Why Rose?【為何選擇玫瑰?】

Rose is not as sallow as you might think. While it represents romantic love, it also symbolizes passion, devotion, honor, resurrection and victory. In Greek legends, rose is the symbol of wisdom and beauty (however, it also symbolizes arrogance). Moreover, roses frequently appear as literary metaphors. For instance,

  • "Truths and ROSES have thorns about them." -Henry David Thoreau, American author, and
  • "Some people are always grumbling about roses having thorns; I am thankful that thorns have ROSES." -Alphonse Karr, French critic

Rose has given me positive energy, as well as inspired me not to give up whenever I am about to. True, they are thorny. Yet, they are glamourous.

其實,玫瑰沒有大家想像中那麼膚淺。它固然是愛情的代名詞,但它還象徵著熱情忠誠榮耀重生勝利。在希臘傳說中,玫瑰代表著智慧美貌 (然而,同時代表了自傲)。除此之外,玫瑰還常常以隱喻的形式出現在文學作品中。比如說:

  • 真相與玫瑰一樣,佈滿了刺。 - Henry David Thoreau, 美國作家,和
  • 有人不停埋怨玫瑰有刺;但我感激刺擁有玫瑰。- Alphonse Karr, 法國評論家

玫瑰給予我光明,在我每當想放棄之時賦予了我力量。沒錯,它們有刺;但,它們綻放得驚艷。

Material Used: Colour Pencils【材料:彩色鉛筆】

I chose to use (water)colour pencils for they're my favourite ;p Personally, STAEDTLER's green colours look perfect. Except the below two pencils, I used pencils from FABER-CASTELL :)

我選擇(水溶)彩色鉛筆,因為它們是我最喜歡的繪畫工具 ;p 個人來說,STAEDTLER牌的綠色比較漂亮。除了以下的兩支綠色彩鉛,我選擇的都是FABER-CASTELL牌的 :)

Step 1: Create the outline of the rose and its leaves【第一步:勾勒出花和葉的輪廓】

Step 2: Add layers to create gradient colors【第二步:一層一層加上去,形成漸變】

Although the first layer is light yellow, DON't fill in all the spaces because it'll make the flower appear "stolid".

雖然第一層是淺黃色,但不要填滿畫面,因為這樣會讓花顯得「死板」。

The SECOND layer!! Could you tell the difference? ;p

層!你看出不同了嗎?;p

The FIFTH layer!

層!

The X layer!!

第X層!!

20883644_10207735555825127_685983784_o.jpg

The LAST layer!! I used DARK PURPLE instead of black to finish the outline because it'll look more natural.

最後一層!!我選擇用深紫而非黑色完成最後的輪廓勾勒,讓它顯得更自然。

20931091_10207735556025132_136826692_o.jpg

The leaves are NO LESS important than the flower itself. I used yellow to construct the FIRST layer, too.

葉子和花一樣重要。我也是用了黃色來完成第一層。

Then, add various green colours to create 3-dimensionality.

然後,加上各種綠色去營造3D的效果。

20883652_10207735556065133_1018190995_o.jpg

I chose to add WARM colours like orange, brown and red as they could make the leaves more lively.

我選擇加上橙、棕和紅之類的暖色,讓葉子看起來更生動。

Have you noticed that I've used DARK BLUE instead of green at the bottom?

你留意到底色用的是深藍而非深綠嗎?

20930452_10207735556225137_1915253990_o.jpg

Finished!

大功告成!!

Challenge 1: Colour【挑戰一:顏色】

Below are the colours I used in my drawing. There are 12 LAYORS for the rose and I used 15 COLOURS to finish the leaves!!! You have to be EXTREMELY careful and patient to deal with them. Definitely challenging!!!

下面是我這幅畫用到的顏色。畫玫瑰用了12層,畫葉子用了15種顏色!!要把它畫好,你需要極度小心和有耐心。名副其實的挑戰!!

Challenge 2: Scale【挑戰二:比例】

You might have noticed that the leaves were BIGGER before I coloured them ;p It's quite challenging to decide the scale of the leaves since they're definitely important, but they shouldn't be more eye-catching than the rose.

大家可能都留意到在我上色之前,葉子是十分的 ;p 決定葉子的比例是比較困難的事,因為它們雖然重要,但不能喧賓奪主。

Tired of my drawing? Let's learn something new!!

看得無聊嗎?讓我們一起學些新知識吧!

Interesting Fact: We've all heard of the phrase "UNDER THE ROSE". This expression comes from the practice of Romans HANGING ROSES above meeting tables.It means that anything said at this table, beneath the hanging roses, was FORBIDDEN to be repeated elsewhere. That's why roses also represent secrets. 趣味小知識:英文有一個詞組"under the rose". 什麼?在玫瑰下?其實,這是「秘密」的意思。羅馬人有時會在開會時把玫瑰吊在會議桌上。意思為:在這張桌子旁、這朵玫瑰下說過的話,絕不可在他處說出。這就是玫瑰代表「秘密」的典故。

I've NEVER learnt drawing, but I enjoying drawing veryyyy much. It takes time, and you have to do a lot of practice. There's still much room for improvement for my drawing skills. However, I believe that if you're willing to put effort on whatever you want to achieve, you're gonna succeed:) Thank you for reading and I wish everyone a ROSY future!!!!!

從來沒有學過畫畫,但我熱愛繪畫。它是一門需時的愛好:一幅作品不僅會消磨你許多個下午的時光,它的成功與否,還取決於你之前有否認真地練習。雖然我的繪畫技術還有很大的改善空間,但我相信,「只要有恆心,鐵杵磨成針。」謝謝大家的閱讀。願我們都有rosy(美好)的未來!!
