Chapter 982 Self-Portrait
If you are beautiful, you will look good no matter what you do.
Even if I am just painting quietly, there are a lot of people praising how beautiful it is in the barrage.
"Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. I've just started writing." Luo Quan glanced at the barrage and said to himself that fans nowadays are really exaggerated. She didn't even tick the line a few times before she started.
But after watching the comments carefully, I realized that the fans were praising her own lines.
"Luobao, what are you talking about? We are praising how beautiful we are."
"It seems that you are very dissatisfied with our compliments. Are you tired of hearing them too much?"
"Luo Bao, you are getting more and more arrogant now."
"Speaking of which, Luo Baozhen can do oil painting, but can he do ordinary comics? Just like notebooks."
"Books = ordinary comics? What kind of brain circuit!"
"I have read the book where Luo Bao is the protagonist."
"Please give me my name!"
"Insert the eye."
"It seems to be called "The Most Beautiful Night of Insult in the World"."
"Here I go, this title looks really exciting."
………………
Before the discussion lasted too long, Luo Quan directly arranged a thirty-day ban package and reminded: "This is a green and healthy live broadcast room. There is no discussion about this one-month ban. Do you have any objections? "
This attitude aroused unanimous approval from netizens:
"Okay! If a bastard like this is left in the world, it will only make fans more expensive. If you don't block it, it won't make the people angry!"
"That's it, I support this decision with both legs!"
"You guys are turning against each other faster than flipping through a book. You're going to sell it when you're done with it, right?"
"Luobao is quite resolute in this regard. The Internet is not a place outside the law. I advise everyone to be cautious in what they say and do."
………………
Whether you are joking or creating a program effect, the scale needs to be grasped.
This kind of thing about the heroine of this book has always existed objectively, and she has seen it a lot herself.
Some of them were well painted, and some were crudely made, but she always had a strange feeling when she saw them, and her heart was even more disturbed than reading the comment section.
In fact, it’s not just books, but also face-swapping videos. These treatments are available to popular domestic female stars.
But due to environmental reasons, these videos almost never appear in my field of vision, and no one even dares to spread them widely.
Because whether it is spreading prohibited information or infringing on the right of portrait and reputation, you will be subject to lawsuits, so this kind of stuff is usually kept for yourself to enjoy, and few dare to share it.
Gray things should exist obscurely and should not be put on the table.
Although this fan just mentioned it, he helped many people open the door to a new world.
In order to prevent more flowers of the motherland from being harmed in the live broadcast room, Luo Quan decisively banned this person.
She is not doing it for herself, but purely for positive energy.
As for Danmaku, who died at the speed of light after seeing the hero appear on the stage, he immediately became anxious and did not dare to discuss related topics anymore.
The barrage density has also become sparse, and I don’t know if I turned to the UC browser.
She couldn't control this kind of thing, just like she couldn't control the books the painters drew on her.
I can only stop thinking too much and focus on my own affairs.
Generally speaking, hyper-realistic paintings take a lot of time, and they are not only time-consuming, but also mentally draining.
Like other genres of painting, when you are inspired, you can directly draw a few patterns on the canvas or draw a few lines to create an abstract work that satisfies you.
It doesn't matter if the content is small, as long as it expresses the artist's emotions and artistic language, it can be called a masterpiece.
But hyperrealism is different. If you don’t make your work look like a photo, it doesn’t deserve to be called hyperrealism.
If you want to draw like this, you first need to observe it carefully and keep in mind what the lighting looks like from all angles.
Finally, he uses miraculous techniques to put everything he observes on the canvas.
Many people say that since the advent of high-definition cameras, surreal paintings have lost their meaning.
This statement is actually a bit biased, because anyone who has done a little research knows that what the human eye can see exceeds that of most ultra-clear cameras.
Oil paintings and photos are definitely two completely different concepts.
Even if it is a hyper-realistic painting, the texture cannot be compared to that of a photo.
Therefore, hyper-realistic paintings not only have not lost their meaning, but are the ultimate expression of a painter's skills.
Of course, technology and art cannot be confused. Technology that reaches its peak can be called art, and poor technology does not necessarily mean it is not art. It mainly depends on the final work.
What Luo Quan wants to present to everyone is an ultra-high-definition self-portrait with the texture of an oil painting.
To this end, she even redeemed Leng Jun’s character binding card.
As a leader in the hyper-realistic genre in China, his techniques are definitely among the best in the world, and many of his paintings have been auctioned for over ten million dollars.
But what’s interesting is that Leng Jun doesn’t think of himself as a hyper-realistic painter. He thinks that he is just picky about details, which is why he paints like this.
But no matter what he said, it is certain that the works he painted belong to the hyper-realistic genre.
And now Luo Quan has Leng Jun's technology and the speed of AI painting.
The image she wants to paint has already been generated in her mind. Through constant correction and modification in the mirror, she can quickly outline everything she wants on the canvas.
Therefore, fans saw Luo Quan waving the paintbrush at a speed unimaginable to ordinary people.
The patterns on the canvas also began to become abstract and gradually became concrete.
Luo Quan said that what she was going to paint this time was a realistic work, so when the abstract effect first came out, everyone was still talking about why Luo Quan had temporarily changed his painting style?
Only now do I realize that she only drew a large frame.
After the details were filled in one by one, Luo Quan looked up to the sky at a 45-degree angle, and a smiling Luo Quan appeared on the canvas.
Even if the painting is not over yet, even if there is only one head, even the hair is not finished yet.
But the realistic effect, like a photo posted on canvas, really amazed all the viewers.
"Holy shit, there's something about this."
"It looks so real, I can even see the fuzz on my cheeks."
"There is also a scene where the upturned ends of eyelashes intersect with the eyeshadow. This is so detailed!"
"This technique is outrageous!"
………………
Fans' praises came as expected, and Luo Quan also showed the same gentle smile as in the painting: "Don't worry, everyone, the real magic will be performed later, and the current work is not even half as realistic as the finished product. .”
What is pretentiousness? This is called showing off.
And even if everyone knew she was faking, they could only say one awesome thing.
It has already reached this level of realism, but it is still only a semi-finished product, and there is still room for improvement.
Fans can no longer evaluate the level of Luo Quan's skills. It feels like he can enter the Academy of Fine Arts and become a teacher.
She is truly a genius that is rare to see in a century. Even in the field of oil painting, which she has never set foot in before, the skills she displays are equally astonishing.
There will be one less thing that Luo Quan is not good at in people's minds after today.
Amid the endless praise from fans, Luo Quan sat on the bench for five hours, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
I didn't eat anything during this period, so I ate two Snickers bars, drank a bottle of Nutrition Express, and then went to the toilet once.
Speaking of which, she hadn't sat for such a long time in a long time.
Even during the busiest time in the cinema, she would not sit on the stool for more than two hours.
In the past, I was afraid of getting hemorrhoids from sitting for too long, but now I want to use a more scientific way of working to achieve both leisure and efficiency.
But today was definitely an exception. Because it was the first time for him to paint oil paintings, Luo Quan hoped that he could finish it in one go, so he basically didn't leave much rest time.
Of course, with her current physical condition, painting for fifty hours, let alone five hours in a row, wouldn't be a big problem.
It's just that the long hours of painting made the fans who watched her live broadcast very tired.
It's funny to say that Luo Quan, who had been painting all the time, didn't complain that he was tired. Instead, the fans who were lying on the bed looking at their mobile phones screamed one by one, saying: I finally finished the painting, but I'm exhausted.
"Next, it's time to witness the miracle."
Luo Quan slowly pushed the side-facing panel towards the audience.
Halfway through the painting, she had already twisted the canvas, wanting to save the suspense until it was finished.
So fans can't see anything substantial except her serious and beautiful face.
Although they never get tired of looking at Luo Bao's face, they still want to see the paintings she is painting now.
The sense of expectation between the two is different, but Luo Quan knows how to set up suspense.
No matter what fans say, her drawing board is facing the camera sideways, allowing people to only vaguely see some colors.
Only now has everyone finally seen the finished product.
Later, fans finally understood what Luo Quan was doing in the second half.
She added light and shadow effects that are completely in line with scientific principles to this self-portrait that can be said to be fake, making the overall look more realistic.
It seems that just using an ultra-high-definition camera is not enough to describe it. Luo Quan in this painting seems to have come alive, and Luo Quan standing outside the canvas is like twin sisters. If you don’t look carefully, you can’t even see it. Can't tell the difference!
"This looks so real. Can it really be called a miraculous skill?"
"Luo Bao, you don't just have some knowledge of oil painting skills, you are simply a master!"
"We are all discussing technology, as long as I think Luo Bao in the painting is really beautiful?"
"It is indeed beautiful. That smile makes the years quieter and gentler."
"This is Luo Quan's self-portrait, can you please?"
"Haha, you seem to be so smooth. Even if it can be restored to 50% of my own charm, it is already incredible. What's more, this painting is almost 100% restored."
"I can only say that Luo Quan's level of hyper-realistic painting is unparalleled among her peers, but I don't know how good she is at abstract painting."
………………
Abstraction and realism are two different concepts.
The former pursues emotions and artistic conception more, and has a certain threshold of appreciation. Unlike the realism school, where good or bad can be seen at a glance.
Luo Quan himself actually said that he doesn’t like abstract art because it is not an art form that the general public can understand, and it is a little more difficult to feel its beauty.
In comparison, she prefers impressionism.
According to her understanding, Impressionism absorbed a lot of the essence of Japanese Ukiyo-e, and was unique in depicting scenery, so it was not very difficult to appreciate.
The difference between it and abstraction is that if you put Impressionist paintings farther away, ordinary people can feel its charm.
As for abstract art, no matter whether you look at it from a distance or up close or from left to right, ordinary people don’t understand it.
As for Van Gogh's post-impressionism, that's another story.
At present, she doesn't need to show so many things to her fans. Just such a hyper-realistic self-portrait is enough to cause a sensation in the art world.
As before, you have to leave your own mark after your work is completed.
Xiaoyu walked leisurely in front of Luo Quan, her chin raised as if to say that I must press this paw.
As its old profession, probably no one knows more about sealing than it does.
Luo Quan smiled and handed over the red ink pad. Xiaoyu dipped some ink pad on her paws, and then pressed it on Luo Quan's name in the lower right corner of the painting.
If this were placed in ancient times, high and low would be an imperial edict.
"Choose a name."
"What should I call it?"
"How about the most beautiful in the world?"
"So tacky."
"It's just, isn't there anything that sounds better?"
………………
Regarding the naming of this painting, fans started to discuss it.
And Luo Quan didn't think of so many nice or meaningful names beforehand, so he chose the easiest way: "Let's just call it Luo Quan. Since the painting is of myself, I will name it after myself."
………
"Haha, isn't that too hasty?"
"Just call me Luo Quan. It's too easy for you. It's not as beautiful as mine, the most beautiful one in the world."
"In comparison, I still think Luo Quan is better. Although it is true that the world is the most beautiful, it sounds too embarrassing."
"The name of the oil painting does not need to be too fancy, just call it whatever it is. Is the name of Mona Lisa's smile very special? Isn't it still a world-famous painting?"
"Indeed, the value of a painting is determined by its content, not its name."
"Speaking of which, how much can this painting fetch? Can anyone give me an estimate?"
"I feel that Luo Bao's painting could sell for at least 10 million US dollars."
"Ten million? You underestimate Luo Quan. I think it's at least 50 million! Understand the applause."
………………
Luo Quan didn't know if there was any applause, but she knew that after this painting appeared on the Internet, the praise it would receive would be overwhelming.
