Chapter 482: Annunciation Picture of New Years Eve
Zhen Chun was not interested in staying. After leaving Qiao's house, she went directly back to Nanjiang's home. Her social circle was also very wide, and she also had many classmates in Nanjiang. Xu Chunliang gave her three rules: she was not allowed to drink, she was not allowed to go to bars, and Zhen Chun was not allowed to stay overnight.
They all agreed, and she is now quite convinced of this little cousin.
In the end, only Xu Chunliang, Mei Ruxue and Ye Qingya went to the tea house.
Ye Qingya has become accustomed to this kind of life without her husband. She told Xu Chunliang that her grandfather often mentioned him and asked him to have time to discuss Wuqinxi.
Xu Chunliang smiled and promised that he would definitely pay a visit when he goes to the capital next month.
##
Xu Ying's teahouse was closed until the seventh day of the first lunar month. The small courtyard in front of the teahouse was even more exquisitely arranged, with a cluster of goose-yellow wintersweet blooming in full bloom.
Seeing Mei Ruxue's car, Xu Ying came out of the teahouse to greet her. She and Mei Ruxue had had a brief encounter in the past, when she was making Japanese food at Dongzhou Huajian, but at that time Mei Ruxue was just going to
Xu Chunliang was sent to the door, and the two of them didn't have time to get to know each other.
Xu Chunliang said: "Sister Xu, have Professor Pan and the others arrived?"
Xu Ying smiled and said: "Here we are, here we are." She invited a few people into the teahouse.
Pan Chengfeng and Luo Xiyun heard the commotion and came out. Pan Chengfeng went straight to Ye Qingya and said with a smile: "Miss Ye, I have admired you for a long time. I am honored to meet you." Both of them are in the field of calligraphy and painting.
Celebrities who are both members of the Calligraphers Association and the Artists Association have also heard of each other's names.
However, Ye Qingya had specially studied Pan Chengfeng's works. Pan Chengfeng heard that he was going to meet Ye Qingya, so he temporarily searched for Ye Qingya's works and got a preliminary impression of her.
There was another person in the teahouse, Lu Xiangnan, Pan Chengfeng's old classmate.
Xu Chunliang once heard Pan Chengfeng mention him. According to Pan Chengfeng's description, this Lu Xiangnan was a legendary figure who ran around the world, like a dragon that never saw its end.
Lu Xiangnan is thirty-five years old, tall, with dark complexion, clear facial contours, somewhat Westernized appearance, and fluffy and curly hair. According to him, he is born this way.
Mei Ruxue paid special attention to Lu Xiangnan. The last time he went to the farmhouse for dinner, He Shouren mentioned Lu Xiangnan's name. At that time, He Tiantian happened to bring food in and accidentally smashed the plate.
When Mei Ruxue helped clean up, she paid special attention to He Tiantian's expression. He Tiantian was panicked, probably because he lost his composure because of Lu Xiangnan's name.
Mei Ruxue specifically mentioned it to Xu Chunliang. Although she had some doubts, Xiao Sinan's surname was Jiang, and the surname did not match.
Pan Chengfeng introduced to everyone: "My old classmate Lu Xiangnan, a famous adventurer, photographer, and writer."
Lu Xiangnan smiled and said, "Don't be rude to me. Apart from not having a family yet, I can't stand up to anything else."
Everyone laughed, and Xu Chunliang shook hands with Lu Xiangnan: "Brother Lu, I've heard of you."
Lu Xiangnan said: "Chengfeng just told me that Mr. He is our teacher."
Xu Ying introduced Mei Ruxue: "This is Mei Ruxue, the mayor of Hushan Town."
Mei Ruxue smiled and said: "It's old time, I have been transferred to Dongzhou High-tech Zone to work."
Lu Xiangnan said: "Nice to meet you, nice to meet you!"
Mei Ruxue said: "Mr. Lu is a student of Teacher He, so he must be very familiar with He Tiantian."
Lu Xiangnan was startled for a moment, then immediately smiled and said, "That's natural."
Mei Ruxue said: "We are good friends."
Lu Xiangnan smiled and said, "Everyone is one of our own."
Mei Ruxue introduced Ye Qingya to everyone again.
Xu Ying said: "We invite you all here today mainly for a New Year's gathering. Everyone will do their best, dance and write, and talk about everything."
Luo Xiyun said: "Let me first declare that I have no skills. I am responsible for burning charcoal and making tea."
Xu Ying smiled and said: "Come to my teahouse, how can I let you do it?"
Lu Xiangnan said: "Writing and writing are not my strong point. I basically use swords and guns outside. If I take pictures and cook, I can do it."
Xu Ying said: "Master Pan, with so many friends gathered together, shouldn't you use your ink to present a masterpiece?"
Pan Chengfeng said: "Then I am disrespectful." He said to Ye Qingya: "Miss Ye, how about we collaborate on a painting?"
Ye Qingya smiled and said, "That's my honor."
Xu Ying had already prepared the painting table and the four treasures of the study. Pan Chengfeng asked Ye Qingya to come first and collaborate on the painting. Generally speaking, it is easier for the person who paints first. Pan Chengfeng showed a humble and gentlemanly style.
Ye Qingya picked up the sheep's hair and considered it for a moment, then quickly drew a pair of magpies on the rice paper. The magpie on the left leaned over and raised its head, opening its mouth to sing. The magpie on the right looked back at the sky, with its mouth and tongue slightly open, announcing the good news and welcoming the spring. The painting of the pair of birds was vivid.
.
Ye Qingya's ink flower and bird paintings are very distinctive. They are derived from the essence of traditional flower and bird paintings, but also come up with new ideas. The birds' heads and feet are painted realistically, and the body and feathers are painted in a freehand style, with the right balance of reality and reality.
, complement each other, and the brushwork is unrestrained and smooth yet delicate.
Pan Chengfeng had just browsed some of Ye Qingya's works online, but only by seeing them in person can one see how good a person's skills are. Pan Chengfeng really didn't expect that a woman as delicate and quiet as Ye Qingya could have such a free and easy brushwork.
Traditional Chinese painting pays attention to skills, and the most important thing that reflects the skills is the strength of the brush. After Ye Qingya painted the two magpies, he painted rocks under their feet. The brush strokes were powerful, with hooks and cracks, and the shades, dry and wet were done in one go. Then he "broken" in the recesses.
Light ink.
Pan Chengfeng's eyes lit up, and he realized that Ye Qingya was learning from Shi Tao when he painted mountains and rocks. This painting method with hooks and cracks was distinctive.
Ye Qingya could have painted two magpies and left the rest to Pan Chengfeng, but out of politeness, she finished the main body of the painting so that Pan Chengfeng did not have to fill in the rocks at the feet of the magpies and the blank space next to them.
This leaves enough room for Pan Chengfeng to develop.
The courtesy between literati is reflected in the details, and there is no need to speak at all.
Ye Qingya put the brush on the pen holder and said with a smile: "It's embarrassing!"
Xu Chunliang said: "From my perspective, this painting is already quite perfect."
Pan Chengfeng said: "I see it that way too. Miss Ye is so precious. I'm a little worried that I'm superfluous."
Xu Ying said with a smile: "Master Pan, don't be humble. You are not allowed to add anything to the story, only add icing on the cake."
Pan Chengfeng said: "In that case, I will give you the icing on the cake."
He picked up a brush and painted an old plum blossom on the left side of the rock. The plum blossoms in his paintings had different postures, either upward, downward, in bud, or in full bloom, with a certain degree of density, and every place was just right. Plum blossoms
The branches cleverly wrapped around the back of the mountain rock and penetrated from the other side, connecting the two together.
The composition is concise, the pen and ink are appropriate, and the branches are thick and thin, creating a full sense of vitality.
Ye Qingya secretly praised, no wonder Pan Chengfeng has become famous in recent years. This man is different from those masters who only seek fame and reputation. He is really capable. Look carefully, the plum blossoms on this tree are all different. If it were not for careful observation of life, there would be no difference.
It is impossible to reach the realm of lifelike objects that can be easily grasped at your fingertips.
Lu Xiangnan glanced at it and said, "It's good, but the picture is a bit empty."
Pan Chengfeng said: "Here you come."
Lu Xiangnan said: "Are you general my army? I will do it!" He was not polite, took a brush and drew a cluster of orchids on top of the plum blossoms. Although he looked rough, his strokes were both strong and soft.
Economic.
Youdao takes ten years to paint bamboo and a hundred years to paint orchids. This shows the difficulty of painting orchids. Orchids pay attention to the priority, virtuality, reality, density, hidden exposure, opening and closing to echo.
Lu Xiangnan is very flexible in the use of water and ink. The ink must be new and the water must be clear. When painting, he dips in water first and then ink. The ink is divided into five colors and the brush strokes are versatile. The orchids he painted have long and elegant leaves and lively flowers.
And delicate and beautiful.
Xu Chunliang and Mei Ruxue looked at each other, and they realized just now that Lu Xiangnan was hiding so much that he could paint so well.
Luo Xiyun made tea and came over to watch the fun. She smiled and said: "Lao Lu, I thought you had stopped painting Chinese paintings a long time ago, but I didn't expect you are still so good."
Lu Xiangnan said: "This is a king's fragrance, but its root is in the empty valley. I only love orchids. I have only painted some orchids in my life. When I traveled abroad and had no money in my pocket, I relied on this craft to make money."
Everyone laughed.
Pan Chengfeng said: "This orchid painting is good, but if you do this, the layout of the entire painting will be wrong and the balance will be lost."
Ye Qingya commented: "The picture is too spacey."
Pan Chengfeng said: "Boss Xu, it's your turn."
Xu Ying said: "How can I reach the hall of elegance with my little skills?"
Lu Xiangnan said: "Being happy alone is not as good as having everyone happy. It doesn't mean that you have to produce a masterpiece that will be handed down from generation to generation. Let's all have fun together."
Xu Ying said: "Okay." She added a pine tree in the upper left corner of the painting. Only part of the trunk was exposed. The bark was like dragon scales. The hanging branches were written in heavy ink. The pine needles were like dragon claws. Xu Ying's paintings have been praised by Pan Cheng.
Thanks to Feng's guidance, coupled with her good foundation and diligent practice, she has made rapid progress recently.
Luo Xiyun said: "This pine tree is better painted than riding the wind."
Xu Ying said: "Xi Yun, you are flattering me! I learned how to paint pine trees from Master Pan, and I can't even catch up to him."
Pan Chengfeng said: "Your pine tree is good for its layout. With this pine tree, the whole picture is immediately coordinated and balanced again."
Ye Qingya said: "It seems that the four gentlemen are missing." She said to Mei Ruxue: "Xiaoxue, please come and draw a few strokes of bamboo."
Mei Ruxue smiled and said: "Then I will join in the fun, masters, just don't laugh at me."
Usually, when painting ink bamboo, you have to dry it first, but this painting already has many factors. The bamboo leaves can only be used as decorations, not to dominate the scene. Mei Ruxue painted the bamboos accompanying the pine branches, using saturated ink color to draw the bamboo leaves in one stroke.
There is no sluggishness in the middle, the leaf tips are sharp, looking left and right, the branches are distinct, and the leaves are connected to the branches, which is in line with the laws of nature.
The joint painting part of the five people has been completed, and the task of inscription was handed over to Xu Chunliang.
Lu Xiangnan recited a poem impromptu - Magpies quacking to announce good news, plum blossoms attracting hundreds of flowers to bloom. The soft wind blows away the cold wind, and the world is filled with happiness and joy.
Xu Chunliang's brush strokes were completed in one go. The "New Year's Annunciation Picture" jointly created by six people is now complete. Although everyone's level is different, the overall completion of this work is very high. Xu Ying plans to frame this painting.
After it was done, it was hung in the tea house to commemorate their elegant gathering.
