Chapter 25: Light and Shadow

"Ah! Why are you giving me such a difficult problem!!!"

On weekend mornings, Shen Jie did not sleep in as usual, but got up early and started drawing the punishment homework assigned to him by Luo Huan.

Originally there was another day of comic exhibition today, but Shen Jie didn't say anything about going there today. Instead, he just studied Luo Huan's paintings at home.

Although it was just a sketch that Luo Huan spent two hours drawing, it was still out of reach for Shen Jie now.

To put it simply, Shen Jie could follow Luo Huan's steps to almost reproduce the entire painting. But why he did this is not clear.

For example, there are dark and gray surfaces in the highlight position. It is obvious that the light is shining directly, but there are still places that Shen Jie can't figure out at all.

For example, according to the light, a place should be on the dark side, but Luo Huan painted high light on it. Shen Jie also tried to paint according to his own ideas, changing the place where Luo Huan painted high light to dark side.

The result is obvious. The finished product drawn by Shen Jie can no longer be seen with the eyes, and it has directly become the level of drawing with feet.

Just when Shen Jie had a headache, the doorbell rang.

"Who?"

After saying something angrily, Shen Jie also ran over and opened the door.

Because the Comic Exhibition lasted two days, Luo Huan was following Tang Xiao to the Comic Exhibition, and Shen Jie was the only one left at home.

If this were not the case, Shen Jie would not open the door to someone who disturbed his thinking.

"why you?"

When I opened the door, I saw that it was Li Ruiyan, an old acquaintance.

"Why can't it be me? I've brought you good things, but you still won't let me in."

Li Ruiyan blinked and signaled Shen Jie to let him in quickly.

"You don't want to sleep so early in the morning."

Shen Jie said and let Li Ruiyan enter the room.

"Not everyone is like you, but I am very diligent. I get up at seven in the morning to practice piano, unlike some people who are still in pajamas at nine o'clock."

As Li Ruiyan spoke, his eyes kept glancing at the pajamas Shen Jie was wearing. Although he didn't name anyone, it was actually not much different from naming him.

"Who said that! I got up early to draw, but I just didn't have time to change clothes!"

When Li Ruiyan said this, Shen Jie's competitive spirit immediately rose and he retorted directly.

"Okay, okay, you're awesome. No, this is the official version of the arrangement. You can find a recording studio to record it later."

As Li Ruiyan spoke, he directly stuffed another USB flash drive into Shen Jie's hand.

As for why, it is naturally because the USB flash drive that Shen Jie brought last time has not been returned until now.

Holding the USB flash drive of his cell phone tightly, Shen Jie's toes almost dug out of the three bedrooms and two living rooms.

"Wait a minute, I forgot to give you the USB flash drive before. I'll take it with you."

Shen Jie said and ran back into the room.

Li Ruiyan only remembered the USB flash drive thing last time when he saw Shen Jie like this.

"found it!"

After entering his room, he rummaged through the messy desk that had been painted by Shen Jie for a long time and finally found the USB flash drive.

"Why did you come in!"

After turning around and seeing Li Ruiyan entering his room, Shen Jie felt like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

Because my room is in its messiest stage at this time, the painting tools on the table are scattered here and there. There are also a lot of draft papers on the ground. The quilt on the bed is still the same as when I got up.

In Shen Jie's eyes, this kind of mess should never be shown to outsiders.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, I didn't expect that your room would be so messy."

As the saying goes, whatever you fear will come to you, Li Ruiyan grasped the essence of the matter at a glance.

"Don't blame me, wasn't your room the same last time I went to your house?"

Shen Jie retorted. However, this rebuttal was a bit weak. Although Li Ruiyan's room was also quite messy, it was still somewhat tidy, unlike his desk, which had become like this.

"Yes, yes, everything you said is right. So what are you drawing?"

Li Ruiyan was still very curious about Shen Jie's daily life. So he did not continue to talk about it but focused on painting.

Shen Jie's painting skills are still very famous in the class. He is the teacher's designated candidate for blackboard papers and handwritten papers. As for his art class, he is killing everyone, so Li Ruiyan, who has also practiced piano since childhood, is particularly curious.

How did Shen Jie practice painting?

"No, this is it."

Shen Jie gave up his desk to Li Ruiyan.

Li Ruiyan naturally saw the two sketches clearly.

"This is what I drew, and this is what my mother drew. But there is something I can't understand."

"It's these places that are dark and light? Isn't that the reason for the light?"

After Li Ruiyan read it, he directly stated the core of the sketch.

"It's because of the light that I have a headache. Look at the light coming from here. Logically speaking, the light cannot reach here directly, so it should be darker here. But the place my mother painted is bright."

Shen Jie tried his best to analyze Li Ruiyan in the simplest terms.

"Could it be that Auntie drew it wrong?"

Li Ruiyan, who didn't know how to draw, was tense for a long time, and finally stumblingly expressed his guess.

"How is that possible? Look at this, I changed that place to be dark, and the effect is so bad that I can't bear to look directly at it."

Shen Jie picked up the scrapped painting from the floor and showed it to Li Ruiyan.

"Do you think there will be light from multiple directions, such as indoor light or something like that?"

Li Ruiyan said after reading it.

"No, light from multiple directions wouldn't look like this. Oh, now that I think about it, it actually looks like this!"

Shen Jie suddenly thought of something.

"what?"

Li Ruiyan, an outsider, had no idea what Shen Jie was thinking.

"It's reflective! Just like you are in a classroom, if you sit at the edge of the first row, although you are closer to the blackboard than the last row, you still can't see the blackboard very clearly. The reason is the reflection of light

!”

Shen Jie tried his best to explain in words that Li Ruiyan could understand.

Before, he had been thinking about how the light hits the characters, ignoring the impact of the surrounding environment on the light.

Yes, light will be reflected, which is why there are some things in Luo Huan's paintings that cannot be explained based on the angle of direct light.

"Oh, you said this, when I was practicing the piano, the piano was very bright under the lamp."

Li Ruiyan roughly understood what Shen Jie meant.

"That's right, that's it. It's great that you came! You go first and wait until I finish painting!"

After understanding this, Shen Jie couldn't care less about Li Ruiyan.

Sit directly on the chair and prepare to start a new round of copying.

But this time, Shen Jie was more comfortable with this painting. Unlike before, he had to follow Luo Huan's painting step by step.
