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

Chapter 317, Creation, Receipt, Two Good News
studio.

Wang Zhen said to Jiang Zhe: "A friend in the provincial capital passed the news to me. I heard that Zong Liang had several lovers outside. One of them asked him to do something for his family, but he didn't do it well. Not only that, he also wanted to get rid of that person.

That woman was not someone to be trifled with. She went to the Artists Association and made a scene, and even revealed some of Zong Liang’s secrets.

Originally, this matter might have been resolved internally, but I don’t know who reported it, and the matter became a big deal.

During the mediation process, the woman revealed several scandals of Zong Liang.

I heard that Zong Liang hasn't shown up yet, and I don't know where he is hiding."

The information Wang Zhen received should have been very detailed, and the description was even more vivid.

When she described the woman's riot in the courtyard of the Artists Association, she portrayed the scene so vividly that Jiang Zhe laughed out loud.

After describing some details, Wang Zhen commented: "It's really his own fault. He usually handles too many things like this. Now, many details have been revealed, and I heard that many people are involved."

Jiang Zhe thought. There were many twists and turns because of the art museum collection. Although he gained a lot, the process was really torturous. Thinking of this, and hearing about Zong Liang's current situation, he felt more relaxed.

Wang Zhen also said: "This incident shows that you have both strength and luck. It is well deserved that your work is collected by the museum."

Jiang Zhe said, "Given our relationship, it's meaningless for you to praise me like this."

Wang Zhen said: "I am not flattering you. Think about it, Zong Liang has a high chance of success in what he has done. In this case, what does it mean that you can win? Isn't it just strength and luck?
If Zong Liang gets into trouble, those who worked with him behind the scenes and those who were involved will probably be worried. "

At this time, some people in the provincial capital, just as Wang Zhen had guessed, were in panic or anxiety.

A fat man quietly left the Artist Association compound and returned home.

"Come back so early today?" the wife turned off the TV and asked the fat man.

The fat man put down his handbag and changed his shoes: "You don't know, something happened at work."

"I heard about it," the wife replied.

"The news spread so quickly." The fat man was surprised.

"This kind of thing spreads very quickly. It came from your unit." The wife changed the subject: "This matter won't involve you, right?

"I'm not familiar with him. I'll go wash up first." The fat man walked into the bathroom.

When he came out, he felt much more refreshed and his mind was clearer.

"Where do you think Zong Liang will run to?" his wife continued to ask.

The fat man sat on the rattan chair: "I don't know, I should hide away. It would be better if he doesn't show up."

His wife asked with great interest, "Is the woman who is said to have an unusual relationship with Zong Liang Lin Yi?"

The fat man replied: "You know more about what you are asking about than I do."

The wife said, "Stay away from such people in the future."

The fat man nodded: "That's right. Zong Liang's story reminds me of Jiang Zhe."

"I've heard of him."

The fat man sighed: "I have to admit that human luck is amazing."

"Why is it about luck again?"

The fat man explained: "Zong Liang is very skilled in doing these things. He should have succeeded, but he failed. But Jiang Zhe is lucky? Lao Li is so picky, but he liked Jiang Zhe's work at first sight. This is also luck."

As he spoke, he was thinking about how to contact Jiang Zhe in the future.

At the same time, several people who were trying to escape from the vortex, and those who had already escaped from the vortex, quietly changed their perception of Jiang Zhe. …

Wang Zhen left the studio and Jiang Zhe continued painting.

The next day, he spent a day completing the sketch. After several adjustments, he felt there was no problem and began to prepare the final draft.

He was going to paint an oil painting measuring 125 x 90 cm.

He first used watercolor tools to complete a small color draft to determine the color relationship.

When he painted this picture, he used Ingres's method to model the characters. However, Ingres's paintings also have the shortcomings of academic planning. For example, sketching and painting in the studio with fixed light will easily lead to monotony and lack of variety.

Therefore, when dealing with the color relationship between characters and backgrounds, Jiang Zhe adopted a lot of Impressionist methods, especially Manet's methods.

Thanks to his previous study of Manet, he had his own understanding of the colors of Impressionism. The fact that he was recognized shows that the Impressionists' study of the relationship between color and light had a huge impact.

Jiang Zhe felt that he should combine the two and try to avoid academic problems.

The character's inherent color and surrounding light, background and spatial levels can also express the relationship between the sketch and the changes in color.

Jiang Zhe transferred the main image from the sketch onto the canvas.

The oil painting base has been completed in the past two days.

When Jiang Zhe was drawing the draft, he had already memorized the character's shape in his mind, so he quickly started to paint the first color.

He deliberately practiced direct oil painting, and before he began creating, he had already considered using more direct painting and less rendering.

Time flies and a week has passed.

Jiang Zhe received the money from the coin auction.

In addition, he spends a few hours every day creating, and the rest of the time thinking about other works.

When Wang Zhen came to Jiang Zhe's studio again, he saw a finished portrait.

When she first saw the work, she asked, “Where did you find the model?
Jiang Zhe smiled but said nothing.

Wang Zhen didn't ask any further questions and continued to observe.

The figure in the painting is standing on a platform, which is equivalent to the height of two or three floors of the surrounding buildings. The expression, movement and clothing are all beautiful. In addition to the beauty of the figure in the painting, you will also be attracted by the temperament of the woman.

Combined with other elements in the painting, the work has a contemporary feel, and is real and intimate, as if it is happening around us.

Wang Zhen leaned in to observe the details. The facial features and fingers of the person in the painting were clearly painted with transparent shading techniques.
The characters have a good sketch relationship. At the same time, the introduction of sunlight factors makes the color changes very subtle.

Wang Zhen observed it closely, then stepped back, repeating this process several times before saying, "This painting is very good, good enough to enter the competition."

Jiang Zhe said, "There is still some time. I will draw a few more and then slowly choose."

Wang Zhen said, "I recently looked at some contemporary paintings auctioned by Jiashide. Your painting is definitely better than them."

She sat down and took a sip of tea. Suddenly she asked, "Does the woman in the painting look a bit like Lan Xin?"

Lan Xin often goes to her gallery and should be very familiar with it.

However, when Jiang Zhe portrayed the characters, he added some good temperament to the people in the painting, which made Wang Zhen unsure.

Jiang Zhe said: "I used this as a reference when I was creating it."

Wang Zhen did not continue to talk about this topic, but turned to another matter. "In the provincial capital, Zong Liang's matter is not over yet. He has not shown up. Some people say that he may have fled to a country near the Baltic Sea."
