On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, I went around the studio. From the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, Fang Yi officially started to work in the studio. Liu Hongshuo quickly asked someone to bring a large mirror to the studio, and when the base was ready, the master and apprentice started to draw strokes.
own painting.
Liu Hongshuo had just finished one-fifth of the painting, and Fang Yi had finished painting his first self-portrait. It took Fang Yi nearly five days to directly draw himself standing in front of the easel. Liu Hongshuo watched.
After five minutes, Fang Yi was asked to go back to work. Fang Yi had to shovel the paint off the canvas and paint another one.
Now Fang Yi is looking at his third work in recent days, which means that the paint on the canvas has been shoveled off twice. The entire canvas seemed a bit heavy when he first painted, and the remaining color on the bottom surface
It is quite rich, so Fang Yi had to increase the thickness of the paint, and at the same time think about whether some of the color on the bottom surface should be retained, and then apply a layer of transparent color on top to brighten it!
As soon as the whole work was completed, Fang Yi was very satisfied with his work. Since the side of the painting was relatively small and needed to be painted carefully, Fang Yi used the smallest brush most often, which was not a hard brush but a small brush.
It is a round soft brush. If you look carefully, you can see the soft strokes left by the brush on the canvas.
Standing in front of the easel, he carefully looked at his appearance on the canvas. Fang Yi's paintings of figures now tended to unnaturally appear to be a little higher, which meant that the figures were painted more beautiful or more graceful. More
What's more, I'm painting myself now! The corners of Fang Yi's mouth in the picture are slightly raised, and the two small dimples on his cheeks are a little deeper. The soft lines on his face are combined with thick eyebrows, and a pair of dark eyes are looking straight at Fang Yi.
Own.
He raised his left hand, holding a few paintbrushes between his fingers. The palette was placed on the cart next to him at the bottom right of the picture. The colors on Fang Yi's palette are now different from those painted for the first time.
Now they look like lumps. These paints are like small strips of toothpaste that have been squeezed out. They are arranged clockwise from cold to warm at the edge of the color plate to form a large fan shape. The inner circle of these paints is also a circle of corresponding colors.
Added white mixed paint. The color arrangement on Fang Yi's palette is different from that of the teacher. The master and the apprentice came in reverse. Fang Yi arranged it this way because he used more warm colors, so when he holds the brush in his right hand
It is more convenient to pick colors.
His right hand was placed across his chest, holding a soft brush in his hand. His body blocked a small half of the picture. The exposed half was the face of his girlfriend Mu Jin. His slightly tilted head matched Fang Yi's slightly tilted expression.
The left shoulder is like the girlfriend in the painting leaning on Fang Yi's shoulder.
As soon as Fang Yi finished painting, Liu Hongshuo walked to the student's easel, looked at Fang Yi's painting and commented: "There is progress! Some colors are a little transparent, and there are some textures on the clothes on the hands."
It’s not bad, it’s a little bit interesting!”.
In this painting, Fang Yi did not pursue a completely realistic style like a photo, but focused more on the expression of light and color. He used thicker pigments to create a texture effect in some parts. The colors are very rich, but the main tone is very unified.
"This painting is ready! Let's oil it after it dries." Liu Hongshuo nodded and said, "It's better than I imagined. Why do I ask you to shovel it out and start over again? Every time, you just flatten it instead of scraping the picture.
All colors? Because in the past, some classical painters liked to paint again on the original unsatisfactory canvas. They either asked you to directly paint a layer of white to cover the colors below, or taught you to use these colors. Now it seems that you
Well done, even better than I thought!".
Fang Yi stood honestly beside the teacher, listening to the teacher's explanation to him. Hearing that some painters like to paint on old canvases, he couldn't help but sneered: These people must be the kind of people who work hard in life and are awesome after death.
Characters. If I had been so awesome before I died, I would have asked my apprentice to stretch another canvas! Just like what my teacher did: Fang Yi! I want to paint as big or small as I want, give me a cloth and a color base. Then I thought about it.
I suddenly felt that this poor guy might not have even had an apprentice during his lifetime, and he had to rely entirely on himself.
Liu Hongshuo didn't know that Fang Yi's mind was already full of thoughts. If he knew he couldn't tell, he would have to lie down and send him to the emergency room. In Liu Hongshuo's eyes, his student was listening carefully to his explanation with a smile on his face.
After talking for a while, he concluded: "Go back early today, stay at home to recuperate in the past two days, and don't be embarrassed by the art exam in three days!".
After listening to the teacher's words, Fang Yi said a little unwillingly: "Staying at home for two or three days is not just to rest, but it is boring. I'd better come to the studio!".
Now the hotels and hotels near Shiyi are basically full of people. Thousands of candidates and their parents have suddenly added nearly 10,000 people to the campus out of thin air, making the campus not too big in the first place.
The place was even more crowded. Candidates were busy visiting places, and parents were following their precious sons and daughters to do logistical work.
In terms of stone art, among this group of candidates, Fang Yi may not necessarily be considered the calmest, but among the most laid-back candidates, Fang Yi can definitely get a seat and be ranked higher.
Generally speaking, the only thing that Fang Yi has done so far is registration. When it came to the registration point, Fang Yi handed over the materials directly. The teacher who received the materials saw the name and asked directly: Fang Yi
?Then he glanced at Fang Yi’s face a few times.
The fact that Liu Hongshuo accepted a student and he was a high school student has long been spread in Shiyi. There are also a few Shiyi teachers who have met Fang Yi, but Fang Yi always comes in early and leaves late. He wants to see Fang Yi there.
It's not easy to wander around campus. Generally speaking, there are still not many people who know Fang Yilushan's true face. This is the case in the Academy of Fine Arts, let alone other colleges.
It was probably the first time this teacher saw Fang Yi and he couldn't help but take a second look.
"Okay! But if you can't perform at your best, let's see how I can deal with you." Liu Hongshuo said to Fang Yi. The old man didn't think that he would fail in the student art exam. Now Fang Yi's sketching level only needs to be
There is no problem in painting stone art. But as his own student and his only student now, Liu Hongshuo hopes that the answer sheet Fang Yi will bring out will be a blockbuster! If he hands over an average and mediocre paper, Liu Hongshuo will not be able to understand it.
They are all embarrassed. The old man has a bad temper and a strong sense of face.
Fang Yi replied: "I really can't sit still at home!"
Liu Hongshuo glared at the student and then turned back to his easel. Fang Yi thought that the teacher was acquiescing if he didn't speak, and he was planning to continue to come to the studio for the next two days to have some fun.
After staying in the studio until ten o'clock in the evening, Fang Yi returned home.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw my parents sitting on the sofa. They were changing their shoes and said, "Why are you still up so late?".
"Son! Come here quickly." Yu Qin was very happy to see her son back, and quickly patted the empty sofa next to her to signal Fang Yi to sit down.
"What's going on?" Fang Yi couldn't help but be a little curious, and walked towards the sofa in the living room wearing slippers. When his eyes glanced at his father's face, he found that Fang Guohua didn't seem to be interested, which made him even more surprised.
Yu Qin looked at Fang Yi sitting down with a smile and then opened his mouth and said: "The exam will be in two days, right?".
"Yes! Didn't I tell you before?"
Yu Qin patted her leg: "That's it!"
"What's there to say about this matter? It's so difficult that you can still ask Shi Yi to postpone the test for two days or advance it to tomorrow?" Fang Yi said cheerfully.
"I told your father that we would take you to the exam when the time comes. The two of us will be waiting for you outside the exam room," Yu Qin said.
Fang Yi was a little stupid after hearing this: "How did you think of this! Besides, the students we send for exams are all students from out of town! If you have something to say with your parents, how far am I? I'm only two steps away.
How embarrassing it is for you to go! And you go together! My dad doesn’t go to work?”
"Your dad is also very tall now. Isn't it because of the most important exam in your life if you don't go to work for a day or two? This is a big thing and you can't be careless!" Yu Qin said with a smile.
Fang Yi moved his eyes from his mother to his parents, Fang Guohua, and asked, "Dad! How can my mother sing like this?". I had said before that I had never seen my mother react like this, but why was she so excited when it was time to take the exam?
It was as if I had entered the examination room by myself.
Fang Guohua said slowly: "Your mother came back from selling vegetables today and told a group of people in the community that you were going to take the exam. Others said that we should pay attention to this matter, especially those in the family who had passed the college entrance examination.
She was in a mood to take the exam, and others were giving her away, so she thought of giving it away!".
"Why are you following this trend?" Fang Yi couldn't help rubbing his teeth after hearing this: "You seem to be making this atmosphere very tense for no reason!".
"You kid! How can you not take this matter seriously?" Yu Qin glared at his son and said, "Other people's children are given away but we don't give them away. If people know about it, they think we are not our biological sons!"
.
"Okay! Okay! Let you send it off! But dad, don't go. Stand outside for a few hours, especially when the weather is getting warm and cold now! Mom, if you go, stay in the teacher's studio." Fang Yi listened
When my mother said this, she knew it would be impossible not to give it away, so she simply agreed without even talking to her mother.
Yu Qin smiled and said, "That's it, let your dad drop us off in the morning, and pick us up after the exam!".
The father and son looked at each other, and Fang Guohua nodded: "Well! That's it for now. Okay! Let's go to bed." After that, he stood up from the sofa.
Yu Qin also stood up happily after her wish was fulfilled, and the family of three went back to their respective houses.
