[Shelley color block top 10] 10. The stars are turning and a thousand sails are dancing: (Gatchaman)

by percyshelley, 2011/10/23

Today I would like to recommend the last color block work, "Van Gogh". Van Gogh's translation in mainland China is Van Gogh.

Speaking of Western oil painting masters, Van Gogh is definitely the first person that comes to mind, and his masterpiece "Starry Night" is definitely familiar to everyone. It is very interesting to calculate that there are only a handful of works in the dark silk world that have reproduced world-famous paintings, but as far as I know, at least three people have reproduced and painted Van Gogh's "Starry Night". By the way, apart from that, starmoonh also painted his "Wheatfield with Crows Flying", but the painting was more of a stream of consciousness. . . //esc Of the three reproductions of "Starry Night", it goes without saying that I admire Gatchaman's color block the most, although Gatchaman does not fully represent the entire picture. Hey, it's a pity that I don't have enough strength, otherwise I wish I could fill this hole.

Let’s take a look at the first tribute work, "Starry Night" by DixReves. Please enjoy it.

Starry Night(DixReves@rygh)

I can't help but complain, although the original author said I love Van Gogh, he was not very successful in expressing Van Gogh's original works. There is no way, Pineapple/DixReves is a painter known for his soft lines, but in Van Gogh's works, the stronger the lines and color blocks, the more expressive they are. Don’t ask me why, that’s not the point. The point is: I want to use this painting to launch zycw@BYHH’s analysis! Alas, my lady sister has already said everything I want to say! So I don’t need to comment //esc

I never thought anyone would draw this picture

Because it feels like both the lines and the color blocks are a piece of Van Gogh's work that is difficult to express.

If you want to understand this work, you must start with the original picture. For this purpose, I specially found Van Gogh’s

This famous painting Starry Night (I have uploaded the picture so that everyone can understand the original picture)

There are two line styles in this famous painting, one is the long curved line, the other is the broken short line.

The two are used interactively, and the strange moon, stars and magical whirlpools constitute the entire painting.

This gives people a dazzling spectacle where every tree, every star, and every mountain is moving.

The main expression is that the burning vitality of passion makes people moved and trembled everywhere.

Let’s briefly talk about the original picture, and let’s talk about the picture of pineapple. The whole picture still has a bit of the artistic conception of the original picture.

However, if you compare it with the original picture, you will find the following explanation that does not cause back pain (so even if you have seen it)

1. In the original picture, the vortex of the nebula's journey is like a giant dragon that is constantly squirming. This main line is in ASC

Not clearly shown in the picture

2. Regarding the color matching of the tree, the picture of the pineapple is dark green, and the original picture is dark green and brown. I think dark green + dark red can express it better.

Revealing this tree that looks like a flame

3. The content of the original picture is actually very rich. ASC mainly only painted the sky part, while the silent villages,

Details such as the throbbing distant mountains and the church steeple stretching into the sky were not painted.

4. This is not a comparison, but I specifically found different versions of Starry Night to listen to when writing this article.

It's really nice to listen to, and it's suitable for listening late at night (maybe it's early morning now), but I still like it.

Huan Qiyu’s version, I recommend everyone to listen to it and look at the pictures, you’ll get a good feel for it

The lady sister is indeed a senior in the color block world! The analysis was so insightful that I took the opportunity to express my admiration! (Audience: Isn’t this a line drawing...)

Well, let me sort out my emotions. As zycw said, the most amazing thing about Van Gogh's paintings is his extremely flamboyant vitality and enthusiasm. This enthusiasm comes from the continuous whirlpools and flowing colors in the pictures. Only Van Gogh's paintings are amazing. Only a madman like Gao could draw such a subjective painting! Ah, I'm off topic. The topic here is, how to use dark silk to express this "passionate burning vitality"?

So, I will introduce the second work, "Shang Wenjie Edition Activity Board-Starry Sky" by afra2005

Shang Wenjie Edition Activity Board - Starry Sky (afra2005)

Remember just now I said that you need to use the "hardest lines" to draw "Starry Night"? In fact, this work is reminiscent of wumi's lines, with extensive use of complex symbols, creating an archaic effect. afra2005 also likes to use a lot of special symbols. In this work, it has a miraculous effect: although it is a bit messy when you look closely, the overall effect is very vivid and full, because the special characters support the entire picture, giving people Visual impact. The same principle applies to color blocks: using large blocks of color and thick lines to depict the entire picture can resemble Van Gogh's original work and express its vitality.

Drawing color block diagrams with thick lines is also a secret skill that is rarely known in the world. There are pictures of this style, including Gatchaman's "Van Gogh" and "Super Mario Bros. 2", missher's "Punchy & Kangji", sylow's "Popkart Advance Edition", soulfox's "Sea of Tears", etc. The effect of this kind of drawing is just like a child's crayon drawing, very clumsy and interesting. Please enjoy missher's "Pengji & Kangji":

Ponchi & Conchi

In view of the fact that this technique can create an antique and rough effect, what will be the result if we add a little more fluidity and a little more vivid color matching? Thus, Gatchaman's "Van Gogh" was released. His work combines Van Gogh's "Self-Portrait" and "Starry Night". The "Starry Night" part only shows a quarter of the upper right corner of the original work, so it is incomplete. Of course, according to this painting method, it should be impossible to fully express the original work. . . At least the village below "Starry Night" is incomplete. Attached is the original image of "Self-Portrait":

Gatchaman’s Van Gogh:

When you compare the original image, you may say: The original image does not have so many thick black lines! Yes, the beauty of this work is that it does not blindly reproduce the form of the original picture, but creatively depicts it with a thick black frame.

Successfully created the gravity and flamboyant vitality of Van Gogh's oil paintings. As you can see, the black color blocks in this work are integrated and integrated. This is the second beauty of the thick black frame: it reproduces the ubiquity and flow of the line vortex in "Starry Night".

In fact, there is another such successful color block work. Although it is not depicted with a thick black frame, the use of large blocks of color also creates the thickness and flow of the color blocks. Please press space to enjoy "Bathing" by Windance:

I have always had the idea of completing a complete "Starry Night" color block diagram based on this idea. Finally, we have the following work, please enjoy:

Starry Night

That’s it for my color block chart recommendations. Readers, don’t run away, the line drawing recommendations below will be more exciting. btw I suddenly remembered that I haven’t heard Qi Yu’s “Starry Starry Night” yet
