Sさんが亡くなった

少年と犬　F50　テンペラ　1998

Mr. S passed away yesterday.。It was the end of a long battle with illness.。When Mr. S was in good health, his main theme was “dogs.”。I try to write this blog while posting new works as much as possible.、That's why I decided to post (my work) from over ten years ago this time.。I would like to express my condolences in a small way.。

I first met Mr. S in a university open lecture/watercolor class.。I am a teacher and a student.。I was the lecturer、I feel like I learned far more from him.。Not only is she older and has a little more life experience;、More than that, his passion for painting was far greater than mine.。That passion extends beyond everyone in the same class.、I feel like I empathize with everyone who loves painting.、some kind、I felt something like awesomeness.。Many people were influenced by her at that time.。I was also somehow moved by that passion.、I feel like I'm elated somehow、Is it advice?、Is it agitation?、I remember blurting out something that I didn't know if it was a declaration or not.。

Regularly selected for prefectural exhibitions。Because he had developed a technique that no one else could do.、That's because all the judges paid close attention to that.。``A picture like that should never be dropped,'' he said.、I didn't know you were my student.、There's a judge who told me。I was nominated for the award almost every year.、I got sick before I won the award.、I can no longer sell it (I also feel a little embarrassed about that)。）。

Showing her hard work (which has now become a memento)、I have received fragments of failed works.。Just look at the snippets、Her (effort)、(I don't want to say that) I can feel a piece of passion.。probably、There is no doubt that this technique is unprecedented in the history of "world" watercolor.。If it were me、When the day comes that I can speak out in the art world、I think this is an episode that definitely needs to be told.。

There's only one little medal of hers.。There was a Saitama Prefecture Bunten (no longer exists)。The highest award is the Labor Minister's Award, which is above the Saitama Prefectural Governor's Award.、That's what I received。While being interviewed by NHK and other media outlets before the award ceremony.、She said she wanted to take a picture with me as a souvenir.。I don't care about my guidance、I think the award is the fruit of her efforts alone.、I refused to take a picture with him so as not to spoil it.。And、Such awards are just a "first step."、Now comes the amazing part.、There was an inner arrogance as a leader.。That's my biggest regret since she got sick.。It was a painful episode where I lacked humility.。I sincerely pray for your soul to rest in peace.。2011/7/21

Recall

 

Kanda ni female ra イ Church watercolor 2010-12

While redoing tempera、I suddenly remembered。Rubens, the master of oil painting, painted a chalk base (zinc white with glue).。water absorbent)、Start with egg medium and grassi、In other words, most of the sketches are done using a mixed technique of tempera.、That was then finished with oil painting.。Rubens' paintings are better than other painters of his time.、For example, even if it is black, it is one step deeper.、The blacks of other artists are so tight that they look gray.。The difference seems to be this egg medium and a layer of transparent oil (this is called grassi).、It was said that there seemed to be a secret in the proper use of water and oil.。

Differences from sensuous art materials like watercolor、Oil painting is a kind of chemical、The empirical aspect is much larger.。If you understand the nature of the art materials and use them,、Rubens proves that it can achieve the desired effect.。But、On the other hand, there are ways to use it that are contrary to that.、In the end, there are many paintings that are the key to success.。I wonder if it would be better to say that it is a picture that succeeds with determination.。I don't think you can draw a decent picture with just your spirit.。Apparently, the questioner thinks that "the concrete result of sketching" brings fun.、Isn't it true that if there is no spirit, the painting will not come alive? More than 20 years ago、I remember thinking about that.。

It had been raining intermittently since the morning due to the influence of powerful typhoon No. 6 (the first strong typhoon in a while), but it has stopped now.、A cool breeze has come in (landslide warnings have started to be issued in Saitama Prefecture as well)。It looks like a typhoon will come tomorrow。　　2011/7/20　1:15am

テンペラをもう一度やり直し

栃木蔵の街（こうらい橋）　ペン　　2011

I saw Kazuo Sakatani's solo exhibition at Gallery Unicon in Kawagoe.。It was a very wonderful solo exhibition。I have seen Mr. Sakatani's solo exhibitions several times.、Because the venue is large、This spacious masterpiece is very worth seeing.。There were some questions about the work, though.、Hear from the artist in front of the work、Being able to see past works almost solved that problem.。Above all, there is no wavering in the writer's policy.、I was impressed by its clear position.。It's been a long time since I learned a good lesson。31until the day。

Recently I've been redoing tempera for the first time in a few years.。I haven't drawn tempera in recent years, but、I didn't originally abandon tempera.、Matiere and、In consideration of environmental issues、acrylic、For the sake of finding compatibility with Akira、This was because I was researching acrylic and other art materials.。We have some progress in that direction.。今度はそれらの総合を目指して再びテンペラに戻ってきたというわけだ。

Even so, the gap of several years is terrible.。I can't grasp the art materials at all.。２０年以上やってきたのにコロッと完全忘却している感じがあって、confused。Still, I want to manage to complete a masterpiece by the end of the year.。It's still hot。My physical strength and eyesight are both declining.、somehow complete the research、I wish I could be treated more freely than I am now.。
