Chapter 180 Breakthrough of techniques

As Boss Chen helped him get the approval document, the money was transferred to the orphanage account, and after the modernization renovation construction was put on the agenda.

Gu Weijing had already received a prompt that the system experience value reached the account a few days ago.

The full 3,000 free experience points made him feel satisfied that the poor are suddenly rich.

He is not in a hurry to point out his experience value for this period.

First of all, Gu Weijing still needs to leave some experience value for the use of calligraphy and painting identification techniques.

Secondly, he hadn't actually figured out how to allocate this experience value.

There are less free experience points of more than three thousand points, but not more. If you really want to plan it casually, nothing will be left.

Among the few feasible options in the virtual panel, the first one that was excluded was to water [Miscellaneous · Baiyishu].

This hundred art tree that can produce miscellaneous painting skills is as precious as a shaking tree that can drop gold, silver and treasures in myths.

For art students, "legendary" painting skills may be more valuable than real money.

Unfortunately, it is also a bottomless pit that devours experience.

It takes thousands of experience points to water once, and there is only a "probability" to grow new branches.

The 3,000 experience points he had finally accumulated were gone after pouring them three times. The harvest was not sure, and it was very likely that the bamboo basket would be useless.

Gu Weijing can't afford to play with this sapling for the time being.

All that remains is the painting panel.

Among the five major items of painting, Gu Weijing now needs to use the most is Chinese painting, sketching and oil painting.

His Chinese painting is relatively weak, and sketching is the foundation of versatility in the field of painting and other types of painting. Oil painting techniques are nourished by the primary treasure chest, and most of the professional first-level experience bars have filled.

If you give oil paintings in a tilt, you should be able to directly break through to the second level of profession.

It is precisely because the choices look much better that Gu Weijing is a little hesitant.

"What's wrong?"

Sakai Katsuko felt the pause of the people around her, turned her head, moved her wrist slightly, and asked with a chuckling, "Are you tired?"

The girl stretched slightly.

In order to find a suitable angle from the window to observe the orphanage, the space of the concierge hut was originally limited, and when they copied, they had to use standing postures to draw.

It has been a lot of time since I started copying it.

Katsuko Sakai went to the beach to swim this morning, and accompanied Mrs. Sakai to spend time with her jadeites at noon and evening. But until now, she is in good spirits and doesn't feel tired at all.

Tacit understanding, warmth, joyful, and a little sweetness,

Professor Ichise Sakai has beautifully viewed property with brightly lit professional studios in Nagoya, Tokyo, Monaco and Provence in southern France.

In the large studios that Shengzi once used to, the lighting systems purchased for filling lights to simulate various natural light were worth tens of thousands of dollars.

But she felt that there was no such a simple hut with only two gas lamps, which was in line with her wishes.

This is simply the happiest painting process Sakai Katsuko has ever experienced. She hopes that the painting will be larger and that time will be solidified at this moment and will never end.

"Light?" Gu Weijing said softly, "Light is not enough to have God."

"You mean candlelight."

Katsuko Sakai is worthy of being a painting genius. Her copying speed is slightly faster than Gu Weijing, who has made great progress with the help of the system during this period.

Gu Weijing had just finished painting the background color and the distant sky on the canvas of the Scriptures, and she had already painted the main details of the church.

She thought for a moment and then knew the meaning of Gu Weijing's words.

She inserted her brush into the medium water cylinder for cleaning, took the other party's palette from Gu Weijing, held it to her forehead, looked at the sky outside through the smooth plastic board, and looked at the canvas in front of her.

"Actually pretty good..."

Sakai Katsuko twisted the flame of the gas lamp to the brightest, moved a little in front of him, comparing Gu Weijing and his pigments in the fire.

As emergency lighting without conditions,

Compared to cold light flashlights or incandescent lamps that can easily reach brightness of thousands of flow rates, the lighting capacity of gas lamps is weaker, but the color temperature is warmer, which is more in line with daily natural light.

Therefore, the view of the canvas under the gas lamp is similar to that of the view of the sun, and the picture drawn is not easily distorted.

"I'll help you see, is that OK?" Sakai Katsuko tilted her head.

After obtaining Gu Wei's consent, she took her oil painting knife and dipped it in a little pearl white and applied it on the palette for a while. She then scraped it on the painting board with a clean small brush, and finally shook her head.

"If I configure it, the color will be brighter. Maybe more linseed oil is added to the diluent, but... there is no essential difference... This is actually very accurate."

Miss Shengzi shook her head helplessly.

"Just accuracy is not enough." Gu Weijing also shook his head.

"I understand, I understand Gu Jun's meaning very much, but the candlelight itself is difficult to draw, and the colored glass is even more difficult to draw. The continuous color light formed by these two together is too difficult to grasp. It's not your fault. It's not just a matter of grasping pigments." Sakai Katsuko said.

Her experience in painting oil paintings is slightly more than Gu Weijing. Even if she has a more accurate grasp of light, she still does not have the magic of turning stones into gold.

Stained glass was once known as the art of the Kingdom of God in the Middle Ages because of its variability.

In the 12th century, the French king decided to build the famous Saint Denis Cathedral as a place for worship and slept. The then dean of Sure decided to fill the building with the glory of the kingdom of heaven to enhance the spiritual link between the individual and the gods, so that mortals walk inside the building as if they were walking in the kingdom of God.

For the first time in history,

Large areas of stained glass have been used in the architecture, and the Cathedral of St. Denis has also become a landmark representative work in the history of architecture, and is still synonymous with the magnificent and complex French architecture.

As a medium that separates human beings from the divine realm of heaven,

Even those experienced great painters have to consider it again and again before starting their writing when facing the stained glass windows.

It is not like what many people think that a whole piece of large glass is directly made. However, when it is produced, two types of metal salts, manganese and cobalt, will slowly deform, change the light transmittance, and finally form translucent small glass of different colors.

The craftsman then cut these small glasses into hundreds of knuckles or the size of a baby's palm as needed, and then dipped them together with molten lead and spliced ​​them into patterns on the window.

The special category of stained glass painters was even born. George Ruo, a great oil painter who was famous for his ethereal brushwork in the 19th century, was an apprentice in glass painting.

Katsuko Sakai looked at the window in the old church of the orphanage not far away, gently shining the hair on her forehead to the back of her head, looking a little regretful.

She knew that with their current techniques, it was impossible to accurately express these colors.

There are no two identical feathers in the world, nor two identical stained glass windows.

Hundreds of different glasses are like hundreds of different pigment colors.

Because of the limited early glass production process and the different production batch furnaces, each piece of small glass may be unique.

The two pieces of glass next to each other may be emerald green or crimson, which looks similar, but the light transmittance will still change extremely slightly.

"I actually didn't draw the candlelight here well, it's a pity that such a scenery." Sakai Katsuko looked at her canvas, not knowing whether she was comforting Gu Weijing or herself.

The candlelight makes painting more difficult.

Candles are not a stable projection light source.

Its flames will jump, flicker, big and small, and float in a vague way.

Combined with stained glass, the painter wants to accurately copy its color, just like throwing an apple on the side of the road and accurately passing through the speeding car. The acrobatic clown throws the garland in the air.

Such complex and colorful colors are even less than half a palm-sized, and it is simply impossible to complete the task.

She also spent a lot of thought on the color of this part.

The result after completion...it cannot be said that the drawing was bad, but it can only be considered unsatisfactory.

On the canvas in front of you, Katsuko Sakai used extremely thin and thin brushwork to dye the luster of the candle bit by bit, and it looked erratic enough.

But he lacks some flexibility.

It is a painting, but not a flame.

The pursuit of painting is to draw three-dimensional impressions on two-dimensional planes and tell four-dimensional stories.

The paintings of ordinary excellent painters are just paintings, while the paintings of first-class masters are committed to creating a real space in the eyes of the audience based on changes in focus and visual proportions.

The works of truly top masters are a flowing feast.

In the classical period when entertainment was scarce, the male and female nobles in the upper class watched art exhibitions and sculptures, just like the young people today watched movies.

The most sought-after works are always works with a sense of time. They will "move" and will tell you stories.

Watching "The Eighty-Seven Gods" is like attending a gathering of immortals in the Piaomiao Immortal Palace, watching "The Mountain Residence of Fuchun" is like stepping into the water and sand green peaks, traveling around the mountains and rivers. Watching "The Rise of Venus in the Sea" is like seeing a song and dance of a beautiful god, watching "Mourning Christ" is like witnessing a religious enlightenment baptism...

Katsuko Sakai looked at the candlelight he drew on the canvas and sighed regretfully.

Her own skills remain at the part of "copying on paper", and the painting is still two-dimensional.

The paintings are just very similar, and the candlelight is not three-dimensional enough. There is a big gap between them, whether from the real world in front of you or the agile feeling written by the female painter Carroll.

Not to mention, let the souls of the senior master come alive from her writing.

Sakai Katsuko looked at Gu Weijing beside her and kept staring at the canvas, motionless, a little worried.
