"Family Collection" continues to focus on the "I am an Inheritor of Intangible Cultural Heritage" weekend special. Yesterday, under the guidance of Tong Shengfu, the inheritor of Yujiang wood carving production skills, an intangible cultural heritage of Jiangxi Province, the reporter of our column group experienced his classic unique skill - carving a big rooster. It is said that the eyes are the windows of the soul, if you want animals to convey their spirits, this eye is the most difficult and the most classic, but as soon as Jiang Yue started carving the eyes, they were either flat or flat, and then they could still carve out the rooster with a knife?
Due to excessive carving, Jiang Yue carved the rooster's eyes into "small bean eyes", resulting in a somewhat strange overall look.
It is said that the size is big and it is easy to change it to the smaller, and this one is small, which is really difficult, but Teacher Tong said that if this matter is handed over to him, everything can be remedied. Start with high-tech - carve a drill, enlarge the rooster's eye socket a little first, and then go under the knife, and that's no problem.
Not to mention, after Mr. Tong's remedy, when he carved the eyes again, it was easier to find the feeling than before, and he really couldn't figure out the proportions of the rooster's eyes before, but now he really carved out the semicircular eyes under the knife.
The hand strength should be skillful, the depth of the knife should also be paid attention to, not too much, not too deep, a little bit of the rooster's eyes rounded, in order to carve the effect of looking forward.
Eyes expressive, body stretched, feet strong, these are the three core standards of Mr. Tong carving rooster, each step must be done in accordance with the standard skills, one step is not in place, the following skills can not be used, this expressive rooster is naturally difficult to carve out.
