Chapter 967 - 373: My Sister Was Reborn (Part 17)
"Yeah, yeah, no wonder Big Lu likes her."
"Even such a genius works so hard, we mere mortals definitely shouldn’t waste our lives!"
"...But if I really learn from He God, I, I’m afraid I might not be able to handle it first!"
After being astonished, the two girls felt genuine admiration from their hearts.
One would say a line, and then the other, as if they were performing a comedy routine, exclaiming while walking back to their dormitory.
As for "seeking the teachings," well, let’s just forget it.
They’re just ordinary people with some talent, so why compare themselves to Immortals?
He Tiantian didn’t know about the little incident that happened in the dormitory; she was painting in her teacher Lu Hongbo’s studio.
"There’s nothing more I can teach you on a technical level!"
Teacher Lu Hongbo, who the students jokingly called "Big Lu," stood behind He Tiantian, watched her finish painting a self-portrait, and couldn’t help but sigh.
"You could copy those world-famous paintings more, or go out and see different landscapes, observe diverse people..."
Teacher Lu Hongbo truly liked students like He Tiantian, who have both talent and the willingness to work hard.
He’s a professor at the Central Academy of Fine Arts and a renowned oil painting master in the country.
When He Tiantian participated in the art entrance exam, she scored full marks in all three professional subjects, attracting the attention of many teachers.
Lu Hongbo even decided in advance to take this child as his Closed-door Disciple.
He Tiantian could not stay on campus and have more free time all because Teacher Lu Hongbo secretly supported her.
Otherwise, for a freshman, how could she be so "carefree"?
Lu Hongbo had been with He Tiantian for less than a year and found he already didn’t have much more to teach her.
It’s no exaggeration to say that on a technical level, He Tiantian already surpassed Lu Hongbo.
He Tiantian’s depictions of people had that texture, that fullness, naturally perfect.
Others’ paintings are flat, but He Tiantian can use her brush to make the figures three-dimensional and alive.
She seemed to open a door, where people no longer see a simple painting but a dazzling movie scene!
From 2D to 3D, there was no high technology, He Tiantian achieved it just with her exquisite painting skills.
Lu Hongbo had closely observed it and listened to He Tiantian explaining the details and techniques involved.
Yet, despite spending forty or fifty years on oil painting, Lu Hongbo sadly realized that even if he knew how things should be painted, he couldn’t create them!
So Lu Hongbo said that on a technical level, he had nothing more he could teach He Tiantian.
However, art is not just about technique.
Lu Hongbo hopes his little disciple can leave the studio and engage with a more vibrant and colorful world, making her work even more lively and perfect.
An artist should never work in isolation.
Lu Hongbo doesn’t want He Tiantian to become a madwoman whose life revolves only around painting.
She is human; she should experience more landscapes, live diverse lives, and feel various emotions.
Thus, she can have an endless flow of inspiration and create truly moving works.
He Tiantian isn’t really emotionally unintelligent; she certainly knows the teacher is doing this for her.
Yes, yes, she’s already crossed the threshold of technique.
Next, she indeed needs to settle down, absorb more nourishment!
So, when the first summer break came, He Tiantian planned to go "wandering."
Her real mother, Tian Shumin, naturally wanted to follow, having gotten used to looking after her daughter closely over the past year.
She’s afraid that her daughter out there alone, without her watching, might not eat well, sleep soundly, or worse, get swindled or bullied!
He Tiantian:...
Real mother, I’m just obsessed with painting, not intellectually challenged!
But, He Tiantian’s opinion was directly ignored by the He Family.
Including He Tianxin, everyone felt she shouldn’t go traveling alone.
"Alright, I’ll accompany her then."
He Tianxin had already successfully gotten into Beijing Normal University’s graduate program and had time to enjoy a good vacation during the summer.
She also wants to relax herself.
Moreover, in September, she will go to the Capital City to prepare to take over the care of He Tiantian from her real mother.
Going on a road trip with her sister in advance, the two can have an adjustment period.
"Good, you two sisters can go out together and look after each other!"
He Guotai had been separated from his wife for a year, only reuniting for a few days during the New Year with the family.
He misses his wife as well.
