50, innovative painting style

() Wei Zhi is undoubtedly very curious about Wang Weixian's practice of drafting with charcoal, because painters of this era basically did not do such seemingly unnecessary things, or in other words, the style of traditional Chinese painting does not need to be too delicate.

, it pays more attention to elegance, charm and artistic conception.

But in just a moment, Wei Zhi's expression changed from curiosity to surprise, which was really rare for him who always looked cold and proud.

Just because Wang Wei quickly sketched the background with charcoal at that time, the three-dimensional realism feeling came from it. It was so realistic and so novel...

After getting used to the traditional Chinese ink painting, Wei Zhi was extremely surprised by the modern sketch-like background drawn by Wang Wei with charcoal, and he deeply admired Wang Wei's talent that seemed to come from a miracle. Of course, he didn't

We know that combining the solid painting skills inherent in his body with modern concepts is what gave Wang Wei his "magic" talent.

Of course, it took a lot of time for Wang Wei to transform his traditional painting skills into "modern" painting skills, but it has to be admitted that Wang Wei himself is really talented in painting. It seems that

The sentence he wrote himself, "The contemporary poet is a poet, and the predecessor is the painter Ying." is not a lie.

Wang Wei's painting speed is quite fast, and he can paint the background in just a moment. In fact, since there is no need to pay attention to the artistic conception and charm, he only needs to sketch the scenery. As long as a painter with solid basic skills can do this.

When painting the character of the young woman, Wang Wei detailed the young woman's clothing down to every fold, and the style of the hairpin on her head was even more delicate. In this way, the young woman looked extremely lifelike due to those details.

, lifelike, and the expression on her face is naturally that lonely smile.

Wei Zhi carefully watched an extremely realistic painting take shape under Wang Wei's brushwork. The feeling of extreme admiration accumulated in his heart. Since he was not an orthodox painter, he was not interested in Wang Wei's "emphasis on form but not on meaning".

Wang Wei's painting method was quickly accepted. If those traditional painters were to look at it, they would definitely criticize Wang Wei's painting as having no charm or artistic conception. Even if the shape is similar, so what, it is too dull and tacky.

Comparing Wang Wei's painting method with traditional painting methods is like comparing Tang poetry with Tang legendary novels. The former is a more elegant genre, while the latter is a vulgar work for entertaining the public. No matter how large the audience of the latter is, among those who are noble and noble,

In the eyes of the literati and officials, it is not worth mentioning.

If Wang Wei's paintings at this time and his original traditional landscape paintings were put out for evaluation, those painters would definitely think that Wang Wei's traditional landscape paintings were more advanced, while those who do not understand the artistic conception of Wang Wei would think that Wang Wei's traditional landscape paintings were better.

The realistic paintings are more real and moving, no worse than those so-called paintings with charming artistic conception.

This is what Wei Zhi was thinking at this time. He had never thought that this painting could actually be like this. He felt that the previous paintings of classical ladies were really weak, and they were all the same. How could they be like Wang Wei?

The young woman's paintings are all three-dimensional, as if the young woman is living in the painting.

All in all, the biggest feature of Wang Wei's paintings is that they are realistic and lifelike. There is no so-called "aura", only the peak of "craftsmanship". But I have to admit that this painting is beautiful, and beauty lies in it.

Its layering, three-dimensionality and details make the whole painting come alive.

The most detailed part of the whole painting is naturally the graceful young woman, which further highlights the status of the young woman as the main subject in the painting, while the rest of the background is to set off the characters. This is undoubtedly inconsistent with the style of traditional Chinese painting. According to traditional

This method of highlighting the characters and weakening the background undoubtedly destroys the harmonious beauty and overall artistic conception of the picture.

However, this realistic painting by Wang Wei is indeed meaningless when judged using traditional evaluation methods.

When Wang Wei finished the draft with charcoal, Wei Zhi couldn't help but admired: "Thirteenth Lang, your painting skills are really amazing. The paintings are so similar. I have never thought that this painting is still beautiful."

You can draw like this!”

Wang Wei smiled and didn't say much. He just started sketching carefully with finer lines. After having a draft, the fine brushwork became easier to control. Wang Wei himself was a master of using fine brushwork, and he used

Ink and wash are specially made for realistic paintings, but Cui Yingluo and many craftsmen put a lot of thought into it.

These inks and pigments are less likely to escape and render than traditional ones, and are more convenient to control. Otherwise, if you add color to the character background, once it is rendered, the painting will be a mess. In a sense

, the effect of Wang Wei's realistic paintings is quite similar to oil paintings, but the painting methods and pigments are completely different.

Perhaps this is the strange painting method of "combining Chinese and Western styles" and "combining ancient and modern". If this painting method becomes popular, later generations of historians and painters will definitely define Wang Wei as a master-level figure like Wu Daozi.

Wang Wei didn't care too much about his reputation in the painting world in history. He just did it for his own bad taste. When he thought of those who studied history or painting, they were surprised that Wang Wei could create such a painting method that was so different from the popular painting methods at the time.

The reason was puzzling, and he felt a sense of pleasure in tricking those people.

In the outline of the fine and fine brushwork, the layering and three-dimensionality of the entire picture are more prominent, and its degree of realism becomes more and more astonishing. Wei Zhi can no longer describe the shocking feeling in words.

When painting the entire painting, Wang Wei paid more attention to the bright and dark areas caused by sunlight, and used different paints respectively. Only then did Wei Zhi discover that the number of paints Wang Wei used was far more than

Traditional ink painting, and the advantage of doing so is that the painting is more realistic, as if the whole world has been sucked into the painting...

When the painting was finally completed, Wang Wei said to Wei Zhi again: "Yin Qing, come and write a poem for me."

Wei Zhi naturally agreed very happily. In fact, he felt that it would be an honor to inscribe poems and calligraphy on such a painting with great revolutionary significance...

But Wang Wei found it very absurd and interesting. Generally speaking, poems are written on traditional Chinese paintings. It is said that "there are paintings in poems and poems in paintings." But has anyone seen it in realistic paintings such as oil paintings?

Who wrote the poem?

It's like someone wrote a poem on the "Mona Lisa" after Leonardo da Vinci painted it... The absurd sense of time and space is so absurd that Wang Wei can't describe it in words.

After just a while, Wei Zhi's "Yi Yourong Yan" disappeared, and he felt a bit cheating. As he wrote it, he felt more and more awkward and weird. In fact, the writing of this poem is also very particular. The words are written

It has to fit the entire painting.

Therefore, he felt that his calligraphy could not be "aura", or unrestrained and freehand, otherwise, it would really not match the style of the whole painting. In order to match the style of the whole painting, his handwriting was actually very rigid.

This made Wei Zhi extremely uncomfortable. After he finished writing the whole poem, he put down his pen, looked at himself with a cold face, and reflected for a moment. He suddenly said: "Thirteenth Lang, I feel that this painting is not suitable for a poem. It is really unnecessary and superfluous."

." His tone was heavy and filled with guilt.

Wang Wei showed his unique warm smile and said leisurely and happily: "I think so too."

Wei Zhi's eyes widened, and any sense of guilt was swept away. After finding out that he had been cheated, he angrily complained: "Then you still ask me to write poems?"

Wang Wei turned away and looked at the beautiful scenery...

You actually want to fool around like this! Turn your head and answer my question, hey! You are such a bad-tempered soul! Wei Zhi looked at Wang Wei's side profile with a warm smile sadly and angrily, and cursed professionally for cheating his teammates in his heart.

guy.

After a long time, Wang Weicai picked up the dried ink and paint paintings, looked at them with satisfaction, flicked the drawing paper proudly, and said: "Actually, writing poems is quite good. Sometimes once you accept this setting,

Isn’t it quite touching?”

Wei Zhi: "Haha."

Wang Wei didn't care about Wei Zhi's cold smile. This guy looked like he was dead. He just took out his seal and stamped it. This painting "Beauty Pond Folding Willows Walking", Wang Wei

Wei himself was very satisfied. The woman wearing a dark blue gown in the painting, with just a slight smile on her face, was already breathtakingly beautiful.

This is the real beauty of the Tang Dynasty... Wang Wei thought with some sigh.

However, it seems that this painting can only be kept in his own collection. If it is seen by those painters who are obsessed with tradition, it will probably be sprayed to death. He remembers that he seemed to have seen some kind of documentary in his previous life, saying that a missionary came to China and gave

The emperor painted a realistic oil painting, but the Chinese painters thought it had no charm and artistic conception, and was dull and boring. Then missionaries learned Chinese paintings and finally gained recognition.

Seeing that his friend still had a cold face, Wang Wei was moved in his heart and said gently: "Yin Qing, in addition to this painting method, I also have a slightly exaggerated painting method."

Wei Zhi's attention was indeed attracted. He wanted to ignore Wang Wei, but he couldn't help being curious and could only say coldly: "What painting method?"

Wang Wei showed a wicked smile and replied: "Comics."

"Comics?" Wei Zhi looked confused.

"The so-called comics are of course careless paintings." Wang Wei said, while mentioning Gongbi again, "The poem goes: 'Suddenly, I turned over the ink on the desk and smeared the poems and books like an old crow', so comics can also be called comics.

Make 'graffiti'."

"Where did this poem come from?"

"Uh... don't worry about these details, just read my comics." Wang Wei changed the subject. He couldn't say that the person who wrote this poem was not born yet.

Then, with just a few strokes, Wang Wei sketched out a comic character that is very common in modern times, a little lolita, still drawn in a cute cartoon style. The appearance was based on the girl who just bumped into his arms, but

Wang Wei painted the girl's appearance very cutely. The eyes are big and round, which are completely out of proportion to the human body. But I have to admit that it doesn't look out of place at all and is quite cute...

What is this called? Cuteness is justice!
