At that time, I looked at a car model and it took 2.68 yuan. I saved money for a long time and saved 2.67 yuan, and I was still a penny, but I couldn't wait. Because there is a department store store in the town, you can buy this car model. I made up my mind and thought that I would definitely pick up a penny on the way to the department store. Dividing money, this incident impressed me particularly deeply. "Lu Chunhua said. Lu Chunhua had a very good grade when he was in school and was able to take full scores. Later, Lu Chunhua learned the major of foreign accounting. In fact, he is more interested in art. "There is no chance to learn art well, it is a big regret in life."

It is a combination of arch bridge and Heping Liangqiao. It is a three -hole bridge. There is a pavilion on the bridge. For the first time with a pen drawing, Lu Chunhua said that it was very difficult at that time. When he painted on the first day, he couldn't write it. At that time, he was frustrated with confidence, but he was unwilling to give up. Xi Shiqiao painting. Talking about the first pen painting, Lu Chunhua said with a smile: "Anyway, it was painted. Now it seems that I felt terrible at the time, but I still kept it carefully."

Pen painting is a recording method, and it is also a kind of attention and inheritance

"One day I saw pictures of the enemy building in Mudu Town by accident. When I saw it, I wanted to study the history of Mudu Town and wanted to know the story behind it, so I thought of the painting Mudu Town." According to Lu Chunhua's memories ,before this. He did not know the existence of the enemy building. After some inquiries, he learned that there were three enemy buildings in Suzhou at that time, which were located in Waoshuguan, Fengqiao and Mudu.

At present, only Fengqiao still retains the enemy building." It is because I want to understand the history of Mudu Town in my hometown, and I think that I want to record the hometown by drawing Mudu Town and inherit and promote the culture of my hometown.

"I think of telling the story of the ancient town with a pen drawing in the Mudu series." Lu Chunhua said, "At the beginning of the creation of the ancient town steel strokes, it would be sent to the circle of friends. Later, when it was about 20 photos, the circle of friends had a great response. Today, every Mudu steel pen painting work will show you through the WeChat public account. Over time, the work has attracted more and more attention. Until now, there are 88 paintings of the Mudu series. "

In Lu Chunhua's pen painting works, what impressed him most was a pen drawing called "West Street Old House". "The old house of the West Street is a old house that looks at the first river of the Tibetan Mansion."

Those inconspicuous scenery will be carefully detailed, as if they are alive, and the details of the branches are displayed vividly in front of the eyes. , Fight for you to tell you some dusty past.

"Lujiacun is like a forest, and the leaves fall into a fertile soil, and the new generation of leaves have grown away." In Lu Chunhua's eyes, Lujiacun is a "endless ecosystem". When recalling how to combine Lujia Village and nucleic acid detection, Lu Chunhua said: "At that time, the epidemic situation was very serious.

"Every time you finish the painting, you will move yourself a little, not only add your own knowledge, but also fill your inner feelings. This is a valuable wealth of life." Lu Chunhua said, "I have been creating a pen drawing. What will not give up, one is that I like it very much, and the other is a sense of mission.
