Soul Painter

Because of Anna.

So in order to save time, and also to make Ali not so hard - Ali is already working hard to stay awake, and his sobriety is a necessary condition for using "distortion" to describe his soul.

Now, Ali and Tyson are drawn by Govan and Anna respectively, so it will be a little faster.

This time, the background will no longer be depicted with infinite symmetry, but the focus will be on the two boxing champions.

Gao Fan's current 'distortion' skill value is low.

After completing the two paintings of "Cat" and "Moon Spider Woman", his upper limit of skill points should be increased, but since the mysticism has been reset to zero, there are only 13 points left for his distortion skills.

However, as long as the number of visitors at the Metropolitan Museum keeps up, these skill points will be replenished.

Gao Fan estimated that the upper limit of his skill value should be 30 points of 'distortion', 35 points of 'world', and 40 points of 'occultism'. The current upper limit of distance, the gap is large, and it needs about 2000 spare SAN points to supplement.

It’s not much, but the Metropolitan Museum has a daily flow of 20,000 people.

Therefore, although it is low now, it will return to high sooner or later.

It's just that Gao Fan was a little uncomfortable with the ups and downs of his skills.

Even so, when Tyson stood curiously behind Gao Fan and watched Gao Fan paint a portrait of his idol, he also saw a breathtaking scene:

He saw a burly figure on the drawing paper.

A large number of messy lines wrap a muscular body.

Those messy lines should be talking about an all-black background.

One of Ali's gloves melted into the darkness, and the other was held up to the light, as if there was a beam of victory ahead of him.

The same is true of his face, half in the dark, the other half in the light, where the light and the dark meet, is Ali's energetic youthful face, that should be the most powerful moment in Ali's life.

His slightly lowered forehead and this posture make his line of sight full of oppression. Obviously he didn't draw his lower body, but he seems to be shaking and moving, looking for your flaws with his unique butterfly steps.

"GAO, this is amazing, you didn't draw his lower body, but why do I think he's going to attack me?" Tyson was surprised.

"Eyes." Gao Fan said with a smile, he covered Ali's eyes on the portrait with his palm, and the shaking feeling Tyson felt disappeared immediately, "The eyes are the key."

"It's really amazing painting skills." Tyson said with emotion. He didn't know painting, but he had heard of Gao Fan's reputation as a great painter, so he accepted the invitation. Now it seems that Gao Fan's painting skills It really surpassed his imagination.

"However, if Ali is frontal in the painting, and I am a profile in the painting, and I don't wear gloves, how do we fight?" Tyson raised a new puzzle.

Under the brushwork of the female artist named Anna, Tyson has another style. He is a profile image, not wearing gloves, but crossing his hands. Against a slightly dark background, there is a white dove on his hands .

This is a sketch, but Tyson can clearly see the whiteness of the pigeon and the blackness of the tattoo on his face. It is necessary to distinguish carefully to see that the artist has depicted whiteness and darkness in the sketch through light and dark contrast and a large amount of white space.

In the painting, Tyson lowered his eyes and stared at the white dove in his hand. The peck of the white dove touched Tyson's nose lightly. It was even a bit sacred. Tyson saw redemption and hope in it. He liked this painting Painting, if possible, he is willing to buy it, because this painting touched his heart.

The redemption he was looking for in life after he got out of prison.

But these two sketches do not seem to be composed under a unified creative layout. As Tyson said, he didn't wear gloves. Could it be that he threw the pigeon at Ali's face?

"This is just a draft." Gao Fan introduced to Tyson, "We need to describe the most outstanding characteristics of you first, and then integrate them into a painting."

"This is very different from the draft in my understanding." Tyson muttered. He looked at the withered Ali on the hospital bed in front of Gao Fan, and he couldn't understand how the painter found the boxing champion from such a withered body. most powerful moments.

It took about three days to prepare for the painting.

In three days, Gao Fan and Anna described the characteristics of Ali and Tyson.

The portrait of Ali at the junction of light and darkness symbolizes that half his life was heroic and the other half he fought against illness. Now he is old, but his ambition is still there.

The ornamentation on Tyson's face and the white dove in his hand represent his glory and redemption. Now he looks like a tiger with its paws closed, but its power still remains.

The sample is drawn here.

It should be over.

Next, Gao Fan and Anna can return to Bostno and slowly create this work with color and mystery.

However, after Gao Fan showed this sketch to Ali and told him, please look forward to the finished product.

Ali suddenly regained consciousness for a moment, and he struggled to spit out vague words such as 'stay', 'here', and 'please'.

"You want us to stay here?" Gao Fan asked.

Ali nodded.

"Want to watch the completion of this painting?" Gao Fan asked again.

Ali nodded again.

"Are you..." Gao Fan suddenly had an inspiration, but he didn't have the heart to ask.

He felt that Ali might have thought death was imminent.

That is the end and the liberation.

"Okay. Let's finish this work here." Gao Fan said.

Anna has no objection to this, and Lawrence naturally has no objection either.

A painter's studio is the easiest to build. A drawing board, some brushes, and some paints are enough. Of course, Gao Fan still needs as much mystery as possible. After these three days, he put his own mysterious Learning has been raised to 20.

The Metropolitan Museum can provide Gao Fan with more than 100 spare SAN points every day, that is, about 200 people have appreciated Gao Fan’s paintings. There will be a doubling.

Next, due to the collaboration between Gao Fan and Anna, the painting was completed very quickly, and at the same time, it was very interesting.

As a layman who paid close attention to the whole process, Tyson found it amusing, not to mention Lawrence. After obtaining Gao Fan's permission, he set up a video camera at the painting site to record the unique creative process of the two painters.

First of all, the two painters probably didn't think about how to construct the draft in advance. They just created together on a canvas measuring 1.2 by 0.8 meters. They had a tacit understanding and quickly drew the background of the painting, a boxing ring.

And then, for the description of the two boxing champions, according to Tyson, he seems to have seen a boxing match.

In the bottoming stage, on the ring, Ali, represented by Gao Fan, has already competed with Tyson, represented by Anna, from every line, to every structure, to every point of space on the ring , are repeatedly entangled and scrambled by the painter's brush.

According to normal logic, this painting will eventually turn into a mess, but in fact, after the background of the whole picture is clear, two boxers punching each other but with clear shapes have already leaped onto the scene.

It's just magic!
