After returning to his residence and standing in front of his easel, Fang Yi looked at the canvas carefully again, thinking about whose work he should copy. This time Fang Yi did not spend too much time, and quickly jumped out of his mind.
a name.
With the object of imitation, Fang Yi directly laid out the paint, then picked up the brush and began to paint on the canvas, avoiding the characters at that time that he didn't know much about and some famous buildings and other things.
Fang Yi planned to use a large piece of canvas to represent the scenery of Tianyuan, and the character he chose was a woman bathing by the river.
Since Fang Yi didn't get much paint, he couldn't support himself to complete a large work. Even the current canvas was not satisfied. He made a rough estimate that he could only paint something sixty centimeters square at most. Considering some
Due to unpredictable factors, Fang Yi set the size of the work at 60x45. Even if there is enough paint, Fang Yi’s current examination box at home cannot accommodate a painting that is too large, and the conditions around him also limit Fang Yi’s ability to complete a large-scale imitation.
do.
More than four hours later, Fang Yi put down the paintbrush in his hand, wiping his hands while looking at the work in front of him. On some parts of the work, Fang Yi had already applied a thin layer of varnish, and now he was imitating the painting process.
More than half of it was done. Putting down the brush in his hand, Fang Yi's mind jumped out: Pissarro, the similarity is 98%! And Fang Yi knew where this was missing, and what happened next tonight was
It can't be done, no matter what, I have to wait for the paint on the canvas to dry.
In the next two or three days, when Fang Yi got up in the morning, the first thing he did was to go directly to the studio and touch the canvas. Although it was not completely dry, it had met Fang Yi's requirements. He took a sharp
Using a razor blade, Fang Yi cut the painting from the canvas, leaving some edges of the cloth, and then cut the painting
The cloth was fixed to a hard board with staples, and then put directly into the oven for twenty minutes each time, starting from five degrees and continuously increasing the temperature. After two hours of continuous testing, some of the brushstrokes on the canvas were thicker.
Only at the places where Fang Yi wanted was found, some small cracks as fine as hair.
Fang Yi took the canvas off the board and once again cut off the edges of the canvas until it reached the edge of the paint. Fang Yi held the final size of the canvas in his hands and placed it on the table. He began to rub on the area where the varnish had just been applied.
In order to show that the work had been restored, Fang Yi did not wipe off all the varnish, but left some slight spots that looked like it had not been wiped clean, and the paint was 'accidentally' in some places.
's been hurt.
After doing all this, Fang Yi once again spread varnish on the canvas. The varnish this time was produced around 1920.
After doing this repeatedly, Fang Yi applied almost three layers of varnish. The fourth time he used modern varnish. It looked like a complete imitation of the painting. Ninety-nine percent of it in his mind was very good.
This allowed Fang Yi to satisfy the darkness in his heart.
After admiring his imitation, Fang Yi reached out and took out a cigarette, put it gently to his lips, opened the balcony door and walked out.
Before you know it, another day has passed, and now it's time for the lights to come on. The bright lights light up the romantic city of Paris.
After taking a puff of cigarette, Fang Yi lay on the railing of the balcony. He blew out a cloud of smoke from his mouth and nostrils. He took a breath of cold air and looked down at the crowd on the street below.
From this angle, Fang Yi found the people on the street very interesting. Many of them had their necks shrunk and were dressed like sticks wrapped in bare clothes.
After admiring these sticks for a while, Fang Yi put out the cigarette butt in his hand. It was not a good thing to go outside to the balcony in this weather. Fang Yi was so cold that his nose was almost runny. After sniffing, Fang Yi turned around.
Walking towards the house, he took out his mobile phone and dialed his girlfriend's number.
"Hey!" As soon as the phone call came through, Fang Yi said hello to Beronica on the other end.
"What are you doing?" Beronica said to Fang Yi.
"I just finished painting. I just stood on the balcony for a while to wake up my head." After Fang Yi finished speaking, he asked on the phone: "What time is your flight tomorrow? I will pick you up at the airport!".
Beronica laughed and replied: "I can't go back tomorrow, I have to stay for two days! Your life is a bit messy! Have you not gone to class in the past few days?".
"There haven't been any classes that I like for a while, so I've been staying at home!" Fang Yi heard Bellonica's voice and said, "It's a waste of time anyway!".
"What about the upcoming exam?" Beronica asked Fang Yi.
Fang Yi said without hesitation: "What should I do? If I'm lucky, I can pass the modern art test if they take less modern art exams. If I'm not lucky, it's hard to say!".
"You can go out and have fun with your friends. You've been sitting alone at home these past few days and do some more activities," Beronica said to Fang Yi on the other end of the phone.
Fang Yi laughed after hearing this: "I don't think Li Yuncong has much time these days. He is busy taking one of the girls he met at the party on a river cruise or something!".
The rest of the time got into the usual routine between lovers, talking about lovesickness and the like. After chatting for almost half an hour, the two of them hung up the phone.
Not ten minutes after sitting back in his studio, Fang Yi's phone rang again. Fang Yi picked up the phone and looked at a number he didn't recognize.
"Hello! This is Fang Yi, who are you!" Fang Yi opened his mouth and asked as soon as the call came through.
"It's me!" A woman's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Who is it?" Fang Yi asked again. He really couldn't tell which woman it was. He could count all the women he knew, but this voice was obviously not among them.
"Ossis!" A woman's slightly angry voice came from the other end of the phone.
As soon as he heard the name, Fang Yi remembered it. It turned out to be the girl with pink foundation. As soon as the voice became calmer, Fang Yi couldn't hear it for a while: "Ossis! I remembered it! What do you want from me?
Huh? My social circle is very small, but there are no parties I can bring you to!".
"I'm not interested in attending any party with you. I called because I remembered that I forgot something in your car. Let me tell you before your girlfriend comes back." Oseis opened his mouth to Fang Yi and said:
"But, your attitude is very bad, and I can't remember what it is for a moment! You can find it yourself!" After saying that, he hung up the phone.
Listening to the blind beeping tone on the phone, Fang Yi glanced at the phone and asked, "What did you put on my car?".
After Fang Yi finished speaking, he stood up from his chair, put the phone in his pocket and walked downstairs to where he parked his car.
When he got to the car, he turned on the lights in the car. Fang Yi carefully started to search in the car. It was easy to find things, and it didn't take Fang Yi two minutes to find them.
"What a crazy bitch!" Fang Yi said. Following Fang Yi's line of sight, there was a ball of black underwear stuffed in the gap near the door of the passenger seat, and it was also the lower body.
Fang Yi found a piece of paper from the car, rolled it into a roll, pulled the ball out of the gap, and then used the paper roll to pick up the edge and walked towards the trash can not far away. Picking up the so-called
Xiao Nenei walked to the trash can, and Fang Yi threw it in together with the paper roll in his hand. Then he wiped his hands on his body.
"Pfft!" came a laugh.
Fang Yi looked up and saw Guan Fangfei standing a few steps away from him. There was another Chinese girl standing next to him. The two of them were looking at Fang Yi smiling happily.
"Is it so funny?" Fang Yi clapped his hands and said, looking at the two of them.
"After all, you are an artist. Beronika has only been away for a few days, and another woman's underwear appeared in the car! You are really romantic." Guan Fangfei looked at Fang Yi and said, "Don't make excuses to say it was Bei
Ronika! If I want to keep your secret, should I pay me some hush money?" After saying that, he stretched out two fingers and rubbed them together, making a gesture of counting money!
Then he said to Fang Yi: "You are really lucky. Not only did you find a girlfriend when you arrived in Paris, but you also managed to get your girlfriend to wear a woman's underwear in the car just a few days after leaving. It's so shameless!".
"How do you know I'm making excuses?" Fang Yi looked at Guan Fangfei and asked. The expression on the woman's face made Fang Yi feel a little uncomfortable. She looked at him as if he was a sex maniac. After that,
He took out his mobile phone and made a call, telling Beronica about this nonsense.
The entire conversation between Fang Yi and Beronica left Guan Fangfei stunned. Guan Fangfei thought about this incident, and Fang Yi's standard approach would have been not to tell his girlfriend and hide it. But Beroni
When Ka heard this, he wanted to question him no matter what, and then yelled on the phone and so on.
But now it seems that Fang Yi's phone call was as simple as telling a joke to his girlfriend!
"You're really good!" Guan Fangfei looked at Fang Yi and put away the phone and said, "You two seem to be out of this world! It's easy to talk on the phone and easy to listen to on the phone!".
"I haven't done anything, so why don't I dare to tell Beronica?" Fang Yi looked at Guan Fangfei and asked, "A rather weird female lunatic put it in the car on purpose."
"You didn't say it because you did it! This lunatic has a good figure and can wear such small things," Guan Fangfei said with a smile.
"If I really did something, I will tell Beronica if she asks!" Fang Yi nodded to the two women and stood up to go home.
"Then you can also say it?" Guan Fangfei didn't believe it and said to Fang Yi with her lips curled up.
Fang Yi opened his mouth and said: "I don't want to tell lies to cover up anything, because it requires more lies to maintain, and when I wait for Beronica to ask again, what if I forget the previous lies! Then what?
Why don't you just tell me!" After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the door.
"You and Bellonica are quite weird too!" Guan Fangfei said to Fang Yi's back. (To be continued...)
