Treasure Hunt all over the World

Chapter 1398 A painter full of fighting spirit

The person who greeted Ye Tian was a Caucasian man in his twenties, with curly chestnut hair hanging loose, holding a paintbrush in his hand, and spots of oil paint can be seen everywhere on his clothes, he looks like an artist!

Apparently the guy was a young painter who made a living painting in the square.

His painting booth was three or four meters away on the right. In front of the booth stood a wooden easel and folding chairs. On the easel was a half-painted work, and beside it were seven or eight paintings for sale.

While greeting Ye Tian, ​​the buddy's eyes were full of anticipation.

This buddy knew very well that Ye Tian was not only a professional treasure hunter, but also a top expert in appraising antiques and works of art, with a notoriously sharp eye!

More importantly, he is also a super rich man, a super buyer and seller in the art market, countless works of art have passed through his hands, and many of them are top-notch works of great value!

If Ye Tian could take a fancy to his paintings and buy a few of them, it would not only solve his current predicament, but even make him a hit and become famous!

Because of this, this buddy took the initiative to greet Ye Tian, ​​trying to use this method to gain a chance.

Ye Tian turned to look at the young painter, nodded with a smile and said:

"Good morning buddy, I'm Steven, nice to meet you"

"Hello, Steven, I'm Baudouin, I'm glad to meet you too, I graduated from Haute Couture in Paris, and my current job is a painter!"

The young artist introduced himself, took two steps forward, and shook hands with Ye Tian.

"Paris high dress? It is a very good art school, known as the cradle of artists, and has been famous for a long time. If I guess correctly, those oil paintings are all your works?"

Ye Tian complimented the other party a few words, and then pointed to the oil paintings on the painting booth next to him.

"That's right, Steven, those are all my works. You are a famous expert in the appraisal of antique works of art. Needless to say, your appreciation ability, please help me to comment on my paintings!"

Baudouin nodded and said, with a hint of anticipation in his eyes.

But he, who claims to be an artist, still maintains the unique aloofness and aloofness of an artist, and his tone of speech is indifferent, even though he really wants to be praised and affirmed in his heart, and wants to use this to change his destiny!

While Ye Tian was talking to Baudouin,

The painter who was painting had put down his brush and turned to look at Ye Tian, ​​obviously wanting to hear his comments on Baudouin's works.

Since the distance was not far away, Ye Tian didn't move over. He just stood there, turned around and admired Baudouin's works carefully.

Of course, this is just a pretense, a show for others to see.

The first time he saw Baudouin's paintings, he judged the value of those paintings at a glance based on the number of halo layers on those paintings, which was extremely accurate!

I have to say that Baudouin does have some talent, and he doesn't insult the title of artist!

On those few paintings of his, you can see the charming halo, ranging from five to seven layers, which has a certain value, but that's all!

If it was placed a year ago, Ye Tian might have been moved by these paintings, and took them down, and then hoarded them, and waited for these paintings to slowly increase in value, so as to make a small profit!

But at this time, Ye Tian's appetite is already incomparable. If it is not top-level antique works of art, or works of art with huge appreciation potential, other works of art will not be able to catch his eyes!

Obviously, those few paintings of Baudouin are still far away from top-level artworks, and the potential for appreciation is also visible to the naked eye, which cannot make him fall in love with them!

Like most fields, the field of art also has a pyramid structure. There are very few artists who can reach the top, and most artists are unknown, and eventually disappear from everyone!

Even if there are outstanding talents and outstanding works, if there is no cooperation in various conditions such as the right time, place and people, it is very likely that they will be completely buried and no one will know!

A genius like Van Gogh, who was impoverished during his lifetime and became a top art master after his death, is considered very lucky. How many such people are there?

What's more, there are relatively average painters like Baudouin all over the world. How many of them can finally become famous?

If they don’t make a name for themselves, even if their paintings are quite good and have a certain artistic value, the antique art market will not recognize them, and they will not be able to sell at high prices, and they are likely to fall into their hands!

After pretending to appreciate it, Ye Tian smiled and said:

"I don't dare to comment, Baudouin, just a few words, I like your realistic painting style, the layout and composition of the painting are very reasonable, and the scenery you paint is also beautiful!

But in my opinion, your lines are still a bit stiff, it would be better if it could be softer, and the use of color is also a bit lacking, there is still room for improvement!

Of course, this is just my personal perception, and it may not be correct. Just take it for granted, if you think what I said is wrong, then don’t take it seriously, creation is your own business after all! "

Hearing these words, Baudouin was silent for a moment, and then turned his head to look at his own works, his face was a little ugly!

The middle-aged painter next to him took a deep look at Ye Tian, ​​with admiration in his eyes.

Obviously, this middle-aged painter is very aware of the shortcomings of Baudouin's paintings, but it is just inconvenient to say for some reason, so as not to take too much effort!

After a while, Baudouin looked back at Ye Tian again, then said with a wry smile:

"You are right, Steven, my painting techniques still have many flaws, and there is a lot of room for improvement and improvement. I will definitely think about it later!

May I take the liberty of asking a question here? If you were to price or value these few paintings of mine, what price would you give? I'd love to hear it! "

"Well, Baudouin, with all due respect, if I were to make a valuation, the highest of these paintings of yours would not exceed 5,000 euros, and the lowest would be around 2,000 euros!

If you take my advice and improve your lines and colors and hone your drawing skills, I'll add a zero to this estimate! "

Ye Tian said with a smile, giving his valuation and suggestions.

"Ah! The maximum is only five thousand euros. It seems that I really think too much of myself!"

Baudouin said with a wry smile, with a slightly embarrassed expression, and a bit of dissatisfaction in his eyes.

Next, Ye Tian looked at the several oil paintings on the painting booth in front of him, then said goodbye and left, leading Betty to an antique booth not far away!

Looking at the backs of Ye Tian and the others leaving, Baudouan resentfully said in a low voice:

"Fortunately, I didn't sell my paintings to Steven just now, otherwise I would be ashamed. I actually want to make a lot of money from this guy. It's really fantastic!"

Hearing this, the middle-aged painter next to him immediately said:

"Dude, you think too much, this guy Steven is absolutely impossible to patronize our art booth and buy our paintings, if it is not top-level antique art, it is difficult to impress this greedy guy.

Just look at what he did in Paris, how many of the works of art he fancy are not top-notch? Corot, Picasso, Gauguin, etc., every name is like a thunderbolt! "

When saying these words, the tone of the middle-aged painter was quite lonely, with a feeling of a hero's twilight.

Baudouin next to him was different. After a short period of depression, his eyes were rekindled with blazing flames and full of fighting spirit. Perhaps this was the difference between a young man and a middle-aged man!

The middle-aged painter was right, if it wasn't for the top antique works of art, Ye Tian wouldn't be able to impress Ye Tian at all, let him make a move for it!

Ye Tian, ​​who was standing in front of the antique booth, discovered such a top-notch antique artwork at this moment, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes!

However, what he pointed at was a painting of little value.

"Good morning, buddy, this impressionist oil painting looks okay, what's the price? If the price is right, I'm interested in buying it!"

Ye Tian pointed to an impressionist oil painting and said, with a bright smile on his face.
