绘画中色彩的转译 Color translation in painting
这篇文章的中文版本是ChatGPT根据我的草稿写得出来的。英文部分则由ChatGPT翻译，有部分修改。The Chinese text below is generated by ChatGPT using my original manuscript. The English version has also been translated by ChatGPT, with minor corrections made by me. 我认为我画画的主要问题不在于手的熟练程度，而是在于大脑对色彩的表达能力。实际上，由于我从小就开始绘画，我的手控制能力很好，基本上可以勾勒出我想要的线条和形态。但…
Watercolor: The Manga Style Young Lady
Like other drawing enthusiasts heavily influenced by Japanese manga, I have been dreaming of becoming a manga artist for years. With all the love and hate stories, the only tools I’d ever had were pencils. As a school kid, I doodled on textbooks and exam papers, designed figures with personalities, costumed my characters, and armed them. I spent most of my middle school time creating women’s faces and immersed myself in the story of my own weaving. I didn’t color faces, nor did I draw bodies often. I had no color medium and knew nothing about body movements. I stopped… Read More »Watercolor: The Manga Style Young Lady
在玩具区的淘宝的意外收获
昨天经过书店的日漫区，竟然发现了被我称之为“如果小时候就拥有了现在说不定就是漫画家”的那种超可爱漫画式人体模型： 当场我将它称为“漫画作弊器”……哈哈，买回来以后摆动作摆得不亦乐乎，真的好玩。如果我少年时就能拥有这样的工具多好。那时候画仕女图最怕画动作，只会一直重复重复画脑袋，要不就是只能画简单单调的动作。 接着我又在亚马逊订了好几个类似的模型，有小孩子，有男人。要接着画下去才是，说不定到50岁我也可以画出好的漫画作品。总之，加油！…
2022 MN Study Trip
@ Twin City, MN —— Our school postponed all the architectural study trips during the Pandemic. Aaron and I were supposed to visit Chicago with 3rd-year students in 2021. This year we finally came to Twin City, MN, with 2nd-year. We had the same trip years ago in Fall, and this time we got a chance to appreciate the spring. The weather changed rapidly during the trip. It was a windy, wet, and cold welcome, as expected. But everything went according to plan. We visited all places and got warm receptions by almost every director/doorkeeper. I took some reference photos… Read More »2022 MN Study Trip
Watercolor: Butter and Green Coffee Cherries
I reckon that painting with watercolor is much more convenient than using acrylic. I can grab the paint box and a brush, start painting in a second and never dirt my hands. Also, watercolor needs less deck space or palette space. My coffee tree is bearing now. One hundred whole beans are expected.
Acrylic Painting 2022: A 50 / 50 Plan
I went to a bookstore and took an acrylic painting instruction book home. I’ve found less interest in acrylic, which is dry drastically fast. Instead, I’ve devoted myself to watercolor for the last few months. But I prefer to use acrylics up.I’ll follow the book to achieve 50 paints in a month. Here are the first four: 16 paints are accomplished.
