Landscape painting area.
The painting is titled "The Sea Embraces All Rivers".
Under the purely real brushwork, the intrinsic relationship between the ocean and the rocks seems to connect nature into a whole. The transition from the overlapping mountains to the nearby trees is natural. In the thickly textured rocks, in the dense forests or bushes, one can actually reveal a sense of moisture, and are filled with vigorous vitality, as if it is the perfect combination of the state of mind and the real world, making these calm and majestic landscapes elegant in their heaviness, and handsome in their grandeur.
“Learn from nature!”
"The landscape is strange, mysterious, profound, and unexpected, yet it retains the appearance of real mountains and water, making the viewer fascinated. This is clearly the work of a master. There are only a handful of people on the entire Blue Star who have this skill!"
"This was drawn by Shadow!?"
"It is said that landscape painting is not about the likeness of the image, but about the meaning. Every tree, stone, platform and pavilion can represent the painter's intention. There is no need to worry about perspective and other display issues. However, this painting is a perfect combination of the two. It feels like both freehand and meticulous painting!"
"Shadow has mountains and rivers in his heart!"
"Everyone, masters, this is what a shadow is!"
"Even without looking at other paintings, I can guarantee that Shadow's paintings can definitely be ranked in the top ten or even top five on Blue Star. This painting is not limited to ancient methods. It integrates the painting style of the times based on a deep understanding of traditional brush and ink language. It is so innovative!"
…
Flower and bird painting area.
The painting is titled "King of Beasts".
Animals can be classified as flower and bird paintings. The picture uses a cliff as the background. There are clumps of dead leaves swaying in the wind beside the cliff. There is also a waterfall rushing down from the distant mountain. The valley is shrouded in clouds and mist. Looking down from the mountain, you can't see the end at a glance.
"The pen strokes are delicate and the lines are smooth!"
“This painting completely overturned my understanding of shadows!”
“Although the tiger has not moved, I seem to be able to hear its deep roar. What a shadow! What a king of beasts!”
“Too low!”
"What's too low?"
"The Literature and Art Association ranks Shadow too low, at least in the top ten!"
"This kind of visual expression has no problem making it into the top five, let alone the top ten. Look at the whole work, the combination of movement and stillness, and distance is just right. The contrast between reality and illusion is like a violent storm. This fierce tiger and its might are fully realized in form and spirit!"
…
Figure painting area.
The painting is titled "Gentlemen's Friendship".
The layers of dark rocks are bearing the wind and rain, the green trees are thick with the summer chill, in the picture a few hermits are sitting beside the rocks, birds are chirping on the rocks, there are quaint trees and bamboo branches dotted around, two people are chatting and laughing, drinking and talking about poetry, looking carefree.
“Ancient artistic conception!”
"The composition of the work is so simple, the brush and ink are mainly freehand, and the characters are free and vivid."
“It’s so beautiful.”
"The friendship between gentlemen is as pure as water."
"With plain ink brushstrokes, the painting depicts the hanging branches, slender grass leaves, gurgling water, and fresh scenery. Two hermits sit beside a rock under the shade of a tree, drinking wine and reciting poems. What a happy and leisurely life! It is truly an enviable life."
“Is this the work of a cartoonist?”
"Drawing comics is a waste of Yingzi's talent. Even among the top ten famous artists, they can't say they can beat Yingzi in such a neat, refreshing and lively Chinese painting. I am completely convinced. If anyone dares to say Yingzi is a cartoonist in the future, I will be angry with him. At least he should put Chinese painting ahead of comics. The two cannot be compared at all!"
…
Different areas!
Countless surprises!
The noisy sounds merge into one!
ox!
So cool!
Masterful painting!
The most advanced artistic enjoyment on Blue Star!
Some people's bodies were shaking slightly!
For those who love art, their souls will be transported to heaven when they are in this exhibition!
Just as one audience member lamented.
These paintings completely overturned their understanding of shadows!
Especially some viewers who have a deeper foundation in Chinese painting felt a shock from the bottom of their hearts. This is a strong artistic resonance produced by the master's hand!
Shadow shouldn't be ranked like this now!
The Literary and Art Association underestimated him, and the whole world underestimated him!
"I see!"
"Understand what?"
"I understand why the top ten famous painters are all here today to show their support, because Shadow has master-level painting skills!"
"Master level?"
"You must be a fan of Yingzi's comics, right? If you are not involved in the Chinese painting circle, you may not know that among the top ten masters of painting, only the first four are recognized as having master-level painting skills. But none of us expected that Yingzi would be the fifth person with master-level painting skills. That's why many people just said that Yingzi is qualified to be in the top five, because only those four painting masters can be compared with him at this level!"
"Then the wealthy people are probably here for this too?"
"It seems that not all wealthy people are pretentious. Some of them should be able to appreciate the subtleties of the painting. However, this still puzzles me. Even if Shadow is at the master level, today's scene is really too spectacular."
"It doesn't matter anymore."
"Shadow is going crazy this time. As the fifth master painter of Blue Star, he will definitely be ranked in the top five by the end of the year. It's not impossible for him to be in the top three!"
“Isn’t that too exaggerated?”
"It's not an exaggeration, not at all. You have no idea what the master level means. This is the pinnacle of the painting pyramid. They are all gods in the hearts of all those who learn to paint and painting enthusiasts!"
"We've always called him Shadow God."
"There are only wrong names in the world, but no wrong nicknames!"
"Shadow is a god, but not the god of comics, but the god of painting!"
…
And in the freehand painting area.
The top ten painting masters did not seem to be affected by the surrounding environment, and they all focused on the works in front of them.
"Wonderful!"
"The mountains and trees in this painting are densely painted, yet they appear light in their heaviness, and elegant in their grandeur. I am not as good as him."
"Of course you are not as good as him."
"This is a masterpiece of a master. Even among us, only Lao Li and a few others are confident that they can create a work of this level."
“This one is also quite amazing.”
"The whole piece is ingeniously laid out and rigorously written. It not only highly summarizes the charming scenery of the mountain residence, but also flows with a poetic and dreamy soft melody, and contains a charming charm beyond words. It can indeed be called magical."
"Brother Li, what do you think?"
"The paintings are of course excellent. The level of this shadow is no less than yours and mine. It can be ranked among the best on Blue Star. But didn't you say that Shadow's paintings are ingenious and comparable to the realm of perfection? Looking at them will make people feel like they are in the paintings, completely forgetting themselves and unable to extricate themselves? But as far as these paintings are concerned, they don't seem to be as magical as you say, at least they can't be called perfect. Of course, for me, this trip is worthwhile."
The old man surnamed Li smiled.
The others stared.
This old man Li actually suspected them
But the exhibition has been going on for a while, and everyone has been browsing around. Where did the Shadow Painting Soul series go? Could it be that they didn’t show it this time?
…
The other side.
Fine brushwork area.
Rich people gathered here in groups of three or five, and exclaimed in admiration as they watched.
“Wonderful, so wonderful!”
"I originally came here for the Painting Soul series, but I didn't expect that these paintings that haven't reached the level of Painting Soul could be so exquisite. Look at this painting, it can move people with its high and majestic momentum. Even if I can't buy works from the Painting Soul series in the future, it would be a consolation if I could get one of these paintings to take back."
"indeed."
"I see masculinity and inner qualities that ordinary people don't have in his paintings. He is really good at creating images and atmospheres, and there is a big picture between his brushstrokes."
"I don't understand."
"You are the most honest."
“Although I don’t understand these, and I don’t know what the master level of painting is, I admit that these paintings are indeed spectacular. However, I am more looking forward to the Soul of Painting series.”
"I was wondering that, too."
"Where did the Painting Soul series go?"
Some of these wealthy people have seen the Painting Soul series, which are works that can shock people even if they don't understand painting. However, not everyone can appreciate the beauty and artistic conception of these paintings. Even if some wealthy people can really appreciate the charm of these paintings through what they have seen and heard, given their status and position, there are also collections among painters of this level. After all, there is more than one master, Shadow, on Blue Star.
Just like those top painters.
What the wealthy care about most is the Painting Soul series.
…
The center of the exhibition hall.
Lin Yuan took in everyone's reactions.
The sounds of exclamations continued to reach my ears.
Half an hour later.
Zu Feng beside him smiled and said, "Excuse me, Mr. Xianyu, as the finale, is it time to bring out the Painting Soul series?"
Lin Yuan nodded.
This was arranged in advance.
If people were to directly view the Painting Soul series, the other ninety-nine paintings would probably become vulgar, so the finale work was temporarily hidden by the exhibition hall.
And now.
So much time has passed.
Even if visitors have not viewed all ninety-nine paintings, considering the overall length of the visit, the finale masterpiece should be shown to everyone.
"Everyone!"
Zu Feng, who couldn't wait any longer, finally spoke. With a loudspeaker, he attracted the attention of the whole audience with one sentence: "There are a total of 100 works on display today, and you can see 99 of them on site."
Swish!
The rich are cheered up!
The eyes of famous painters are shining!
Someone couldn't help but ask, "Where is the 100th one?"
Zu Feng said nothing, but just nodded to a staff member beside him.
then.
Suddenly, everyone heard the sound of machine gears turning.
Center of the exhibition hall.
There was a transparent glass display frame at the top.
Those with sharp eyes can immediately see that there is a painting placed in the glass display frame.
However, due to the distance, I couldn't see it clearly, but I felt that it seemed to be larger than all the other paintings.
This immediately aroused everyone's interest!
In fact, the first ninety-nine paintings have already aroused everyone's strong interest.
The painting that the Zhongzhou Art Exhibition Hall hid with a mechanism and was only willing to take out at this moment must be the best work!
It seems that Shadow also mentioned it during the promotion:
In this Chinese painting exhibition, there is a painting that is his most proud work, and this must be the one he is referring to!
Crash.
The crowd gathered around.
The painting fell to the ground a few seconds later.
This painting is actually five meters long!
It is the largest work in the exhibition!
The audience members who were closest to the painting were the first to see the five bold and majestic characters on the screen:
A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains!!!

ps: This book has always been ranked first in Qidian Entertainment, so I often see people criticizing Full-time Artist in the book review sections of other entertainment books. I was very angry at first and almost couldn't help but join in the PK, but later I calmed down. Those readers definitely don't know how many plots in the entertainment books they read are imitating me. It takes up so much of my writing time to deal with these people. But I can't afford to offend my own readers. Remember to only criticize the book readers for personal attacks. After criticizing, don't forget to vote for the monthly ticket. I love you guys.
