Chapter 396 Realistic Painting
Cen Xiyan was so tired of Cen Xifen at this moment.
It's just a twelve or thirteen years old. If it were in modern times, children of this age would just learn, play wildly, and enjoy the children favored by their parents and elders.
Why did these ancient people become so precocious? At such a young age, playing with these intrigue methods not only loses their innocence, but also has a distorted soul, which makes people unable to look directly at them!
Cen Xiyan picked up the teacup, took a sip of hot tea, then put down the cup, and said, "Okay, since the eighth sister suggested that I paint, I will listen to the proposal and draw a pair."
After hearing Cen Xiyan say this, Jin Muchen's face suddenly showed expectation, Sang Qing's eyes flashed slightly, and there was also a light of expectation in his eyes.
Cen Hongmian didn't know whether Cen Xiyan really knew how to draw, and he was a little worried, but he soon remembered the carriage drawings she drew for Mo Junxuan and Mo Junfei. Although the drawings were different from paintings, her precise technique should... have some basic skills, right? I thought of this, I felt a little relieved.
Cen Xiqin was not worried about Cen Xiyan at all. The longer she spent with Cen Xiyan, the more she felt that this sixth sister was not simple. Therefore, she now blindly admired Cen Xiyan and felt that she was omnipotent.
Jin Fang looked at Cen Xiyan, and her eyes were really worried. Cen Xiyan replied with a faint smile, reassuring her.
Other people either didn't care at all, were absent-minded, or watched the show, and looked different. Cen Xiyan was too lazy to think about what these people were thinking.
Cen Xiyan did not rush to start writing, but called a maid who was serving her next to her and whispered a few instructions.
After hearing this, the maid nodded and agreed, and turned around and left.
Several people with good ears showed a slightly surprised expression when they heard Cen Xiyan's instructions to the maid, and they didn't know what she wanted to do.
Cen Xifen endured it, but couldn't help it. He said, "Don't Sister Liu want to paint? Why don't you draw?"
She was not willing to let go of the opportunity to attack Cen Xiyan! Humph! Although her painting skills were average, she also had the excellent painting skills of "Plum Snow Picture" in front of her. She didn't believe it. Cen Xiyan, a wild girl who grew up in the countryside, could she surpass Cen Xihan, a famous talented girl in the capital?
Cen Xiyan glanced at Cen Xifen and said, "Young sister doesn't have to worry about me anymore. I'd better think about yourself. Are you writing poetry and painting? Or accepting punishment."
When Cen Xifen heard this, her face suddenly became ugly because she lost again because of this game!
She couldn't write poems, could not draw pictures, and was unwilling to punish her. She clenched her fists, bit her lips, and thought about it hard.
Soon, the maid brought everything Cen Xiyan wanted.
A piece of jade paper, a complete set of pens from small to large size, and a pair of scissors.
When everyone saw these things, they were a little surprised. Why did they use jade paper? Don’t you use rice paper to draw? Why do you need so many strokes? Just draw a plum picture, how many types of pens are used? And scissors, what are you using?
Only Cen Hongmian, when he remembered Cen Xi rock paintings and carriage drawings, he used jade paper, and he couldn't help but feel a little moved. However, he couldn't see what other things she was going to use for.
Cen Xiyan stood up, moved to the painting table, picked up the pens, looked at them one by one, then took out two models that they thought were suitable, picked up the scissors, and two "click, click" and then cut off the cutters of the pen and turned into a flat-headed pen.
Her behavior was stunned by everyone in the room.
Jin Muchen came to his senses and couldn't help but ask curiously: "Miss Cen Liu, what are you doing? Why do you want to cut off the pen tip?"
Cen Xiyan replied lightly: "What is the use? It's hard to explain clearly now. When I use it, you will naturally know."
After hearing what she said, everyone should not ask again.
Cen Xifen curled her lips secretly and muttered disdainfully, "It's mysterious!"
Cen Xiyan heard it, but he didn't care what she said at all.
After getting ready, Cen Xiyan picked up the brush and started painting while looking at the cold plums and snow outside the window.
She writes skillfully and calmly. Anyone with a discerning eye can tell that this is a person who has been holding a paintbrush for a long time.
Seeing this, Cen Xifen suddenly became nervous. This wild girl in the countryside doesn’t really know how to draw, right?
Even Cen Xihan couldn't help frowning slightly at this moment and tightened the handkerchief in his hand.
The others also turned their attention to Cen Xiyan's painting paper.
They have never seen painting on jade paper. But when they saw Cen Xiyan's painting method, everyone's eyes were even more surprised. What kind of painting method is this? I have never seen it before!
Of course they would never have seen it. Cen Xiyan’s paintings are not traditional Chinese paintings, but watercolor paintings!
She used the dry painting method, and used the layer coating method to color the dry foundation color, without seeking the penetration effect, and was calmly colored over and over again, clearly showing the body structure and rich color layers.
Moreover, the dry painting method reflects more than the word "dry". The picture will still make people feel full of moisture and wet marks, avoiding dry and boring problems, but it can better show that the outline and bright colors of the drawing scenery are clear.
Watercolor paintings are very different from Chinese paintings.
Chinese paintings emphasize the meaning first, the brush is based on the brain, and the meaning is important and the meaning is vivid, which means that they pay more attention to freehand style and artistic conception.
Watercolor paintings pay more attention to realism and the use of light and color, and even create the principles of perspective, anatomy and color. The basic method is to use the focus perspective method to create a three-dimensional space on the plane.
Compared with the two, of course it is hard to say which painting method is better. It should be said that each has its own advantages and each has its own beauty.
But if you turn to realistic, which one looks more like a real object at first glance, of course, watercolor painting is better.
Cen Xiyan knew that no one knew how to draw watercolors except her in this time and space, so this novel and more vivid painting method would definitely surprise everyone.
In fact, Cen Xiyan chose to paint watercolors because he took advantage of this kind of amazement at the fresh painting method and realistic picture sense.
Since she started painting, she certainly had to show some real skills that could not be looked down upon by people. Although she didn't care about the so-called talent, she did not want to live behind Cen Xihan.
Maybe it was because of the relationship between Zhao and Cen Hongyu. Even though Cen Xihan had not caused trouble for her, Cen Xiyan couldn't like this Miss Cen Si, especially when she saw Cen Xihan's seemingly invisible tricks and tricks.
