Shenhao with a learning panel

Chapter 181 Sketch hand promotion

On the front page of the auction preview, Li Shi saw a yellow seal and immediately became interested.

He carefully looked at the title of the lot introduction - Wen Zhengming's Tianhuang seal in the middle of the Qing Dynasty.

"It's really Tian Huang."

Reach out and click to see the details.

"The size is 3.4×1.6×7.3cm, and the weight is only 45g, which is less than one or two pounds."

The estimated price is: 600000-900000 (RMB).

"With a weight of 45 grams, the estimated price is about 80 million yuan. If calculated at 80 yuan, the unit price is more than 7 million yuan per gram."

"This unit price should not be the most expensive in Tianhuangli."

Li Shi rubbed his hands.

Recently, he is learning painting, and occasionally he wonders whether to make a few seals for use.

However, sketching is still just (beginner+), and I haven't drawn any works that I am particularly satisfied with, so I am not in a hurry.

When he looked up various precious materials before, he knew a little bit about Tian Huang's information, and knew that Tian Huang had been called the "King of Seal Stones" since the Ming and Qing Dynasties.High-ranking officials, literati, and even emperors all scrambled to use the seals carved by Tian Huang.

"In addition to engraving, I have always wanted to find the second and third gemstones other than jadeite as an option to exchange wealth in the future. Apart from Hetian jade, this Tianhuang is probably a high-value option."

Li Shi entered "Tianhuang" in the search box on the upper right of the auction website, clicked to confirm, and soon, all the transaction data related to Tianhuang in previous years were displayed.

Choose to sort by price from high to low, and then check them one by one.

"Tianhuang seals (a set of eleven pieces) made by Zhou Shangjun of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty for the personal use of Wu Guozhen and his wife, with a total weight of 438 grams and a transaction price of 2530 million yuan...the unit price is 5.77 yuan per gram."

"Qing Kangxi Tianhuang frozen double phoenix button generous chapter, weighing 256 grams, with a transaction price of 1610 million... the unit price is 6.28 per gram."

Li Shi looked at all the Tianhuangshi auctions with the highest transaction prices, and then opened the website of Dejia Auction Company, which he was more familiar with, and searched their Tianhuang transaction records over the years.

On Dejia's side, the highest transaction price is a modern Shoushan Tian Huangshi ornament, 2012 million, weighing 340 grams, and the unit price is 5.9 per gram.

"The current price of gold is in the early 100s, that is to say, the price of the top Tianhuang is at least [-] times that of gold!"

He checked some information on the Internet and saw that someone said in the forum that the price of the top Tianhuang stone was even as high as 10,000+ per gram.

"It's not much different from the top-level jadeite. The key is that I can't just exchange for jadeite. What a trick!"

"First find a way to buy a high-quality Tianhuang sample."

"There are too many fakes now, and it is relatively reliable to go through a large auction company."

Li Shi went back to the website of Libao Auction Company in Beijing and looked at it. The notice stated that their auction will be held at the Grand Hyatt Hotel in Xiangjiang in late January.

"It's only the first ten days of December, and there's still a month and a half left."

He went to the website of the Dejia Auction Company, which he had worked with twice, and looked at their auction preview, and found that in addition to the online auction, their next large-scale auction was also held in Xiangjiang, but the time was different from that of Libao Auction Company. A little earlier, in early January.

"Jade, Jinshi, Wenfang, Art View and Ancient Auction."

"Hey, besides Tian Huangshi, there are also Tian Baishi and Bai Furong stone..."

After Li Shi browsed around, he sent a message to Zhou Yajuan of Dejia Auction Company.

Zhou Yajuan replied quickly: "No problem, Mr. Li, leave it to me."

"That's my trouble, thank you."

Li Shi replied thank you, put down his phone and Tian Huang's for the time being, and rethought how to design the ring.

He suddenly remembered that when drawing a sketch, he emphasized the need to observe first, and immediately patted his thigh: "Hi, what's the use of my thinking like this, the ring is worn on the hand, so you can directly observe her hand to find inspiration."

Li Shi stood up with a smile and walked into the bedroom.

Chen Qiuye slept very soundly. Li Shi lay down next to her, turned over and approached, found a suitable position, and picked up her left hand to play with, without waking her up.

Beautiful as jade.

The same is true for the hand of a beauty.

Chen Qiuye's hands were as slender as green onions and as white as jade.

Watching it, playing with it, or being played with it, all of them are of the best quality, and only Li Shi knows the wit in it.

"Such a pair of bare hands is already a work of art, and there is no need for too many and complicated ornaments to embellish it."

Li Shi was touched and admired.

I thought to myself, I only need to wear another jade bracelet on my wrist, as a magic weapon for the fairy to catch the demon dragon, but it is just right.

After a while, he got up, went to the living room, and picked up his pen and sketchbook again.

Soon, two round bracelets were drawn on the white paper.

"Purple is elegant, and the left side is a high-ice violet round bar, which can be worn when attending important occasions."

"When the colorless jadeite is of high quality, it will turn white due to fluorescence. Many people call it 'white moonlight'. On the right side is a colorless round strip of glass. It is cold and crystal clear. It suits her temperament when she wears it normally."

Li Shi smiled with satisfaction.

He was not in a hurry to exchange.

Among the samples collected before, the best violet sample is more positive in color, but positive purple is only an option. Li Shi expected that in addition to being more suitable for positive purple, she also has pink purple.

"I went to Pingzhou and Jieyang this time, so I just collected some more samples, and I will give her a surprise when I come back."

Putting down the sketchbook, he got up and went to the main bathroom in the living room to take a shower. After he came out, Li Shi checked the time. Tutorial: The Nickelodeis Method, learn it.

After reading for a while, I picked up the sketchbook and drew two homework according to the requirements in the book.

After the takeaway arrived, he went to the bedroom to take a look.

This Chen Qiuye, every time he went to the back, he refused to admit defeat, and he yelled happily, but he was already exhausted, otherwise he wouldn't be sleeping so deeply now.

Li Shi came out of the bedroom, and while eating, he was thinking, it seems that he has to pack up for the night.

Get rid of the original Chinese food for two, and continue to read and study.

"Chapter 5..."

"We think too much about painting with what we know about painting. We should think about the human body itself, not how a famous artist painted it. We should treat the human body as real muscles and bones..."

After completing two sketching assignments according to the requirements in the book again, I felt very touched by what he had learned before.

"The sketches in this book are quite different from the system I learned before, but they are similar."

He suddenly felt a little itchy, and immediately prepared to draw a work in earnest.

There are also objects.

It was Chen Qiuye's hand.

He came to the master bedroom with a sketchbook and pencil case, sat on the quilt, and began to observe.

In fact, Li Shi was already familiar with these beautiful hands and couldn't be more familiar with them.

Soon, there was inspiration.

This time, he did not "realistic", but combined some things from traditional Chinese painting.

After studying line drawing in traditional Chinese painting for a period of time, his aesthetic recuperation in this area has also improved accordingly.

This time, the speed of his pen and line drawing is not fast, it can even be said to be very slow, but he draws very leisurely.

It is also very concise.

So in less than ten minutes, the painting was finished.

Li Shi stopped writing and looked carefully:

Between the clouds and water, there seems to be a demon dragon haunting.

A pair of slender hands protruded from the sky, holding it firmly with boundless fairy spirit, no matter how hard it struggled, it was difficult to escape.

Vaguely, it seemed as if the fairy could still hear her mouth covering her mouth and laughing contemptuously.

"I can't say it is good or bad, but this painting expresses what I want to express. Well, it feels very good, but it seems that there is something missing..."

I thought about it sideways, and after a few minutes, I picked up the pencil again and wrote next to the drawing:

An Dejia raised her plain hands, and bound the Canglong to cover her lips with a smile.

As soon as the pen was written, Li Shi immediately felt that his body and mind were transparent, and he was extremely comfortable inside and out. At this moment, there was a touch in his mind, which immediately surprised Li Shi!
"Actually promoted from (beginner +) to (proficient -)!"
