Drawing challenge - Spring 春兆 | 齐白石杯 月旦评

I've spent 2.5 hours on this artwork. The tools involved were Copic markers on Copic sketchbook that was specially designed for marker paint.

This is also an entry for @angelina6688 's drawing competition with the theme 'Spring'.

Finally, I got the chance to put my new 36 color Copic markers into real use. I had struggles in applying these advanced markers to achieve what I used to achieve with other tools. But after all, I would say it was totally worth the learning curve. I'm convinced that Copic is the top marker maker in the world and they are second to none. They are so expensive for a reason(380 yen for a single marker!). Now I can sell away the ordinary market set that I bought from China a few months back without worry.

As for the subject, I chose a flower that blossoms in the snow at the end of winter. Snow and flower make a strong contrast for winter and spring, I think it is the best sign of spring arrival.

此作品花了两个半小时来完成,用的是久违的 36 色 Copic 马克笔在也是 Copic 出版的马克笔画本上作画。出乎意料的花了比预期还多的时间来完成,主要是第一次使用具有颜色性的马克笔,许多混合调色的技巧都还很陌生,尤其是雪的效果就琢磨了好久。

这同时也是用于参加由 @angelina6688 所举办的“春”绘画比赛

每次参加新的一次绘画比赛,其中最有趣的就是根据主题选材料,可以说每次想要画些什么都会费煞思量,以至偶尔迟迟无法下笔。好的选材就是成功的一半,这是我坚信的。有好些绘画比赛都是由于想不出有什么题材可以很独特的切入主题而放弃不参加。关于上一期的主题“梦”,尽管范围很广,似乎画什么都不会错,甚至我可以画一画心仪已久的球鞋,而说成这是梦想中的礼物,想必也可以浑水摸鱼,一并被评委通过参加资格。但也说过了,与其这样为了参加而参加,还不如不参加

而这次的主题“春”,我想表现的是“春天”,又是一个选材难题,挣扎了好几天,还好最后还是想到了。

这次使用的是“春暖花开”来暗示春的降临,但如果只画开花的景象,未免也太普通了。于是就想到了使用冰雪和花苞初开的小黄花作为强烈的对比。生命力顽强的小花,在寒土里潜伏了整个冬季为的就是等到这一刻春的气息。温暖的阳光刚一回到岗位,冬季尾声的遍地冰雪尚未融化,小花早已迫不及待的破土而出了。

没什么现象更能诠释这春的先兆了。

评语:“金英翠萼带春寒, 黄色花中有几般? 凭君语向游人道, 莫作蔓青花眼看。”我想用白居易的这首诗来做点评最恰当不过了。画者用丰富细腻的笔触画出迎春花刚刚绽放的模样,花下是几颗花骨朵和尚未融化的积雪。完美诠释了“春兆”这一主题。

吓得我还以为你作了首诗。多谢点评!

哇哇哇 这个太有感觉了

多谢多谢,让人产生共鸣我就成功了一半。

This is so amazing!

Thanks for the kind words.

冰雪中初開的小黃花,意境很棒!對未來充滿了希望~
結果雪的效果是怎麼處理的?通常畫水彩的話,會想到的方法就是撒鹽巴吧

谢谢小猫女那么高的评价。

哎哟,问到点上了啊。就使用浅色的马克笔以点的方式布满背景,也要注意色调渐变。最后用白墨笔把发亮的冰雪点出来。

這麼細心的過程,你還可以2個多小時就畫完,想來下筆時應該是胸有成竹。

还真的不是,决定要画的时候是觉得应该挺容易,画到一半才发现不是这么一回事。😓

赞,很生动,第一眼看还以为是照片!

多谢啦鸟兄。我是比较倾向写实派的,所以正常啦。

太用心了!!!!!

无用心不画画,呵呵。

.... 天哪,点进来看之前一直以为是张雪地里盛开的小黄花照片.....
👍👍👍

多谢夸奖。真的第一眼就看出来是雪地?时间没浪费,太好了哈哈。

真的,而且是那种冰雪初融的feel,倔强怒放的小黄花~

😄

@fr3eze 哥的这幅画,让我想起一句话 - “像天边那朵黄雪莲”~

黄雪莲,很不错的名字

Awesome as always Mr.Fr3eze.
A lovely ode to the arrival of the new season (finally!)

Yeah new season but I can't really feel it in tropical country here.

Thanks @osm0sis, and I just realized we have the same name format(one number in between)!

True. Except, I thought I was cool when I made mine, but it ends up being a massive fail and very confusing as noone can tell it's a zero and not a capital o. FML!

Yeah, same thought. Name like this is not easy for people to remember nor to spell. Maybe it was because I would get this serious on Steem, who would have predicted this right? LOL

Exactly! And there's no turning back now... we're stuck with our names. FOREVEEER. AAAaaaahhhh!

HAHA shit, this is the true forever we are talking about.

That's right! We're doomed 😜

哇,真的好厉害啊,膜拜膜拜!画得超有意境的!

过奖了,就是为了这意境才画了这许久。

真好看,还以为是软件做出来的

看来我拍照技术不错😉

好中意那水墨画的渲染技巧

水墨画?这幅全部都是用马克笔画出来的

Amazing! I thought it was a photo of the flower.

The power of Copic!

真好看

好不容易用呢这马克笔。

哇塞 ,这更厉害了,马克笔本就很难掌握,又用马克笔画出了水彩和丹青的效果,男神就是男神,为男神打call

哈哈多谢。其实主要是笔的功劳,去搜搜什么是copic吧。世界顶尖的马克画笔,当然价格也很贵…但是物有所值,有机会可以研究一下。

@fr3eze, 棒棒哒~~~ img

顺祝狗年汪汪汪,旺旺旺,玩玩玩!嘿嘿...

年都过完一个月了...

Beautiful 3d. Resteemed

Thanks buddy.

@fr3eze, 月旦评我从来不抢板凳!

我这里只有沙发,哪来的板凳?
