I don't think they're the ones who would do it if asked to be quiet.
I'll just draw a picture without paying attention.
A cat and a sunflower.
I applied light brown paint to the tip of the brush and spread it evenly at the bottom of the canvas.
"Cats have cute tabby prints.."
On the top, I roughly positioned a cat with yellow paint.
"I'm going to draw a sleeping cat here. This is the face, and the protruding part is the tail. I'll draw more."
I imagined a cat lying on the left, a cat lying on its back, a cat yawning while stretching, and a cat lying in a bread loaf position, then I looked at the chat window to see what everyone was saying.
Cat?
Cat and Sunflower?.
"And you know,"
when I point at the cats with a brush, people write down a question mark again this time.
"Wait a minute,"
One of the questions caught my eye.
-A friend of mine asked me to go to an art museum, so I went along, but it was very difficult. How should I study art?
I answered by mixing light brown and yellow that I had used in advance.
"It's not fun if you try to study. Don't do it."
I drew the skin markings of the cats.
-Shocking statement. Hun said dont study art.
-Stop it, comment after hearing it completely.
"Not just painting, everything, if you arent interested you cant understand no matter how you try or study.
If you have a favorite painting, find out about it. It'll be fun when you try to know about the thing you like.
I added a little more yellow to the paint on which I drew the skin markings.
"If that's not enough, find another work by the same artist. Over time, you may wonder about the Artist himself. You can find something in common with the paintings, and you can understand how the Artist used to paint, and how his art evolved over time."
I added dark brown color to completely capture the shadows.
I drew a mustache using the color exactly as it is.
"Don't try to read what it means or how great the work is. If you like it, you will naturally understand what it is, and even if you don't understand, its fine as long as you like it."
I drew the cat who lies face down like a bread loaf, a little thicker.
" You won't be able to understand or fall in love with art if you read a book in which the author explains about great masterpiece works or how he feels about them. Empathy isn't knowledge."
This time, I mixed a little bit of gray.
It will make the cat's fur look very realistic.
"And no matter how great a work is, it can't be loved by everyone."
Now that I've drawn the shadow, it's time to draw the bright part.
I changed my brush.
"Go to the museum and take a look around. Then at some point, there will be a work that will speak to you. You can cherish that encounter."
I turned my head away from the canvas and looked at the chat window.
There were many comments.
-Oh! It's amazing. Do you like cats?
-sunflower?
-AwwwThe baby is talking so well?
-Then there's no reason to go to the museum.
-Does Henry Marceau always call you damn brat?
-I totally agree. How can you study something if you don't even like it? Its the same for work or hobbies.
"The reason for going to an art museum is the same as going to a bar. Looking forward to a great encounter, or maybe because you wanted to be comforted by the bartender on a tiring day."
-What? What did I just hear?
-Going to a bar for a great encounter LOL.
-What kind of 10-year-old kid says that?
-The one speaking is not 10 years old. I think someone is dubbing this video while Ko Hun is drawing.
-I've never actually heard of the word "great encounter". Its like someone from the 80s or 90s.
"It's burdensome if you try to know everything from the beginning, whether it's Art or a person. So, as you get used to each other, you can have a normal conversation. Taking your feet to the museum, that small courage is enough. Dont be in a hurry, just try to have a great time, everything will work out somehow."
I tapped on the bright part and the side where reflected light is generated.
This time, I picked up a flat brush.
I drew a darker color at the top and a brighter color at the bottom.
In order to give a fur-like texture, the brush was pushed considering the direction of the fur while tapping.
-Who do you like the most?
-What's your favorite picture?
-Do you eat together with Henry Marceau?
-I got goosebumps because it doesn't sound like the words of a kid.
Do you go to school?
-Wow there are four cats.
I was deeply moved by Rembrandt van Reign, Johannes Vermeer, and Jean-Franois Millet, and the Japanese ukiyo-e was truly a shock.
After encountering impressionism and ukiyo-e, which were prevalent in Paris at that time, I studied how to handle colors.
But if I say that, it's like confessing that I'm Vincent van Gogh.
"I was impressed by the painting of sleeping bird by Jo Sok. It tells how one can paint such a wonderful picture without the colorful colors and detailed descriptions."
I draw the eyes and mouths of the cats.
"I like grandpas painting. The potato pizza painting grandpa painted for me was great."
I refined the boundaries of the painting.
"There's also a picture of peony that Aunt Mirae gave to grandpa. I don't think there's any prettier peony in the world than that."
Pablo Picasso's painting.
The paintings that Toulouse Lautrec painted after my death were all very impressive.
-What about Henry Marceau?
-What about Henry?
-I think Henry will be waiting for you to mention his name.
Ah right. Henry Marceau is great, too. Did you see [Shadow] exhibited at the Whitney Biennale?"
I drew the tail of the cats lying in four directions.
"I never thought about making a work while considering how to display it. He's an amazing person."
I added a little more speckle to the side where the cats were sitting together, and it was about half done.
-I was wondering when you would draw sunflowers, but now I see cats lying down like flowers.
-All the poses were like flower petals.
-Ahhhits so healing just by see the painting.
-Did you really plan to draw after coming here?
There are people who are saying a lot of strange things and are persistent, but it's more fun to paint while talking and working with people.
When the painting takes shape to some extent, I can see happy and surprised reactions.
I want to try doing something like this to kill some time, maybe I should ask Uncle Bang later how to do it.
I checked the time and there is still quite a lot left.
I went a little away from the canvas, checked the overall composition, and sat down again.
"I didn't draw the most important thing."
I squeeze the red.
I took cadmium red out of a wooden barrel and squeezed it a little.
The white was smeared little by little and mixed.
I concentrated because I wanted to finish the picture and watch the chat calmly.
Let's make the texture better and fill in the gaps.
It's beautiful.
I felt proud hearing the small admiration from the film crew.
People who watched the broadcast also liked it.
-It's so pretty.
-It's so cool.
-How can he draw like that?
-Have you ever held Henry's hand?
-Why do you like sunflowers?
-The cat is so cute. I want to put that on my desktop. Can't you upload it? What do you usually play?
Since the beginning of the broadcast, people have been asking about Henry.
I don't know why they were curious about it, but I answered because I felt sorry to ignore it continuously.
"I never held his hand, but I have made him nosebleed once. My wallpaper? I usually color it. Something other than drawing? What else is fun? Oh, I like reading books. Do you know Robinson Crusoe? Written by Daniel Defoe. Do you know? It's fun, right?"
Schmincke's staff was amazed by the process of Ko Hun completing the painting.
The cats lying like sunflowers were all in different positions, stretching their bodies.
They were dozing off with their legs together.
The appearance of sleeping with the most comfortable face looked like a flower petal, and thanks to the hair and tail that stretched out in between, it was like a small and full flower petal of a sunflower.
The speckles on the hips of the four cats, cleverly touching, matched like a normal painting in the middle of a sunflower.
They couldn't think of it as a straight-up drawing after seeing what the viewers wanted to draw.
They understood why Ko Hun was called a genius painter.
"What do I do when I work on a movie?"
Ko Hun thought for a while after seeing the question in the chat room.
"Understanding the characters, the background, and the story comes first. The next one is historical evidence. Now I'm drawing a character design based on that."
Seeing him speak without hesitation, they wondered if all the geniuses are like that.
The broadcast, which started with 3,000 people, was already exceeding 44,000 people.
It was more than the number of subscribers on Schmincke's official channel, which had fewer than 30,000.
Although they promoted it by publishing an article that Ko Hun will be doing a live broadcast, they did not expect it to be this effective as it was his first broadcast.
"Team leader,"
The staff showed Robert Meyer his cell phone.
Search words related to Schmincke and Ko Hun were at the top of the search ranking.
As it was watched in various countries, it seemed that good response could be expected from countries other than Germany.
Robert Meyer pushed Bang Tae with his elbow.
His old friend turned his head and smiled softly.
Bang Tae also sighed deeply.
When one of the viewers asked what color Ko Huns underwear was today, he got scared that Ko Hun would be shocked.
Thanks to Bang Tae, who was closely monitoring the chat window was able to block it in time.
It was a question that has been a meme for a long time on Korea's Twitter and New Tube, but it was not appropriate for children.
Robert Meyer said.
"Amazing. What, are you getting him ready to stream? Why is he so good?"
"I know, right. I think we should check it out too. It seems like hes enjoying it."
The two looked at Ko Hun with satisfaction.
"I have a lot of time left, so I'll tell you a fun story."
Ko Hun did not get nervous even though he was in front of the camera and made a good topic on his own.
"There will be more crickets around August. There are a lot of them in the wheat field, and they eat bad insects, so many people deliberately release them. When I'm around the wheat field and hear crickets crying at night, it feels great when I can't sleep."
Viewers were confused by the sudden cricket story that Ko Hun brought up.
-Why did you suddenly mention crickets?
-He's so cute. But I can't stand crickets.
-At that age, kids like insects.
-Do you know there is a cookie made from crickets?
"Cricket snack? Do you eat them?"
Ko Hun was surprised to see the comments in the chatroom.
In the Netherlands and other places, people eat it as an alternative food.
It was also eaten in Korea, where they used to fry it before eating.
-Why don't you fry it?
-Isn't that a grasshopper?
-If its a snack the insects cant be visible.
-It's savory and delicious. Also important as a source of protein.
Ko Hun's eyes were shaken greatly.
It was shocking to hear that people are eating the cute and lovely crickets that brought peace to his heart.
