recently
China Post Tiger Year Zodiac stamps began to be issued to the outside world,
But many netizens complained
The tiger on the stamp is "slightly sad",
Brow locked,
Looks sick,
There is no might at all of the might of the mountain tiger.
Netizens complained about the tiger in the first picture
Looks a little sad, full of sadness;
The second picture,
Mother Tiger with two cubs,
Also unhappy.
The big tiger has no tiger power, and the little tiger is not agile.
Some netizens even doubt the level of the painter
Public information shows that Feng Dazhong liked to draw tigers since he was a teenager, at that time, due to the lack of publications, he often took a bus to the zoo for observation, during which he also had several experiences of escaping from danger, a national first-class painter, an expert enjoying special allowances from the State Council, and the president of the Liaoning Provincial Old Artists Association.
In an interview with the media, Feng Dazhong said:
"Animals also have joys and sorrows, so the tiger must crack this code, break through its animal attributes to paint, anthropomorphize it, and strive to convey a spiritual emotion."
Feng Dazhong said,
The tiger diagram that I usually create
Adopt an anthropomorphic artistic language,
Focus on portraying the spirit of the tiger,
This coincides with the cultural connotation of the zodiac tiger,
It is also the creation of Chinese painting in normal times
What it has in common with this set of stamp designs.
China Philatelic Co., Ltd. as the issuer introduced on the official website that the special stamp "Year of Nongyin" issued on January 5 is the seventh set in the fourth round of Chinese zodiac stamps, and the image of the tiger starts from the "real", gets the nature of the tiger, and carefully interprets the beauty of the tiger. The stamps continue the design concept of the fourth round of zodiac stamps, interpreting the concepts of "country" and "home".
To this end, the reporter consulted a number of painters in the industry.
Some people said that the tiger on the stamp screen lacked aura,
The momentum is a little weak, and the king's demeanor is not reflected.
Mr. Fang, a painter from a provincial art association, believes that the tiger in the stamp does not reflect the characteristics of the tiger: the first tiger, the structure proportion is not quite right, the legs are painted a little short, the body feels long, and the tail is relatively thick. "This tiger is painted as embarrassed as the cat at home, and its guts look smaller, not like the proud king of the mountains."
"The second picture is of a tiger with two cubs, and the tigress is curled up there, looking pitiful, with tears in her eyes as if she were waiting for someone to give something." Mr. Fang said that the painting also does not reflect the nature of the tiger, its bones are also loose, and the markings are not so regular.
However, there are also painters who support the author. Lu Jun, a painter of gongbi, is a member of the Sichuan Provincial Art Association, and he told reporters that the author, Mr. Feng Dazhong, has more than 20 years of experience in painting tigers, and has been exploring the skills of drawing tigers, and most of the tigers he paints are gentle and generous, fierce with serenity, courage and gentleness, and tigers also have rich feelings such as happiness, sadness, and miss.
"First Snow" is a work won by Feng Dazhong in the International Youth Art Exhibition.
"He prefers to show something other than the fierceness of the tiger, and I think this is the original intention of his design of this set of stamps."
Lü Jun believes that from the perspective of technique, Mr. Feng Dazhong deliberately weakened the color difference of the picture, "The picture emphasizes the sense of volume of the object through the cold and warm of the color and the strength and weakness of the ink color, which can be said to be an attempt by the painter to coordinate and unify the feeling and skill." ”
Some netizens feel:
Very good, humane tiger!
But many people also think
The tiger lacks spirit,
Like you just woke up and didn't wash yourself
What do you think of these two tiger stamps?
