hasn't hibernated. He jumped in alarm, frightened by the noise he heard in the early
summer. It was a shrill electronic sound from an old vinyl disc player. What a
confusing thing. Was it supposed to be a sharper, purer electric sound? Or does it
belong to the sound of a disc player? It’s like a gemstone-shaped plasticine. Which is
important about it? Which one is it?
No one really loves plasticine, even if it will change and adapt for anyone. It's a game
that people play when they need comfort, and they leave it to air dye when their hands
get sticky. No one is at fault, just as no one waits for the pill’s icing to melt.

From the main point of view, it has tension. I can figure out how to deal with the composition of the action of plucking hair to make it look like more story. Against the background of a warm winter, the sun and global warming slowly melted the ice; In order to adapt to this temperature change, the polar bear had to pull off its thick fur. The process is slow and painful. The sharp claws of the polar bear still retain the heroic appearance it used to shine in this land. I will try to use watercolor to depict natural background colors, such as light, ice, and water. I will focus on the polar bear’s hands and facial expressions to make the overall picture look gentle but cruel.]]> 2021-02-08 16:14:45 UTC https://padlet.com/lixiaola/rnedeqsvw33z6q9k/wish/1177776346 【Explosion】 lixiaola https://padlet.com/lixiaola/rnedeqsvw33z6q9k/wish/1177947703 Secondly, I think the effect is the explosion of the planet. The explosion of this picture is spectacular, and this kind of picture often uses slow motion to show its shock in movies. You can imagine this moment as a slow motion: in a void, a burning planet in the universe. It is more difficult for me to show a shocking feeling. It needs good color matching and details to make this picture look interesting. It also needs imagination, which is challenging. I think acrylic can play a very good effect.]]> 2021-02-08 16:41:07 UTC https://padlet.com/lixiaola/rnedeqsvw33z6q9k/wish/1177947703 【Waterfall】 lixiaola https://padlet.com/lixiaola/rnedeqsvw33z6q9k/wish/1178065661 The third option is waterfall. This is my initial idea, but it is too ordinary. I can imagine that it might become a landscape painting, or even worse. But I don't want to give up this idea. Water itself is an element that fits my idea, from waterfalls to streams. The disadvantage is that it may be boring. A proper angle and composition can make it look more storytelling. Maybe try mixing a little acrylic with watercolor to show it.]]> 2021-02-08 16:59:12 UTC https://padlet.com/lixiaola/rnedeqsvw33z6q9k/wish/1178065661 writing idea(continue) l10051820 https://padlet.com/lixiaola/rnedeqsvw33z6q9k/wish/1204262779 2021-02-15 16:52:50 UTC https://padlet.com/lixiaola/rnedeqsvw33z6q9k/wish/1204262779 zoom in: drawing idea(continue)1 l10051820 https://padlet.com/lixiaola/rnedeqsvw33z6q9k/wish/1204265007 2021-02-15 16:53:37 UTC https://padlet.com/lixiaola/rnedeqsvw33z6q9k/wish/1204265007 zoom in: drawing idea(continue)2 l10051820 https://padlet.com/lixiaola/rnedeqsvw33z6q9k/wish/1204269518 2021-02-15 16:55:04 UTC https://padlet.com/lixiaola/rnedeqsvw33z6q9k/wish/1204269518 zoom in: drawing idea(continue)3 l10051820 https://padlet.com/lixiaola/rnedeqsvw33z6q9k/wish/1204276540 2021-02-15 16:57:26 UTC https://padlet.com/lixiaola/rnedeqsvw33z6q9k/wish/1204276540 zoom in: drawing idea(continue)4 l10051820 https://padlet.com/lixiaola/rnedeqsvw33z6q9k/wish/1204278815 2021-02-15 16:58:16 UTC https://padlet.com/lixiaola/rnedeqsvw33z6q9k/wish/1204278815 zoom out l10051820 https://padlet.com/lixiaola/rnedeqsvw33z6q9k/wish/1204291094 2021-02-15 17:02:24 UTC https://padlet.com/lixiaola/rnedeqsvw33z6q9k/wish/1204291094 final 1 l10051820 https://padlet.com/lixiaola/rnedeqsvw33z6q9k/wish/1205244510 2021-02-16 01:40:09 UTC https://padlet.com/lixiaola/rnedeqsvw33z6q9k/wish/1205244510 final 2 l10051820 https://padlet.com/lixiaola/rnedeqsvw33z6q9k/wish/1205246637 2021-02-16 01:41:53 UTC https://padlet.com/lixiaola/rnedeqsvw33z6q9k/wish/1205246637 final 3 l10051820 https://padlet.com/lixiaola/rnedeqsvw33z6q9k/wish/1205247283 2021-02-16 01:42:26 UTC https://padlet.com/lixiaola/rnedeqsvw33z6q9k/wish/1205247283 final 1&3 with color l10051820 https://padlet.com/lixiaola/rnedeqsvw33z6q9k/wish/1224544240 2021-02-22 02:12:54 UTC https://padlet.com/lixiaola/rnedeqsvw33z6q9k/wish/1224544240 final 2 with color l10051820 https://padlet.com/lixiaola/rnedeqsvw33z6q9k/wish/1224547901 2021-02-22 02:15:27 UTC https://padlet.com/lixiaola/rnedeqsvw33z6q9k/wish/1224547901 Explanation l10051820 https://padlet.com/lixiaola/rnedeqsvw33z6q9k/wish/1224549369 For Final 1:
According to the notes, my understanding of a “gemstone shape plasticine” is moldable, so I think of growing teenagers. They are gemstone shades and have their own personality, but plasticine can be changed by external forces. Therefore, it can be understood as growth and change in the environment. "warm winter air" reads as gentle and warm. I define the image as a gentle boy, and set the white shirt as one of the elements. "pill's icing to melt" It's a long and bitter process, it can also be understood as the difficulty of growing up. I set the environment under the sun, and replaced the pill's icing with the scene of the sun slowly shining and burning the skin. For "shrill electron sound", it is a rather vague explanation, which can be understood as the inner world, but it is not clearly shown in the picture. This is the basic explanation of the 1st idea. ]]> 2021-02-22 02:16:38 UTC https://padlet.com/lixiaola/rnedeqsvw33z6q9k/wish/1224549369 Explanation l10051820 https://padlet.com/lixiaola/rnedeqsvw33z6q9k/wish/1224575698 For Final 2:
According to the explanation of idea1, the second idea was derived. Similarly, I set the image as a teenager, but it looks colder because I focused the pessimistic atmosphere in the text, but it is not a sad character, it fell more rebellion. Sunglasses are one of the elements, because it is very intuitive to represent coldness; The idea of it is comes from "shrill electron sound". The mouth is smiling. It can be explained that it is actually a friendly person. For more is because it make it looks cool, so I put it as one of the ideas.]]> 2021-02-22 02:36:15 UTC https://padlet.com/lixiaola/rnedeqsvw33z6q9k/wish/1224575698 l10051820 https://padlet.com/lixiaola/rnedeqsvw33z6q9k/wish/1224595569 For Final 3
