Chapter 031 Papermaking has not been passed down yet?
When the first ray of sunshine in the morning shone on Shicheng once again, the time hand had almost reached seven o'clock. Fang Yi had been up for almost two hours. These two hours had passed a little helplessly, Fang Yi felt in his heart
The little man reminded me over and over again: It’s time to go to the teacher’s studio. There are still many paintings that I haven’t seen or copied! In the end, Fang Yi simply put down the pencil, picked up an English novel and read it to consolidate himself.
in English to get rid of inner temptations.
When the clock on the wall rang softly, Fang Yi immediately dropped the book in his hand, put on his coat and scarf and left his room.
"This kid! Why did you get up so early and only slept a few hours a day?" Yu Qin, wearing pajamas, just left the room and saw her son standing at the door. She patted her mouth and yawned.
Fang Yi opened the door and gently pushed it open, then turned to his mother and said: "I want to go there early. I have been thinking about last night's painting all night! Don't make breakfast for me in the future. I will just go on the way."
Eat some".
"Then I'll save some trouble, your dad and I won't do anything." After hearing what Fang Yi said, Yu Qin turned around and went back to her room, planning to take advantage of this hour to sleep a little longer. The terrible Fang Guohua said
It's like an accessory to my son. If my son doesn't eat breakfast, my share will also fly away.
After leaving the house, I bought breakfast at a breakfast stall not far from the entrance of the community. I held pancakes in one hand and soy milk in the other. I took a sip and walked towards the bus stop. After a while, the bus arrived. As soon as Fang Yi got on the bus, he found that it was early in the morning.
There was really no one in the car. There were only five or six people sitting there. They randomly found a seat and sat down and continued to eat their own breakfast.
When he arrived at the teacher's studio, Fang Yi turned on the switch as usual. After a while, the temperature in the room rose, then he took off his coat and started painting.
As soon as he grabbed the pencil in his hand, Fang Yi lost track of time again until Liu Hongshuo came to the studio.
Well! Liu Hongshuo stood behind Fang Yi without disturbing his students. He watched for more than a minute and couldn't help but nodded. Now Liu Hongshuo himself had to admit that his students really learned too fast.
Zhang Jiexing's sketches have improved a bit.
The form now has a bit of Dürer's rigor, and the lines are more smooth and delicate. The lines drawn by the hand are long and handsome, elegant and straight. The unique sketch style has been roughly formed, borrowing the lines from Dürer's paintings.
Fang Yi's paintings show a different feeling in terms of posture. Even the rough cracks on his hands have a hint of softness under his student's pen, less heavy but more elegant.
Seeing this, Liu Hongshuo couldn't help but look at his student, and after thinking about it for a moment, he shook his head. This student of his was afraid that he had never experienced any setbacks since he was a child. He was born in a wealthy family, and his family's favor made his paintings more beautiful.
It was involuntarily romantic. He was truly enjoying the joy of painting. This idea popped into Liu Hongshuo's mind.
Liu Hongshuo looked at Fang Yi until he put down his pencil.
"Teacher!" Fang Yi turned around and saw Liu Hongshuo coming behind him.
Liu Hongshuo nodded and said: "After the art exam is over, just do some sketching and painting, and I will start teaching you oil painting techniques!" Liu Hongshuo felt that his student's sketching was enough, and he could paint oil paintings. Let alone the method.
Fang Yi is like this. Even now, few students from the Academy of Fine Arts can sketch to Fang Yi's level by the time they graduate.
"Okay!" Fang Yi said, but after thinking for a moment, he asked: "Then can I choose some sketches I like when I have nothing to do?".
"Besides this box of building surfaces, there are two boxes with sketches in them. Whether you want to see them or not, you can find them yourself," Liu Hongshuo said after hearing this.
Looking at the student who nodded, he opened his mouth and asked: "You should pay more attention to your cultural class scores. There will be no problem with the additional art test! Don't pass the art test by then and there will be problems with your cultural scores!".
"Don't worry, the cultural class won't be a big problem!" Fang Yi said confidently. Now it's not CAFA but the stone art and culture score is over 300. He is confident that he can get 223 in English and Chinese.
There is no need to switch to liberal arts. Based on the current level, it would be a piece of cake to get a total score of more than 300.
Liu Hongshuo looked at Fang Yi's confident look and said: "No matter how confident you are, it doesn't count as long as the result has not come out. Guan Yu will still be careless and lose Jingzhou! Don't be too full of words!".
Fang Yi smiled after hearing the teacher's words and said nothing.
"Don't paint for the rest of this morning. Follow me and learn to stretch the canvas. After stretching the canvas, you have to make the base of the first layer! Help me stretch a larger cloth tomorrow, and you will do all this work from now on.
Come and do it." Liu Hongshuo saw that Fang Yi didn't listen to his words at all, nor did he continue to lecture his students, so he changed the topic.
After hearing this, Fang Yi immediately agreed: "No problem!" Isn't it just a matter of covering the picture frame with a layer of cloth and then painting something on it? What's so difficult about this? It's like this kind of work for construction.
The construction site is filled with the lowest level of work!
"Then go over there and get two picture frames." Liu Hongshuo pointed to a corner of the studio filled with shelves of large and small picture frames.
After listening to the teacher's words, Fang Yi walked up to the shelf, pointed at one and said, "Can it be as big as this?"
"It's too big! It's one-third of its size. You're pointing at a 1.5-meter frame." Liu Hongshuo said quickly after looking at it.
Fang Yi found the picture frame that the teacher asked for after a few rummagings with his hands. When he mentioned it in front of the teacher, he heard the teacher say: "Go to the room over there and take out the linen!".
Diligently putting the frame down, Xia Yi walked into the room Liu Hongshuo was talking about and walked out holding the folded brown linens.
"Go get that box over there!"
"Little nail!"
"Go get the base material! There is a glass jar on the top shelf in that room!"
It didn't take Liu Hongshuo a few times to realize the benefits of having a student. He used to do all these things slowly and leisurely by himself, but now there is an errand boy in the studio. As long as he talks, someone will do it immediately! This feeling is not ordinary.
Good, but very good!
After summoning Fang Yi for more than ten times, Liu Hongshuo found that he had nothing else he wanted. All the things he needed were placed on the big table on the side of the studio. This big table was not small! It was as big as a billiard table on the street.
Liu Hongshuo displayed the canvas on the table, put the frame on the canvas and cut the canvas with scissors. While cutting, he said to Fang Yi: "Be careful when cutting the cloth. Generally speaking, I am eight or nine times bigger than the outer frame."
Centimeters, don't look too biased. The linen I use is rain dew linen, which uses the interweaving method of warp and weft to make the threads more compact and detailed, and the entire canvas is dense and even. It is very rare.
There are threads that jump out. If there are threads like this on the canvas, you need to use a razor blade to carefully cut them off...".
Fang Yi stood nearby and carefully watched the teacher Liu Hongshuo's movements. He cut out the canvas. The teacher first simply fixed the four corners of the canvas with thumbtacks on the four corners of the frame facing away from the canvas, and then started to use thumbtacks on the middle line of one side of the frame.
The stapler drives the nails, and after finishing nailing this side, start nailing the opposite side until the center line of the four sides is completely nailed.
"When nailing, you must pay attention to whether the elasticity on several sides is even and whether the canvas is skewed! If so, you must correct it immediately. Don't make do with it. Another thing to note is that you must ensure that the entire canvas is tight and tight.
, If it is too loose, it is difficult to draw. If it is too tight, the mesh of the linen cloth will be enlarged, so that the base material can easily pass through the mesh. The only reason why I did not use the commonly used method in China is that it is the French standard! It is because if the canvas is stretched on the side
It only rotates ninety degrees. Now my method is to staple the canvas behind the back and rotate it two ninety degrees to make it easier to tighten. Also, the staple force is wider than the nail, so it is easier to tighten the canvas!"
Next, Fang Yi saw the teacher wrapping the four corners of the canvas around the four corners of the picture frame and folding them very smoothly and beautifully. Finally, Liu Hongshuo nailed a book on the back of the picture frame every four or five centimeters.
Nail. Now the entire canvas is stretched.
"Now stretch the frame in front of you and show me!".
After listening to the teacher's words, Fang Yi picked up the remaining picture frame and placed it on the cloth. He imitated the teacher's movements and tensed up. When he finished nailing the two opposite center lines, Liu Hongshuo shouted to stop and pick up the picture.
After the frame was erected, it was said that it was too loose, so Fang Yi asked Fang Yi to use canvas pliers to tighten it.
Fang Yi picked up the canvas pliers and nailed it again. This time Liu Hongshuo said it was too tight! Fang Yi had to do it all over again. He repeated the tightening three or four times before Liu Hongshuo nodded. Each time he tightened it,
After Liu Hongshuo tried it on, he asked Fang Yi to feel it for himself, and then compared the stretch with his own. Soon Fang Yi understood how the canvas should be stretched. After the four sides were stretched, the next step was the four corners, which went smoothly.
After the stretch was completed, staples were nailed to the back of the four borders.
"Very good!" Liu Hongshuo tried it and praised it to his students. But then he called Fang Yi again: "Take that glue can." After saying this, he walked toward the studio with his hands behind his back and a figure-footed step.
Go to a door.
Fang Yi obediently took the jar and followed the teacher into the room. When he entered, he saw that the room was too small. It looked, or didn't look like it, it was just a kitchen! Not only was there a matchmaking stove, but there was also a matchmaking stove next to it.
jars, and a pot hanging on the wall.
Could it be that the teacher secretly turned on the stove behind his wife's back when he had nothing to do? Fang Yi couldn't help but maliciously speculate in his heart.
"What are you doing standing still? Put the jar down and bring me the cotton cloth hanging on the wall." Liu Hongshuo said and walked to the stove, took the iron pot off the wall, bent down and opened the valve of the gas tank next to it.
The pot was placed on the stove.
He took the cotton cloth from Fang Yi's hand and folded it into a small square. He put a little water in the iron pot. The square cotton cloth was put into the water. Liu Hongshuo added a little water to the jar Fang Yi took.
Put the towel on the pot, cover the pot and turn on the fire directly.
"The rabbit skin glue should be heated like this! Cook like this for about ten minutes on low heat until the small particles in the jar turn into a frozen state." Liu Hongshuo looked at the flames on the stove and licked the bottom of the pot and explained to Fang Yi: "Now
In China, titanium white powder and zinc white powder plus glue are used as bases, but I don’t really like this kind of stuff, so I’m still used to using rabbit skin glue! I suggest you also use leather-free glue, because these things have been tested by time.
Yes, you can refer to other methods...".
Fang Yi nodded after listening to the teacher's words: "Well! Then I'd better use rabbit skin glue as the base!" Master and apprentice Fang Yi settled on the rabbit skin glue with a light sentence. Liu Hongshuo made dozens of paintings per
Of course Wan didn't think the rabbit skin glue imported from France was expensive. Fang Yi didn't know that rabbit skin glue cost two to three hundred yuan per pound. How much did he think this thing could cost? It's just glue! How much is rabbit skin worth?
Money! If the teacher uses it, he should use it too!
While other students studying oil painting use their own base materials or even directly mix latex with water, and the canvas they use is also a blend of fabrics, etc., which are relatively cheap. Fang Yi is using linen, and the canvas is made of dew linen.
, drawing exercises on a base made of rabbit skin glue.
The master and apprentice had boiled the glue, and Liu Hongshuo tried again by scraping the boiled glue onto the canvas. He scraped it horizontally once and then vertically again. After two times, he used a wooden scraper to scrape the glue.
Scrape off excess glue from the canvas.
"Now the first layer of foundation is ready. Wait for it to dry before applying the second layer of foundation. Before applying the second layer of foundation, be sure to check the first layer of foundation to see if there are any small particles left on it.
If there is any, I'll use a razor to trim it off. I usually do this four to five times. After I've made the base, I'll add one to several layers of color base depending on the situation. I can't say this right now.
, when these foundations are done, you will understand when you look at my color mixing.”
Fang Yi couldn't help but think: It's so troublesome! Are foreigners looking for something to do? Just get a big piece of white paper and start drawing! It's hard to believe that papermaking, one of our four great inventions, had not yet arrived in Europe at that time.
Pass it on?
Fang Yi was complaining that the foreign devils made the oil painting so complicated. It took several days to even make a foundation, and he had to wait for the previous layer to be done before he could do the next layer. He did not expect that at this time, the short boy who was teased by him yesterday would
