我的中國畫小品

Paintings by Li Chunhua

李春華

我們畫國畫,對題裁的選擇是十分寬泛的,
既可畫名山大川,又可以畫身邊的熟悉之物:
比如我們每天都有機會接觸的瓜菓蔬菜,
都可以用中國畫的筆墨把它描繪得栩栩如生......

Our selection of Chinese paintings is vast. We paint famous mountain
and hill sceneries, as well as familiar everyday things around us.
Every day we have the chance to come across melons, fruits and
vegetables, and we use ink and brush to make them come alive…...

紙本,彩墨,
小品練習.

Chinese paper and colored ink

Sketch practice.

《樱桃熟了》：樱桃是静物, 小鸡是动物, 动静相应,颇为可观.

“Ripened cherries”

Cherries are still life and little chicks are live animals. Together,
they are static and dynamic--a balance that is quite impressive.

《甜不甜啊？》——一粒樱桃掉在地面上, 引起了小鸡的好奇心......

“Is it sweet?”

A cherry fell to the ground. It caused the chick to become curious…...

这根罗卜甜不甜?
甜!

Is this radish sweet?

Yes!

《哪颗是最红的？》____有许多樱桃在一个篮子里, 小鸡思考:哪一颗是最红的？
“Which one is the reddest?”

There are a lot of cherries in the basket. The chick thought, “Which
one is the reddest?”

正是藉秋风

The exact moment an Autumn breeze passes.

仿白石老人笔意

Replicating old artist Qi Baishi’s drawing techniques.

仙桃熟了!

The peaches have ripened!

秋高气爽
The Autumn air is crisp and refreshing.

香茗一杯写秋意.
A cup of tea to write a poem about Autumn.

这些蔬菜依然做主角, 而我, 也依然充当一位导演；
要想她们演出成功，首先是我必须有当导演的"才能"......

The vegetables are still the main characters. But I am the director
and must have the ability to direct in order to make the performance a
success.

《是什么味道啊？》____这是菊花和小鸡的组合。几片菊花的花瓣掉在地面上,
小鸡好奇地以为是好吃的食物, 于是尝试起来了......
“What does it taste like?”

The chrysanthemum and the chick are together. The chrysanthemum petals
fall to the ground. The chick was curious, thinking it would be
delicious, so it tried to taste it.

一壶绿茶写春秋
A pot of green tea to write about Spring and Autumn.

姹紫嫣黄

Beautiful purples and brilliant yellows.

(Based on Chinese idiom “Beautiful purples and brilliant reds”)he rhythm of Autumn.

红罗卜与蘑菇依然做主角, 而我, 只是一位导演；
要想她们有出色的演出，就要互相衬托, 互相呼应......

Carrots and mushrooms are still the main characters, and I am the
director. For the best performance, you have to balance each other and
have synergy.

硕果累累.

The tree is filled with fruit.

秋韵

The rhythm of Autumn.

红罗卜、蘑菇, 都是可供入画之物；红罗卜与蘑菇, 各具特色，各备神态......

Carrots and mushrooms—all of these things are picturesque objects by
themselves. Carrots and mushrooms, each have their own distinctive
features and details…

红罗卜、蘑菇, 画出来很容易；要想画得好，不容易......

Drawing carrots and mushrooms is very easy, but is not easy to draw well…...

这些蔬菜, 我们可能熟视无睹。其实对于一位画家来说, 这样做是要后悔的；
我认为：不在于你画什麽, 而在于你画得好不好。要想画得好, 谈何容易?
We may turn a blind eye on these vegetables, but it would be
regrettable for an artist, I feel. You can draw anything, but it is
more important that you draw well. Drawing well is not as easy as it seems.
