Since the 1930s, the stylistic forms such as summary narrative, psychological description, and vertical narration in modern short stories have gradually weakened, while the stylistic features of scene, scene, and fragmentation have become more prominent. This is the so-called "sketch style" novel.
.
For example, "Three Five Dou More" written by Ye Shengtao two years ago is a typical "sketch style" novel. This year, "sketch style" novels suddenly emerged crazily and became the most popular form of novel creation nowadays, so much so that Zhou Hexuan and others
It should also be discussed during a paper meeting.
Everyone gradually talked about the reasons why "sketch style" novels are popular, then talked about its advantages and disadvantages, and finally discussed how to integrate the "sketch style" style into full-length novels.
The discussion on this topic ended, it was almost 11 o'clock, Ling Shuhua suddenly suggested: "It's too boring to just discuss novel creation, why don't we all draw. It doesn't matter whether it is Chinese painting or foreign painting. Let's use today's literary meeting as the theme. One time limit.
In an hour, after painting is almost finished, we can have lunch."
"This is a good idea!" Su Xuelin immediately agreed.
Su Xuelin, Ling Shuhua and Yuan Changying are collectively known as the "Three Masters of Luojia". They all have good painting skills, so of course they have to take the opportunity to show off.
Drawing paper, brushes, and paints have all been prepared, and everyone gets the tools they want.
Zhou Hexuan got a pen at random, spread the drawing paper on the drawing board, sat cross-legged on the ground, put the drawing board between his knees, and started creating comics. He was very fast, and it only took half an hour to finish it, and then it was all over the floor.
Wander around and admire other people's work.
"Hey, the great monk has finished painting too?" Zhou Hexuan walked behind Master Zhongyong.
"Amitabha!"
The old monk put his hands together and smiled: "It's just a humble work, it's easy to make people laugh."
Zhou Hexuan took a closer look and found that Master Zhongyong's painting was a splash of ink. The main part of the picture was a bamboo forest in the mountains, with the outline of the temple and monk's residence faintly visible. There were faint traces of people in the forest, and there was a lot of white space in the upper left corner.
In those blank spaces, four verses of poetry were written with a brush: "The ten directions gather together, and everyone learns from nothing. This is the place where the Buddha is chosen, and the heart is empty and the place returns."
The old monk's painting skills and calligraphy are only average. What's rare is that the artistic conception is more wonderful, and the four verses of the poem are the finishing touch.
These four sentences were written by Pang Yun in the Tang Dynasty. This person was named Daoxuan, also known as Pang Jushi. He was known as the "first layman in white clothes" after Bodhidharma came from the East to establish Zen Buddhism. He is also known as the "Eastern Land Vimalakirti"
.
According to legend, Pang Yun went to pay homage to Mazu and asked: "Who can control all things?" Mazu replied: "Wait until you drink up the water of the Xijiang River in one breath, and then come and talk to me." Pang Yun suddenly understood and directly entered the enlightenment of Zen Buddhism.
territory.
From then on, "the heart is empty and you will return home" has become a Zen saying, which means that if you see your nature and enlightenment on a certain occasion, you will be as excited as the top scorer in high school.
Master Zhongyong quoted these four verses to write a poem for the painting. To put it bluntly, it is still a commercial exchange. Translated according to a specific context, it can be understood as: Ah, there are sages from all over the world coming to the gathering today, and they are all very awesome.
.Our Xiangfu Zen Temple is a hero’s dojo, where we discuss the principles of heaven and earth, and everyone can understand them in the cultural gathering.
Zhou Hexuan smiled and said: "Master monk, why don't you give this painting to me?"
Master Zhongyong said: "If the donor likes it, just take it."
"Then I'm not welcome." Zhou Hexuan smoothly took away the painting that was still wet with ink.
Zhou Hexuan ran to Xu Zhimo again and saw that Xu Zhimo was painting Gongbi paintings. Not only was this guy good at poetry, but his Gongbi painting techniques were also quite good.
It's just that when Zhou Hexuan saw the content of his drawing, he suddenly had a black line...
"Hey, the theme of today's painting is Wenhui. What are you drawing while staring at a piece of bamboo?" Zhou Hexuan said speechlessly.
Xu Zhimo subconsciously reached out to touch his bald head, then pointed at the bamboo and said: "This bamboo has a great sense of Zen, which can only be understood but cannot be expressed in words."
"Please speak human language!" Zhou Hexuan said.
Xu Zhimo spread his hands: "Okay, I just didn't know what to draw, so I just picked a piece of bamboo at random."
"Then you continue." After Zhou Hexuan said that, he walked away and ran to Lu Xiaoman.
Perhaps Xu Zhimo's becoming a monk had a big impact on Lu Xiaoman. The picture she painted now is full of desolation. Everyone in the bamboo forest laughed heartily, but a lonely woman stood in the corner, looking at the swaying bamboo branches.
Something to think about.
Zhou Hexuan didn't make any comments. He was actually a little disgusted with Lu Xiaoman. This woman was too pretentious.
Then he turned around and walked towards Lin Huiyin, and saw that this talented woman was also painting fine brushwork, but what she painted was the scene of eating hot pot last night. Everyone was sitting around a large pot, and Hu Shi stood in the middle with his orchid fingers raised, with a funny look on his face.
After Hu Shi saw it, he would have the urge to tear up the painting. It was so embarrassing.
After reading everyone's works, Zhou Hexuan couldn't help but sigh, the literati of the Republic of China were so awesome. No matter what their profession was, they had studied calligraphy and painting, and no matter how bad they were, they could still make sketches look good.
Even Zhang Jiazhu, who has always shown himself to be unlearned and unskilled, has the level of a professional art student in his sketches. When Wen Yiduo, Yu Shangyuan and others left the United States, he personally drew a sketch for each of them as a souvenir. Wen Yiduo and others left the United States.
Mr. Duo also presented paintings as souvenirs and said in a letter to his family: "One of my new friends is Zhang Junjia Zhu... who has a high appreciation of literature and art, is eager to learn, and has extraordinary thoughts..."
Ruan Lingyu sneaked up to Yu Peichen and sighed in a low voice: "Miss Yu, why are they so powerful?"
"It's just basic skills." Yu Peichen didn't think it was a big deal. Her calligraphy level was very high, and although her painting skills were not impressive, it wasn't too embarrassing.
"It's just basic skills..." Ruan Lingyu unconsciously stepped back further, immediately widening the distance between herself and these top students.
In fact, Ruan Lingyu is good at singing and dancing, can play the piano and the violin, is proficient in English, can speak a little French, can do passable calligraphy, and most importantly, has superb acting skills. If such a female star is placed in a few decades,
, enough to be regarded as a talented woman by the media.
She just met a group of perverts at this moment.
When lunch time came, Zhou Hexuan announced the end of the painting and took everyone to the temple canteen to have a vegetarian meal. As for the paintings, the monks carefully put them away and hung them in the monastery for everyone to appreciate each other.
After everyone had lunch, they all couldn't wait to go to the monastery to comment on other people's works.
There were many onlookers watching Zhou Hexuan's cartoon, and from time to time some people laughed so hard that they couldn't hold their legs together. The reason is very simple. His cartoon is in a cartoon style, with all the characters holding big heads. Although the proportions seem uncoordinated, everyone's expressions are
They are all lifelike.
For example, Hu Shi was painted with extremely large glasses by Zhou Hexuan, and the small eyes behind the frames were narrowed into slits. His smile was cunning, and his right hand was stretched out to scratch the itch. Xu Zhimo's bald head was particularly prominent, and even
There was a bright light, and he was yawning with his hand half covering his mouth.
In this cartoon, infinite artistic exaggeration is carried out in order to highlight the characters and appearance of everyone. It can be said that everyone is full of ugliness.
The cartoon style is beyond the times and does not attract talents. Lin Huiyin burst out laughing when he looked at the bald Xu in the cartoon.
