Reborn as a great painter, with a system, you can be willful

Chapter 285: Fame, New Skills, and Opportunities
"Hello, Mr. Meng."

"Jiang Zhe is here. Congratulations."

……

The newly completed calligraphy and painting art center.

Jiang Zhe greeted and exchanged pleasantries with the members of the Binhai Art Association who were present.

Regardless of whether they knew each other before, many people would congratulate Jiang Zhe when they saw him.

Jiang Zhe noticed that the members who came to participate in the event this time were basically people who had some fame in the local circle. Whenever they went out to participate in an event, they were always surrounded by people. In the past, it was impossible for them to take the initiative to say hello to him.

He knew in his heart that the news of the auction of his works was still spreading. Just as Professor Qin said, his status had changed.

Gu Qian and several staff members were distributing name tags to the guests.

She pinned the colorful name tag to Jiang Zhe's shirt pocket and stepped back to see if it was in the right position. "It looks good."

"Thank you." Jiang Zhe looked down at the name tag. It had a red background with his name printed on it, and was decorated with gold flakes and lace.

Now, I have become a guest sitting in the front row.

Today, in addition to the inauguration ceremony of the calligraphy and painting activity center, there was also an opening ceremony for an event.

Activities such as speaking, making reports and visiting are nothing new.

As the event was coming to an end, the host invited many guests to the stage for a group photo.

Among a group of gray-haired or middle-aged guests, there is a twenty-year-old young man.

Many people in the audience were confused and asked questions. Naturally, someone with good information introduced it.

Many people suddenly understood what was going on when they heard about Jiang Zhe or matched the person with the name.

When Jiang Zhe was standing on the stage taking pictures, he noticed the many glances from the audience.

Facing so many eyes, he remained calm.

Gu Qian showed great abilities during the event, and when it was over, she wanted to send Jiang Zhe back.

Jiang Zhe declined and took a taxi to a commercial street near the city center. After waiting on the street for a few minutes, he saw Chen Yan walking towards him.

The two of them would arrange some time to relax and play every week, have lunch, go shopping, and then return to the studio.

When Jiang Zhe was washing up, he suddenly heard the system prompt sound.

When you open the system, you will see a prompt on the page.

Your current honor level (somewhat famous) has reached the maximum level and you can enter the next level.

He clicked on the honor value and saw that the experience bar was full. Thinking back to the last time he checked, the cursor was still some distance away from the maximum level, but he didn't expect it to be completed so soon.

Jiang Zhe was about to click the upgrade button when Chen Yan came out of the bathroom. "I'm fine. Go wash up."

Jiang Zhe smiled and walked towards the bathroom.

With such an obvious hint, let’s put other things aside for now.

After a long time, Chen Yan fell into a deep sleep.

Jiang Zhe squinted his eyes, feeling the warm feeling.

At this moment, he didn't want to paint, he just wanted to enjoy a leisurely and comfortable time.

Yesterday, I reviewed the information about Raphael. Many people speculated that Raphael died at the age of 37, probably because his works were too popular, resulting in constant orders and death from overwork.

Jiang Zhe warned himself that he must learn from the lessons of his predecessors.

It was not until after dinner that Jiang Zhe sent Chen Yan home.

He returned to the studio, reopened the system, and clicked on honor upgrade.

The honor experience bar was cleared, and the suffix entry changed. From being a little famous, it became a very famous one.

A prompt appears on the page: You have completed an honor level upgrade and received a chance to participate in a lottery.

You can gain experience points and continue to improve your honor by learning and participating in tasks.

The honor level will affect your settlement results.

Jiang Zhe checked other pages of the system and found that the overall changes were not significant. He could only wait for the next upgrade to verify the effect of the honor increase.

He clicked to use the lottery opportunity. This time, the lottery opportunity was a random draw, not limited to skill types. There was a chance of drawing rare good things, but there was also a high chance of drawing useless things.

The sweepstakes page appears.

Jiang Zhe saw that the lottery wheel had disappeared and had been turned into something similar to a ball maze.

Click to start the lottery. At the lower right entrance of the maze, a ball is suddenly bounced up and begins to roll in the channel... The speed gradually slows down and finally rolls into a certain grid.

There is a feather pen icon on this grid.

Jiang Zhe didn't know what this reward was.

Click to claim.

The lottery page shows: Congratulations, you have drawn Italian Language Skills (Intermediate).

Before Jiang Zhe could think of anything, he felt a message coming into his mind.

While digesting it, he browsed through the information contained in the skill.

When the skill transfer was over, he already had a preliminary understanding of the new skill. Although it was an intermediate skill, it was enough to handle some daily conversations.

This skill reminded Jiang Zhe of an idea he had in the past.

I have always wanted to find an opportunity to observe the original works of painting masters to improve my aesthetics and skills. Can I take advantage of the holidays to complete this idea?
If you think about it this way, whether it is Italian or other languages, they all play a significant role.

Learning from masters like Raphael will not end with the semester goal, it may be a long process. One's own learning pace will not stop, and language skills are a good tool.

On Monday, Jiang Zhe came to Teacher Hu's office to hand in his sketch assignment and investigation report.

In addition to daily materials, there is a pile of sketches and a pile of reports on Teacher Hu's desk.

The report is the homework for this professional course, and the sketches are checked every week.

Teacher Hu took Jiang Zhe's investigation report, only glanced at the approximate number of words and format, and put it on top of the pile of reports. Then, he picked up Jiang Zhe's sketchbook and read it carefully.

"Have you started copying Raphael's paintings recently?" she asked as she looked at them.

Jiang Zhe said: “I want to copy an oil painting, so I will copy the practice work first.

Teacher Hu said: "I have also copied these works. Your use of pen and line is becoming more and more stable and not rigid. Not bad."

After reading the sketch, she returned the book to Jiang Zhe and said, "I helped you get through the competition that Teacher Zhou mentioned." Before Jiang Zhe could thank her for the painting, Teacher Hu continued, "There are a few pre-exam classes that would like to invite you to teach. Would you like to consider it?"

Jiang Zhe said carefully: "Teacher, I have already made plans for the holiday."

Teacher Hu nodded, "I understand. I'll help you reject it."

Jiang Zhe expressed his sincere gratitude.

When the teacher is willing to help you, you will feel like a fish in water.

At 6 o'clock in the evening, Jiang Zhe returned to the studio, put all the purple clay utensils he had brought back from the ceramic studio today into a large rice steamer, and started boiling them in water.

When the boiling water reaches the predetermined temperature, turn off the heat and wait for the water temperature to drop naturally.

While waiting, he had already thought about the arrangements for these purple clay utensils. Except for the purple clay teapot given to his parents, most of the pots and teacups were kept in the studio for his own use.

In the future, ceramic handicrafts can be used as a pastime and diversion during study, but it will not be done often.

He made himself tea with his new purple clay teapot, and then continued to copy Raphael's works.

The underlying sketch effect of this work has been completed.

……

He mixed several red and blue translucent colors according to the recipe described in the information, painted them on an experimental oil canvas, and observed the effect.

I thought the color was good, so I tried applying a little on the sketch effect layer of the original draft.

Jiang Zhe looked at it for a while, put down the paintbrush, picked up a piece of soft gauze, and wiped off the color.

The color effect is not right.

He felt that the information he had now was not enough to complete a high-quality copy.

There is a lot of research information about Raphael, and some of the content is difficult to tell whether it is true or false.

After thinking for a long time, he decided to take advantage of the opportunity to watch a master painting.
