Soul Painter

Sixteenth day in London.

Gao Fan received a courier from Lawrence from China.

The contents of the express delivery are two magazines, "Oriental Oil Painting" and "Artist Guide".

It was the two domestic publications that Gao Fan interviewed half a month ago.

Gao Fan flipped through these two magazines. In "Oriental Oil Painting", the content of the interview with him occupies a page in the column of emerging artists, and there is a picture on the page.

In the "Artist's Guide", Gao Fan took up an entire color insert in the middle, followed by three pages of interview memorabilia.

Gao Fan looked at the photo of himself in the "Artist's Guide". In the photo, Gao Fan was sitting behind a drawing board, the sunlight came in from the window, half of Gao Fan was shining on Gao Fan, and God was standing in the shadow of the other half. This photo contrasts light and dark Deyi, showing Gao Fan's concentration, but also a little mysterious.

Very good...Gao Fan laughed.

In the e-mail that Lawrence sent by courier, he introduced that the reason why the "Artist Guide" gave Gao Fan such a large space, and even a complete coloring page, was because the female editor-in-chief thought the photo was beautiful, Gao Fan is very handsome.

"Artist Guide" was launched five days ago, and then the newspaper office received a lot of letters from fans, especially female fans. The art circle is not big, but the common feature of everyone is that they can appreciate beauty. A handsome painter, the most important thing is that he is rich enough. These characteristics together are enough to make Gao Fan popular in a small range.

Lawrence said in the letter that if Gao Fan is interested, he can arrange for Gao Fan to participate in several variety shows at the right time. It is no news that practitioners in the domestic sports and music circles have crossed borders. In the age of entertainment for all, there is no reason why the painting circle cannot cross this boundary, especially Gao Fan has such innate conditions.

But Lawrence told Gao Fan that he must not let Lu Guoying know about his idea, otherwise the old man could spray him to death with his fangs.

Finally, Lawrence asked Gao Fan, how is the creation progress? Are you sure? It is said that George Baselitz mobilized many of his favorite students to complete a magnificent masterpiece together. Although the quality of an oil painting does not depend on the size of the painting, since the ultimate goal of this commission is the church mural, the giant The creation of a picture will definitely make the judges like it more.

Lawrence was so inked that Gao Fan didn't even have the patience to finish it.

He now has difficulty reading more than one page of text.

All the words seemed to have halos in Gao Fan's eyes, blowing a loud horn, making Gao Fan unable to distinguish the meaning behind them.

However, he could stand in front of Raphael's works all afternoon, just to see which colors make up the calm and happy halo on the face of "Pink Madonna".

So after hastily reading Lawrence's letter and giving him a message of "I see", Gao Fan returned to the creation of the elk cat statue.

Although this is only a 40x60 painting, the painting process was longer than any of Gao Fan's previous works. It took 15 days just to make the base, and it would take even longer to paint after that. Gao Fan felt that he might not be able to finish it in time... ...his distortion skills are not enough, not enough for him to finish the painting within the allotted time...

Although in the past few days, due to the explosion of inspiration and the guidance of the great masters in the British Museum, Gao Fan has made progress in the three major items, each of which has reached 100, and the 'distortion' skill can be always on, 1 point skill value, can also be used by Gaofan.

However, to increase the 'distortion', for every 1 point, 30 skill points or SAN value of the three major painting items are required, which is still too much.

It is pure delusion to want to squeeze out 30 skill points from the three basic items in a short period of time.

The bonus of the engraving knife is not certified by the system. With the engraving knife, the 'distortion' skill value does not increase, which shows that at this stage, the engraving knife can no longer keep up with the progress of Gao Fan's skills.

And Gaofan's spare SAN value is also as low as 15 points, even if you throw it in, you may not be able to hear a sound.

So Gao Fan looked at himself, who still had 80 sanity points.

With the spare SAN value, there are 95 points.

Subtract 60... Well, minus 60 is too much, minus 30 still has 65 points...

Although it's not normal, he still has 10 points of mysticism, which can replenish his incomplete sanity, so he will be considered to have 75 points of sanity.

In this way, counting the improvement of the big explosion of inspiration, the skill of 'distortion' can barely be raised to 3 points.

Although 3 o'clock is not too high, it is already three times that of 1 o'clock.

In this way, in the remaining half a month, it is still possible to complete the Mi Mao portrait...

No!

This is too dangerous!

Gao Fan went to the bathroom to wash his face.

Splash cool water on your face to wake yourself up.

Because we are embracing madness all the time, we need to be more cautious.

"Obviously just hand in this sketch." Gao Fan said to himself in the mirror.

"That's right." Gao Fan replied to himself in the mirror again, "Since there is no specific genre, I only want to express beauty, this sketch version of the elk cat portrait is already beautiful enough, I distorted the viewer's vision and Hearing, so that they can hear the sound of beauty when they watch, no one can be stronger than me..."

"But, are you sure that George Baselitz is not as strong as you? Are you sure you can beat him?" Gao Fan asked himself in the mirror, "Aside from the system, what have you done for art yourself? Is hard work enough? You still need to give more, don't you?"

This is a very good reason and excuse. If you don't want to be accused, apart from the system, your pursuit of art and painting efforts are too shallow, so you shouldn't have those supreme brilliance and honor, then Gao Fan should be even more Have fun embracing art, even stepping into the abyss of madness.

Hehe~ Gao Fan smiled at himself, he almost started to add points for himself, but... No, no one knows that you have a system, and you don't have to be responsible for anyone's perception... And why do you care about others' opinions? ...you're just looking for an excuse to get stronger drawing skills...

Gao Fan looked at the dark circles under his eyes in the mirror, he still decided to wait.

At least take a nap first, and wait until your mind is clearer.

Gao Fan wiped his face.

Come out from the bathroom.

But suddenly, he felt something was wrong.

He turned his head abruptly, and saw his own tired face in the mirror of the bathroom, nothing unusual.

Kacha~

A quiet voice.

At this second, it appeared in Gao Fan's ears.

It is very clear that it is not a sound from the outside world, but a shell-breaking sound from Gao Fan's ears, heart, and mind.

Are you hallucinating?

Gao Fan shook his head, this action made him feel dizzy for a moment, he was really too tired recently, so he walked out of the bathroom.

Fell on the big bed in the hotel.

Dark, sweet sleep engulfed him almost instantly.

And Gao Fan didn't notice, and couldn't notice, when he turned around, his back should have been reflected in the mirror in the bathroom, but the strange thing is, his shadow in the mirror is still facing the world .

Gao Fan's shadow seemed to exist independently of Gao Fan, looking at the world indifferently.

God suddenly jumped to the bathroom mirror, facing the mirror, ‘Meow! ’ With a cry, his hair exploded all over his body!

See you tomorrow~ 11:00 to 20:00 tomorrow~
