Soul Painter

Gao Fan had a dream.

In the dream he was neither Gao Fan nor Monet.

It is an oriental hermit who works hard in the countryside.

After waking up, he froze for a while.

He doesn't know what this dream heralds, is it a directivity?

But Gao Fan can't hold the third possibility in his head now, he already has two 'lives'.

After owning Monet's paintbrush, Gao Fan obtained the second-stage master skill of painting 'microcosm'.

Now he has two master skills, 'distortion' and 'microcosm', any one is enough to depict the image of a cat, but when he has two, Gao Fan can't draw anymore, and the two different creative techniques cannot complement each other , but conflict with each other, but Gao Fan was too greedy to give up any of them.

Of course, he couldn't give up the 'distortion', so he could only put down Monet's brush, get rid of the 'microscopic' skills, and repeat the creation of the elk cat statue according to the previous technique in London. In about a year, you can paint the entire church.

Time is not a problem, Gao Fan is willing to live in this fairyland-like sea of ​​flowers in Provence for a year.

But Gao Fan is unwilling to give up the 'microcosm', he is like a child who got his favorite toy, how could he let it go?

That's Monet~

Holding Monet's paintbrush, he has a 'microcosm' with 50 skill points.

Gao Fan not only has this powerful second-stage master painting skills.

It also seems to have touched everything about Monet.

For a whole week before, Gao Fan seemed to be experiencing Monet's life:

In the middle of the nineteenth century, he was born in a narrow and cramped street in Paris. His childhood memories only include his mother’s white apron and the lights of night watchmen on the streets of Paris at night. Paris is like a big prison.

Then he came to Le Havre, a port city with sparkling Seine River. His father's instrument shop looked like a magic factory with countless wonderful props to him when he was five years old. He was skipping classes. , came into contact with painting and fell in love with it.

It's just that what he drew at that time were all caricatures. He really started to create oil paintings when he was close to 20 years old. He was influenced by Eugène Boudin. Eugène Boudin was born in a sailor family and had a special liking for the scenery of the Seine. Eugène Boudin came from Miller’s The style of painting shocked him greatly.

In the second year, he was introduced by Eugene Boudin and entered the Swiss Academy of Fine Arts, where he met the tall Pissarro and the eloquent George Clemenceau. Students included Gauguin and Cézanne, and he admired Pissarro's ability to teach his students.

And Georges Clemenceau, who later became the Deputy Prime Minister of France, who would have thought of it?

In the next two years, he served in the military, retired from medical service due to illness, and made good friends such as Renoir. In the conflict with his father, he walked along the Seine River and was depressed. At this time, he met the beautiful Camille, yes, Camille Er, the beauty and miracle in his life~

Three years later, he married Camille, and at the same time, his paintings using Camille as a model were affirmed by Zola. In the same year, he had another miracle in his life, his son Jane. By this time, his life was still difficult, but his skills were improving, and he glimpsed the skills of masters beyond the realm of masters.

In 1870, he remembered that day, when he saw Turner’s works in an exhibition hall by the Thames River, inspiration fell from the sky like a torrential rain at that moment, and he realized the great “microcosm”.

The days that followed were like flowing water, Holland, Paris, the birth of Impressionism, the ridicule of art critics, the failure of auctions, the break and recombination with Impressionism, until around 1900, when he created the "Water Lilies" series and became famous, the world Finally facing up to his pioneering work in the field of painting, the Louvre broke the tradition of not exhibiting works by living artists and displayed 14 of his works.

He finally became a great painter, and his life has come to an end. At the age of 86, in the torment of illness, he held his own paintbrush and died at his friend's house with nostalgia for life. In his next life, he will dedicate his life to art...

Gao Fan held Monet's brush and spent a week experiencing Monet's 86 years of life.

These traces of life are intertwined with the "micro" skills. Gao Fan experienced every understanding and pioneering of Monet's painting. He was impressed by Monet's spirituality and was also deeply attracted by it. I am in a trance of Monet or Gao Fan.

However, today, this issue seems to be no longer important.

Gao Fan wiped his slightly moist eye sockets. On the eighth day after he came to the Unnamed Manor, when the sun was shining on the sea of ​​purple lavender flowers at dusk, he came back to the small white church, but this time he did not sit down. He was in a daze on the chair at the door of the church, but walked into the church and picked up the paintbrush.

When Gao Fan picked up the paintbrush, Ms. JK saw this scene.

Not only Ms. J·K, but also other members of SUN CLUB saw it.

Cameras were set up throughout the church. SUN CLUB paid too much for this portrait. They didn't want to have accidents, but accidents happened frequently, which made them anxious. Seeing that Gao Fan was finally about to start creating, they relieved.

However, when they saw that for a whole day, Gao Fan drew a line on this wall and another line on the opposite wall, and then started to stare at the two lines in a daze, everyone was shocked. They all felt like they were being played.

"We have to do something." A singer who has been described as a black soul singer said in his smokey voice. "My life is numbered. In my lifetime, I want to see greatness come."

"You've got a long time to live, old friend," said another director known for delaying filming cycles and increasing budgets in Hollywood, "but we really can't wait any longer, Ms. J.K."

"What do you think, George?" Ms. J.K. asked the other.

Georg Baselitz, the master of German neo-expressionism, is also a member of SUN CLUB, so we can understand why he is so appreciative of Ms. J.K’s commission. When the other two masters withdrew from the commission, he still chose to join , In other words, he is the last hole card of SUN CLUB. When there is no oil painter who can accept this commission, George needs to be on top.

"He draws two completely different styles of lines, it's amazing... Sorry, I know you don't want to discuss this, or I can meet this GAO, talk to him face to face, and stimulate him, I heard he There is a strong sense of competitiveness and desire to win, and maybe that will work," said George Baselitz.

"Old George, you are old too, are you sure that your skills can threaten this young man favored by God?" the singer said in a non-offensive tone with unique straightforwardness and enthusiasm.

"I'll take my student," said George Baselitz. "She's a real genius."

"I heard she was knocked out in the hotel, is she okay now?"

"Everything is fine."
