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

When Jiang Zhe heard Luan Yuhui's suggestion, he was stunned at first, then hurriedly made excuses for himself.

"Teacher Luan, don't mind me. This is because I drew too quickly, so I had to omit some parts. I will pay attention to it when I start the formal creation."

Luan Yuhui glanced at him, did not argue, and turned her attention to the painting.

Jiang Zhe cut an orange and handed it to Luan Yuhui.

"Thank you." Luan Yuhui didn't hesitate to pick up an orange slice and gently sipped the orange juice.

After eating a slice of orange, she said, "Don't tell anyone that I'm here to be a model."

Jiang Zhe said he understood.

Luan Yuhui tested her hair and found it was dry, so she said, "If everything is fine, I'll go back."

Jiang Zhe hurriedly tried to persuade him to stay: "Teacher, please stay here for lunch."

"No. I have something else to do in the afternoon and I need to prepare. You go ahead and do your thing."

Seeing that Luan Yuhui was really leaving, Jiang Zhe insisted on driving her there.

When we were almost at the school, Teacher Luan suggested: "Just park here and don't drive into the school."

Jiang Zhe stopped the car on the roadside as requested.

He looked at Luan Yuhui who was about to get off the bus and said, "Teacher, don't worry about this painting. I will paint it slowly and try to make it a classic."

"Well, I'm not in a hurry. Is it difficult for you to paint a portrait on a canvas of this size?"

Jiang Zhe said, "It's not difficult. Teacher, our Academy of Fine Arts will organize students to participate in the selection of the National Art Exhibition. Your image will appear in the painting with Yuan Xiaohan as the protagonist. In addition, I will send one to two works to the Times Auction every year. Your image and that of Yuan Xiaohan will also appear in that painting. Do you mind?"

Luan Yuhui thought of Jiang Zhe's two drafts and said immediately, "It's okay. As long as Yuan Xiaohan doesn't mind, I agree."

"Okay, thank you teacher."

"You're welcome." Luan Yuhui got out of the car, stood on the side of the road and waved to Jiang Zhe: "Go back quickly."

"Goodbye, teacher." Jiang Zhe started the car, turned a direction, and saw Luan Yuhui still standing on the side of the road, so he waved again.

Luan Yuhui saw Jiang Zhe's car driving away, then turned and walked towards the school.

As she walked, she thought about her experiences today.

I haven't been in contact with Jiang Zhe for a long time, and I have a good impression of him. However, this morning, I made a breakthrough that I could never have imagined in the past.

Recalling some of these fragments, I just couldn’t understand why my tolerance had reached this point.
She kept reminding herself that she and Jiang Zhe were teacher and student after all...

Jiang Zhe returned to the studio and reviewed his work while tidying up.

In the morning, except for the time when I was fully devoted to painting and didn't have time to think too much, I could feel that Teacher Luan seemed to be particularly tolerant of me. He appeared alone in the student's studio and even performed a dance. He seemed to be able to accept some jokes.

Things that were unimaginable in the past just happened.

While Jiang Zhe was secretly delighted, he also considered more relationships. Although he was doing this to complete the mission, he had to face a difficult choice.

However, he soon came to his senses. He was an adult and had to bear the consequences of his choices. He would talk about it when things came to that point.

After lunch and a short rest, he began to perfect his work.

He also liked the sketch that Luan Yuhui liked.

In addition to the painting he was going to give to Luan Yuhui, he was going to paint another one using a different technique.

Jiang Zhe quickly drew two sketches with basically the same content but different sizes and details, and transferred them to two canvases. One was to be given to Luan Yuhui, with a size of 30×40cm. The other was to be kept by himself or used in a competition, with a size of 80×90cm.

Because both paintings are full-length portraits of people, they are of different sizes and the details will vary.

For the painting he gave to Luan Yuhui, he planned to use the transparent glazing technique to create a classical aesthetic; for the other painting, he would use the technique he was currently verifying.

At the beginning of a new week, Jiang Zhe took time every night to perfect his work. There were many semi-finished products in the studio.

On Thursday afternoon, Jiang Zhe came to Professor Qin's office with two works he had just completed.

Because they had called in advance, Professor Qin was already waiting for him.

"Come, put all your paintings on the easel."

Jiang Zhe laid out two works he had completed in his professional course. One was a portrait of an old woman from life, and the other was a moment of Yuan Xiaohan's training.

Professor Qin compared the two paintings repeatedly.

When I first saw the sketch of the old woman, I thought it was good enough. However, after looking at another work of his, I felt that this painting lacked some artistic atmosphere.

He looked at the second painting and liked it even more.

In the painting, Yuan Xiaohan is practicing very attentively, and Luan Yuhui is giving guidance from the side.

Both of them were immersed in training. The atmosphere created by the backlight and Jiang Zhe's depiction of the characters created a special attraction.

Professor Qin thought of his words, then pointed at the work and began to analyze: "I personally think this painting is very good. Whether it is the detailed portrayal of the characters, including the sense of space and the atmosphere, it is very good.

You have already created the feeling of the character being backlit.

The first time I saw this painting, I could feel the haziness of the sunlight shining through the air.

I suggest that you give this one to the selection. I hope it will be successful."

Jiang Zhe asked: "Teacher, do you think I need to make any improvements to my realistic techniques in this painting?"

Professor Qin said as he looked at it, “Your technique is somewhat different from the meticulousness of hyperrealism, and it also doesn’t have the layering of classical techniques.

I personally think it is very vivid. The direction you chose is not wrong. However, at this stage, I cannot give you more specific guidance. You need to think about it yourself. "

He looked at the time and said, "The selection starts today. You should go back early."

Jiang Zhe thanked Professor Qin, picked up his work and returned to the studio.

Teacher Hu quickly came to the studio and informed the students to participate in the school selection for the National Art Exhibition and send their entries to the small exhibition room.

The students in the class had already known the news in advance and were well prepared. After a month of preparation, everyone was able to produce one or more works, and also asked professional teachers to review their works.

Everyone followed Teacher Hu, took their works to the small exhibition room, and placed them as required.

After everyone's works were displayed, Teacher Hu asked everyone to go back and wait for news.

At this time, students from other grades of the oil painting major also came to submit their works.

The exhibition room is bustling with people.

Some good works will attract everyone's attention. Therefore, after submitting their works, the students were reluctant to leave immediately and stayed to see if there were better works and then compare them.

Among them, Jiang Zhe's works are the most popular. (End of this chapter)
