Re: Hubei farmer Xiong Qinghua's painter dream: painted in ridicule for more than 20 years
he is interested in everything that is visually conveyed. The biggest expense now is photography, buying all kinds of top cameras and lenses. During the Spring Festival last year, he bought an UAV to play aerial photography and wanted to look at his life from the sky.
Guo Yukuan asked Xiong Qinghua if he wanted to come to Beijing. Xiong Qinghua said he liked the country's environment. He was lost in the city, and he was lost in the street. Though he did not like the people in the village and did not like the topic they discussed, but for a long time, he would also like to see those villagers.
"this place is the root of my creation, and I don't feel like painting when I leave this place." He said slowly and lazily, "only when you live here can you calm down, so that you can think about how to draw and how to draw every day."
birds chirping in the woods, chattering, the women in the countryside chatting outside the castle. When Xiong Qinghua was immersed in the studio, he paid the children, the housework, or a group of villagers sitting on the small stool in front of the door. They chatted, and the topic was nothing but the children and the mahjong. Xiong Qinghua never participated, "I can't talk with them."
Fu AI Jiao no longer went out to work. People envied her and finally got over it. In the past, when I was working alone, sometimes I saw other couples or lovers on the road. But Xiong Qinghua didn't feel guilty about his wife. "Because I want to paint, if I feel guilty, I can't draw."
Fu Aijiao felt that her husband did not care enough for her. Valentine's day this year, she said, "Valentine's Day". Xiong Qinghua said that Valentine's Day is to buy things for lovers, not to buy things for wives.
the only thing Xiong Qinghua did for his wife was painting. In the bedroom on the two floor of the old house, there was a huge portrait of a wife wearing a wedding dress on the head wall of the bed, which was finished by Xiong Qinghua in 2004 and 2005 when his wife worked outside. "Because we didn't take wedding photos when she was married, she always wanted me to make up the pat. I never wanted to. I feel like I've been married for quite a few years. There's no need to waste money. " So he painted the portrait of his wife on the wall himself.
Xiong Qinghua's WeChat name is "bear fire" because he feels that he is short tempered. He also specially designed a portrait for himself, like a group of fire, and hung it in front of the house.
Xiong Qinghua's photographic paintings have been incorporated into his life and are affected all the time. If you draw a lot, you will feel very good. You will feel bad when you paint badly. If you do not paint, you will feel very disappointed.
sometimes painting is irritable. If you talk with him, you will be scolded. If his wife swore, he would be like a storm. When the wife was roared, she was secretly crying on the bed alone.
at this time, painting became Xiong Qinghua's escape from reality again. He never went to coax his wife. "I was upset by her, and I needed to paint to adjust until I was in a better mood."
for him, painting has always been higher than anything else. He often sighs that painting time is not enough. "Painting every day is gone."
his friend Zheng Gang, dressed neatly, said, uncontrollably, on the balustrade on the side of the pool, "this is his manor, keeps building, and there is no fence at the time of last year."
originally, Zheng Gang wanted to ask Xiong Qinghua to go to Wuhan to take photos, but Xiong Qinghua did not go. He likes to arrange things on his own and doesn't want the rhythm of painting to be disrupted.
the studio is full of paintings, just finished, unfinished, and the oil stains are dry. He reminds us not to get them. Later, he displayed nearly two pieces of work in the cupboard in the past 10 months.
he started writing in 2008 and created 5-10 paintings a year. After 2010, he began to ask himself to maintain the frequency of 4 paintings a month. His goal is to draw 2000 paintings in his life.
a few days ago, a more than 70 year old old man went to visit him. He introduced himself and said that painting life was not successful. "If I am not recognized, I may be like him." Xiong Qinghua often felt a sense of crisis. He thought that if he did not like his paintings someday, he would feel scared.
now he gets up at 7 every morning, eats at 8 o'clock, starts painting at about 9 o'clock, and draws a picture at 10 o'clock in the evening. He felt that he had a very big promotion space in painting, and wanted to create his own painting style. "The recognition is very high, let others see it, ah, this is Xiong Qinghua's painting."
