Fringe artists in the entertainment industry

Chapter 269 267. Hands-on teaching

In the clean and tidy lounge, the light is a bit dim, with only a small spotlight shining down from the ceiling, and the tapered aperture forming a funnel on the wall.

Li Lizhen was sitting on the sofa, and the beautiful light from the spotlight shone on her body, forming a beautiful halo, which made her look particularly holy and pure.

It's just that Li Lizhen's current dress has nothing to do with holiness. Chen Li'an loved the contrast and conflict to death. After throwing away the clothes scattered on the ground, he held Li Lizhen's hand and discussed why they were used in religious paintings. The human body in its most primitive state is considered holy.

After intense discussions, it often takes a moment of rest to regain one's thoughts. It took Chen Li'an a while to recover from the excitement just now.

Looking at Li Lizhen who was still letting go, Chen Li'an suddenly understood the meaning of a word.

A bold girl. Li Li is really a bold girl, bold and unrestrained.

However, this kind of boldness will only appear in certain situations. On weekdays, when Li Lizhen and Chen Li'an are together, she still has an inexplicable sense of inferiority in her heart, and she is a little cautious in everything she says and does.

Chen Li'an likes Li Lizhen now more than usual. Maybe she is the real one at this time.

After Chen Li'an rested for a while, he stood up and found a dry towel to wipe off the water stains on Li Lizhen's body.

After wiping, Chen Li'an looked up at the clock on the wall. It was already a quarter past five, more than an hour before the time he and Zhou Huimin agreed on.

There was still plenty of time, so Chen Li'an didn't rush over. He looked at Li Lizhen who had come back to her senses and had a warm relationship with her for a while, and said some things that should be said at this time.

Li Lizhen, who had rested in Chen Li'an's arms for a while, glanced at the time, sat up with her hands on her hands and said to him, "Don't you have an appointment with someone? Do you want to go there early?"

"Well, the time is almost up."

Chen Li'an stood up and put on his clothes. He looked at the water stains on the floor and glanced at Li Lizhen again. Li Lizhen, who had just recovered, immediately blushed and her legs that were put together couldn't help but twist back and forth.

"Don't look at it. I'll clean it later. If you look at it again, I don't want you to leave." Li Lizhen looked up at Chen Li'an, her eyes that had become cold became hot again.

Chen Li'an coughed and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Just pack up and leave. I'll contact you later when I have time."

"Yes." Li Lizhen's voice sounded a little disappointed, but she wasn't complaining at all. It was already a romantic relationship, so don't have so many extravagant hopes.

Chen Li'an and Li Lizhen chatted for a few more words before leaving the lounge and going straight to the address Zhou Huimin gave him. It was not a restaurant or a studio, but directly to her home.

Chen Li'an was actually a little surprised. He didn't expect to go directly to her house to look at paintings. He didn't know if he could have a meal. He was very hungry now and had just consumed a lot of energy.

Zhou Huimin only started to be obsessed with painting this year, maybe because she has been retired from the industry and has nothing to do, but she is still very talented.

Zhou Huimin's home is beautifully decorated, similar to the Italian minimalist style that became popular later. Many of the furniture have a sense of design and a warm feeling.

Chen Li'an liked this style very much, but his attention was attracted by Zhou Huimin at the moment.

Under the simple and loose house clothes, her two slender straight legs are wearing long white cotton stockings. They are very beautiful under the light, playful yet sexy.

Chen Li'an wanted to take a few more glances, but that was too rude, so he had to look away.

Zhou Huimin's hair was just casually pinned with hairpins, and there were long, slightly curly hair scattered on the side of her face. She looked particularly gentle and charming, just like the perfect wife imagined by most men.

Zhou Huimin had put a little thought into her "casual" dress tonight. She had watched all Chen Li'an's movies in the past two days, and she could read news about him in the newspaper every day, and she had feelings for Chen Li'an. So a little understanding.

For example, he likes the long-legged Wang Zuxian. For example, he played the leading actor who has a foot fetish in Nanjing Christ very well.

These were enough for Zhou Huimin to see some of Chen Li'an's quirks, otherwise he wouldn't be dressed like this today.

Although Zhou Huimin is said to be the head of Jade Girl, that is just a packaged persona, and he is not stupid and sweet.

Now looking at Chen Li'an's reaction, Zhou Huimin raised a faint smile at the corner of her mouth. She liked Chen Li'an's face and he was an artist. Although she had only seen him a few times, she was very fond of him.

After all, he is even more beautiful than Li Ming. What woman wouldn't like it?

Zhou Huimin looked at Chen Li'an and asked, "Would you like something to eat? But I can only cook wonton noodles, so don't dislike it."

Chen Li'an smiled and said, "No, the wonton noodles are very good."

More than ten minutes later, the two of them were sitting at the dining table eating wonton noodles and chatting casually.

After the two of them finished eating, they went to see Zhou Huimin's painting, an unfinished landscape gouache painting.

The colors are used beautifully, and the overall color matching is harmonious, making it look very comfortable.

But the only drawback was that the paint was too thick. Chen Li'an picked up the spatula and gently touched the accumulated paint on the drawing paper. He found that it had not solidified yet, and he felt relieved.

"Isn't the painting good?" Zhou Huimin looked at Chen Li'an and asked.

Chen Li'an shook his head and said: "The painting is very good, but it is a little too thick and looks dull. It would be better to make it thinner. It would be better to add a little water when mixing colors."

Zhou Huimin said with some annoyance: "What should I do now? The paint has already been applied so thickly."

"Just adjust it. Just scrape off the top layer of paint and paint again." Chen Li'an shook the scraper in his hand and said, "Can I do it?"

"Okay, I can't be too happy to have a master like you change my painting." Zhou Huimin said with a smile, his tone was a little playful, and his body was slightly closer to Chen Li'an.

The tip of Chen Li'an's nose was suddenly lingered by a faint fragrance, and the scraper raised in his hand paused in mid-air.

Chen Li'an turned his head slightly and carefully altered her painting with a scraper, blocking out all the messy thoughts in his mind.

Zhou Huimin glanced at Chen Li'an's side face with some surprise. Seeing his focused look, he felt more favorable in his heart.

After a while, Chen Li'an scraped off a layer of heavy paint on the painting, put the scraper into a bucket and washed it before saying, "You can mix the colors again and I'll teach you how to paint."

Zhou Huimin responded, picked up the palette and started to mix colors. However, he was a little unsure when adding water, so he turned to look at Chen Li'an and asked, "How much water should you add to mix?"

"Just a little bit, not too much, just moisten the paint." Chen Li'an explained in detail: "The main reason for adding water is to increase the brightness of the color, and the color will be more vivid, but not too much, otherwise it will It would be too revealing.”

After hearing this, Zhou Huimin nodded, dipped a little water into his paintbrush and started to mix colors.

Chen Li'an sat nearby and watched quietly, suddenly thinking of the time when he and Bo Qing were learning to paint. At that time, he was just as proficient as Zhou Huimin.

However, I am still more talented than Zhou Huimin. Most of the time, I am self-taught, and I can also draw inferences from one example.

After Zhou Huimin quickly mixed the paint, he picked up the brush and started to paint again. Chen Lijing watched quietly for a while before he couldn't hold it in and said, "Can you change the brush to a smaller size? Do you have a fan-shaped brush with such strokes?" More lightweight and breathable.”

"No. Did I paint too hard, but I can't control the strength of my brush strokes." Zhou Huimin looked at Chen Li'an for help.

Chen Li'an frowned slightly. This was his first time teaching someone to draw. Unexpectedly, Zhou Huimin didn't even have a good foundation. However, she has a good sense of color and good modeling skills. She doesn't look like a complete novice.

Chen Li'an glanced at her suspiciously, then reached out to take the pen in her hand, gave her a demonstration and said: "Sweep it over, heavy on the front and light on the back. When you lift the pen, lift it up."

Zhou Huimin held the palette and looked at Chen Li'an without blinking. She felt that Chen Li'an at this moment was exactly the same as the painter and artist she imagined.

"What you drew is much prettier than what I drew." Zhou Huimin looked at the few strokes drawn by Chen Li'an on the drawing paper, feeling that the flowers he drew with a few strokes were much more beautiful than what he had drawn, with a shy expression. a feeling of.

It was the first time that Zhou Huimin felt the gap between himself and professional painters so intuitively, and he felt a little disappointed in his heart.

Chen Li'an drew a few more strokes before returning the pen to Zhou Huimin and saying, "Come and try, just do what I just said."

"good."

Zhou Huimin took a deep breath, picked up the brush and tried Chen Li'an's technique several times. Her beautiful eyebrows couldn't help but wrinkle.

It seems like the painting is even worse...

Chen Li'an couldn't help but said: "Wrist, use the wrist to carry the animation pen. Don't use the sketch method. You can't draw with the big arm and the small arm."

Zhou Huimin was stunned for a moment, tried to move his wrist, looked at Chen Li'an and asked, "Is that so?"

"No, that's it..." Chen Li'an said and raised his hand to hold Zhou Huimin's hand.

The moment Chen Li'an's warm palm grasped Zhou Huimin's, she shrank subconsciously, and the smooth back of her hand slid against Chen Li'an's palm.

The smooth touch made Chen Li'an react. He let go of Zhou Huimin's hand and said, "I'm sorry, it's like this. When your wrist is down..."

Zhou Huimin couldn't help laughing when he saw Chen Li'an retracting his hand and demonstrating seriously, his round eyes turning into crescents.

As Li Lizhen said, he is a gentle and gentleman.

Zhou Huimin suddenly raised his wrist and put it in Chen Li'an's hand and said, "I can't understand you like this. Please teach me step by step."

Chen Li'an turned to look at Zhou Huimin, then held her hand and said, "Okay."

Under the warm light, the two people sat side by side, holding hands and holding paintbrushes in mid-air, practicing again and again. A warm and romantic atmosphere quietly filled the air.

On the other side of the Xiangjiang River, Ji Fa was working overtime with Wang Zuxian and the others. After finishing the report at hand, Ji Fa couldn't help but stretched out and leaned next to Wang Zuxian, looked at her and asked: "Are you so If you don’t go back later, will Chen Li’an be anxious?”

Wang Zuxian tilted her head and looked at Ji Fa and said, "He said he had an appointment tonight and might go back later. It shouldn't be over yet."

Ji Fa suddenly thought of the woman who was chatting with Chen Li'an that day, looked at Wang Zuxian and asked, "Who did he date?"

"A painter, I don't know the details." Wang Zuxian said while sorting out the documents: "Li'an didn't tell me that clearly, and I didn't ask."

Ji Fa looked at Wang Zuxian and wondered if she didn't ask on purpose. With Chen Li'an's romantic character, even if the painter he dated was probably a beauty, otherwise he wouldn't have dated her until the evening.

She must have been the woman who was discussing watercolor with Chen Li'an that day. She looked very innocent, the kind of woman Chen Li'an liked.

"Then have you ever thought about marrying him?" Ji Fa asked gossiping again.

Wang Zuxian was stunned for a while and then said: "I thought about it before, but I don't want to now."

Ji Fa asked again: "Why?"

A trace of helplessness flashed in Wang Zuxian's eyes, and then she said lightly: "There is no reason, I just don't want to."

Seeing Wang Zuxian like this, Ji Fa couldn't help but sigh softly. People like Chen Li'an are really the natural enemies of women!

Fortunately, she never thought about getting involved emotionally, otherwise she would be like Wang Zuxian now.

Ji Fa couldn't help but think of Bo Qing. She seemed to have figured it out now and would no longer fantasize about catching Chen Li'an one day.

Men, unless you take the initiative to show it to him, don't try to capture his heart.

More than an hour later, Wang Zuxian returned home. As soon as she opened the door and went in, she saw the lights on the second floor were on, and there was a box of packed raw porridge on the dining table on the first floor.

From the bathroom on the second floor, there was the sound of gurgling water and Chen Li'an humming, which sounded like he was in a good mood.

A faint smile also appeared on Wang Zuxian's face. She felt that it was good now. Whether she got married or not was not that important. Apart from a piece of paper, it had no effect.

After a while, Chen Li'an's somewhat surprised voice came from the bathroom.

"You're back, are you tired? Be careful and slip on the ground."

"I'm so tired today. I want to take a shower with you. I want you to give me a massage."

"Thank you for your hard work. I want the full set, my big star!"

"It depends on your performance. If you perform well, I will reward you."

"Guaranteed to satisfy you!"
