[Ahhh, please give Mu Jin more screen time! Don't worry about us, we can all be on screen!]
Why won't you let us see the painting? We really want to see it!
I saw President Ye! What are President Ye and Maomao whispering to each other? I'm so envious!
After a long while, Mu Jin and Song Sifan put down their brushes almost simultaneously.
The cat asked, "Are you finished drawing?"
They both nodded.
The cat went and put their two paintings together.
Everyone eagerly came up to see what was going on.
"My God! I can't believe it! If the ink hadn't been wet, I would have thought this was some kind of masterpiece!"
"This is amazing! I spent so much time at the exhibition, and the best paintings are here!"
"This trip was worthwhile. The charm of ink painting is so profound that I was completely captivated."
Song Sifan's paintings depict a lonely river under a cold moon, with distant mountains and boundless waters. The cold moon evokes both scenery and emotion, unconsciously stirring a sense of desolation in the viewer.
Mu Jin's paintings... are completely different from Song Sifan's paintings!
Looking at the two paintings together evokes completely different feelings!
There is no moon in Mu Jin's paintings at all! The scene is also very clean, with only three or four stones piled together and some scattered pebbles, which conveys the meaning of a small river.
A chubby frog stood on a rock, its big eyes bulging as it looked towards the riverbank.
A woman stood on the riverbank, her back view graceful and her figure slender. Her head was slightly lowered, her black hair was loose, and she had a leisurely demeanor. Most wonderfully, her graceful figure was reflected on the water.
In the center of the riverbank, the crescent moon, its reflection blurred by the ripples of the water, is faintly visible.
Although the actual moon is not visible in the painting, its shadow can be seen throughout the entire work.
Whether it's the frogs enjoying the cool of the moonlit night or the woman with her reflection in the water under the moon, both elements make this painting incredibly moving, leaving viewers with endless room for imagination.
What is the woman in the painting doing?
Why is she facing away from the camera, and what does she really look like?
After seeing the two artists' paintings, everyone was speechless with awe. It seemed... truly invincible!
"As expected of the Jade God, the painting is as ethereal and grand as ever."
"Although both of their techniques are impeccable, since it is a given topic, I think this figure painting has more artistic conception. The charm of ink painting lies in the blank space. In Mr. Mu Jin's painting, it seems that there are thousands of words, but they are all left for the viewer to appreciate with their heart. It is brilliant."
“You’re right. However, Chairman Song’s paintings have everything: mountains, rivers, and moonlight. This kind of painting expresses his feelings about nature more. But Mr. Mu Jin’s paintings express his feelings about the wind and moon more, which is more touching. These are two different styles of expression, and it’s hard to say which one is better.”
The people present were all painters, and they were still arguing endlessly, let alone the netizens watching the live stream.
I'm dead! I love all the girls in the paintings!
[Hey, you foreign artist! Are you serious about this heart-stirring stuff? You're a guy!]
[You all love the girl in the picture, so I'll love the frog! Don't you think it's adorable and incredibly cute?]
[Haha, upstairs sister! I noticed it too! And that frog is looking at the girl! The girl must be beautiful from the front too, so the title of this picture should be... "The Toad Wants to Eat Swan Meat"? LOL!]
[Haha, that's ridiculous! Mom's dreaming of eating swan meat!]
Kang Jiao couldn't wait to go up and take a look. When she saw it, she almost gritted her teeth. She knew that Song Sifan was a master of painting, but why was Mu Jin's painting so good too!
She had known Mu Jin for so many years and never knew his traditional Chinese paintings were so outstanding!
And... he actually has those kinds of romantic thoughts? Is there really a woman in this world who can move his heart? Otherwise, how could he draw such vivid figures!
Kang Jiao looked at Mu Jin, a person who never even glanced at her!
At that moment, Maomao said something to Mu Jin, and after Mu Jin glanced at her, a slight smile appeared on her lips.
That smile was boundless, a smile that captured the essence of romance.
Kang Jiao's heart was shattered into pieces. She never knew that Mu Jin could smile!
"Ah Jin, who did you draw?" Cat didn't seem to care how wonderful the painting was; she was more interested in the person in the painting.
Ah Jin puts his heart into his paintings, but who does he put his heart into? That's what people are really curious about.
“You.” Mu Jin looked at her.
"Huh?" Cat was a little doubtful. "This isn't me! I don't have hair this long, and I don't wallow in self-pity. Ah Jin, are you lying to me?"
Mu Jin curled her lips and smiled.
"In my imagination, this is you. You need to break free from the constraints of the painting. The emotions expressed in the painting are the real ones."
The cat stared at the painting, wanting to break free from its constraints, but... she didn't succeed; she couldn't feel the emotions expressed in the painting.
She was a little discouraged, so she said, "Ah Jin, what kind of feelings are these? Just tell me directly."
Mu Jin smiled again, but said nothing.
Ye Mingshi was right; this cat's artistic talent was simply not suited for calligraphy and painting.
"Why didn't you tell me?" Cat was a little anxious. Did A-Jin use the painting to confess his feelings to her, but she didn't get it?
At this moment, Kang Jiao suddenly stood up. She was unwilling to be ignored like this, so she smiled generously and said, "Since it is an exchange and a competition, there must be a winner. I think President Song's painting is better. Mr. Mu Jin's painting is also very good, but... it is a bit stingy."
Kang Jiao was extremely jealous. She just didn't want to see Mu Jin and the cat interacting so intimately. She was determined to stand on Song Sifan's side!
