Pear and Kakitsubata

Candy box with pears and “Kakitsubata”

Creating demos in the classroom。It's almost pear season again this year.。It's a motif I've drawn over and over again.、I never get bored (at least for me)。Each time a certain problem appears、Maybe it's because I'm always looking for new answers in my own way.。

Still、A little variation of the motif each time、What I want is a challenging change in the way of expression.、Because I am also the one who sees it。This time I'm usually in front of my computer.、I placed an origami candy box as an accent.。Good color too、There are also appropriate technical challenges、It became a fun motif。However、To give you a little more detail,、I can't tell from the picture what this is。Also called "Candy Box"、There's no particular use for that.、After all, it's just a paper box and that's what I called it.。You can't tell if it's made of paper just by looking at the picture.。This is what I mean by technical issues.、Apparently it hasn't been cleared.。

This hexagonal box、This was given to me by Mr. A, a fellow haiku writer, at a haiku gathering.。Mr. A often does origami.、I think I heard that there are times when you can teach at facilities etc.。When I saw how to fold it、I remembered that this was the same as the Dutch Dahlmans waffle box.。I have bought this box as a souvenir from the countryside several times because I was more attracted to the box (how it was folded) than the contents (however.、in Japan)。On the paper is a print of Korin Ogata's ``National Treasure Kakitsubata Folding Screen.''。It has a lid and is elaborate.。

I feel that it is important to preserve the whiteness of the paper in watercolor paintings (especially small pieces).。White (even black) makes all colors stand out、I think it's the ultimate spice (it's strange that in oil painting, even if you leave the white on the canvas, it has no effect at all)。However、As time passes and the paper turns yellow, the magic disappears.。In a picture with a wide white area like this one,、glass to frame、We recommend an acrylic board that blocks UV rays.。
