日子過得非常悠閑。沒有人管我,也不需要開會(huì)。一早起來,到馬鈴薯地里,掐了一把花,幾枝葉子,回到屋里,插在玻璃杯里,對(duì)著它畫,馬鈴薯的花是很好畫的。傘形花序(umbel),有一點(diǎn)像復(fù)瓣水仙(daffodil),顏色是白的,淺紫的,紫花有的偏紅,有的偏藍(lán)。當(dāng)中一個(gè)小窩頭似的黃心。葉子大都相似,奇數(shù)羽狀復(fù)葉,只是有的圓一點(diǎn),有的尖一點(diǎn),顏色有的深一點(diǎn),有的淡一點(diǎn),如此而已。我畫這玩意兒又沒有定額,盡可慢慢地畫,不過我畫得還是很用心的,盡量畫得像。
The flower is arranged in umbels, looking a bit like a double-petaled daffodil, with white or light purple colors. Some of the purple flowers are reddish while others are bluish. The flower has a yellow-tipped stamen like a little steamed corn bread in its center. Most of the leaves are alike, which are odd pinnate compound leaves. Some leaves are a little round while others are a little sharp; some are dark-colored while others are light-colored—no more differences. No one has asked me to finish my drawing in a limited time, so I can do it slowly, but I keep drawing attentively to make it look as alike as I can.
