Soul Painter

When Feng Yuan came in.

Gao Fan is copying a "Thousand Characters in Cursive Script".

This is the work of Huizong Zhao Ji, and Gao Fan knew it.

Compared with Wei Bei and Tang Kai, Gao Fan is more interested in this one. This is an extracurricular homework he left for himself. Except for the three inscriptions, which were completed according to Feng Yuan's requirements, Gao Fan found them in the bookstore at other times. A circle of book stickers, this is my second favorite.

Feng Yuan stood behind Gao Fan, watching him silently.

In just three days, Gao Fan's pen-holding wrist is still not quite standard. His wrist is a little floating, and his standard movements are also somewhat deformed when he uses the pen.

However, they are all cats, and the momentum is right.

Feng Yuan noticed that the main point of Gao Fanlin's post was on 'continuity'. Although the writing was very obscure, what Gao Fan first ensured was that the strokes would be continuous. One mistake, it doesn't matter, just skip it , and then extend it further, the most important thing is that the breath cannot be broken.

But in the end, only nearly 100 were written.

Thousand Characters, hence the name Siyi, has 1,000 texts in total.

Gao Fan barely managed to write 100, but he was completely unsustainable, the 'qi' was completely lost, and the stroke of the pen turned into a ball of 'ink pig'.

With meat but no bones, it is called "ink pig".

Gao Fan shook his head, threw this one away, and prepared to move on to the next one.

"What did you feel in Huizong's cursive script?" Feng Yuan asked suddenly.

Gao Fan was obviously taken aback, and turned around in surprise.

Strong inspiration, not low in mysticism, and a bit high in investigative skills, he can be stood behind him without realizing it, which shows that he is completely immersed in calligraphy.

"Mr. Feng~" Gao Fan smiled when he saw Feng Yuan.

Feng Yuan always felt that Gao Fan's smile was a little erratic, with a weird sense of jumping. This young man's eyes were shining, as if his thoughts were constantly exploding.

About this piece of "Thousand-Character Essay", Gao Fan said: "It is very beautiful, like a symphony. The person who composes this music has a passion like a long river and a waterfall in his chest. In his writing, everything will come naturally. The vision is too strong, you can have an overview of everything and control everything.”

"Except that Huizong is not suitable to be an emperor, he has done a good job in other things." Feng Yuan sighed, and at the same time, he saw another sticker on Gao Fan's desk, which was also a thousand-character text, and the author was Huizong Zhao Ji, but But it is a thousand-character text in thin gold style.

"Since you bought it, why don't you try this?" Feng Yuan said.

"This can't be done." Gao Fan honestly said that the thin gold style thousand-character text is his first favorite word sticker.

"This is like the words of the ancient army with thousands of horses and horses." Gao Fan pointed to Huizong's "Thousand Characters in Cursive Script".

"It's like a modern army interspersed with small units, attacking together, but with the same goal. I can't achieve this sense of coordination." Gao Fan pointed to the "Thousand-Character Essay in Thin Gold Style".

"Haha~" Feng Yuan laughed, because he thought this metaphor was wonderful. The young man in front of him had an astonishing sensitivity to calligraphy, no, or rather to the art of calligraphy and painting.

"Let me teach you how to write this "Thousand Characters in Cursive Script". Put aside the thin gold body first. Even for you, it is too early. In fact, cursive script is also early, but since you only have ten days, let's take a look. See what you can do, if you want to read the "Thousand Characters in Cursive Script", you should memorize the three sentences 'invigorate your mind, keep beating, and never get tired of writing'..."

...

Next, it took Gao Fan three days to read "Thousand Characters in Cursive Script".

On the sixth day, Gao Fan began to receive fine brushwork training with Feng Yuan's affirmation.

Meticulous brushwork and freehand brushwork are two major schools of Chinese painting.

Meticulous brushwork seeks similarity in shape, and there are many neat ones. The founder of the Zhejiang School should be Dai Jin, an all-round great painter of the Ming Dynasty. He is proficient in landscapes, figures, insects and birds, and his paintings are magnificent. It also incorporates the modernist painting method. The painting method first positions, outlines, and fills in colors separately. Pink and Daisy are used interchangeably, and heavy colors such as green and cinnabar must be applied to five or six layers...

At this point, we can see that it overlaps with oil painting techniques to a certain extent.

No wonder Lu Guoying asked Gao Fan to learn from Feng Yuan.

In the remaining four days, Feng Yuan asked Gao Fan to start painting fine brushwork, still copying.

But what I copied was one of Qiu Ying's "Lin Song Dynasty Paintings".

Qiu Ying was also from the Ming Dynasty. Interestingly, Qiu Ying’s initial occupation was a lacquer craftsman. Later, he learned from others and became another all-round great painter. He is omnipotent in landscapes, flowers, boundary paintings, figures, and ladies. Good at ink painting and line drawing.

And Feng Yuan asked Gao Fan to copy one of the "Paintings of the Song Dynasty", and you can tell from the name that it is Qiu Ying's copy of the Song Dynasty painting scroll.

Qiu Ying's copying can be called a masterpiece.

He also visited Zhang Zeduan's "A Picture of Shanghe at Qingming Festival" in the Song Dynasty, and then replaced all the clothes of the city's chariots, horses and pedestrians with the Ming Dynasty style. self-styled.

...

"Since you won't achieve anything in traditional Chinese painting, if you just want to draw analogies, you should learn more from Qiu Ying in painting. In terms of characters, you have a relationship with Huizong, but don't touch the thin gold body for the time being. You will learn "Cursive Script Thousand Characters" Wen" will do."

On the tenth day, it was time to say goodbye.

Feng Yuan exhorted Gao Fan.

"Thank you, Mr. Feng!"

Gao Fan sincerely thanked him.

Feng Yuan does not allow others to call him 'teacher', only 'sir'.

This old-fashioned title shows Feng Yuan's goal of educating people as a teacher.

From children to young people, all painters who are interested in studying can receive guidance from Feng Yuan.

No tuition fees, no thanks.

You only need to be talented and willing to shine with art.

"Take those two boxes of tea back." Feng Yuan said again.

When Gao Fan came, he carried two boxes of expensive tea leaves, which are now placed in the entrance of Feng's house, waiting for Gao Fan to take them away.

"This is not good, it's your teacher..." Gao Fan was a little embarrassed, even he felt a little embarrassed.

For the next six days, Feng Yuan spent almost every day with Gao Fan, giving advice and giving advice every step of the way. Gao Fan's 3 points of 'line' skill and 1 point of 'structure' skill proved Feng Yuan's hard work.

In the past ten days, Gao Fan did not learn basic courses such as holding and moving the brush. His handwriting, in the eyes of people who don't understand it, is still just as bad, but he is very accurate. , the nutrients that can be absorbed, and at the same time, it also lays the foundation for further absorption in the future.

This is the role of a famous teacher, not to teach everyone the same material, but to instill different nutrition into each seedling according to its different needs.

"I have the academic funds that I have, and I can take them away after I finish my studies. It's the same as a pawn shop." Feng Yuan said with a smile, "I made an appointment with old man Lu. One person will teach one student, and who will be in ten years' time?" The students of the school have more achievements, and they are also obliged to help the other party to train the students, this is part of the agreement, you don't have to care about it."

"Where are your students?" Gao Fan asked curiously.

"It's my daughter. This girl can only curl her hair with a brush. It seems that she can't compare to you~" Feng Yuan shook his head.

...

"This is the master." After Gao Fan left Feng Yuan's house, he couldn't help feeling emotional.

After studying with Feng Yuan for ten days, he felt that his personality had been sublimated a little bit, and his SAN value had unexpectedly increased by 1 point.

Sure enough, he was close to Zhu Zhechi...Gao Fan considered the possibility of learning traditional Chinese painting from Feng Yuan, but it was unlikely, forget it.

Back at the hotel, Gao Fan packed up his things and was about to leave, when he suddenly saw the picture of "Hungry for a Thousand Miles" by his bedside.

He slapped his head: "Forget it."

It's still three o'clock~
