Soul Painter

Although a deliberate flavor can be read from the master technique of 'concentration'.

But when Gao Fan uses "focus" alone, his works will not pollute reality, which proves that "focus" has nothing to do with the silver key?

"Shouldn't it be irrelevant?" Gao Fan comforted himself.

At this time, the studio door was opened.

Anna and Lawrence walked in.

Lawrence walked briskly, which might be good news.

Gao Fan looked at them.

"Well, Director Hollein and the art consultants appreciate your innovation." Lawrence said word by word, "They think you have returned to the creative path of modernism and opened up a new path for modernism, This form of expression was unprecedented, not as pervasive as your earlier work, but it was clearly groundbreaking, and they felt that sometimes groundbreaking was more important than the quality of the painting."

"In other words, they think my new work is average?" Gao Fan asked.

"Hmm..." Lawrence pondered again.

"Please, tell the truth." Gao Fan said every word, "I can bear it."

"Little brother, the style of your current work is not as good as that of "The Mask" and "Bostonian" in terms of expressiveness and form of expression. You should be very clear about this." Lawrence said.

I am certain. The "god" who painted in that period is the "human" who paints now. Gao Fan nodded.

"But as I said before, the curators and art consultants expressed their appreciation, because you are actively exploring new paths for modern art, and they are very willing to acquire and collect your new works." Lawrence said.

heh~

Gao Fan laughed.

"As long as they are satisfied~" Gao Fan twirled his armchair, which is very good, it means that Gao Fan, as a "human being", had some of his works displayed in the Metropolitan Museum. For Gao Fan, who is eating and waiting to die, this is a future that he dare not even dream about.

In terms of the expressive force of the works, Gao Fan's "concentration" is of course not as good as Degas' "life" and "contrast", but groundbreaking is groundbreaking, and there is no distinction between artistic works in terms of artistry. Lu Guoying's circle Once the branch of fusion classicism comes out, it can also be called a master, standing side by side with Degas and Picasso.

In addition, Gao Fan can imitate Degas, can Degas imitate Gao Fan? Of course not, in the art world, dead artists are more valuable, but living artists have more say.

Since it is satisfied, the Metropolitan Museum will acquire this work by Gao Fan.

In the end, this work was named "Portrait of Ana Armas", and it will be collected in the Metropolitan Museum together with "Blindness" and "Madness" in Gaofan's "Mask" group paintings, as a part of Gaofan's creative career. style witness.

As for Gao Fan, he continued to copy the famous masterpieces in the museum in the extended studio of the Metropolitan Museum. This will all help his 'focus' skills.

In less than half a month, Gao Fan's 'focus' skill has been improved to 10/100.

This filled him with a sense of gain and satisfaction.

His happiness can be seen spontaneously in his demeanor, like a layer of fat from overeating, so that everyone around him can feel it.

Of course, Anna also quickly mastered 'concentration'. In terms of learning ability, Anna is unparalleled in the world, but God (not referring to the black cat) also closed a window on her. She cannot create her own master skills , she can only follow.

When she was an assistant to George Baselitz, her skills had already surpassed the master, but she still chose to perfectly imitate the style of George Baselitz's works for creation. She has become accustomed to such a role and is used to follow.

When Gao Fan was practicing 'concentration', he found that Anna seemed to have caught up with him in this skill.

So the two people acted as models for each other, and when they drew a work that was completely different from the two people, but it was exactly the same as their own, they laughed and began to look for various small details in order to improve their skills. This is very interesting. Also useful minigames.

It takes a long time to create a themed oil painting using the technique of 'concentration'. Gao Fan spent nearly half a month on Anna's portrait. If you are painting a scene, you need to observe for a long time. With the improvement of skill value, the creation speed It will also increase, but in any case it will not be like 'distortion', it is possible to create super fast creation by accurately grasping the characteristics of the target soul.

Another month passed.

The "Portrait of Gao Fan" created by Anna with the technique of "concentration" is finally completed.

She looked at this work, it is different from 'distortion', 'distortion' is bombarded with information and emotions, allowing the person depicted to accept the baptism of reason, but Anna's painting at the moment is ordinary but real.

There is magic in the truth, which does not look like it on the surface, but in fact there are countless details proving that this is the magic of Gao Fan.

"AA, sometimes I really envy your talent." Gao Fan looked at the painting, he sighed.

The talent of Ana Armas is terrifying.

Gao Fan worked hard and spent fifteen months, almost forcing himself to death to create the technique, which she learned easily.

"I will admire your groundbreaking, Gao, you have created a great technique." Anna said.

"Ha~ The business bragging is over, let's continue~"

Gao Fan seemed to be a child who got a new toy. Although he only slept for a few hours these days and had no memory of what he ate, he felt that he could continue to draw for another ten days and ten nights. no problem.

"We next..."

Gao Fan didn't finish his sentence.

Suddenly there was a loud bang outside the window.

The huge explosion made the glass of the studio tremble and collide, while Gao Fan and Anna heard a humming sound in their ears. They looked at each other and fell into a daze for a moment. What happened? Immediately, they ran out of the studio, out of the Metropolitan Museum, and together with countless panicked tourists, stood on the street in front of the museum, looking to the sky.

Over there, black smoke billowed in the sky, a huge column of smoke shot straight into the sky, and a large number of flames were wrapped in thick smoke, like the fangs that demons would occasionally show.

"Oh my God, that's the Empire State Building!" someone screamed.

"Another 911?!" A second scream rang out.

911... The Empire State Building... Gao Fan connected everything through these two words, and immediately understood what happened. Is it an airplane? Is it a terrorist attack?

But inexplicably, Gao Fan remembered the curse that the Angel of Doom had cast on his art exhibition a year ago, "Meteor Falling", was he late?

At this time, Gao Fan saw a thin young man on the side of the road, suddenly ran towards this side frantically, unbuttoning his clothes while running, and shouting loudly: "Stop what you are doing to us!" Intervene! Otherwise the Buddha will punish you!"

What... Gao Fan saw at a glance that this thin young man had a row of cube-shaped objects tied to his open clothes. The investigator with a height of 79 points was not sealed by a curse. He immediately thought of the explosives in the movie...

"Go!" Gao Fan yelled at the crowd, he pulled Anna back and yelled, "Go!"

No one knew what Gao Fan was yelling about.

And after Gao Fan dragged Anna for more than ten meters, he felt another violent explosion sound from behind, followed by a huge shock wave hitting his back. The power was so great that he felt as if Hit by a truck, he and Anna flew into the air...
