After the opening of the Beijing Winter Olympics, Jiang Xuejie, an art teacher in our city, began to use clay clay sculptures to create array works such as "ice piers", "snow rongrong" and "zodiac signs for the Winter Olympics" to present gifts to the Winter Olympics and cheer for the athletes.
"Since about 2010, I started doing clay works. At that time, the children were small, purely to coax the children to play. Unexpectedly, the more I did it, the more I felt. Jiang Xuejie said that with the beijing winter olympics, she wanted to make a batch of related clay works to cheer for the Olympics.
On the afternoon of February 9, at Jiang Xuejie's home, the reporter witnessed the birth of the clay version of the "ice pier".
Grab a piece of white clay, tear it back and forth in your hand, tear the clay evenly, rub it in the palm of your hand, and a round and rolling body is ready. First pinch the head, then make a face, layered and finished, after some cutting, carving, pointing, rubbing, calming down, a cute "ice pier" was born from Jiang Xuejie's hands.
Relatively speaking, the "ice pier" is more delicate than the "snow melting", and the most difficult thing to pinch is the eye of the "ice pier", which needs to be done layer by layer, so that the eyes can come alive. Jiang Xuejie said that in order to restore the original appearance of the "ice pier", she observed it for a long time compared with the pattern. For example, the careful heart in the hands of the "ice pier" and the appearance of the legs "micro-inner eight" are all highly simulated.
On Jiang Xuejie's work desk, there is also a group of works of the "Zodiac Winter Olympics", which she created not long ago.
The little tiger crouched with his back hand, his eyes firm, pushed forward curling, two yellow chickens one left and one right, quickly wiping the ice in front; pink "Page" lay on the snowmobile, rushing to the end with a sad face; the little white dragon whiskers were scaled, stepping on the skateboard all the way...
"The zodiac represents everyone and expresses the emotion of the whole people participating in the Winter Olympics." Jiang Xuejie said that she also plans to knead another batch of clay sculptures of Winter Olympic athletes to pay tribute to them.
