An oil painting! A landscape painting!
After Su Lin tinkered for more than two hours, what he came up with were these two things that no one could understand, and he didn't know whether they could be called paintings.
Qin Yanran couldn't understand. She felt that Su Lin had just painted these two things randomly and pretended to be mysterious for two hours. Originally I had some expectations for Su Lin, but now that the painting is out, it has been confirmed that Su Lin must have painted randomly.
"What is this? That's nonsense! This brat Su Lin is really scribbling. Hey... Mr. Tang and Liu Yizhi, one is a master in the painting world and the other is a new and powerful international painter, but they actually wasted more than two hours. Time, watching this brat draw such a nonsense painting... "
Staring at Su Lin's paintings, collector Yuan Hai's little eyes were already sore. He sat on the sofa and sipped tea with Liu Yizhi. When they saw Su Lin's works, he and Liu Yizhi frowned. .
Yuan Hai couldn't understand Su Lin's paintings at all, but Liu Yizhi seemed to have some clues. Because he discovered that Su Lin didn't really have no rules at all when he was painting. He always felt that Su Lin seemed to be following some rules when painting, and looking at Su Lin's techniques and brushwork, he didn't look like a first-rater at all. Beginner to oil painting for the first time.
"The clarity of the lines can be traced in literature and science, but why? I can't find the purpose and intention of Su Lin's oil painting?"
The harder it was to understand, the more Liu Yizhi found the painting in front of him attractive and mysterious. It's an artist's intuition, someone once said. Artists are a completely different species from human beings. This means that the angles and ways in which artists think about problems are often imaginative and cannot be traced by ordinary people at all.
"The colors of this oil painting are bright and bright! But why can't I understand it? Could it be that Su Lin really painted it randomly? It shouldn't be?"
After studying it carefully for a long time, Liu Yizhi still didn't understand Su Lin's oil painting. So, he turned to Su Lin's ink painting and looked at it carefully, but he still shook his head sadly, his brows furrowed deeper, and he still couldn't understand it.
Although Liu Yizhi followed Tang Huiqin and focused on realistic oil painting among Western oil paintings. But I still have some exposure to ink painting in Chinese painting. Although it is not as in-depth as the famous domestic ink painting artists, the basic appreciation is still within my ability.
However, I can't understand oil paintings, and Liu Yizhi can't understand ink paintings either. He became a little uneasy. Just when he suspected that Su Lin was really painting randomly. He turned around and looked at his teacher Tang Huiqin. He actually nodded with a smile, and felt a shiver in his heart: "Could it be that the teacher has already seen the clues in Su Lin's two paintings?"
After all, Tang Huiqin has been dealing with paintings all her life. The sensitivity to paintings cannot be matched by anyone. When she saw Su Lin's paintings taking shape, she was still at a loss at first, and she didn't know what Su Lin's two paintings meant. But when a sudden inspiration flashed in her mind, she immediately discovered the magic of Su Lin's two paintings, and her evaluation of Su Lin became even higher.
After staring at the two paintings for a while, Tang Huiqin discovered another layer of meaning, and her eyes smiled even more weirdly. The eyes looking at Su Lin also changed from the approval before to the disbelief now.
"It's really incredible that Xiao Su was able to create two paintings like this. How does his head grow? It's really wonderful that he can conceive in this way. If these two paintings are really given away If it were given to Yi Zhi, I’m afraid it would not be less valuable than Yi Zhi’s “The Train is Coming”. In other words, in terms of artistic form, the significance of Su Lin’s painting is far greater than that of Yi Zhi’s “The Train”. "Coming"
After seeing the true meaning of Su Lin's paintings, Tang Huiqin knew that these two paintings by Su Lin would be more valuable than Liu Yizhi's "The Train is Coming". The value in Tang Huiqin's mind does not refer to the estimated price of the painting by major European collectors, but the artistic value of the painting itself.
For example, the current Liu Yizhi, because he just won the gold medal for oil painting in Vienna, and his painting is a famous and award-winning work, so in the eyes of European collectors, it is simply a piece of cake. , even if you spend a lot of money to buy it, you won’t blink an eye. The reason why collectors collect works is sometimes due to the reputation and rarity attached to the collected works, as well as other added values.
In terms of true artistic value, Liu Yizhi's "The Train is Coming" can only be regarded as a superior work among realist oil paintings, but it is just because there is a lack of representative leading figures among the international realist oil painters. , Liu Yizhi reached the top with the grand prize at this time, and he was the Chinese with the highest achievements in the international painting world in history, so his worth doubled all of a sudden. The value of his paintings naturally far exceeded the artistic value itself.
However, Liu Yizhi himself does not take these false reputations too seriously. As his teacher, Tang Huiqin can also clearly see Liu Yizhi's current achievements. This painting "The Train is Coming" is indeed excellent. It is a rare realist oil painting in the world of painting in the past fifty years. However, if you want to compare it with Su Lin's current two paintings, there is simply no comparison.
This is Tang Huiqin's true inner thought. Su Lin's two paintings, from the external form and creativity to the connotation and profound meaning, can simply reach the perfect state of uncanny workmanship. If you don't understand these two paintings, you will only think that these two paintings are graffiti like ghost drawings, and there is no way to tell the reason. Just like Liu Yizhi now, even though he is a great international painter, he still can't understand Su Lin's paintings.
However, if someone like Tang Huiqin understands Su Lin's thoughts by chance, he will forget the age and identity of Su Lin as the painter himself, and can't help but be truly impressed by these two paintings.
"Mom, I see you were frowning just now and couldn't understand these two paintings by Su Lin. Why are you looking so appreciative now? I remember that even when you looked at Brother Yizhi's paintings, you didn't show such joy. His expression? Could it be that there is really something extraordinary about these two paintings by Su Lin?"
Fang Liping didn't know much about painting, but under her mother's constant influence, she knew a little bit about it, but she couldn't compare with her daughter Yanran, let alone a great international painter like Liu Yizhi. Therefore, although Fang Liping felt that there must be something unusual about the painting that Su Lin worked so hard for two hours, she still couldn't understand the meaning and specialness of Su Lin's painting.
But now she saw her mother Tang Huiqin actually showing an extreme joy. Fang Liping had only seen this kind of joy once when her mother saw Tang Yin's "Mountain Road Pine Sound Map" collected there. . Tang Yin's "Sound of Pines on Mountain Road" can be said to be the most expensive painting by Tang Yin now. Although it cannot be compared with Western oil paintings that cost tens of millions of dollars, it is still worth about 12 million yuan. After all, Chinese painting is not as widely accepted in the world of painting as oil painting, and its recognition among Western collectors is also lower.
Fang Liping was a little shocked, shocked by her mother Tang Huiqin's attitude towards Su Lin's painting. After all, my mother was so happy about Tang Yin's "Song of Pines on the Mountain Road" because it is said that my mother's lineage was once a small family branch of Tang Yin and Tang Bohu. She was naturally proud and excited to see the famous paintings of her ancestors. Yes. But now, her mother's attitude is reflected in the incomprehensible paintings made by Su Lin, a little-known brat who can't even be called a painter. This makes Fang Liping even more convinced of her previous conjecture. This painting by Su Lin is definitely not ordinary.
"Ping'er, you don't know the mystery of Su Lin's two paintings, so naturally you can't understand them. But if you knew it, you would be amazed by Su Lin's ingenious conception. Mom has never seen less people in her life. I have been painting. When I was young, I once saw Mr. Zhang Daqian painting lotuses and Mr. Qi Baishi painting horses. I also saw some famous foreign oil painting masters painting, but I have never seen anyone painting like him. It is really interesting. Extraordinary! So interesting! We didn’t use a camera to record Su Lin’s painting process just now. It’s really a pity... "
Tang Huiqin said with some regret. This made several people at the scene more curious.
"Grandma, grandma, are you saying that these two paintings by Su Lin that no one can understand are amazing?" When Qin Yanran just asked Su Lin what he thought of these two paintings, Su Lin smiled and said nothing. Grandma understood and gave Su Lin a very high evaluation. Qin Yanran was even more curious, as if there was a cat's paw tickling her heart. What's so great about these two nonsense paintings by Su Lin
Not only Qin Yanran, but also Liu Yizhi was surprised and continued to ask his teacher Tang Huiqin: "I am stupid, I have observed these two paintings of little brother Su Lin very carefully, but I can't figure out the secret. I really can't see it." To reveal the mystery of these two paintings, please ask the teacher to explain clearly..."
"Even Mr. Tang gave such a high evaluation to these two paintings of that brat Su Lin? But in my opinion, they are all garbage?" Collector Yuan Hai also had a black line on his face and was confused.
"This... I'd better let Xiao Su explain it to you!" Tang Huiqin didn't tell the truth, and made a gesture of invitation, asking Su Lin to reveal the secret himself.
"Actually! These two paintings are not too difficult to understand, it's just that you look at them from different angles. These two paintings should be viewed in reverse..." Su Lin said with a smile when the answer was about to be revealed. (To be continued...)
