The conversation in the car was quite pleasant, but when they arrived at Fang Yi's studio, the two of them had nothing to say. Fang Yi was naturally immersed in his studio, thinking about colors, brushstrokes, and various textures.
Mu Jin was watching TV in the living room with two dogs, a round-headed dog and a flat-headed dog.
The whole state lasted until the afternoon. Mu Jin opened the door of the studio, looked at Fang Yi who was squatting on the ground and looked at the pages of the album and asked: "Can you stop for half an hour and let's chat! I have a lot to say.
I want to talk to you! Don’t you have anything to say to me?”.
Fang Yi raised his head after hearing this, smiled at Mu Jin and asked, "What do you want to talk about?" After saying that, he lowered his head and turned over a picture page. He waved to his girlfriend and said, "Come and take a look.
Look, the master's masterpiece! The printing technology of these foreign devils is really good, much better than the picture albums on the domestic market!"
Mu Jin looked at Fang Yi and couldn't help but sigh and said, "You'd better watch it yourself! I'm going to watch TV." After that, he opened the door and turned towards the living room.
Fang Yi watched Mu Jin's figure disappear at the door, touched his head and said to himself: "We just said we wanted to chat, why didn't we chat again!". Before he finished speaking, he stared at the girl turned over.
I read the picture album carefully.
Staying in the living room, Mu Jin continued to watch TV. From time to time, he turned to the door of Fang Yi's studio and chatted with Fang Yi. Seeing that Fang Yi was completely dealing with himself, he turned back and continued to watch TV. The two of them
This state of affairs continued for two whole days, until Fang Yi sent Mu Jin to the train station. The two of them really started chatting.
"It's been almost two days since we arrived in the studio, and you haven't said ten words to me in total!" Mu Jin looked at Fang Yi and said, "Why don't you take some time to chat with me and listen to what I have to say! My whole heart is with you.
Paint it!".
Fang Yi held the steering wheel steady and smiled at Mu Jin and said: "In these special circumstances these days, I have some new ideas and I have to write them down quickly and experiment! If I hadn't felt so uncomfortable! Wait until I figure it out.
.Next week! When you come back next week, we
Let’s go to the movies together, and I’ll spend two days with you!” At this point, he thought of something else: “If it doesn’t happen next week, I have to go to the capital on Saturday. It’s Teacher Xu Shize’s birthday, too.
I know that this old man is my master or uncle, so it will be impossible if I don’t go!”.
"Your teacher Liu Hongshuo is also going?" Mu Jin asked.
"It's not my birthday. The teacher asked me to visit this uncle or uncle." At this point, Fang Yi smiled and said, "Why do I feel that this is so awkward to say! It's both a senior uncle and an uncle."
, these two old men can’t calm down even at such an old age, and they are causing me problems!”.
Mu Jin had no intention of looking at Fang Yi's smiling face now. He looked at Fang Yi and sighed. Then he asked: "You have to hold an art exhibition again after you come back from the capital. It will be another month. It's difficult for you to have it after New Year's Day."
Free to chat with me?".
"It's not easy if you want to chat. We all have phones now. I'll take the time to call you in the future. You can chat as long as you want," Fang Yi said with a smile. After speaking, he stretched out his hand to take Mu Jin's hand.
He grabbed it and put it to his mouth for a kiss, but he failed. Mu Jin threw him away.
"I'm talking about face-to-face chatting. Isn't that clear on the phone?" Mu Jin looked at Fang Yi and said.
Fang Yi thought for a while: "It won't take so long. The first stop for the art exhibition is the Pearl! Can't we meet by then? It's not the kind of public exhibition hall, a decent art salon. We will meet again then.
There will be a buffet or something, and all the patrons of Lu Qikun and his friends will be there."
"Benefactor?" Mu Jin laughed after hearing this: "Why do I sound like those people who visited the kilns in the old society!".
"This is not what I said, Lu Qikun said it himself! You will know when you go and see it," Fang Yi said with a smile.
Mu Jin became interested after hearing this: "Then I'll go and have a look. It will be a great experience!".
"Okay! I'll pick you up when the time comes," Fang Yi said, nodding.
"Do you want to wear formal clothes?" Mu Jin asked: "Are they like those people watching art exhibitions on TV, holding a bottle of wine and talking softly in suits and ties?".
Fang Yi thought for a moment and said, "It shouldn't be like this! But just dress more formally. I'll go and ask when the time comes, and then I'll tell you."
He successfully changed the topic of his girlfriend. Now the atmosphere in the car was much better. After seeing off Mu Jin at the station, Fang Yi watched Mu Jin disappear at the entrance, immediately jumped in the car and turned back to the studio.
Fang Yi stayed in the studio and immersed himself in painting, but Qu Gu and the others were a little troubled. The three of them were sitting in Zhang Xu's fast food restaurant, scratching their heads and wondering who would watch Fang Yi tomorrow!
Fang Yi's state during this period made the three of them a little worried.
"I'll go over at noon! I'll drive over as soon as the exam is over, go here directly to get something to take to him, and then come back!" Qu Gu said. The three of them will have written exams tomorrow, and they will have all the exams in the morning and afternoon.
Yes. I can miss classes, but can I still miss exams?
At this time, Su Meng happened to come over and clear the table next to her. After listening to Qu Gu's words, she asked: "Fang Yi hasn't finished his research yet?"
Tao Yong said: "Not yet! Fang Yi is in a semi-crazy state now. You didn't see his appearance. He was muttering and looking at the opened pages of the album with bright eyes. He slept for a little more than two hours a day.
Son. We are really a little worried. Mu Jin has been here these two days. Today Mu Jin goes back to school, and tomorrow we have another exam! We had to send Qu Gu to take a look at it at noon!"
"You don't even know you're hungry?" Su Meng asked, looking at the three of them.
Qu Gu shook his head and said: "You really don't know for sure! Even if you do know, it's just one meal a day! His body will definitely not be able to handle this kind of intensity. Who knows how long his semi-crazy state will last!".
"Don't even think about it. I'll change my shift tomorrow to see how crazy Fang Yi is! Just help cook a meal at noon?" Su Meng looked at the three of them and nodded and said with a smile: "That's alright.
!Leave it to me!”.
Now that the fast food restaurant has passed its peak period, there are almost no people around. Su Meng waved to Lu Xiaomin and said: "Xiaomin, help me change my shift! I'm going to see Madman tomorrow!".
"What crazy guy are you looking at?" Lu Xiaomin put down the plate in his hand and looked at Su Meng and said with a smile. "Don't change shifts. Zhang Xu will come over tomorrow. He will have nothing to do here anyway. By then,
Just ask him to pack something and take it with him!".
After listening to Lu Xiaomin's words, Su Meng smiled and joked: "I just want to see if Fang Yi is stupid enough to give away paintings. Then I will go to his basement, take out all his paintings, and then ask him,
Do you want this painting, do you want that painting? If he goes crazy and says he doesn’t want it, I’ll exchange a few paintings for a house! I, Su Meng, will be rich!” After saying this, he burst into laughter.
"Why are you always thinking about the things in Fang Yi's basement?" Wei Jin looked at Su Meng and asked.
Su Meng replied carelessly: "It's not just things. I've been thinking recently, if anyone doesn't deal with me, I'll get him in! Didn't you watch a Japanese movie some time ago? It's about a guy who is obsessed with picking up a girl.
The family is locked up in my own home. When I saw this scene, I told the sisters in our dormitory that the basement door of Fang Yi's house, let alone one person, seemed spacious even if it locked five or six people! It was very suitable for doing these crimes.
activities!”.
"Forbidden room to cultivate desire?" Tao Yong listened to Su Meng's words and immediately said with a smile: "Can't you watch some of Wei Guangzheng's movies?"
"It's important to watch some movies! You men are only allowed to set fires, but us women are not allowed to light lamps?" Su Meng said disdainfully to Tao Yong.
"Yes! Yes! You can go and set fire wherever you want." Tao Yong said with a smile, and then thought for a moment and added: "Don't mention it, Fang Yi's basement is really suitable! The air is still circulating,
Moreover, the sealing is very good. If someone goes in, the whole world will be shaken! It’s very wretched!”
Su Meng also smiled and said: "Is it vulgar? Is it possible that Fang Yi has long-term plans?"
After hearing this, Qu Gu shook his head and said: "Stop talking nonsense, there is someone locked up inside, and you will hear it as soon as you walk into the courtyard!" Regarding his girlfriend's careless behavior, Qu Gu simply ignored it: "Then I will leave this matter to Zhang tomorrow.
Come on, I’ll be there tomorrow night!”
Fang Yi didn't expect that while he was so engaged and happy, several of his friends were worried about his food. Of course, Fang Yi didn't have time to think about such things now.
Looking at the layer of overdying on the canvas that I had just finished in the morning, the color tone seemed a bit normal. I originally thought that the color I wanted would come out at this stage of the painting, but now it seems to be the same as the original painting.
After a comparison, the colors were a bit different. I couldn't help but fold my arms and start thinking.
There are too many possibilities. These paintings have gone through for more than a hundred years. It may be a chemical reaction of the minerals in the paint, or some changes in the ingredients with the air or under ultraviolet light. It may also be due to the original paint formula.
Question, these are all possible.
This is also the reason why the paintings of some painters will become obscure after such a long time. The artists at that time did not just go to the store, slap the money on the table, and take the paint with them as they do now.
A few tin tubes came back! At that time, they were all handicraft workshops. From making oil to mixing paint, everything was done by the workshop itself. There was no place to buy finished paint! Therefore, the colors of the same period would be different in different artist workshops.
.The different ingredients used in the paint will also lead to different effects on the current picture.
After all, Fang Yi had seen the original work, and with the printed color pages, he concluded that the original colors were softer. Although the things he drew were delicate, they were not soft enough. The skin on the original work seemed to be covered with a mask.
It creates a layer of diffusely reflected light and shadow. This kind of reflection is also
It brings out a bit of the translucent texture of the hair on the skin. If it is a problem with the paint, how do these masters control the paint! What methods do they take to ensure that their paintings last forever? All of this is now Fang Yi's
