Qianwumei Also Wants To Be a Cartoonist

If it weren’t for what Yelena said to him, Lu Yizhe would obviously not pay special attention to Teacher An An. Of course, he had also tasted An An’s famous work-"The Collection of Flying Birds". There is a poem in it that made him very much. like-

…The furthest distance in the world is not the distance between life and death, not the separation of the sky, but I stand in front of you, but you don’t know that I love you. …The furthest distance in the world is the distance between a bird and a fish, one soaring in the sky, the other diving deep into the sea. ...?

In fact, in the world of An Yi, there is not a single song in "The Collection of Flying Birds", and Tagore hasn't written anything about "The Farthest Distance in the World". There is one sentence in Zhang Xiaoxian's novel "The Single Bed in a Purse". But in this parallel world, "The Collection of Flying Birds" was originally a picture book of poems incorporating many classic short poems, so it was naturally added.

Although Lu Yizhe liked this poem, he felt that the painting that was accompanied by the poem was too casual and subjective. There was a feeling that the author was doing graffiti wantonly, and that kind of spiritual and compelling feeling made him a little shocked. , But he himself doesn't like this kind of unconstrained and unreliable way of painting.

In fact, this is related to Lu Yizhe's own painting style. Like Anyi and Yelena, Lu Yizhe also has his own unique painting style. He is a typical academic painter.

The so-called academic school mainly refers to the painting school formed by painters who respect and follow rigorous and classical styles cultivated by the officially established academy of fine arts. It is a traditional art school, and because of official advocacy, it is also a painting school that has long occupied the mainstream of painting. .

Painters generally have to undergo rigorous painting training, follow classical traditions, and follow fixed painting procedures. The academic school has contributed to the inheritance and development of traditional painting techniques, but the rigid and rigid painting format has increasingly become an obstacle to painting innovation.

Lu Yizhe is a representative figure of the academy painters who can innovate, but his classicism respects rationalism,

The pursuit of sublime, eternal, and harmonious creative principles has been integrated into his bones.

Because of this, he didn't catch a cold on the paintings in "Asuka", even if many traditional painters have exclaimed, some of the unique painting styles and techniques in "Asuka" are a huge innovation. worth learning.

In the final analysis, Lu Yizhe is still conservative in his bones, although he is already considered flexible compared to the more conservative academic painters.

And why does Lu Yizhe appreciate Anyi so much?

Of course, it’s because of An Yi’s paintings that can be retracted and retracted freely. She is able to draw the content of wild horses and horses in a regular manner, and she can also draw regular objects with amazing effects, such as An Yi’s recent classic. For her work "Star Moon Night", before her, no one had thought that the starry sky could draw the feeling of a vortex. She was obviously painting a dynamic starry sky, the stars were constantly moving...

This superhuman painting skills and imagination, as well as her overflowing spirituality, made Lu Yizhe admire the five bodies. He felt that he might not be inferior to his painting skills, but that kind of spirituality and imagination. No matter what, he can't match An Yi.

Sometimes he really wanted to open An Yi’s head to see how many unbelievable ideas there were. But when she turned these wild ideas into paintings with a paintbrush, they became amazing masterpieces again. .

Lu Yizhe thinks that the paintings in The Flying Birds are empty of brains and imagination, but in the eyes of an expert like him, the craftsmanship is a bit rough, and it feels like a draft, rather than a final completion after careful sculpting. work.

In fact, Lu Yizhe feels very right. The birth of "Asuka" was a very accidental event. This picture book of poems actually appeared at the fanzine sales meeting first. It can be seen that it was completely driven by ducks and put it on the shelves. Painting "Asuka Collection" was just for self-entertainment. She used paintings to describe her feelings after reading, but it was later published...

It was also because he felt that the skills of "Asuka" were relatively rough and completely inconsistent with the exquisite painting skills and delicate brushwork of An Yi in his impression, so he never thought that the author of this work was An Yi. .

But since he heard Yelena say that An An’s true identity is An Yi, he turned around and looked at "The Collection of Birds" again, and he chewed some unique flavors that belonged to An Yi, the imagination and overflowing Apart from An Yi, who else can possess the spirituality that comes out?

Next, he went to study the painting that Mr. An An gave to Ou He, which also included the vast universe. He really found a familiar style, that aesthetic, dreamy, and magnificent feeling, which made him want to stop. .

With the exception of teacher An An’s cartoons, Lu Yizhe has carefully studied all of her art paintings, and has almost truly confirmed Yelena’s statement.

At this time, when he was watching "Serious Moments" in "This Time" magazine, he was already thinking about appreciating An Yi's work and carefully appreciated such a work.

Since "Serious Moments" was published in "This Time", it didn't cause much disturbance in the beginning.

Many readers who chose to buy this pure magazine because of Mr. An An’s name were a little disappointed. Although they were prepared to fail to understand Mr. An An’s art paintings, things came to an end, ( uukansu.om) but found that they can’t even read poems. com, this is really unpleasant. Because it means that their realm is far from that of Teacher An An...

These readers are obviously diehard fans of Teacher An An. Even if Teacher An An did not draw comics, they chose unreserved support. Because of their support, the sales of the pure magazine "This Time" skyrocketed. While the group of editors under Ou He was shocked, he also intuitively felt how great An An's appeal was.

However, over time, when writers, poets, painters and other artists in the literary, poetic, and painting circles saw the work "Serious Moments", they were shocked by this extremely profound poetry and painting. Including many well-known artists.

Because they admire this poem and this painting very much, they spontaneously promoted this kind of work, and as a result, its reputation spread throughout the art world, and this kind of symbolist work is undoubtedly the most suitable for "over-interpretation." Many people who think they have a high artistic style have analyzed this work one after another, and some even wrote analytical comments of tens of thousands of words and voted for the authoritative journal "The Review".

All in all, this work that is extremely unfriendly to ordinary readers has aroused the pursuit of many people in the art world. It seems that if you don't appreciate such a work, it seems that you have no artistic accomplishment. In other words, it is not compelling.
