"Fang Ning is not round" refers to the sketch form of building blocks to shape the body. In fact, many small squares can be combined into an object image, just like optimizing the image with fireworks. The enlarged images are all small squares.
Dirty is better than clean, which means that in order to reach the rich level of painting and show the internal structure of the depicted object, it is better to use more pens to look dirty than to draw a clean painting without content.
Extended data:
Mr. Xu Beihong is a master of modern art education in China. In the tide of the collision of western cultures in the early 20th century, as the first generation of artists who went to the West to study fine arts, he studied and visited Europe for 8 years. He not only deeply studied the history and modeling system of European fine arts, but also learned and mastered the skills of sketch and oil painting modeling with extremely diligent spirit.
During my study abroad, I showed outstanding talent and profound thinking. After returning from studying abroad, he devoted his life to art education and spared no effort to lay the theoretical system of art education in China.
He advocated that "sketch is the foundation of plastic arts" and put forward the sketch requirements of "Fang Ning can't be round, Fang Ning can't be clean and Ning Zhuo can't be clever", so as to guide students to improve their overall quality and seek truth and beauty in teaching. His artistic concept of "doing the smallest and reaching the widest" gives people profound enlightenment.
He cherishes talents and is good at discovering talents. He helped many talented students who met with difficulties and supported their success. He also invited and United a large number of famous artists to engage in art education regardless of social status and school views, which laid a very important talent foundation for art education in New China.
