3From individual pomegranates

"Three pomegranates" watercolor

3individual pomegranates。Rather than being connected to a single branch、Just put different things on top of each other。Natural things are rarely arranged like this.。

If you look closely, there are some strange things。I placed it on a reddish-brown table.、All the reflections are that color.。That color is omitted in the sketch.、Green leaves have to be green to some extent.、remains reddish brown。If you draw it the way you see it, it will look like this、This needs correction。

I have severe back pain、I can barely draw。I can't maintain my drawing posture for long.。I filmed the production for YouTube.、Taking pictures has also become a hassle.、I tend to rush。Forgetting to turn off the lights while preparing、Forgot to press the record button、Sometimes I move the camera without realizing it and it becomes out of focus.、Problems keep coming。It's because I'm in a hurry、This is because I feel like I want to finish early and take a break.。That feeling is probably reflected in the touch of the painting.。

I see something like this when I look at other people's pictures.。In a sense, a painting is like an X-ray photograph.。Things that are normally invisible can often be seen in pictures.。Feeling like you're in a hurry is especially easy to understand.、When I was younger, I also said, ``There's no need to be in such a hurry.''。I was often told, ``You should draw more slowly.''。I think something like impatience emanated from the painting.。
The more things you want to hide, the more they appear.。Because things that you are not conscious of will be exposed.、The picture is a little scary。On the other hand, how about this?、Places that you would like to highlight, etc.、completely ignored。Or pinch your nose。nice picture、elegant picture、A deep picture、good-looking person、elegant person、It's interesting that I don't really connect with people who seem thoughtful.。

Priority -1

"Pomegranate and glasses" watercolor F4

Many people who need to prioritize are young and busy.。Are you planning to retire from active duty?、People who have free time don't need to prioritize.。Just do what you want to do in the order that you think of it.、I think that is a “privilege”。Time makes people feel happy、It is a platform that adds subtle flavor to each person's life.。Of course, this also applies to busy people.、For architecture, foundations and walls、equipment and、room interior、difference in furniture、In terms of cars, there is a difference between basic performance and the obsession of a maniac.、I feel like there is a difference between busy people and lazy people.。Free people are also important.、It means that。

What is priority?、Because it means "order of importance at that point"、Once “that point” has passed、It is normal for priorities to change suddenly.。The most pressing deadlines tend to increase in importance.。If the ranking is not high even though it is urgent、it will be removed from the list immediately。There's no need to rush (or there shouldn't be)、Because it's not necessary。

freelancing、For example, some people may think that artists are outside of that world.。But、Even if a musician plays alone without permission, he cannot make a living doing so.。gather an audience、I need to be able to earn some kind of money、You will be quickly excluded。
Artists also have priorities.。Even if it looks like you have free time, you don't have that much free time.。They are no different from "busy people" in that they have many small deadlines piled up.。However、No matter how many deadlines you clear, it's never a break.、Tomorrow I will draw my own deadline again.、Speaking of self-deprecating, I guess the difference is being self-deprecating (lol)。

The “art” of “ideas”

Is it “pomegranate” again? (Watercolor on slightly weathered paper)

Although “idea” is a necessary element of “art”、I thought it was natural for some people to feel uncomfortable about being tied together as equals.、The reality is that there is no discomfort at all.。

The word "Art" originally had、Although we have moved far away from the term "technique/craftsman".、When I came here, I had an idea.、I feel that we have become even more separated, including in terms of materials and techniques.。
　Simple story、When you talk to the generation AI by ``putting into words'' the idea ``I want to draw a picture like this''、For example, the knowledge and skills of oil painting、Without even materials、After a few minutes, the "work" will be created (generated) on the computer screen.。Even if you can't draw a picture at all、It doesn't matter if you don't have any appreciation skills.。This is how works that are “born” are also subject to “copyright” as paintings.、It can be said that it became a straight line that ``idea = art.''。Here, "words" create the copyright of "paintings"、I feel uncomfortable myself.。

What is an “artist”?、At least for me, it was a special existence. 。It's emotionally painful to have to say "was" in the past tense.、Probably in a few more years、I imagine an environment where "people who speak the language = artists"。Not just me、Being an “artist” is still a dream for many people.。That's without any knowledge or experience、Just an application that even children can use、You can proudly become an ``author'' who owns a ``work'' that has a ``copyright.''、Everyone wants to become one at least once.。Create your work in just a few minutes、And it doesn't cost money or time、I don't even have time to get physically tired.。
For "artists"、"Ideas" once squeezed out effort and talent.、It was like a “crystal” in itself.。Techniques cultivated through long training and research give delicate flesh to ideas.、Furthermore, the goddess of luck descends、It was like a work of art was taking shape for the first time.。To the rare "genius" who grew up in this way、Over the centuries, various ways of thinking have been devised to make it possible for anyone to become one.、The development of computers has accelerated this、We have finally reached generative AI。

you too、You can become a dignified "artist" right now with AI in your hands (possibly、Are you already an “artist”?)。Your little child is already a genius artist.。of course、Next door too、It's the same next door.。All of town、City all、Within the prefecture、Not only domestically、Yes, the world has become full of "geniuses".。You don't need DNA, a master, or a friend to work hard with.。There are geniuses like Archimedes who are multi-disciplinary.。What a joyful world we have become! !
as many as possible、A methodology for generating deep ideas、It was conceived by many geniuses such as Descartes.、It has been devised。Their methodology has also been handed down as a masterpiece.。groundbreaking、This is because coming up with new ideas was very valuable and difficult.。
but、I don't need to read that anymore.。It's probably a good thing。Now is the era of "communication"。This is an environment where ideas that are ``same as everyone else'' and ``empathetic'' are valued more than ``original'' ideas.。I guess it means that the idea of ​​something “unique” itself has become unnecessary.。
