God-level Golden Hand

Chapter 419 Contradictory Painting
Xu Jingxing looked at the painting he had drawn unconsciously. At first glance, it was indeed a little messy. However, the chaos mainly refers to the messiness of the picture. The whole painting is full of different shades of ink, and there is a bit of layout. There is no particularity, just fill a large sheet of rice paper to the full.

The content of the painting is more chaotic, and it looks like a landscape, but the distance, layers, light and shade and other elements are not very particular. At first glance, it looks like a graffiti made by an urchin.

but……

He thought for a while, then turned his head and asked his apprentice, "Don't worry, come on, tell the old man what's so good about this painting."

An Xin stuck out her tongue, "Master, even Grandpa, this painting looks quite messy, but the brushwork is very particular, especially the brush strokes, which are all done in one go, using an axe, but I'm not sure whether it's a big axe or an axe. The small ax strikes, the brushstrokes are simple and concise, very powerful, if you look at it with a magnifying glass, it will definitely be very shocking, so the details of this painting are impeccable."

The old man blinked, turned to look at Xu Jingxing, "Really?"

Xu Jingxing smiled, pulled out a magnifying glass and handed it to the old man, "Look at it yourself."

Unbelievable, the old man ended up with a magnifying glass, carefully looked at the rice paper for more than ten seconds, and then gave a thumbs up, "Amazing, really amazing, is this the benefit you got from that flash of inspiration?"

"Yes, but it's thanks to your reminder, old man, otherwise I really don't know what to do," he flattered quickly. Of course, this is also true. Without the old man's reminder, he really would not have thought of this.

"Have you mastered it completely?" The old man stared at him with piercing eyes and asked.

"Yes," he nodded.

"How could it be so fast?" The old man still couldn't believe it, scratching his head, a little suspicious.

At this time, An Xin explained from the side: "I feel quite normal, because my master's level has already reached such a critical point, and it is time to break through, and my master is relatively good at skills, now from this aspect Breaking through first is also a matter of course.”

Xu Jingxing wished he could hug this sensible apprentice and give him a firm kiss. He was so understanding, he said everything he wanted to say, and these words are also suitable for other people. Saying it out of my own mouth, I feel that Wang Po is more or less suspected of selling melons.

Hearing this, the old man stroked his chin and thought for a while, then nodded, "It makes sense, but you are very strong, you have touched the master's side so quickly, no matter how hard you work, maybe you can be in Become a master before the age of 30."

"Don't be funny, old man. What kind of master is not a master? There is a specific standard size? No, the current masters are all flattering each other, and most of them are for making money. I don't rely on painting for a living. What kind of master's name is to me? It does not make any sense, but may provoke a lot of criticism out of thin air."

"How can you be darker than an old man like me at a young age?" The old man shook his head helplessly, "Forget it, anyway, if you have the right idea, I won't persuade you, but you have a good mentality, and you don't have to worry about gains and losses. Maybe it will improve faster, but this painting doesn't count, you have to help me draw another one, and you have to use the skills you just learned."

"It's a piece of cake." He was also determined to consolidate his skills. Hearing the old man's request, he changed to a piece of rice paper without hesitation and re-painted. The painting was very serious, especially in terms of layout, and he made plans in advance.

Whether it is painting or writing, it is very important to make the layout in advance. It is a state of trusting the horse to let the rein go, but if the rein is gone, the horse will lose control sooner or later, unless the horse control skills reach the point where the rein is not needed at all.

The current Xu Jingxing has not yet reached that level, but he can hide the "rein" in his heart - make plans and layouts in advance, which is the rein that he puts on himself when writing and drawing.

Twenty or 10 minutes later, another painting was released. Compared with the last one, this painting is naturally infinitely more beautiful. It looks very comfortable, with good layout, good color tone, and good spatial level, all in a very on a high level.

Moreover, the subject matter of this painting is also rather flattering, because the painting is Mount Lanke, which is also a top view from the perspective of God, and the entire Mount Lanke is drawn. In the picture, there are two people, one old and one young, playing chess at Richi Pavilion. Although the characters are small in size, at first glance they are outlined by a few lines and two dots of ink, but overall they are very vivid, portraying both the calmness of the old man and the liveliness of the young man.

The way of depiction is the sitting posture of the two. The old man sits cross-legged, with a straight body; the young man bends one leg and scratches his head with the other hand, which is somewhat similar to a grandson scratching his ear and cheek, which is very interesting.

Don't look at the old and the young only take up less than [-]% of the space, but it is the finishing touch of this painting, and it is just at the center of the whole painting layout, and it is the focus. The Richi Pavilion and the stone bridge, the cliff and the trees not far away, as well as the forest deep in the cliff and the rolling green hills behind it as the background are all to set off the two small-sized figures.

But the effect is so good. Using the layout of the whole painting, as well as the color and space to fuel the flames, people can't help but be attracted by the two people playing chess in the focal point the moment they see this painting.

What is focus?

This is the focus.

If the focal point fails to catch the reader's eye, then the focal point is a failure, and so is the whole painting.

Obviously, Xu Jingxing's painting was very successful.

The old man waited for him to finish the last stroke, and he applauded loudly. Although the old man claimed that he didn't know much about calligraphy, he was not ignorant. He still had some accomplishments, but he was not that professional.After all, although the old man is extraordinary, he is a mortal after all, not an omnipotent and omniscient god.

After shouting, the old man couldn't wait to look at it with a magnifying glass, and the more he looked at it, the happier he was, "Okay, that's great, it's obviously higher than your previous works. It seems that your harvest is really not small."

Xu Jingxing was a little surprised, "Have you seen my previous works?"

"Um, that's right, I've seen the painting you drew for Qian Dong, the one hanging in the welcoming hall," the old man explained quickly.

"So that's how it is," he suddenly realized. He thought that the old man had seen his real picture before, but he didn't expect to see it from the video recorded by Cheng Suling and the others. Just from the video, what level can he see?What's more, Cheng Suling and the others didn't close up the painting at that time.

But the old man said yes, it seems that such a respected old man has no reason to lie to himself about such a trivial matter.
