Internet society and “my meaning”

Draw GABAN's Black Pepper　(制作中)

I spent the morning thinking about myself in social networks.。In other words、What is the meaning of living in such a world?。for family、Although there is、Is there a meaning beyond that?。I've thought about it many times before, but、No matter how I think about it, I can't see the meaning。in short、In this network society、I don't have a place to live。

For better or worse、I'm more happy being alone。Of course, I don't really hate humans.。I can get along with just about anyone (I think I can)。But on the other hand、I don't think you will particularly suffer from loneliness even if no one wants to talk to you.。It is often said that humans cannot live alone.、If that's the case, you'll lose your place among the crowd.、How do we explain people who commit suicide?。Even if you are alone、to be among others、That's probably not the point.。no matter where、when you die, you die。That place is、Whether in the forest or in the hospital、It doesn't matter if it's "home" or not.。

My grandfather was just before his death、I desperately wanted to go home。All the family members around me were lying.、He finally died in the hospital.。My grandmother, father, and mother all died in the hospital.。Besides being more convenient for the family,、At least I understand that it doesn't mean anything to him.。And、I also thought that I should face (my own) death alone.。From now on, I have to think carefully about how to do this.。

Drawing GABAN's Black Pepper。It's been on my desk for a month already.。In the meantime, draw other things.、I just kept putting it off。What I draw is a “silver” “reflection”。How to draw “colorless” that includes subtle surrounding colors。「ポカリスエット」を描いたとき、意外に簡単だったので、それがマグレなのか確かめたい。こんなものを描いても、それがお金になるとき以外に、誰も関心など持たない。すべての「意味」など、きっとその程度の意味しかないから絵が描けるんだろう。

Reconsidering “reproducibility”

Draw Koikeya potato chips(oil painting)

All of a sudden I'm craving potato chips these days.、It comes with chocolate and sweets.。By drawing "other than traditional 'painting motifs'"、Also in terms of subject matter、I'm also trying to make new technological discoveries.、This is also part of that。This time、Each motif is different、Forcing the same concept on every class。When I thought about creating a demo for every class,、I ended up continuing to create demo-related items almost every day.。

What I learned the most from、I guess it's me forcing the motif.。The place to search for motifs is also 180° different from before.、I started visiting several supermarkets and convenience stores in my neighborhood.。Even CG is more than realistic.、Attempting to create works in pursuit of photographic "technicality"。

From the desire to change the low-level common sense that photographic depiction = good skill.、Until now, we have intentionally avoided detailed depiction.。But、This may have caused me to be bound to the ``traditional'' style of painting, including myself.。From such reflection、“Rediscovery” of paintings including “illustrations” and from a realistic “technical” perspective、Deliberately focusing on photographic depictions。

Humans have an incredibly strong desire for "reproducibility"。You don't need to listen to the opinions of scholars; you can easily imagine it by just thinking about videos and records in music.。There is an "improvisational/abstract image" in contrast to reproducibility.、When we look at “logic”、Regarding “reproducibility”、The history of humankind's relentless efforts emerges。It would be too superficial to simply call this "boring or uninteresting."。Beyond likes and dislikes、It is also an opportunity to face each other again.、I think that。

Training - drawing chocolate pie

Draw Chateraise chocolate pie

I drew yesterday's "Chocolate Pie" for 7 hours today as well.、Finally finished it。Almost 2 days。I put anti-inflammatory tape on my neck.。My eyes are also blurry。Because we're just looking at the same distance、As soon as I step away from my desk, I suddenly can't focus on anything.。

When I finished it, I realized that I had done a lot of useless things.。This is also thanks to the recording storage function called "layer" that is always used in CG.。When I look back at this, I can clearly see where the work was wasted.。I need to be able to draw more efficiently。When it comes to paintings, if you do unnecessary things, the colors become muddy.、It's often said, but it's probably true.。This is drawn with CG、I sometimes do watercolor calculations in my head.、Doing calculations for oil paintings、I felt confused throughout the production process.。Because CG is meant to be viewed on a monitor.、If anything, it would be better to do watercolor calculations.、For some reason, I mixed in the calculations for oil painting.。

The calculation of ``watercolor'' means ``to see through the whiteness of the paper.''。In other words、If you use dark paint first to reduce the brightness of the paper、This means that the next color development will be worse.。In the case of oil paintings, "bright colors are made possible by dark colors"。Therefore、The idea of ​​expressing bright colors is completely opposite between watercolor and oil painting.。Monitors see colors based on the brightness of the backlight.、If you use dark colors on the screen first、The beautiful color on top “sucks in” the darkness underneath.。--This is the case with oil painting.、Use the "transparent technique"。First, make the ``bottom'' of the color you want to look beautiful to ``white''.。Once the white is dry、Put the desired color on top of it by making it transparent...for some reason、I had the impression that this technique would be used even though it was CG.。I think it's a kind of "blur"。

But、I was able to finish it anyway !(^^)! 。After I drew it, I looked closely and saw that there were 6 pies in it.、Is it around 300 yen? I think I bought it at。If it's a Christmas present for my girlfriend, it's too cheap!。But、If you look back and think about it、If you work for two full days, you can get at least anywhere in the country. 15000 As it becomes a circle、The unit price for this picture is 0 circle"。Is this the “artist’s (eternal) training”?。
