Yuan quickly got up: “I’ll study ink.”
Yu Qian said peacefully: “I’m preparing paint.”
Lu Qingshan: “Teacher Chen, let’s paint here, this table is big.”
The three old men prepared familiarly.
Although they are calligraphers, they also know many painters.
Many painters will ask them to mention words after they finish painting.
Everyone looked at the three old men who were busy before and after, and they secretly smacked their tongues.
It was Chen Ge that allowed the presidents of the two calligraphy associations to be so hands-on.
The drawing paper, paint, and paintbrush are all ready.
Chen Xuan walked down and said, “Come on, draw anything.”
Xie Jun picked up the pen, pondered a little, and then finished the pen.
He used gouache, lightly stained with paint, and started a few random strokes, and a mountain leaped onto the paper.
A few more strokes followed, and the ancient trees fell on the mountain overlapping near and far.
Chen Xuan nodded slightly from the side. This person has a solid foundation and has a good grasp of the shade of ink.
The shape and beauty of the mountains and trees are very good.
His standard of Chinese painting has reached a very high level.
“Ms. Chen.” Jie Jun put down the pen, stepped back, and waited for Chen Xuan’s advice.
In the live broadcast room, Wang Tao said: “This seems to be Professor Jiejun from Xi’an Academy of Fine Arts. I have read reports about him, but I didn’t expect him to listen to Chen Xuan’s class today.”
Ma Jingyao said: “As far as I know, many people came to the Eight Great Academy of Fine Arts last night, and they attach great importance to Chen Xuan’s class.”
“Ms. Jiejun’s painting is really good. The mountains and trees are pleasing to the eye.”
“Although I don’t understand Chinese painting very well, I can see that the paintings of Teacher Jiejun are very good.”A few people commented from the perspective of a layman.
Although they are laymen, their aesthetics is the aesthetics of the general public.
Students and netizens think so too.
“The first time I found out, I can also appreciate art.”
“If art is such a beautiful thing, I don’t think no one will deliberately antagonize it?”
“The most annoying thing is those stupid things that I can’t even understand with the clearly written paintings. I have to claim that they are works of art. I think those people are insulting my IQ and aesthetics!”
Chen Xuan saw it almost, and said, “I know where the problem is, but it’s not easy to solve it.”
Xie Jun asked hurriedly, “Ms. Chen, what is the problem with me?”
Because of this incident, he has been very impatient recently. He has also consulted some figures of the master of Chinese painting, but after seeing it, he said a word.
“You have to realize it by yourself”. ”
Just these four words.
But the point is, he thinks this is too perfunctory and too panacea.
He looked at Chen Xuan expectantly at this moment, hoping that Chen Xuan could give a different suggestion.
“You are too striving for perfection.” Chen Xuan held a paintbrush that hadn’t fallen into the water, and pointed to the mountains and trees he painted: “How is this painting? It’s actually very good, but you want me to find something wrong.” , I can find it for you too.”
“But does it mean that there are flaws? It’s definitely not the case.”
“Your skill level has reached the pinnacle, regardless of whether it is a character or a scenery, landscape or ink, you can paint, and you can paint very well.”
“At your point, it is very difficult and difficult to make further progress in skills, and there is no need for it.”
“What you lack is mind and god!”
“Intention and God?” Jie Jun asked, “Teacher Chen, please advise.”
“I can’t talk about advice.” Chen Xuan put his hand: “Whether it is calligraphy or traditional Chinese painting, what you pay attention to is Xingyi Shen. You have done the best in form and achieved the ultimate. The meaning is also not bad. Okay, but there is still a lot of room for improvement. As for Shen Yun, you are a bit far behind.”
Chen Xuan couldn’t hide his words. He could see that the Jiejun was sincerely asking for advice. If it is to say it selectively for the sake of face, it would be bad for him, so it is better not to say it.
“Ms. Chen, how do I study this one?” Jie Jun felt a sudden realization.
But after enlightenment, he got into trouble again.
I found the problem, how can I solve it?
He was indeed too persistent in his pursuit of painting skills, and even many master-level painters praised him. In terms of painting skills, he can rank among the top three in the entire Chinese Painting Association.
It can be said that he can get to this point entirely by virtue of his painting skills.
In the traditional Chinese painting circle, this can be regarded as a relatively different kind of existence.
Chen Xuan didn’t answer right away. The three things, Xingyishen, cannot be explained in a few words.
He swept across the classroom slowly, and when he glanced across the window, he suddenly had an idea.
He walked toward the window, everyone’s eyes followed, wondering what he was going to do.
Chen Xuan stood still in front of the window and pushed the window open.
The originally quiet classroom was suddenly filled with the sounds of birds and insects.
Under this teaching building, there is a small forest next to it, and there is an artificial lake in the distance.
Chen Xuan turned back to the table again, looked at the trees and mountains on the painting, and said: “People, scenery, animals, whatever you paint, you must draw its charm. If you don’t know how to paint, just observe more. If you want to paint a bird, you can observe the bird’s life habits. If you want to paint a person, you can figure out the emotion and mood of the person. Create with emotion and give soul to the characters and animals you create.”
Xie Jun hesitated: “This…Is this really useful?”
He has heard many masters and even master-level painters talk about this way of painting.
He also tried to observe animals in the past, such as family cats and dogs.
But after observing for a while and then painting, he still felt that there was no difference.
It is not because of short-term observation that the paintings I have created have souls.
He felt that it was too difficult to paint a painting with charm.
It’s as difficult as climbing!
“Uh… I suddenly thought of the days when the teacher took us to watch dogs every day when I was learning to paint.”
“It’s good to watch dogs, we watch shrimps every day!”
“Your teacher must like Qi Baishi.”
“Does this method really work?”
“It should be useful. After all, it is the experience left by the ancestors. Although I have not achieved much, I believe in the ancestors.”
“Will it be a puzzled look for Professor Mao Jie?”
“Professor Xie took the route of technical flow. In the words of our teacher, Professor Xie’s paintings have everything except souls. They are the first person under the master-level Danqing!”
“I’m going to hang on? Then he still asks Brother Chen? Is it possible that Brother Chen has a higher level of Chinese painting than him? Isn’t that the master of Chinese painting?”
“Uh… it seems that there is no problem with this understanding, but Chen’s level is really good, you still have to talk about the work, after all, the difference between sketch and traditional Chinese painting is quite big.”
The big guys from every art academy are watching, let alone a group of professional students.
While watching them, they will also popularize science to a group of people who don’t understand.
Xie Jun’s words made Chen Xuan a little confused about how to answer.
He suspects that the Jiejun may have tried this approach, but it has not achieved any results.
But there is no other way. For art disciplines like Chinese painting and calligraphy, self-improvement is more difficult.
Not to mention that it is a further improvement on the skills, which is even more difficult.
The method Chen Xuan said is definitely useful, but it will not be effective in a short while.
He thought for a while, and said, “That’s what I did. As for the effect… I will draw a picture and you will see it.”
Just say not to practice the fake hand style, and the Jiejun can pull the lower face to ask himself in front of so many people, Chen Xuan also has to be careful.
Upon hearing this, Xie Jun stepped aside. He knew that Chen Xuan was planning to use the work to make him understand a little bit deeper.
The sense of expectation in his heart is simply overwhelming.
Chen Xuan can speak with his works, only to explain that Chen Xuan’s level of Chinese painting has reached the point of a master!
He can paint Xingyi Shen, and he can give a painting the soul!
Jiang Chen and others naturally analyzed it, and each of them looked a little agitated, and they wanted to rush to study at close range.
But in the end they resisted this urge and took out their phones one by one to read them.
Teachers from major foreign art academies study and study more oil painting. Naturally, they also have an understanding of Daxia’s Chinese painting, but their understanding is limited.
However, in the context of the painting profession, they know better than ordinary people how difficult a Chinese painting is.
Although they can’t paint, art knows no borders.
They can clearly feel the emotion that the painter wants to express through a painting.
Chen Xuan uncovered the drawing paper just now, put it aside, grabbed a brush, and dipped it lightly in ink.
When preparing, he was also thinking about what to paint.
Suddenly, the sound of a bird’s voice came from outside the window, and a smile appeared at the corner of Chen Xuan’s mouth.
I saw him start to draw and drop, just two or three strokes, it was the outline of a bird.
Obviously it was so random, but within ten seconds, he drew a pasqueflower.
After a few more pens, it was another bird.
Within a few minutes, there were already five birds on the blank drawing paper.
These five birds have different shapes, some with their heads down to comb their feathers, those with their wings gazing at the sky, and some with their wings spread out to fly.
And in terms of details, Chen Xuan is also very well controlled. Although Chinese painting pays attention to the environment, the details must also be handled in place.These birds can almost clearly see the feathers on their wings, as well as that little gaze.
“¨” Huh~” Jie Jun said lightly, he was the closest, and he was clearer than anyone else.
There are only these five birds on the drawing paper. The average person draws it and looks very empty. However, in Chen Xuan’s pen, these five birds do not have a sense of lifelessness at all, but give him a vivid feeling of different shapes.
Even if there are no branches or mountain peaks.
After painting the bird, Chen Xuan took the paintbrush and dipped in ink to continue painting.
Langhao took his pen to draw lines of ink and wash.
He writes very fast, almost no need to think, the brush is in his hand, like the most precise instrument, every stroke is in place.
Whether it is the color depth, the size ratio, or the overall composition, it is just right.
It wasn’t until Chen Xuan finished painting the tree that the Jiejun realized something that surprised him later.
“Ink and wash painting!” Jie Jun inhaled gently: “This painting technique is terrible. The whole process is ink and wash, without any extra colors, but it can draw such a complex painting with such a clear and distinct layering. ”
“Don’t talk about mind and charm, just with this metaphysical painting skill, this teacher Chen can definitely be called a great honor!”
Xie Jun’s heart was very shocked.
Among Chinese paintings, there are ink and blue paintings.
The latter can be continuously applied with other pigments for matching, while the former has only ink as a color from beginning to end.
If you want to reflect the sense of hierarchy, the changes and shadows in distance and form, you can only achieve its goal by adjusting the intensity of the ink when painting.
The requirements for a painter are quite high.
Nowadays, very few people (Wang Zhao’s) would choose ink painting because it is too difficult.
Although it is difficult to color blue and green paintings, ink and wash are more difficult in comparison.
Chen Xuan is still painting. His paintings are very simple, just a few birds, a forest, and a flower garden nearby.
The flowers and plants are all ink and wash, and the gradation of the flowers is reflected through the intensity of the ink.
“What kind of evil is Brother Chen?”
“My eyes got the ultimate enjoyment!”
“True visual feast!”
“Can you paint this effect without using watercolor?”
It is the first time that many people have seen the process of ink painting. They do not use watercolor, but use pure ink to create an excellent painting on a piece of clean white paper.
“Alright.” Chen Xuan smiled slightly and put down the paintbrush.
Everyone was immersed in this Chinese painting made entirely of ink, and Chen Xuan whistled outside the window.
As an animal trainer, he can imitate some simple sounds of animals.
When the whistle sounded, several birds flew in from outside.
They passed through the window and flew in towards the classroom.
Then, under the shocking gaze of everyone, a pasqueflower flew towards the drawing paper.
The pasqueflower stepped on the drawing paper, with its pointed beak gently touching the bird on the drawing.
At the same time, a few butterflies also flew from outside, and the butterflies flew around in the classroom. In the end, they seemed to be attracted by the painting and flew toward the scroll.
Then it was just like this pasqueflower, falling on the drawing paper.
Even without bias, the place happens to be a flowerbed on the drawing paper.
Butterflies and birds are attracted by an ink painting.
This scene greatly affected everyone in the classroom, as well as hundreds of millions of netizens at home and abroad.
Ink peony, attract bees and butterflies, and birds courtship!
This scene that only happened in a costume TV series was actually brought into the real world. It was so clear that it really couldn’t really be staged in front of them. .
