Chapter 134, eye-catching works, love
On Thursday morning, in the oil painting studio, every student was concentrating on painting.

Today is the third day of the sketching course, and many students in the class have begun to lay out the tones on a large scale.

The sounds of pencils sliding across paper, erasers, and even fingers rubbing across paper all blend together, adding a special melody to the artistic atmosphere of the studio.

Jiang Zhe stood in front of the easel, gently exerting force with his wrist to let the pencil leave a line on the paper.

This line merges into a group of lines. Groups of lines gradually expand with a special rhythm, becoming virtual or real structures that just express images or movements.

Today, when he first started painting, he was a little unfamiliar with the new depiction techniques because of the size of the work. With constant adjustments, he gradually got used to using the master's brushwork to depict the structure.

After drawing a few groups of lines, he would stop and observe the plaster statue. He would not continue drawing until he understood and thought it through.

After studying the past few days, Jiang Zhe is very familiar with the head structure of the David statue. Now he observes it again when painting in order to grasp the beauty.

When he paints, he likes to think clearly before he starts to paint, to avoid hesitation and ambiguity, and to avoid mistakes as much as possible. Therefore, even if he does not paint very fast, he can still steadily advance the steps of shaping the image.

Jiang Zhe's shaping method does not involve violent smearing or excessive lines that highlight his personality. He is practicing the results of his studies in recent days without rushing or slowing down.

After painting for about an hour, he felt that he was not as energetic as before, so he stopped and took a short rest.

He used the short break to watch the work of other students in the class.

After looking at all the works, he found that most of the students were able to depict the colors in detail, but under the influence of habit, they unconsciously continued their previous painting methods, and from conscious changes, they slowly returned to the state of portraiture.

Of course, there are also a small number of students with good understanding and perseverance who can take the initiative to deal with their body shape.

Among them, Fu Min and Mou Xing's works are the best.

Fu Min has already begun to depict the facial features of the plaster statue. She uses strong and powerful lines to form large and small blocks, and uses blocks to summarize the image and strengthen the light and dark effects. This modeling method makes the image more solid.

Mou Xing has started to use rubbing brushes to make the connection of the facial structure of the plaster statues softer. He is very careful when using rubbing brushes to avoid the problem of greasy appearance on the surface.

Other students in the class will also watch the excellent works of the class during the break. They don't say anything, but some outstanding works will still receive more attention.

Jiang Zhe's works are among those that progress more slowly.

He was too rigorous when he was drafting, and his treatment of some lines was not understood by outsiders. However, today, his work is refreshing to everyone.

Regular and resilient lines often appear in the works of masters, but few students can use them skillfully. Jiang Zhe went a step further and used the master's techniques on plaster statues.

Some people appreciate it, some people don't.

No matter what others think, Jiang Zhe is very sure that his direction is correct.

Both the sketch he copied and the statue of David were from Michelangelo. The two are of the same origin, and the method he used should be more in line with the beauty of the statue of David.

Jiang Zhe rested up and continued painting.

He started with the eyes of the plaster statue and gradually carved out the details.

The facial features and faces of plaster statues all have soft parts. In fact, these parts also have structures, and the painter needs to find the right balance.

Teacher Hu walked into the studio and called the class monitor out first.

Soon, the two returned to the studio.

Han Yinfa said: "Students, please pause for a moment. Let's make an announcement."

The students put down their brushes one after another and waited for the announcement. There were stools in the classroom, but after sitting down, they could not see the monitor who was talking. Many people had been looking forward to what the monitor was going to say, so they stood and listened to the announcement.

The monitor cleared his throat and said, "You may have heard that the school is going to organize a blood donation activity soon. Our class has five spots. The specific requirements for donating are: no history of disease, no..."

After she listed a few requirements, she repeated them again before continuing, "The school will give a certain amount of subsidies to students who donate, totaling 560 yuan. Students who want to donate can sign up voluntarily. The school requires everyone to actively participate and do what they can."

Someone asked bluntly: "Class monitor, when is the registration?"

When the monitor saw Teacher Hu nod, he said, "You can start signing up now. Come register with me."

He took a pen and paper and walked to the relatively spacious area of ​​the studio.

A few impatient students immediately went over to sign up.

"Monitor, I am in good health, I will sign up."

"Class monitor, I'm signing up too."

"I regestrated."

While recording the names, Han Yin reminded the applicants: "The final result will be decided by the department. If you are not feeling well, do not participate. If you fail the physical examination, other applicants will replace you."

Seeing so many people queuing, a girl couldn't help but complain: "Is it so difficult to show our love? We still have to queue?"

Some students with calm personalities will wait until there is no need to queue before going to register.

Jiang Zhe saw that out of the 26 students in the class, at least 20 had already gone to sign up. He didn't want to argue, but if he didn't say anything at this time, people would think that his attitude was not positive, so he walked over and said to the monitor: "Monitor, I'm also signing up. However, I have a little hypoglycemia, will it affect the quality of my blood?" Upon hearing this, the monitor immediately said: "Oh, I didn't expect that you, who are so strong, would have hypoglycemia. If this is the case, I suggest you don't sign up yet. It would be bad if it affects your health."

Jiang Zhe took the opportunity and said, "If possible, I won't fight for this opportunity."

The monitor was delighted: “There are many opportunities to show your love, so do what you can.”

Jiang Zhe said regretfully: "I'll listen to you and give up this opportunity."

"Yes, there are many opportunities, and there will be more in the future." Han Yin breathed a sigh of relief.

This was her first big event after she officially became the class monitor. The school had limited places for each class, but there were too many people who signed up. Those who were not selected would inevitably have a bad impression of her. This kind of offending thing was particularly difficult to deal with. Now, meeting such a reasonable person who took the initiative to give up the opportunity, she felt that Jiang Zhe was particularly pleasing to her.

Teacher Hu walked over to Jiang Zhe and squeezed his arm. She and her students were getting familiar with each other, and these actions did not cause disgust. "You are so strong, but you have hypoglycemia?"

Jiang Zhe knew that Teacher Hu had no intention but to tease him, so he replied, "This is something I inherited from my parents. It is precisely because of this little problem that I have been exercising all the time."

Teacher Hu stopped talking about this topic and turned to look at Jiang Zhe's painting. "Are you learning to sketch like Michelangelo?"

Because Jiang Zhexue's figure was so similar, not only Teacher Hu noticed it, but some people in the class also noticed it, but they just didn't say it out loud.

Jiang Zhe replied, "I wanted to learn more about the statue of David, so I studied Michelangelo's sketches."

Teacher Hu said: "Your idea is very good. Learning from the masters is a good method, and you should apply it flexibly when you use it.

Michelangelo used this kind of line when painting real people. When you paint plaster statues, you need to pay attention to the texture.”

She picked up the eraser and wanted to help Jiang Zhe make some changes, but after looking at it for a long time, she couldn't find where to start. If she changed it according to her own understanding, it would destroy this regular and beautiful line.

Teacher Hu looked at Jiang Zhe's work, thought again and again, and decided to give up. "Draw according to your ideas, and study them if there are any problems."

Jiang Zhe expressed his gratitude and continued to carve.

At the same time, the monitor had finished the statistics and left with Teacher Hu.

Fu Min strolled to Jiang Zhe's side again and watched Jiang Zhe painting.

She watched Jiang Zhe imitate the master's method. At first, she thought that this way of painting was a bit artificial, but after watching for a long time, she gradually realized its special beauty.

Her mood became very complicated. She wanted to see the advantages of Jiang Zhe's paintings, but also wanted to find Jiang Zhe's shortcomings.

Before I knew it, I had been watching it for a long time.

At this time, another classmate came to see Jiang Zhe's painting, so Fu Min had to go back to her easel.

She examined her work and felt that some of the tones, especially those in the background, were redundant.

Looking back at Jiang Zhe's works, he did not rush to render the background, but instead focused all his energy on the plaster statue.

After some comparison, she found that the colors originally used to create the atmosphere were a bit dull.

She put down her paintbrush and planned to go to the library to read books and find inspiration.

Jiang Zhe felt that he had painted very smoothly today, but he still needed to consider how to proceed further.

He looked at his watch and saw that it was almost noon, so he packed up his painting supplies, took his bag, and left the studio.

During the two days of professional courses, Jiang Zhe gradually perfected his work.

In addition to maintaining the overall effect of the picture, he also paid special attention to creating a sense of dynamic beauty and majestic power by depicting the twisting movement of the David statue's head.

On Friday afternoon, Han Yin brought the selection results for the charity event.

"I have good news for you all. The participants for our class's charity event have been preliminarily determined. There are five students: Liu Shuhan, Fu Min..."

After she read out five names, she also specifically explained: "The list was decided by the department. Please understand those who were not selected. There will be opportunities in the future."

The students who were selected were happy, and as for those who were not selected, some were angry, some were silent, and some had already vented their emotions.

Jiang Zhe heard a girl say in a teasing tone: "I want to show my love, but I don't have the chance."

Han Yin knew that his classmate's words were not directed at him, but he still felt embarrassed.

The boy who lost the election, not caring about success or failure, started to argue with the complaining girl. The two of them were laughing and joking, attracting several classmates around them to join in, gradually defusing the awkward atmosphere.

When Jiang Zhe saw Fu Min coming to see him, he thought, such a thin girl actually wants to donate love?
