一週過去，又是JUBI的谷歌點名環節，這是要給長壽節目的節奏了～這週的題目是《興趣》。如果去我的首頁看看，你會發現在七至八成的帖子都是插畫類的。理所當然 繪畫 也就是我的一大興趣囉！
This is the entry of @jubi's Google Contest # 7 and the theme this week is "Hobby". If you look into my front page, you will find about 70-80% of my post now are about illustration. Thus, the most favourite one and I also bring it to Steemit is DRAWING !
(English version in the latter part)
關 於 繪 畫
從少開始我就很喜歡繪畫，幼稚園開始，美術科就是我最愛的科目了。畫花畫草畫人，還有填色作業都是我的興趣。不過我不太會天馬行空的畫，都是看甚麼畫甚麼。
只有一次討厭的經歷。小時候常有耳鼻喉的病，有一次請了假，回去時老師要我站到課室角落，要完成昨天的美術勞作，然後她就繼續上課。獨個兒在角落拿著圓形的發泡膠片，一片一片的拼魚鱗，心裡有一種莫名的厭惡感。
小學時，美術課還是我的最愛。猶記得在美術室有一個櫃，裡面放滿了所有不同年級的A級的作品。我常常往裡面看，渴望有一天裡面也放著自己的作品啊！
在六年級時，這一天終於到來。我的作品是一個黑暗歌德風格的黏土面具。
那時候，Beeltejuice 看得著迷。所以面具上也走佈滿黑白格，還有一條蟲在臉頰鑽出來，也在一灘血跡。
如果是今天的話，可能被帶到見醫生和社工，但那時候老師卻非常欣賞（重口味）
課飾時間，大多數是畫卡通人物，好像美少女戰士。跟裙子的皺摺也花了不少時間摶鬥，還有那跟足球小將一樣超乎常人的比例和曲線，好難掌握啊！比較簡單的是 Sanrio的人物，好像 Keroppi，我畫到有同學買（汗）。也有在國文課本看到《黃鶴樓》旁邊插圖有一隻黃鶴鳥，覺得有風味，就「背」起來了。結果，英語、數學、社會課本都有黃鶴鳥......
到中學，美術科變得很多姿多彩。老師會講不同的藝術風格，然後要我們應用到作業上。而且，都不局限於以筆繪畫，雕刻、陶瓷、版畫、速寫等等應有盡有。
生物科的眼睛心肺系統內臟甚麼的，考試時我都超極認真在畫（事實是只能解答畫圖的題目）
可惜，到高中時，想在聯考考美術的我，因為學校沒有開辦對應課程，要考的話得自費去找外面的畫室自學考試範圍。
美術課變得非常雞肋，主要科目趕進度時，總犧牲美術課，換上其他科目。所以當上考生那段日子畫最多的算是數學的曲線，還有地理科的天氣圖啊石頭啊之類了。
不過，沒有美術成績好像對大學選科沒多大影響。可能不是純美術吧？結果進了媒體相關的部門，主修了動畫。
說到動畫，沒在要求一定會畫。因為練畫不用大學也能練，這是基本要求。遊戲製作、CG軟體等等也可以專攻編程。不過有美術觸覺更全能就是了。
有說興趣不能當工作，也是的，因為在看電影時都會想劇情合理與否；這裡CG不對；那裡偷工減料了。消遣效果減半。
小員工到上畫都不會看到一整條最後版本。在銀幕上看到自己負責的片段也挺開心的，不過也有挺嘔心的時候，通常是連續對著一星期也沒有做到心目中那樣很滿意的時候。不過怎樣都比不上到現場才發現被刪剪掉那種無奈喇，哈！
然後迷上兩三年的水彩了。有一天整理舊物時，發現了一盒水彩，是小學生時期用剩的。擠出來，頭頭的一點已經水油分離了，後後面還能用。買了一個水彩色盤盒子，把它們擠出來用，剩下的讓它自然乾，當固彩。
之後，在網路上看了很多關於水彩的小知識，畫色卡喇，顏料分類等等。學會了一點點基本的科普類內容，可是沒有化學知識，再看下去就看得很迷糊了。
又看了很多視頻。技巧教學的，還有一大堆開箱文。開箱文看的不亦樂乎，可以直接配三碗白飯！櫻花、梵高、林布朗、史明克、MG、荷爾拜因、白夜，通通都看得口水直流。
就像很多運動、攝影等專門，最後作品也得看用家自身。「工欲善其事，必先利其器」個人來說絕對認同的。但每個人對利其器的定義也不同。自己只能負擔中價的，敗了現在帖子常用的那一盒；還有一盒平宜的白夜，是當初好玩買回來的；也有為了個別作品，統一調色而買的個別管裝（就是懶）。最初那一盒小學生水彩，就成了城市速寫的輕裝了。
紙方面選擇說多不多，說少不少。顏料也能看色卡和畫作來拿個標準，畫紙比較麻煩。在香港氣人的是沒有很多地方給你看看摸摸。只是靠別人描述和包裝資訊來買。不過用過幾種後，也開始找到自己的喜好了～
筆的話，畫風關係，還沒有需要很專門的筆。基本平頭、圓頭，7號跟00號數等，新手基本配備都夠了。大都是尼龍，有一支貂毛的。
好畫材買不完，摸到自己的專長就好，條件充裕就挑戰一下其他東西。大師級的工具當然想用，但現在先善用手上有的好物。況且，現在那盒梵高跟我挺搭的。
那我畫了甚麼吶？請看過去的帖子吧xDD
About Drawing
The last one is watercolour drawing. I started this hobby few years ago. One day, I found an old pack of watercolour tube at home. The oil and pigment at the top were separated, but the left were still fine. I squeezed it in to the palette box, let it dries as solid form.
I also searched many basic knowledge of watercolour, e.g. different kind of pigment and their sources. However, usually stopped at the chemistry part.
Also, technical and haul blog and youtube video. No missing of those famous brands, like Sakura, Van Gogh, Rembrandt, Schmincke, MG, Holbein, Whitenight...
Like many other fields, the quality of final product depends on the users. I believes that good quality of tool is necessary. However, the interpretation of "good" varies between people. To me, I can only afford middle price. A set of 12 colours Whitenight, 24 colours Van Gogh, some special colour for specific works (too lazy to mix every time). The primary school set becomes my urban sketch equipment.
Paper is a bit difficult to choose. As most of art supply shops here do not have sample. Only choose by people's recommendations and the information on package. Bought and tried some. Now, I have some favourite kind of papers.
I do not dig deep into brush. Only basic beginner set because my illustration does not required too high level brush now. Mosr of them are nylon and a sable.
Too many nice tools on the world. Now, I tend to stick with what I have, keep practising. May be in the further stage, I will try out other professional tools. By the way, the Van Gogh matches me quite well:P
Of course, welcomed to see my illustration through links under backnumber^^
It is my biggest hobby from my childhood. From kindergarten, art is my all time favourite lesson. I am not so creative, mostly drew what I saw.
Only one time, I felt weird and upset. When I was small my ear and nose always had problems. I went back to school and the teacher asked me to finish a fish collage, which was supposed to be finished yesterday, in the corner. I did know how to tell the reason, but I did not enjoy it.
When I was in primary school, I still like my art lesson very much. There is a cupboard like area, storing every A grade works of students from different years. I always looked into it and dreamed if someday there is my work inside.
And finally, in the sixth year, one of my work was in! It was a clay mask. At that time, I was attracted by Gothic style and dark theme. Mainly because of Beetlejuice. I can still remember some parts. A worn is coming out from the face, some checks, and blood. Mainly black and white with bloody red.
Today, may be a student made this mask will be send to see social worker or doctor? But my teacher put it into the "trophy area".
After school, usually drew anime character, e.g. Sailormoon. The folding of mini skirt spent me a lot of time. Also, like Captain Tsubasa, the unreasonable length of leg was so difficult to handle! Some simple characters like Sanrio's Keroppi, I drew it very well. In the Chinese Language textbook, next to a poem, there is a yellow crane. I like it very much and all subjects' books were filled with crane at that time...
In the secondary school time, teachers introduced different kind and schools of art styles. Then, let us try to apply in painting. Also, different kind of medias were also included. Like sculpture, pottery, rubber cut print, sketching, etc.
also enjoyed drawing the eyes, respiratory system, lol.
However, by starting the life of certificate examination candidate, art classes were always replaced by other major subjects. The most frequently drew are math's curves and weather symbols mark and rocks.
The missing of art in cert exam did not affect I entering university. I studied movie and animation.
Drawing seems the basic requirement, every one will practice in their own way. And some people does not draw, but they mainly spend their time in game and CG software programming. Training is basic and more for exploring is the principle.
Some people say hobby become boring if it becomes job. True. Always thinking the script, the production side, the CG, etc. Cannot enjoy and entertaining sometimes.

As a small potato, usually only see the full final final final version of movie in theater. Actually, it is happy to see the name in the ending credit and some scenes made by myself. Sometimes feel weird if the scene consumed one week and still not perfect. But, nothing worst than after seeing the whole film and find the scene was cut, lol.
