Re: Hubei farmer Xiong Qinghua's painter dream: painted in ridicule for more than 20 years
Xiong Qinghua in the painting of Yu Xihuan photography. Zhang Wenli, a surging journalist, "what does painting now look like? Childhood dream may be to paint as a means of making a living. When others advise me to copy, I feel disgusted. Drawing depends on what I like to paint, and how I can see what others want to see. He made an iconic grin.
Xiong Qinghua, who has been immersed in fantasy all day, has fantasized about many successful models. For example, one day, if you write a good piece of writing, you will fantasize as a writer. If you sing a nice song, you will fantasize as a singer.
fantasy brings joy to his life. And in all these illusions, he realized that the only thing that could be accomplished was painting.
he started painting at the age of 6. No one was enlightened and no one taught. He buried himself in the heroes of comic strips. At that time, he was the youngest in his class, short and dark, and very self abased. He drew attention to his paintings, and his neighbors praised him. The teacher also admired him, saying that he had talent and could become an artist.
this made him feel small achievement. In school, he sometimes deliberately pretended to be careless and spread the picture on the table so that his classmates could see it. But if he finds out which student is going to overtake him, he can't stand it.
painting is also a window for Xiong Qinghua to escape from the real world. "When I do something unsuccessful or suffer setbacks, I go to paint."
class classmate Lei talent is also like painting, he remember, art class is often occupied by cultural lessons, art teachers are also perfunctory, no one teaches or painting atmosphere, but Xiong Qinghua is fond of painting, if the art teacher arranges a theme, Xiong Qinghua always paints very well.
he had no systematic training, and he was reluctant to seek advice from others through his enthusiasm and talent. "If you just give me a teacher, I may not draw." He groped for calligraphy from the book, met with no understanding or confusion, and was not willing to consult anyone who could draw.
he analyzed his spleen and was deeply influenced by three brothers. His three brother is a farmer, but he likes to study history, read and write poems. He often tells Xiong Qinghua history stories and listen more. Xiong Qinghua confess that he has the ability to series various historical events and despise teaching in class.

finished the second grade, Xiong Qinghua's cultural class performance has been "miserable", he decided to drop out of school. In 1990s, it was common for children to drop out of school in villages. At the time of
2012's brother's wedding, Xiong Qinghua was only 15 years old, out of the way, and did not like to talk to people. In the second year, he came to him by bike after graduation, but he was ashamed to see his classmates. Xiong Qinghua, who is self abased by
, thinks painting is a career of "tall and tall", and he is eager to gain glory from it. Father Xiong Guangyuan, at the age of 40, had only two children. At the beginning, he did not ask his son to work to make money. He thought that painting was a "skill", and it was good.
Xiong Qinghua used to ride a bicycle for two hours to see the painting books in Xiantao City Library. There was a classmate who studied art and graduated, and the book was gone. Xiong Qinghua bought the book and asked his father to pay 200 yuan. After he got the book, he spent the whole day at home studying painting.
"he is introverted, you say, he does not tell you." In his father Xiong Guangyuan's view, Xiong Qinghua has been doing this thing until now, and this is also his character.
Xiong Guangyuan and his wife are farmers. They can not do anything about painting, but they do not force him to do farm work.
"drawing when you are young, people around you are more appreciative of you. A person has a special skill, others will always look at you differently. Later, when you grow up and do not work, others feel as if you are going to waste your life. " Xiong Qinghua has gradually felt the change of attitude of the people around him. At the time of
, Michael Jackson was just beginning to get popular. He bought a tape, used the radio to play Jackson's songs every day, while listening and drawing. "Neighbors are all noisy. They say you listen to something crying and quarrelling every day."
children in the village and his age have basically gone out to work. More and more cynicism, father Xiong Guangyuan could not help saying, "why do you have to do this, and your classmates who are reading the academy have not been successful."
classmate Lei Cai soldier, who also likes painting, took another road. He took part in the art training class in the first three years and went to the art major of the secondary normal school. After graduation, he was assigned to the town as a teacher. At that time, he had an art teacher in the town. He sent him to teach mathematics.
in the first few years of teaching, Lei Cai soldier also brought along a sketch book and painted something in his spare time. Later, with other interests and hobbies, basketball and table tennis began to fade away.
the disapproval reached the peak after Xiong Qinghua's marriage. In 1998, he was introduced to Fu Aijiao, a girl in another village. She was one year younger than him. After 10 months, two people got married.
"that's an old age. It may have to fulfill parents' expectations, or any young person's task." He summed up the origin of his marriage. As for love, he smiled shyly. "Ha ha ha... What do you say?
he calls his wife "the most intimate person". When painting is irritable, he may only be angry with "the most intimate person".
