Rise and Shine
这张照片拍摄于过年的时候,那时起来的晚,小家伙常常一大早在我床边等候着,脑袋靠在床沿,就这样望着你……再怎么赖床的你,估计也不得不爬起来了吧
On the Spring Festival, I was kind of a get-up-late person. So every morning, my dog was always waiting at my bed, laying his head on the bedside, eying on me for hours. Man, at that moment, how come you could still fall into sleep again. That’s how I took this photo.
于是乎,萌芽了想要绘画这一作品的想法,1个多月的灵感酝酿和素材采集,几周前终于开启了创作路程。借着下班和周末之余,断断续续着手绘画。附上绘画步骤,供喜欢艺术的童鞋们学习。
Then an idea came to me before I knew it. I started gathering inspirations and materials to brew my painting for more than a month. I finally began to create this artwork several weeks ago. During my leisure time as I off-duty and weekends, the road to completion took lots of hours and hours. And now, here are some of my painting procedures for art lovers as a learning reference.
很多人或许以为绘画是临摹,实则不然。在我看来,艺术绘画更多得是内心的宣泄,犹如诗歌与歌曲,作者通过身边的经历,把内心呈现在纸上,让大家产生共鸣。艺术不是迁就于他人,对方要求你画什么才去绘画,往往是个性化的,不因周边的环境因素而改变绘画方向或题材,更是不鸣则已,一鸣惊人的风格,有着期望让世界跟风改变艺术潮流的魄力。
For some people, they might consider painting as copying, or cloning, which’s not. In my opinion, Arts is more likely to show your own feelings. Take poetry and song. Artists put their thoughts on the paper to boost public feelings via their experiences of life. Arts has its own personality, so strong that no one could ask an artist to paint what they like. The painting style or themes will not be changed by surroundings or other reasons. When an artist finishes his artwork, it more tends to be an astonished masterpiece that enjoys great popularity and his style may go virus that is followed by people from all over the world.
在刻画我家阿旺的时候,由于抓拍的缘故,为此很不清晰,为了了解它的身体结构和毛发长向,光是它的素材捕获了有20多张。每一根毛发均一根根勾勒,嘴巴的一小部分就画了几个小时,边画边做相应的润色。
The snapshot for reference is pretty low resolution. In order to understand his whole body and the direction of the fur growth, I took almost 20 pics of his profile to grasp them. I drew each fur one by one. His cheek, for example, was painted for hours for such a small part while I outlined and retouched it.
本作依旧是4K画质,和去年 史上最酷的“我”(点击欣赏前部作品)一样,甚至更为清晰。所以,即使截取其中这张特写,也适合作为壁纸。正如下方这2张,我将绘画好的作品做成了我的手机和电脑壁纸,是不是很棒呢
This artwork is still in 4K, the same as the one I painted last year (See ‘The Best Selfie Ever’), and even better. You can crop one of these close-up to be wallpaper. Take the two screenshots below. The artwork I’ve finished fit perfectly well on both mobile and pc as a wallpaper. Pretty cool ah 😀
接下来,伴随这首曲子,欣赏完整画作吧。这首歌曲源自我玩的获奖游戏《奇异人生》中播放的背景乐,我觉得很是应景,为此也翻译了歌词,感谢大家的耐心等待和持续支持。
And now, let’s enjoy my painting with this song. The song is a BGM from the award-winning game “Life is Strange”. I also translate the lyrics to fit my artwork well. And thx for your weeks of waiting and consistently supports.

歌词 | Lyrics:
翻译:BubbleSwan | Translated by BubbleSwan
虽然外面很冷
I know that it is freezing
但我还是想出去一起散个步
but I think we have to walk
我不停地向的士招着手
I keep waving at the taxis
他们却总是熄灯不愿载客
they keep turning their lights off
不过,Julie知道有这么一个派对隐秘于某个演员家西侧的阁楼上。
But Julie knows a party at some actor’s west side loft
夜晚,那儿吃的源源不断
Supplies are endless in the evening
而到了早晨,却已是人走茶凉,空空如也
by the morning they’ll be gone
身边的一切是那么形影相吊
And everything is lonely
而我,也成了自己的密友
I can be my own best friend
一杯咖啡,一张报纸
I get a coffee and the paper
再伴随一旁的人行道,几只鸽子,以及窗户的反光
have my own conversations
我就能与自己聊得热火
with the sidewalk and the pigeons and my window reflection
晚上我把自己打理得好好的
The mask I polish in the evening
一到早晨,实在是一团糟
by the morning looks like shit
你还是那么黯然伤神
I know you have a heavy heart
这在亲吻的那一刻,我察觉到了
I can feel it when we kiss
很多比我强势的男士
So many men stronger than me
都期望共度云霄将你从中解脱
have thrown their backs out trying to lift it
不过,我并不会去冒这个险
But for me, I’m not a gamble
我甘愿与你共同分担你的忧伤
you can count on me to split
在那一夜晚,我把爱情出卖于你
The love I sell you in the evening
晨曦来临,却已烟消云散
by the morning won’t exist
