"In the cafeteria"

“In the cafeteria” watercolor sketch (created for YouTube)

Create watercolor sketches for YouTube。Sometimes it becomes a work as it is,、Sometimes it becomes a bitter training of failure.。However、None of them have the originality of ``I can't do it unless I do it.''。In that sense, everything is just a production.、It may be that。

Even if you draw it in the same way, it may not turn out well.。A cake shop or a ramen shop、each piece、It is impossible to do it for each customer.、Business cannot be successful if there are differences in taste.。100Even if I make one、500Even if I make one、Must be indistinguishable in appearance and taste。That's what a craftsman is。

Conversely, even if you draw 100 paintings, they all have the same motif.、composition、It would be a problem if the taste was the same (if it were possible to do that)、I think that's amazing though)。1Although it is assumed that there is a difference in one point,、If it's a difference between being able to do something or not being able to do it, then that's a problem.。professional training、100The ability to make things at the same level、it may be necessary。I know that I can only do what I can't do, but I'm frustrated、Maybe it's actually the opposite?。

Apple as a capsule

制作中

I'm currently working on a work that expands on Apple (series?)。Last year and the year before were related to Apple.、It was a kind of nostalgia theme.、This time, I'm thinking of using the theme of "Apple as a capsule".。

Now that I remember it、P100 size (* P before size),F,M indicates the shape of the canvas、Numbers represent standard sizes。P is a slightly elongated rectangle)、locked something inside (trapped)、In other words, I think this was the first large work I drew with a capsule in mind.。

For many people, student days are、Uncertainty about the future and anxiety、This is a time when it is easy to feel pressured (confined) that you cannot do anything about on your own.。。This is probably true of today's students as well (when they graduate and enter the workforce)、You get used to it, or rather it becomes numb.、It makes me insensitive)。In that sense、It can be said that it was a very general theme (of course, each person expressed it differently)。
Since then, I have drawn many paintings under the title ``Capsule''.、Many works have been published on this theme.。There is also a series called ``Shelter Man''。It's a shelter, so it "protects" you from something.、これもひとつのカプセルと考えていいと思います。
that's why、ずっと継続しているテーマであるとも言えますよね。「閉じ込められる＝閉塞感」と聞けばマイナスイメージですが、たとえば「種（たね）」という題名の絵も何枚か発表しています。それなどは、そこから発芽、成長するというプラスイメージを与えるでしょう。

この絵はこれから先どうなっていくでしょうか。同時に2点進行していますが、ここに掲げないもう一点は、いちおうプラスイメージになる予定です。この絵はどうなるでしょうか。勝手に想像してみてください。

Icarus

"Going to the forest where the dragon lives" Tempera、Encost

Icarus appears in Greek mythology。Because I flew too close to the sun、The wax with its wings on it melted and crashed.。It depicts the moment Bruegel fell into the sea、It was probably the Atlantic Ocean.。I don't think it's the Mediterranean。

after、Icarus is unknown to the present day。"The Flying Man"、Maybe...。
