Soul Painter

　　 The voyage from China to London is about 12 hours.

　　 minus another 7 hours of time difference.

　　 Gao Fan departed early in the morning and arrived in the morning.

　　 A translator and guide who picked up the plane was waiting for him at London Heathrow Airport.

　　 That is a Chinese uncle named Xiang Hua, forty-nine years old, living in London for nearly 30 years, is a real snake.

　　 After the two greeted briefly, Xiang Hua took Gao Fan to his extended Lincoln, and planned to take Gao Fan to the hotel to rest first.

　　 Gao Fan asked Xiang Hua to take him directly to the British Museum.

　　 The airport and the British Museum are in the same area. This area also includes famous buildings such as Buckingham Palace, Tower of London, London Eye, Big Ben, Houses of Parliament, Westminster Abbey and so on.

So Gao Fan sat in the extended Lincoln, looking at the exotic buildings in front of him from the car window, as if he suddenly broke into the city’s hundreds of years of history, and introduced Hua to Gao Fan. , This is the London Eye, this is Big Ben, that is Harrods, and that is Chinatown.

　　 In another forty minutes, Gao Fan is already in the palace of art he dreams of.

　　 The British Museum counts as the basement level, with a total of 7 floors, a total of more than 100 exhibition halls, and more than 4 million exhibits.

　　 Gao Fan originally allocated one week for the British Museum.

But when he saw Tintoretto's "God of War and Venus" in the 6th hall, he couldn't help but marvel at the gorgeous colors and sensory excitement shown by this big disciple of Titian. This is a great master, and at the same time He must have been exposed to a second-stage skill similar to'desire'.

　　 So Gao Fan's time was stolen.

　　 When he regained consciousness, three hours had passed.

This is followed by Little Holbein’s "Ambassador" in Hall 4, which accurately reproduces the scene of two French ambassadors to the United Kingdom at Westminster Abbey in London, including globes, daggers, skeletons, books, and various tools. Objects such as, musical instruments and instruments have profound meanings. They are 100% full restoration of the scene at the time, but they are not super-realistic camera-like re-enactments.

　　 Gao Fan was deceived here for another two hours. Holbein's creative ideas and techniques fascinated him. He thought it was realism, but it was a kind of artistic processing.

　　 come down again.

　　 "Bacchus and Ariadney" by Titian in Hall 10. This is a robber, and Gao Fan was delayed for nearly four hours.

　　 Titian is best at portraying gods as women full of human desires, which allows Gao Fan to see the use of ‘distortion’ skills. Titian must have one or two second-stage skills.

　　 So on the first day he arrived in London, he started at the British Museum and ended up at the British Museum.

　　 Today happened to be Friday, and the British Museum extended its closing time to 20 o'clock, which gave Gao Fan and Titian an extra two and a half hours.

At 20 o'clock, Gao Fan walked out of the museum on time and saw in the parking lot. Xiang Hua was waiting for him with a hot dog leaning on the extended Lincoln. For an instant, Gao Fan had a doubt, who is he and who I am. What am i doing here?

　　 "MrGAO!" Xiang Hua greeted Gao Fan.

　　 finally called Gao Fan from the art world back to reality. At the same time, Gao Fan felt a bowel sound in his stomach. The sound was so loud that he could even hear Xiang Hua who was a few steps away.

　　 "I thought you wouldn't be hungry." Xiang Hua smiled and handed Gao Fan a hot dog.

　　 "Thank you~" Gao Fan said very gratefully. He stuffed this hot dog into his stomach in two or three bites, and it felt like it was really worthwhile in the world.

　　 After getting in the car.

　　 Xianghua said to Gao Fan: "MrGAO, how did you get today?"

　　 "It's as high as Buckingham Palace~" Gao Fan replied with a smile.

At this time, the extended Lincoln turned a corner. The red postbox on the streets of London was like a marker, dividing the corner between the two streets. A man in a black trench coat was standing on the side of the postbox. He was wearing Round-brimmed hat, with a cigarette pinched in his hand, his eyes fixed on the car Gao Fan was riding in.

　　 When meeting Gao Fan through the car window next door, the man named Danny Laufer also touched the brim of his hat with one hand, as if saying hello to Gao Fan.

　　 At this moment, the whisper of the world suddenly appeared in Gao Fan's ear.

　　 That sound like a seed breaking open:

　　 is young shoots growing out of soil.

　　 is a young bird cracking the egg skin.

　　 is the first call of a newborn baby after appearing in this world.

　　 is everything that is alive.

　　 It’s interesting...Gao Fan thought to himself that Danny Laufer was showing him mystery.

Is 　　 temptation?

　　 What does he want from me?

Gao Fan did not take Danny Laufer to heart. He spent less than half an hour on the mysterious thinking behind it. In fact, Gao Fan could see Danny Laufer's weirdness on the plane. , But at this moment, Gao Fan, all in his mind is the British Museum, all are Titian, Caravaggio, Rubens, Rembrandt...

Especially Rembrandt, the master of light and shadow, he further expanded Caravaggio’s chiaroscuro skills. He must have the master skill of light and shadow. Gao Fan will focus on seeing Rembrandt tomorrow, and he didn’t bring a canvas today. And paper, pen and oil paint, I will bring it tomorrow... I thought it would be fine to see it, but men, when they are satisfied, they still have to get started.

　　 "Uncle Xiang, my itinerary needs to be changed." Gao Fan said to Xiang Hua who was driving, "I will stay in London for a few more days~www.wuxiax.com~Okay, how long?" Xiang Hua asked.

The British Museum has more than 2,000 oil paintings. Remove the ones that are not on display, and then remove the half of them that are not worthy of reference... In fact, they probably can’t be removed. All those that can be included in the collection of the British Museum are fine works. There are themed exhibitions, it will probably take more than two hundred days~

　　 "One year," Gao Fan said.

Ok? Xiang Hua turned his head to Gao Fan in surprise.

Hey~ Gao Fan laughed, although Ms. J.K’s arrangement is only one month, but then he can pay at his own expense, it doesn’t matter if he has no money, he just saw a lot of homeless people on the streets of London, they can sleep on the street with their clothes wrapped , London has an oceanic climate, and winter is not too cold...Of course, visa is a problem, but STK should be able to solve it, after all, it is a worldwide organization.

　　 Gao Fan returned to the hotel.

　　 Lawrence arranged for him to live in Hilton.

　　 Just settled down, Lawrence called: "I heard you plan to live in London for a year?"

　　 "Yes, uncle, do you think it is possible for me to transfer to the Royal Academy of Fine Arts? Isn't the old man a professor here? There must be some connections, right?" Gao Fan asked.

　　 Lawrence took a few deep breaths over there.

　　 He knew that it is not a good thing to throw an artist like Gao Fan to London.

　　 It's like throwing a mouse into an oil pot. You won't get out of it if you don't drink a round belly.

　　 "Little brother, do you have to remember what you are doing?" Lawrence said.

　　 "Ms. J·K's commission, of course I remember, I am painting." Gao Fan said, a canvas has been unfolded in front of him.

　　 "Really? What theme have you prepared?" Lawrence immediately became excited.

　　 "A cat." Gao Fan said.
