Chapter 288 Qinglan Art Exhibition
Principal Sun saw that Shi Tingyu had no objection, so he said, "So, Mr. Shi, you usually have a lot of paintings. Can you support me with more? There are only twelve days until September 25th. It is not easy to collect all the paintings for the exhibition."
Shi Tingyu carefully counted the inventory on hand and said, "I can provide five paintings."
Principal Sun looked at him with a look of "Why are you so stingy?" "I saw them all when Shen Shen was 100 years old. You have at least a dozen paintings. Why don't you just exhibit them directly instead of letting them gather dust at home? If visitors like the paintings, I can sell them to them. "
Shi Tingyu said helplessly: "I will go back and select carefully. It's not that I don't want to exhibit, but there are many paintings I painted for my family, and some are practice works in my daily life. I don't have many paintings that meet the exhibition requirements."
Principal Sun didn't think so. "I am confident in your skills. I have seen many of your paintings. Even if they are practice works, they are still up to standard."
He has been running around to invite paintings these days, and he is really tired.
Fortunately, he is the principal of Jinyi and has connections in this area, otherwise this exhibition will be a failure.
Under Principal Sun's repeated instructions, Shi Tingyu went home after school and began to sort out his inventory.
First, he eliminated the paintings of his family, then eliminated the paintings that were not suitable for exhibition, and finally he managed to find eight paintings.
Lu Weiguo knew that his wife's paintings were going to be exhibited in Jinling, and he was more excited than Shi Tingyu, the person involved.
"Wife, by the time of this exhibition, our rehearsal should be over, and I will go to support you then."
Shi Tingyu smiled and said, "Okay, I'll save you a ticket."
Lu Weiguo asked, "How many tickets do you have? I'll give some to Lao Feng and the others then." As
soon as he finished speaking, he denied what he had just said, "No, they have to buy their own tickets, otherwise how can it be considered support."
Shi Tingyu laughed, "I'll save you a few more tickets when there are free tickets."
She didn't think Feng Wei was someone who would visit an exhibition.
Shi Tingyu told the principal about the eight paintings she had collected, and the principal stopped insisting when he saw that there were really no extra tickets.
Shi Tingyu conducted a week-long selection in the class.
"In the end, I will select the two best works from the works you submitted and exhibit them in the art museum."
Two places for one class is already a lot.
Because not only their oil painting class, but also Chinese painting classes have them.
The location for the students' works to be exhibited is not as good as those of Shi Tingyu and other famous people, but for the students it is definitely an opportunity they can't wait for.
The students' attention was attracted by the exhibition.
For students like them in the oil painting class, what they want most is just to have their paintings exhibited one day.
Now that this ultimate goal is within reach, how can they not work hard for it.
The previous foreign language test made people lose their morale in an instant.
In the past few days, Shi Tingyu could see students in the studio before and after class.
If she sees some inspiring works, she will also give some guidance.
Shi Tingyu was instructing students on this day, and Principal Sun came to visit.
Shi Tingyu asked and found out that someone from the Public Security Bureau had just called.
Shi Tingyu saw that the students didn't need anything for the time being, so she followed the principal to answer the phone.
The person who called was Niu Ganshi, because he was more familiar with Shi Tingyu, so he made the call.
The Public Security Bureau naturally called about the new major of the Public Security University after the summer vacation next year.
Niu Ganshi said: "The leader feels that this period of time cannot be wasted, so I thought of sending three people to learn from you first. When the new major starts, they can also help you as teaching assistants or something."
It would be too difficult to rely on Shi Tingyu alone next year.
If she has any urgent matters, there will be no substitute teacher.
Since there is still nearly a year left, Shi Tingyu can train a few people first. Shi
Tingyu naturally agrees to reduce her burden.
But she has a request on the time.
"The people you send over should come after the National Day."
Niu Ganshi didn't ask why, thinking that it was already the middle of September, and it didn't matter if it was two or three weeks late, as long as Teacher Shi agreed.
So the two sides agreed that everything could be discussed and the request was not excessive.
The reason why Shi Tingyu arranged for people to come after the National Day was because Lu Weiguo was not at home.
She asked Niu Ganshi, and learned that the visitors were three graduates of the Public Security University this year, all young men. She was upright and had nothing to fear, but she could not stand the rumors, so she decided to wait until Weiguo came back.
In this way, the three of them would not cause gossip.
After hanging up the phone, Shi Tingyu went back to class.
Before leaving, Principal Sun said, "Please bring your paintings here in the next few days so that I can send them to the art museum for decoration as soon as possible."
So the next day, Shi Tingyu brought eight paintings to the school and handed them to the principal.
Principal Sun looked at them one by one. When he was at Lu's house, he had taken a general look. Some of the paintings were not large and might have been blocked behind other paintings, so he had not seen them.
But it doesn't matter, it's the same now.
Shi Tingyu's paintings were all carefully selected by herself and she felt that they were suitable for the exhibition.
One of the paintings was a painting of a hand.
A man's hand, or a warrior's hand.
There were countless wounds from various cords, new and old.
Principal Sun was shocked.
Looking at the skin condition of the hand, it should be the hand of a young man, but it was precisely because of this that it was shocking.
Shi Tingyu originally wanted to paint Lu Weiguo's hand, but later found that the wounds on his hands had turned into cords, and the wounds were not very obvious because they healed.
So she found a young warrior as a reference.
The contrast at this time was the most obvious.
The hands of the little warrior are also the most intuitive.
In addition to this "Hands", there are also "Shepherd" and "Newspaper" that Principal Sun has never seen.
Similar to the picture above, this is Teacher Lu Qi's "2022 Newspaper Fish".
Shepherds are the subject of characters that Shi Tingyu is used to painting, and the quality is beyond reproach.
The newspaper is Shi Tingyu's attempt to change her style. Her painting is a ball of crumpled newspapers, but under Shi Tingyu's pen, it looks like a photo, and the realism is almost indistinguishable from the real.
The rest, such as "Rose in the Rain", "Sharp Sword", etc., are all Shi Tingyu's daily realistic works.
Shi Tingyu asked: "What do you think, Principal? Are there any that don't meet the requirements? I'll take them back."
It's not that Shi Tingyu is self-deprecating, but some exhibitions have themes, or some paintings don't fit the current environment, and it's better to eliminate them.
Although Shi Tingyu has been here for a few years, he is not as thoughtful as Principal Sun, who was born and raised here.
Principal Sun said: "These are all very good, or too good."
He felt that the specifications of this exhibition were not worthy of Shi Tingyu's paintings.
After all, it was a temporary decision, there was not much time to prepare, and there were few masters who could be invited. These paintings of Shi Tingyu are definitely the top quality of the exhibition.
