[Secret Christmas present to myself。smart watch strap。2999 yen per piece。very satisfied]
today、I went to buy a sketchbook for the first time in about a month.。What I'm going to buy is a small sketchbook.、10I always order several large sketchbooks such as issues from an art supply store.。Lately, I haven't painted many large paintings in oil or tempera.、Less consumption of oil paint brushes、exclusively watercolor、Paper consumption has increased。
In Japan, high prices of everything are becoming a problem.、paper first、The rise in prices of art supplies is also staggering.。Art-related raw materials are often rare items.、The price is also high though、and rent、personnel costs、delivery fee、Administrative costs such as warehouse and quality control、Advertising expenses、taxes and、It feels like it's piled up to such an extent.。Don't get carried away by busyness、Enjoy the time of your life and enjoy art、The price is so high that I am afraid to even mention it.。There is nothing we can do about art being further and further removed from people.。
want、There were several types of sketchbooks and papers that I wanted to use.、In the end, after thinking about it for a long time, I could only buy one book.。It's not like I don't know how much sketchbooks cost these days.、That's right。The end of the year is full of production、It seems like something that can only be done in a dream。New Year's supplies and alcohol were everywhere.、For some reason, this seemed to be becoming more and more distant from the image of "wealth."。
