"So be it." Xu Huo took a sip of tea and turned to look out the window. There was a graffiti on the wall across the street, which showed the backs of two old men walking together. The painting was very simple, using only a few words.
Pen, but very vivid.
Of course, this is just a very ordinary graffiti. The reason why passing tourists stop here is entirely because of the "Solan Painting" sign standing next to it.
"Has Master Solan painted many paintings in this town?" Xu Huo asked casually.
The boss smiled and nodded, "Before little Solan officially started painting, she would paint whatever she saw, regardless of the brushwork. She would paint how others painted. She only started to officially paint oil paintings when she was twenty years old.
After ten years of painting and becoming famous, all subsequent paintings are very popular, and even the paintings before becoming famous have also become more popular."
As he spoke, he pressed the watch terminal he was wearing and showed Xu Huo the photos he took, "I have seen these with my own eyes."
Xu Huo looked at it carefully, and after listening to his thoughts about the paintings, he said: "These paintings seem a little different from different angles."
"You are right," the boss said, "What kind of flowing paint has been popular in recent years? It is said that masters can use this paint to paint the feeling of living things. I have seen it, but it is nothing more than tampering with the paint.
It prevents the painting from solidifying in a short period of time, and even more powerfully, it can simulate the action of a person blinking his or her eyes, but that’s nothing. If we want to see moving paintings, why don’t we watch a holographic movie?”
"Painting is painting, it is fixed on the drawing paper and canvas."
"But Xiao Solan's paintings are different. When you look at the people he painted, no matter which angle you look at, the eyes of the people in the paintings seem to be looking at you." The boss pointed to a figure painting, "Especially this one.
Such a 'smile', I feel his emotions are different every time I see him."
The "smile" he was talking about was a painting of an old man covering his lips. Because the lower half of his face was covered, the focus was on his eyes. When I first looked at this painting, I felt that the old man was crying with joy, and there seemed to be tears in his eyes, but
Looking more closely, I feel that the emotions of the people in the painting should not be so single. Similarly, looking at it from different angles, I have different understandings of the people in the painting.
This painting will not move. The reason why different people can feel different emotions is mainly due to the painter's superb skills and a good understanding of people's facial micro-expressions. Therefore, whether this painting is said to be joy,
Whether it's sad or there are other emotions, it all depends on the viewer's perspective and life experience.
Just by looking at this painting, you can get a glimpse of Master Solan's accomplishments in painting. It is not surprising that each of her paintings can be sold at a high price.
"This painting is very touching. Even a person with little experience like me can feel it," Xu Huo said and looked across the street. "I just didn't expect that Master Solan, who is so full of emotions, can also be so childlike.
.”
The boss smiled again, "No matter how powerful an adult is, he or she grows up from a child. When little Solan came to my house for the first time to buy bread, he couldn't even push the door open. When he was angry and anxious, he tried so hard that he was hit by the door.
Sitting on the ground, I thought she was going to cry, but I didn't expect that she patted her pants, stood up, and told the door not to do this next time."
Xu Huo also found it interesting, "So you won't close the door now."
"Yes," the boss said, "This was little Solan's suggestion. She said that just because adults are the ones paying for bread, we shouldn't ignore children's feelings. The reason why eyes move is that people have to look up and down.
Have to look down."
Xu Huo raised his eyebrows slightly, "That's very insightful."
"No," the boss expressed his love for Solan. "She was less than two years old at that time. Not to mention how cute she was when she said this."
"It's a pity that she only lived to be in her early 100s and died earlier than me, an old guy."
Although he had already learned about Solan's life in advance, Xu Huo still continued: "Master Solan officially started painting when he was twenty years old. She has painted thousands of paintings in her life. She has to paint one painting almost every month.
Okay, every one of them is a masterpiece, it’s really a rare talent.”
For this data, it sounds like fantasy.
Solan became famous at the age of thirty, and every painting she painted after that was sought after and sold for a very high price. This was not a practice manuscript, nor was it used as a bridge for some kind of invisible transaction. Each of her paintings
They are all recognized by others, and they are not limited to a certain theme. She is proficient in almost all themes and can convey strong personal emotions.
Painting may not be that difficult. What is difficult is the conception of the painting. What is even more difficult is maintaining such high productivity for decades and hundreds of years. The word genius is somewhat eclipsed in front of her.
However, what Xu Huo was thinking had been questioned decades ago, and they even coerced Solan by reporting the crime to prove that the paintings she sold were all painted by her own hands. Although this incident ended with Solan disclosing her own
The painting process produced several new paintings as a result, but it is enough to show that even in Area 019, which is full of evolved people, one would doubt that this is something that humans can do.
In District 019, robots and specially developed painting instruments are equipped with superb painting skills, and they can pick up any genre at their fingertips. However, everyone who appreciates and buys paintings thinks that the things painted by the machine are exquisite, but lack emotion.
Solan's paintings are incomparable. Some of her paintings can even make people cry on the spot. This is the so-called spiritual resonance.
"Maybe it's because the brain has evolved differently." The boss was very sensible about this topic, "Everyone drinks the evolution agent, and different people have different effects. Little Solan is particularly good at painting."
Yes, under the premise that all people become evolvers, geniuses are no longer rare.
"Why did Master Solan choose oil painting?" Xu Huo said, "I think her graffiti is also very beautiful."
"I don't know about this," the boss recalled. "It seems that she suddenly likes oil painting. She used to pick up a rock and paint it."
When the conversation was almost over, Xu Huo picked up the wrapped bread and left the shop, and continued walking forward.
The tour group that just came in was stopping in front of a stone carved with flowers. The tour guide said in a passionate voice: "This stone was moved back from the wild by Master Solan when she was ten years old. At that time, she and her friends in the town
When they went to play in the mountains, they happened to encounter a rolling rock. Although the rock did not hurt them, it still had a certain impact on Master Solan."
"After thinking about it for three days, she moved the stone back to the town and carved these flowers with her friends, because she thought that if the stone was left in place, she would only feel scared whenever she recalled it, but she
Bring the stone back and carve it with flowers, and the stone will no longer be scary, and the terrible memories will go away. This is the famous Solan quote - Covering fear with beauty, people will have the courage to face fear countless times."
"Master Solan is such a warm person," one tourist said.
