Almighty painter

Chapter 495: Sketch’s Mission to Break the Realm

[Ding, you have obtained an intermediate treasure chest in the system! 】

Several consecutive system panel prompts came to my ears.

Gu Weijing was not in a hurry to open the box.

The rain is still falling, and the thunder has gradually become smaller.

Gu Weijing vaguely heard the sound of family members getting up and moving around next door.

So, he took a final look at the works on the canvas and summarized his thoughts and feelings about the copying process that night.

Just push the easel aside.

The Impressionists painted quickly, and he also painted for five hours.

I haven't slept, I'm a little tired, and I'm too lazy to wash my pen for the time being.

Gu Weijing squeezed a few drops of emulsifier directly into the pen washer, and threw all the used brushes into the pen holder to soak them first.

Then put the original work of "The Old Church on a Thunderstorm" in the safe and keep it away.

He stretched out a lot.

Open the door and prepare to leave.

"Awang?"

Before leaving the studio, Gu Weijing noticed that he had been copying in front of the drawing board all night, and Awang was also there facing the thunder clouds, posing various demonstration poses all night.

It seems that he is showing off his dignity enough.

At dawn, he lay there with his head on his tail, snoring a little, and seemed to be asleep.

"Well, do you want to call it Awang? Maybe skipping meals in the morning to lose weight and clear the intestines will be good for it. Now that grandpa talks about health and wellness all day long, Mao Mi can also pay attention to light fasting and keep in good health!"

Gu Weijing looked at his chubby boy.

Some movement.

Pet cats can eat up to twelve times a day.

Eat from morning to night.

However, pet doctors recommend feeding wet cat food twice a day and dry cat food once, or it is better to feed cats directly one dry and one wet.

Awang is not a domestic "child" in a pet store.

But when Mr. Wu was taking a walk, he found a black mouse in the yard, so he curled his lips and brought a newborn kitten from a colleague's house.

He has a hard-earned background and has practiced wild survival since birth, a class brother among cats.

During the more than a year that he was raised at Old Man Wu's house, he definitely didn't have the concept of feeding cats regularly and eating cat food.

The owner can chew on the leftover chicken butt.

Even if it means improving your life.

"How can a cat be motivated to catch mice when it's full? I really don't understand how someone would like to feed the cat every day when they have nothing to do. It's a total loss-making business. If you have this spare money, why not feed me." - Black Heart Shovel The old man Wu Guan said so.

Judging from the classic remarks about "squeezing and exploiting" like the big landowners of the old society who only have to be hungry to have fighting spirit, the two scratches on his arm by Awang were not too unfair.

However, after being fed by Miss Sakai for a few days, Awang was now shaking.

It is very particular and must be eaten three times a day.

Awang refused to give in when it came to eating, which was extremely annoying.

The key is to hold a grudge.

A few days ago, Gu Tongxiang claimed that Awang often beat other people's pet cats outside at noon and refused to come home.

I guess I just feel sorry for the money in the cans.

The old man secretly saved Awang's lunch.

Prepare three meals instead of two.

As a result, Gu Tongxiang took a nap that day and was drooling so beautifully that he felt as if a "heavy truck" had passed by his stomach.

Take a look.

Awang was squatting on Old Man Gu's belly, tilting his head and looking at him with an expression like "I'm so handsome, don't you think you should get up and feed me?"

Gu Tongxiang did not believe in evil and began to lock the door and take a nap.

Awang squatted when he was eating, when he was watching TV on the sofa, and when he was lying on the recliner and basking in the sun.

There is no doubt that even jumping on you suddenly is a natural way for many pet cats to express their closeness to people.

But in this matter, Gu Weijing felt that Maomao did it on purpose.

What a pity.

How could a sixty-five-year-old comrade like Gu Tongxiang, with old arms and legs, be able to withstand such a "meat bomb impact" from a fat cat weighing more than ten pounds?

In three or two days, Awang managed to make Lao Guzi very docile.

Before Gu Tongxiang was diagnosed with appendicitis or intestinal obstruction by Awang, he honestly recognized who was the oldest in the family, and resumed serving lunch to the cat owner in disgrace.

Taking into account Grandpa's past mistakes and Nga Wang's domineering bully style.

Gu Weijing didn't want to ask Awang to eat.

I was also worried that a flying cat would sit on my face in the middle of the night, so I took a compromise approach.

He walked out of the door quietly, leaving only a crack.

He walked to the cat food feeder placed in the corridor, squatted down, secretly turned off the feeding reminder bell on the screen, and then pressed the feeding button.

rustling.

A handful of anchovy meat powder dry cat food pressed into the shape of biscuits was put into the cat bowl from the canned warehouse.

If you fall asleep on your own, you can't blame anyone else.

"Awang, it's time to have breakfast."

He shouted at the smallest volume he could hear, almost breathlessly.

"Ha, I didn't hear it, but it's not that I don't feed you. Ha, it's past breakfast time, and this is lunch--"

The confident smile on the young man's face lasted only a moment.

His face froze.

Gu Weijing swore.

Only two seconds passed, maybe only a second and a half.

Before he could finish his sentence, he saw a big ginger cat lazily squeeze out from the door.

The cihuamao took a breath, grinned, and showed Gu Weijing its sharp fangs.

Gu Weijing felt that Awang really glanced at him contemptuously, as if he had understood everything that happened.

Ah.

Little Guzi, as soon as you stick your butt out, I know exactly what you are going to do.

You are still playing tricks and tricks with your cat owner.

No prospects!
Smelling the meat powder, the tabby cat turned on in a second and rubbed past Gu Weijing's feet. It lowered its head and started chewing cat food biscuits in small bites.

Only Gu Weijing was left in a daze.

"Okay, Ngawang. I was wrong. You are not a Don Quixote cat. You are a cat born to eat food. When will I be as sensitive to art knowledge as our Ngawang is to cat food?" Half... no, as long as one-third. If I can’t paint the next Picasso, it’s really unreasonable.”

Gu Weijing looked at the civet cat purring at his feet, concentrating on it without raising his head, forgetting everything he was doing.

Infinite emotion.
-
"morning."

When Gu Weijing came to the restaurant, the whole family was basically up. "I don't buy breakfast much these days. I have to do all the work." My aunt was placing a large pot of freshly steamed quick-frozen dumplings on the table and glanced at her nephew.

"It's raining a bit heavily today, forget it."

"It didn't rain very much the past few days. Hey, the children nowadays are all lazy and have to be taken care of by us adults. In the past, when I was your age, things at home were never done. …”

The aunt muttered something dissatisfied, then filled Gu Weijing's bowl with soy milk and walked back to the kitchen chatteringly.

Gu Wei turned a deaf ear to the Sutra and sat as still as a mountain.

My aunt is a typical little philistine described by Mr. Lu Xun. Her shortcoming is that she talks nonsense and likes to flatter others and put others down.

The advantage is that the philistine is very real and she is an out-and-out philistine. It is difficult to say how good her character is. She wants to do bad things, but her ability to do so is limited.

Especially when the bejeweled and aura-filled Mrs. Sakai came to visit, her aunt's worldview was shattered and completely refreshed.

The aunt learned that as long as her nephew, who was not well-known, signed a contract with an art gallery, even if he did nothing for a year, he would get a stipend of tens of thousands, which was still US dollars!

And the father of the girlfriend he hooked up is on the rich list of artists, with cumulative sales of his works exceeding US$100 million, equivalent to hundreds of billions of kyats.

This number is really impactful.

It is hard for a humble person like my aunt to imagine what it would be like to pile up 100 million US dollars.

Add up the turnover of all the shops as far as the eye can see on this street, and you won't be able to earn such a large amount of money even if you make a hundred years.

Perhaps even the local banks in downtown Yangon cannot withdraw this amount of foreign exchange reserves from their vaults.

after that day.

In fact, Gu Weijing could clearly feel that although her aunt was still dissatisfied, she thought that if Gu Lin also studied art instead of taking ordinary classes, the opportunity would be her daughter's.

Of course, from a technical point of view, it is relatively difficult for Gu Lin to pick up Ms. Sakai.

But people always have dreams!
But Gu Weijing's status in the family has actually improved a lot.

Career is a man's golden attire.

This change not only happened to grandpa, but also to him.

His uncle had obviously become much more polite to him, and rarely used the tone of a parent to discipline him anymore.

As for aunt, she still muttered unpleasantly.

But in words, words and deeds, there was also a bit of awe towards Gu Weijing, the nephew, that even the woman herself was not aware of....

Make breakfast when it's time to make breakfast.

Because there are things related to detective cats in the bedroom, Gu Weijing has been accustomed to locking the door when he goes out recently. His aunt is obviously dissatisfied with his attitude of guarding even his family members.

Before, there was probably going to be a fuss, but this time, nothing bad happened.

As for the gossip, this is my aunt's old problem for many years.

If you have a habit of listening, just treat it as air, and that will be fine.

This is the character of a petty philistine.

The stronger you are, the more the other party will respect you. Gu Weijing once thought that there would be a tit-for-tat battle between two middle-aged women with sharp tongues, Mrs. Sakai and Auntie.

result.

Professor Cruz's aura is too strong, and it is simply not the turn of a market lady of Auntie's level to fight.

Auntie could probably exchange vicious curses with a leek vendor for ten minutes over two cents.

But when you actually get in front of someone like Sakai Katsuko's mother and raise your eyes to look at her, the argument is over.

She didn't even have the courage to reply.

Gu Weijing took a sip of soy milk and bit into a bun to replenish the blood sugar and electrolytes he needed after staying up late painting.

Then open the system panel.

Check the above tips one by one.

Gu Weijing first took a look at the current technical situation.

[Character: Gu Weijing]

Technique Panel——

[Sketch technique: Level 5 of lv.9999 profession (10000/). Note: The mission to break through the border is to be completed]

[Chinese painting techniques: Level 5 of lv.9999 profession (10000/). Note: The mission of breaking through the border is yet to be completed. 】

[Oil Painting Technique: Level 5 of lv.6681 Profession (10000/)]

[Watercolor painting technique: Level 4 of lv.1876 profession (5000/)]

[Printmaking technique: lv.3 semi-professional (166/1000)]

The reason why Gu Weijing was able to understand the underlying structure of Impressionism in the process of copying "The Old Church on a Thunderstorm".

The biggest factor may not be the heavy rain outside the window.

It may not be an insight that comes from pure practice.

It may still be attributed to the substantial improvement in sketching techniques today.

Sketching is almost the lowest and most original structural technique of all modern painting techniques.

Sketching is to oil painting and watercolor what mathematics is to physics or chemistry.

It is regarded as the most widely applicable painting technique, and it is related to the way and angle in which the creator understands and views the world.

Sketching allows people to detach themselves from form and see the abstract spirit contained in lines.

That's why.

Even though impressions are mostly composed of short lines or color dots, this does not mean that they do not require line skills.

Quite the opposite.

Everything is more abstract.

Whether it is Picasso, Monet, Zhang Daqian, or Huang Binhong, they often have higher requirements for line skills.

The difference between a master and a liar is that the liar gives you an empty and helpless piece of work, made up by his mouth.

Even if the master omits the body and image of most objects, he can still grasp the most original lines.

So that one sentence hits the mark and one stroke expresses the spirit.

In the system appraisal panel of Senior Carroll, there are no shortcomings in oil painting techniques and sketching techniques.

They are all at the first level of master's arrogance.

After Gu Weijing thought about it for a while, he added a large amount of free experience points to the sketch first.

A full 6000 experience points were allocated, and the sketching technique was also added to the second level of career perfection.

After his sketching improved, he was able to copy paintings from one to two, which gave him a deeper insight into the knowledge and principles of oil painting and made breakthroughs.

Gu Weijing didn't expect the chain reaction, it was an unexpected surprise.

And as his sketching skills reached the second level of professional perfection, it was logical that the system activated the boundary-breaking mission corresponding to sketching.

【Breaking Mission——】

[Sketch, from close to precise to vast, from reality to imaginary, from pen to emotion, from limited to infinite line aesthetics. It is not only about technique, but also about individual perception, interest, observation, personality and even outlook on life. The ultimate sketch is not a sketch drawn on paper, but a sketch drawn in the heart. It is a full expression of the artist himself, allowing people to deeply understand the artist's emotions and heart. 】

[Task content: The secret of lines lies in summarizing the spirit, and the spirit flows all the time, so the lines also flow all the time. Imagine what it is like to observe the world when your heart is as cold as ice. When your mind is boiling like fire and every nerve cell is roaring and howling, what do the underlying lines that make up the world look like in your mind? Please understand this world and draw a work.

(Remarks: There is no limit to the size or form, but it needs to be related to the sketching technique, and during this period, the pointer of the emotion meter reaches the point of a wonderful pen, or continues to reach the level of hard work and perfection, for more than three minutes.)]

[Note 2: If you do not pass the system task and understand the bottleneck on your own, the system will provide you with free experience points equivalent to 6% of the total experience value of the next stage (Lv. 20 career level ) as a reward. Good luck. 】
