Chapter 416: The Painting Method of the Founding School (II)
Li Er just took the sketchpad in Zhang Nan's hand, and he gasped, how could it be so similar, Li Er even felt that Zhang Nan had printed him on paper. Of course, this is an exaggeration, but it is undeniable that in ancient times, when freehand and spirituality were emphasized, Zhang Nan suddenly came up with a painting with obvious layering and the difference between light and shadow, which can attract people's attention.
Due to cultural differences, with the Western Renaissance as the dividing point, the paintings of China and the West can be said to have gone in different directions.
Classical Chinese painting divides the painting object into two parts: form and spirit. Heavy gods are not heavy shapes. Chinese painting emphasizes the vividness of the charm, and the truth of all things. The freehand figure is mainly to express the emotions and inner thoughts and feelings of the character, and the painting technique will be appropriately deformed to highlight his external characteristics. It's not when it's pure to reproduce. Unlike Western painting, Western classical painting emphasizes the structural accuracy of the form.
The line modeling is the essence of Chinese painting, first of all, the first point, the tool limits this modeling, the traces left by the brush on the paper are almost linear, although there are methods of painting, rubbing, dotting, dyeing, etc., but these are all unfolded on the line modeling.
Using line modeling as the basis of painting is doomed to be impossible for Chinese painting to be completely close to reality.
Secondly, on the other hand, another reason why Chinese paintings are not very realistic is the two key parts of perspective and light and shadow. Although before the Renaissance, Western painting did not have the concept of perspective and light and shadow, but in the end the West did.
So there are two directions: freehand and realistic.
Obviously, Comrade Li Er, who was accustomed to seeing freehand, suddenly saw Zhang Nan's realist paintings, and it was impossible not to be shocked.
Li Er's inhalation of cold air also made the ministers present more curious, Li Er didn't take more, and directly handed the portrait in his hand to Yan Liben, Yan Liben took it and looked at it, and he was also quite shocked.
Zhang Nan's hand was a painting method that he had never seen before, but it made this Danqing master in the early Tang Dynasty burst out of his eyes. There is nothing else, just because Zhang Nan's paintings are too similar.
"Yan Aiqing, what do you think of Qingquan's paintings?" Li Er asked.
At this time, Yan Liben was still staring at Zhang Nan's paintings, as if he wanted to find out why Zhang Nan's portraits were so expressive.
Li Eryi asked a few words in a row, but Yan Liben didn't hear it, and finally the eldest grandson Wuji, who came to Yan Liben's side to look at the painting, pulled Yan Liben's sleeve, and Yan Liben reacted.
"This, the emperor, the paintings made by Lord Zhang, the ministers are not as good as the ministers, and the ministers have never seen anyone who can use the gongbi so skillfully." Yan Liben also did not hesitate to praise himself.
"Lord Yan has won the award, but the painting method used in the next is called sketching, which is one of the sketches." Zhang Nan said.
"Sketches? Sketch? What's that? Why have I never heard of this kind of painting technique? Yan Liben asked with a strange expression, after all, Yan Liben, who was good at painting, had never heard of any sketches.
"If you've ever heard of it, you've got ghosts." Zhang Nan complained in his heart, but on his lips, Zhang Nan still explained to Yan Liben what a sketch is.
"To put it simply, it is a monochrome painting of light and shade with lines using charcoal, pencil and other objects. This is called sketching, and sketching is just one branch of sketching. Zhang Nan said with a smile.
"Charcoal? Can you also paint with charcoal? Yan Liben expressed deep shock.
"Nature is possible, as long as you want to paint, isn't everything that can leave traces of a paintbrush? Lord Yan, did you say that the murals in Shandong in ancient times were all made with brushes? Zhang Nan said with a smile.
After hearing this, Yan Liben showed a thoughtful expression, and then arched his hand and said, "I have been taught." ”
"Yan Aiqing, how do you read what sketch Qingquan said?" Li Er asked, after all, in Li Er's eyes, Yan Liben's painting work was impeccable, Zhang Na suddenly took out something new, and Li Er could only ask Yan Liben.
"This ...... Your Majesty, I don't hide it, the paintings I made under are all painted by learning the brushwork of my predecessors, and Mr. Zhang's paintings, the minister thinks, are completely at the realm of being able to open a mountain and establish a school, this sketch is really shocking to the minister. Yan Liben is right.
After Yan Liben finished speaking, he was shocked by Li Er, there was nothing else, in Li Er's eyes, Yan Liben's painting work was naturally considered to be upper-class, otherwise Comrade Li Er would not have handed over so much image photography work to Yan Liben, and now Yan Liben said that Zhang Nan's painting method can open up a mountain and establish a school, so there is absolutely no problem.
This made Li Er a little depressed, not that Li Er was jealous of Zhang Nan's talent, Li Er was depressed about why Zhang Nan was unwilling to be his son-in-law, after all, when Zhang Nan accompanied him and the eldest grandson Empress and Li Lizhen to play yesterday, Zhang Nan's eyes did not stay on Li Lizhi for long, which is enough to prove that Zhang Nan has no meaning to his daughter.
This made Li Er, who wanted to marry Li Lizhen to Zhang Nan, quite depressed. Of course, if Zhang Nan can hear Li Er's heart, he will definitely shout wronged, where does Zhang Nan not want to see it, he doesn't dare to look at it, although Li Li is very good-looking, a standard beauty, but compared to a beauty, Zhang Nan still pays more attention to the safety of his own life, what if he takes a second look, let Li Er grab the pigtail, and forcibly stuff Li Li to him?
Of course, Zhang Nan is a typical thief with a thief heart and no thief guts, although Zhang Nan likes beautiful women, but it does not mean that Zhang Nan wants to live a life of three wives and four concubines, although Zhang Nan wants to, but Zhang Nan always feels sorry for Cui Yue.
Thinking of this, Li Er not only snorted, but then said: "Qingquan, your portrait is actually so well painted, why don't you draw one for me and all the ministers as well." Li Erdao.
When Zhang Nan heard this, he was stunned, what is this, why did the work of the portrait of the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion fall on my head inexplicably? Zhang Nan was puzzled.
Cui Shao seemed to see Zhang Nan's thoughts, so he stood up and said, "Your Majesty, aren't we discussing the matter of this national flag?" If you want to paint a portrait, why don't you wait until after the dispersal of the dynasty? ”
When Li Er heard this, he remembered that they were discussing the design of the national flag, so Li Er waved his hand impatiently and said: "Then draw the national flag first, Qingquan, you first draw the national flag you designed, if you make me satisfied, it will be fine, if you make me dissatisfied, hum." ”
"You hum a chicken feather, you, how can you stand up and be the first person is still wrong." Zhang Nan also doesn't know where he provoked this guy, of course, if Zhang Nan knows Li Er's inner thoughts, he must be emotionally aware of Li Er's big brain, after all, he can think of marrying his daughter from the national flag, except for Li Er, it is estimated that there will be no second person who can do it.
