The uncle is 1.89 meters tall, which is a head taller than Yin Yuan.
His name is Xue Weidong, and he is a cheerful person.
He brought several bottles and jars containing pickled eggplants, pickled peppers and dried radish.
"Uncle Xue, why are you bringing these things?"
Xue Weidong chuckled and said, "The problem is that we Lu people have a salty, spicy and sour eating habit. We like to eat meat buns, steamed buns, pancakes and sweet potato porridge, and when we eat, we like to mix it with garlic. If there is no garlic, just mix it with it." Pickled eggplants, pickled peppers, and pickled radish are also good. You can mix them in for breakfast to make them taste better."
Yin Yuan also understands that everyone's eating habits are different. They have been developed since childhood and cannot be changed.
Students are signing up today, and the formal training will not begin until tomorrow.
Yin Yuan knew that Xue Weidong won a third prize in this painting exhibition for painting a maple forest.
Autumn, when maple leaves dye the mountains red, has its own characteristics.
He was just curious: "Uncle Xue's hometown is in Lu Province, why did he end up in Tuocheng?"
Xue Weidong said: "I studied at a not-so-reputable art academy for a few years. After I graduated, I was assigned to be an art teacher in a middle school in Tuocheng. I have been working there for 20 years. I married a wife and had children in Tuocheng, and settled in Tuocheng. My parents from Lu Province Not here either, I rarely go back to my hometown. Sigh..."
Naturally, he also knew that Yin Yuan won the first and third prizes in this exhibition.
Now living in the same dormitory with Yin Yuan, he was extremely excited.
"Although I am older than you, my painting skills are not as good as yours. You can ask me to be my teacher. I hope I can learn a lot from you during these two months of study. I hope you will not hesitate to teach me."
Yin Yuan said: "Uncle Xue is welcome, let's learn from each other."
The dormitory they live in is about 40 square meters, with a bathroom. In addition to two beds, there are also two large painting tables.
Considering that all students are painting, the desk is also equipped with drawing paper, paints, various brushes, and even spice boards are ready.
Xue Weidong said: "The Provincial Academy of Fine Arts is different. The treatment given to us is really good. Free accommodation and free food, and even painting learning tools are prepared."
Even the mats, quilts and pillowcases on the bed are new. There are many green trees in the art courtyard. There are probably a lot of mosquitoes. Mosquito nets are hung on every bed.
There is also a box of mosquito coils under the window.
The giggles of several female students could be heard in the corridor outside.
Eight female practitioners live in four rooms on the east side, and ten male practitioners live in five rooms on the west side.
The three middle rooms are empty.
Xue Weidong said with a smile: "With Secretary Yu's arrangements for accommodation, aren't you afraid that there will be some scandalous news between some male and female students?"
Yin Yuan thought that among the eighteen, more than half should be married people. Of course, there are also five or six handsome boys and girls who are still young.
"Even if we don't live on the same floor, it's normal for stories of sex-picking to happen."
Xue Weidong said: "Talk about love is what you young people do. We old men are not interested in that, but to find ways to make money to support our families. After two months of study, I will be able to reach the same level of painting as you, and I will be satisfied." Already."
He also asked with interest: "Xiao Yin, are you married?"
Yin Yuan said: "I got married last year and my child is two months old."
He took out the picture of his son that he had drawn at home and showed it to him.
Xue Weidong said happily: "The model in that award-winning painting is your wife, right? I found that your paintings of characters are very vivid, and of course your paintings of scenery also have their own characteristics. This doll is really cute..."
At this time, several female students at the door stopped, poked their heads in, and said happily: "What a cute little doll. Brother Yin has painted another masterpiece. Can we also enjoy it?"
Cai Lihua won the second prize in the exhibition, Li Weihong won the third prize, and Yang Juezi and Ling Xiaoyan won the potential award.
Everyone knows that among this group of students, Yin Yuan has the highest level of painting.
All four of them are good at drawing figures.
So I am particularly interested in Yin Yuan's painting "Beauty in the Snow".
Yin Yuan warmly invited them into the dormitory.
"Welcome all beautiful painters to correct me."
In the memory of Yin Yuan's previous life, a few years later, these female painters were well-known in the province and achieved good results.
In his previous life, he lived in Guangdong for many years and did not achieve anything to show off in the painting world.
On the contrary, after returning to my hometown and opening a building materials store, I used my spare time to paint and submit my paintings to relevant illustrated magazines. I participated in several art exhibitions organized by the Pingxiang City Federation of Literary and Art Circles, won several awards, and gradually became famous.
Later, he was absorbed as a member of the Municipal Artists Association.
He also made some achievements in the painting world.
Now he has the memory of his previous life, so his painting skills have been accumulated over many years.
Several people spoke highly of Yin Yuan's painting "My Little Fatty", and like Xue Weidong, they immediately guessed that the girl in "Beauty in the Snow" was his lover.
"Brother Yin is so happy. My lover is so beautiful and my son is so cute. I really envy you!"
Just now, they all saw Yin Yuan driving a luxury car worth hundreds of thousands to check in.
His family must be financially well off.
Rich and talented, young, handsome and sunny in appearance, if he is not married yet, he is not a good candidate to pursue.
Alas, why does the outstanding handsome guy already have his heart set for a long time.
Several female students chatted non-stop in Yin Yuan's dormitory, making other male students very envious.
A few sociable people also squeezed in to join in the appreciation and discussion.
At this time, Yu Yangguang went up to the third floor and saw everyone gathered in Room 302 and at the door. He smiled and asked everyone, "Are you satisfied with the accommodation? Is the living environment okay?"
He said that this building is a place specially used by the Academy of Fine Arts to hold painter training.
He introduced the content of this study and training.
Professional painters will point out the problems you have in painting at this stage and teach you how to overcome them, so that you can make great progress in just two months of study.
There are six famous painters among you eighteen, who are equivalent to your professional mentors.
One person leads three students, during which the instructor painter provides professional guidance.
Of course, I will also take some courses on professional painting knowledge and skills.
He asked: "Have any of you made outstanding achievements in sculpture or printmaking?"
Everyone said no.
"If not, maybe we should talk about sculpture and printmaking as little as possible. Try to talk about sketching, Chinese painting, gouache painting, watercolor painting and oil painting."
He took out meal tickets and gave them to everyone.
"You and the students from the Academy of Fine Arts go to the window to buy food, but with your meal ticket you can order any three dishes and one soup."
Meal tickets are divided into breakfast and lunch.
It is marked as a meal ticket for professional painter students.
Two months of meal tickets can be collected at once.
In principle, there are no classes on Saturdays and Sundays, free activities.
It is recommended that out-of-town students live in the college. Students who live nearby can go home on Saturdays and Sundays as long as they ensure that they do not miss classes.
Secretary Yu told everyone the phone number of his office and said that he lived in the office on the second floor of the administrative office building opposite. If the phone couldn't be reached, you could call him at any time.
When dinner time came, Yin Yuan went to the school cafeteria with everyone.
There are thousands of students in the huge cafeteria, and a long row of windows is filled with students.
Yin Yuan felt like he was back in the age of studying.
He and Xue Weidong stood at a window where there were slightly fewer students, and the other students stood behind them.
Among the dozen or so people, Xue Weidong is the oldest, in his forties, the others are in their thirties, and of course there are also a few in their twenties.
Compared with students in their early twenties, they appear more mature and steady.
Of course it also attracted the attention of the students.
Someone whispered.
"They are a creative building. Last time the cutting-edge painting
The exhibition award-winning painter is a new student. "
"It is held every year, and the winners will receive professional training at the Academy of Fine Arts for two months."
"These people are all quasi-painters with many years of painting experience and certain painting skills."
Yin Yuan and others took their meal tickets to the window to order food, and of course they could also enjoy special treatment.
You can order any three dishes and one soup, you can add as much as you like, and you can take as much rice as you like. .
I can’t say the quality of the food is great, but it’s definitely much better than outside fast food restaurants.
Everyone gathered around two dining tables.
Xue Weidong also brought out the pickled peppers and other treasures he brought to entertain everyone.
Yin Yuan was not polite and added some pickled chili peppers, which were spicy, sour and tasted pretty good.
After dinner, he and Xue Weidong walked around the Academy of Fine Arts.
There is a central lake behind the stadium. Some students squatted by the lake and fed the koi in the lake with bread crumbs.
In the distance, three or five white geese were foraging among the water plants by the lake.
There are students drawing with drawing boards.
Behind the bamboo groves in the back, there were several couples hugging and kissing.
"Today's young people are really open-minded and don't shy away from anything."
"Hugging each other is childish. When it gets dark, there are passionate battlefields everywhere on these grasslands and under the woods."
Xue Weidong whispered to Yin Yuan: "I used a sketchbook to draw a dozen images of women standing on the streets. I will show them to you when I get back."
Yin Yuan thought to himself: I never expected that Teacher Xue has such a hobby.
"This is a special group. If their bitterness can be captured in a picture, the picture should also be valuable."
He said: "There is a female artist who drew a series of "Miner Pictures" specifically based on miners. Previously, a painter named Jiang Zhaohe used a piece of rubble as the background to depict more than a hundred refugees who suffered from war disasters. The image has a strong artistic appeal and has a profound influence on the modern painting world'"
Xue Weidong said: "How can we compare with these two seniors? This phenomenon exists in every city now. I think they are a special group. Because there is an alley behind our school dormitory, and people come and go at night. You can see it from the balcony of my house. I usually like to draw pictures on the balcony when I have free time. Once I got interested, I drew a few street girls, and then I drew a few..."
Back in the dormitory, he handed the sketchbook to Yin Yuan to read.
Yin Yuan read it from beginning to end.
Good guys, all of them are painted lifelike and stand in front of you like real people.
It is simply a picture of various aspects of life.
The surrounding environment includes dilapidated old houses in alleys and moss-covered wall tiles.
If you say you're not familiar with the environment, I won't believe it even to death.
Living next door were two young men, one named Gao Qiwen and the other named Xu Changding.
When they saw Yin Yuan coming back, they came over and rushed through the door.
Knocked on the door.
"Hello, gentlemen, don't bother me, right?"
Yin Yuan nodded and said, "Come in to drink tea and chat, why are you so polite?"
Xue Weidong put away the sketchbook in time.
Yin Yuan brought a tea set and tea leaves in the car, and Gao Qiwen took the initiative to take the water bottle and go to the hot water bucket in the corridor to fill it with boiling water.
Yin Yuan also took out cigars to entertain them.
The two young men said they didn't smoke, but Lao Xue was very addicted to cigarettes and smoked one cigarette after another.
"Which city in Guangdong are the two brothers from?"
Gao Qiwen said it was from the ancient town of Xiangshan City, and Xu Changding said it was from Guancheng.
Both of them were from other provinces and came to Guangdong to work. They were only in their early twenties. They usually like painting. When they saw an advertisement for an exhibition of emerging painters, they tried to submit their paintings to the exhibition. Unexpectedly, they won the Potential Novice Award.
Of course they were very excited to be able to attend the Academy of Fine Arts.
Yin Yuan, who lives next door, is the first prize winner and the only painter who drives here by himself, which shows that his economic conditions are good.
Naturally, I hope that I can use this time to get acquainted with him and have the opportunity to learn from him.
Yin Yuan said: "I am now from Jiangming City, and my hometown is Pingxiang, Gan Province. I used to be a wage earner, but later I opened a decoration company and a building materials factory..."
"It turns out that Brother Yin is still the big boss. If only we knew how to do business like you."
Gao Qiwen said that he worked in a lighting factory and did statistics.
This time the painting is also a scene of a shop painter spraying paint.
He said: "The salary of a spray painter like this will not exceed 500 yuan a month."
I am considered a foreman, but my boss only pays me 600 yuan, and I have to work overtime until ten o'clock every night.
There is a thriving scene everywhere in the factory, and the factory has been busy with orders in recent years.
In fact, factory owners also earn low processing fees.
Yin Yuan said: "As far as I know, there are many lighting factories in the ancient town, and some simple accessories are outsourced to private parties for processing. Many people undertake the processing of accessories from large factories, and they also make a lot of money."
It’s not that there are no ways to make money, it’s just that there is no effort to discover them.
Gao Qiwen said: "It is true that the boss I am working for now started his business by contracting parts processing. This guy must be worth millions now."
However, he believed that he still had no talent for business. After working eight or nine hours a day, he would be satisfied if he was in a good mood and painted a painting.
Now that I have the opportunity to study at the Academy of Fine Arts, I will definitely devote my energy to painting in the future.
If you can become a painter, your future will be bright.
Yin Yuan suggested that he paint more images of workers in lighting factories. Lao Xue painted street girls and Gao Qiwen painted lighting workers, both of which were unique perspectives.
It's just that he hasn't figured out yet whether he is better at painting landscapes or people.
In his previous life, he continued to paint flowers and birds for a period of time, including pheasants, bamboo rats, and rabbits in the mountains and forests.
He also has certain skills in painting flowers and birds.
When Xu Changding said that he only liked traditional Chinese paintings of flowers and birds, he also had a common topic with the other party.
