Qianwumei Also Wants To Be a Cartoonist

If it weren't for what Yelena said to him, Lu Yizhe obviously wouldn't pay special attention to Teacher An An. Of course, he had also read Teacher An An's famous work - Flying Bird Collection, and there was a poem in it that made him I like it very much——

... The furthest distance in the world is not the distance between life and death, or the distance between heaven and earth, but that 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 soars into the sky, while the other dives deep into the sea. ...?

In fact, in An Yi's world, there was not a single song in Flying Birds, and Tagore never wrote The Farthest Distance in the World. In Zhang Xiaoxian's novel Single Bed in the Purse, there is such a sentence, But in this parallel world, Flying Bird Collection is originally a poetry picture book that combines many classic short poems, so this poem was naturally added.

Although Lu Yizhe likes this poem, he feels that the painting accompanying the poem is too casual and subjective. There is a feeling that the author is just scribbling randomly. That kind of spirituality is certainly shocking to him. , but he himself does not like this unconstrained and unconstrained way of painting.

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

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

Painters generally have to undergo strict painting training, follow the classical tradition, and abide by a fixed painting program. The academic school of painting played an important role in the inheritance and development of traditional painting techniques, but the rigid and rigid painting format later became more and more an obstacle to painting innovation.

Lu Yizhe is a representative of the innovative academic painters, but his classicism, advocating rationalism, and pursuing the creative principles of sublime, eternity, and harmony have been integrated into his bones.

Because of this, he is not very interested in the paintings in Flying Birds, even many traditional painters have exclaimed that some unique painting styles and techniques in Flying Birds are a huge innovation. worth learning.

After all, Lu Yizhe is still conservative in his bones, although compared with the more conservative academic painters, he already knows how to be flexible.

And why did Lu Yizhe admire An Yi so much?

Of course, it is because of An Yi's paintings, which can be retracted freely. She can draw the content of the wild and unconstrained style in a regular way, and she can also draw regular objects to amazing effects, such as An Yi's recent classic painting. The most famous work Starry Moon Night, before her, no one has ever thought that the starry sky can draw the feeling of swirls,

What she painted is obviously a dynamic starry sky, the stars are constantly moving...

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

Sometimes he really wants to open An Yi's head to see how many unbelievable ideas are inside, but when she uses a paintbrush to turn these wild ideas into paintings, they become amazing masterpieces .

And Lu Yizhe felt that the paintings in Flying Birds had no imagination and imagination, but the skills seemed a bit rough to him as an insider, and felt like drafts, rather than the final completion after careful carving work.

In fact, Lu Yizhe felt quite right. The birth of Flying Bird Collection was a very accidental thing. This poetry and picture book actually appeared first in the fanzine sale. Painting A Collection of Flying Birds is just for self-entertainment. She used paintings to describe her impressions after reading, but it was later published...

It was precisely because he felt that the technique of Flying Birds was relatively rough, and it was completely inconsistent with An Yi's superb painting skills and delicate brushwork in his impression, so he never thought that the author of this work was An Yi. .

But ever since he heard Yelena say that the real identity of Teacher An An is An Yi, he looked back and read Flying Birds again, and tasted some flavors that belonged to An Yi alone. Apart from An Yi, who else can possess such a spirituality?

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

Lu Yizhe has carefully studied all of An An's art works except for her cartoons, and has almost confirmed what Yelena said.

At this time, when he was reading The Serious Moment in the This Time magazine, he was already appreciating An Yi's work, and carefully appreciating such a work.

Since Serious Moment was published in This Time, it did not cause much disturbance at the beginning.

Many readers who chose to buy this pure literature magazine because of Teacher An An's name were a little disappointed. Although they had already prepared themselves for not being able to understand the art paintings of Teacher An An, when things came to an end, But to find that they can't even understand poetry, this is really not a taste. Because this means that their realm is still far from that of Teacher An An...

These readers are obviously die-hard fans of Teacher An An. Even if what Teacher An An draws is not comics, they also choose to support them without reservation. It is also because of their support that the sales of that issue of the pure literature magazine This Time skyrocketed , while the group of editors under Ou He were shocked, they also intuitively felt the great appeal of Teacher An An.

However, with the passage of time, when writers, poets, painters and other artists in the world of literature, poetry, and painting saw the work Serious Moment, they were shocked by the poems and paintings with extremely profound connotations. Including many well-known artists.

Because they admired this poem and painting very much, they spontaneously promoted this work, and as a result, its reputation spread throughout the art world, and this kind of symbolism work is undoubtedly the most suitable for over-interpretation , Many people who think they have a high artistic style analyzed this work one after another, and some even wrote tens of thousands of words of analysis and comments, which were submitted to the authoritative journal Literary Review.

All in all, this work, which is extremely unfriendly to ordinary readers, has aroused the pursuit of many people in the art circle, as if not appreciating such a work, it seems very unartistic.
