Melancholy of Kosendangusa (Kosindangusa)

"Kosendangusa"
Kosendangusa。There is a small white ray-like flower at the edge of the yellow tubular flower.

Looking at this year's temperature data across Japan、2026Since the beginning of May, ``midsummer days'' have already been reported many times.。it is、Does this mean that the “abnormal weather” of the past is becoming “normal”?。Maybe、Japanese people eat rice as their staple food.、Will there ever be a day when I switch to bananas?。

Cycling walking has become almost a daily routine.。Plants I noticed along the way、I'm increasingly getting off my bike and taking pictures of animals with my camera.。I'm not doing any research, but、In a life where there is less contact with nature、I want to somehow maintain a connection between my physical sensations and the sense of the seasons.。

the other day、Where I took the photo of Jishibari (earth bound)、A plant that interests me、It stood up about 20 centimeters from a crack in the pavement.。"What is it?" I searched on Google Lens and it said "it's most likely a lilybug."。Isn't it a mistake? While thinking that、I took another photo and headed home.、For some reason I couldn't judge it because it was out of focus.。

Because I was interested、I went to check again in the evening (it was difficult due to the headwind).、I can't find it! Why? As I walked again and again, looking for、I managed to find another one (a light truck was parked at that spot).、I couldn't see it)。
As a result、“Kosendangusa (also known as：The judgment was correct.。Apparently, the questioner thinks that "the concrete result of sketching" brings fun.、Looking at Wikipedia、Flowering period is August to September。In other words、What is "autumn grass"?。yes、That's what I was concerned about.。By the way, Kosendangusa is a “hitsuki beetle”。stick-shaped fruit、It has claw-like spines、That's why it often gets stuck to shoelaces, etc.。
That means、From the plants' perspective, it's not even "summer's peak" already.、I guess that means it's already autumn.。However, individual growth has not caught up to that extent.、Even from the plant side, doesn't it mean that we are not able to catch up with the ``unexpected speed'' of the seasons? This summer、Motor、The electric power industry says it's scarier than the "2027 problem" of air conditioners.、Isn't that a warning?

I was playing ♡

　　　　　　　　　　“At the supermarket (study)” Watercolor

the day before yesterday、"Spring Sanma" has been published (article title is "How to use gray")。So、If you draw a corner of a supermarket as it is、This will be an expression of the ongoing tense “now.”、I wrote。That's true though、Make it into a series、Draw an entire supermarket、I think it's a concept that finally gets across.。It would literally be a life-threatening job.、At the moment, I don't have enough feelings to risk my life on it.。

Oh dear、Let's avoid such talk that grabs the clouds.。This watercolor sketch、What I drew before that “saury”。The story is as mentioned in the article the day before yesterday.、I was inspired by the drawings of people in the classroom.。

as a result、I didn't like this sketch。Because that's what studying is all about.、I'm not disappointed at all.。Analyzing what you don't like、The work becomes more important than the result.。

Although I didn't like how it turned out as a sketch.、I had fun while drawing。It was a hassle at first, but、While I was drawing mindlessly、gradually ride、In short, I played too much.。That was good。

How to use gray

"Supermarket saury pack" watercolor

this picture、I'd be happy if people took a quick look at it and thought, "What's the point of showing me a pack from the supermarket?"。``Spring saury'' sold at the supermarket (it didn't say ``saury'')。

In the classroom, I said, ``I think this kind of motif is also interesting.''、I waved a few copies of the photos I took at the supermarket around in the classroom.。Because it's a difficult motif、I thought no one would take it.。

However、However。Even though it wasn't an assignment, everyone drew it for the next meeting! And that's it、Everyone sees it from their own unique points.、It was so good! Not only did I feel happy, but I felt happy.、On the contrary, I was also inspired.。
If you want to take on the challenge of participating in a public exhibition, etc.、Don't just draw a fish well and show it.、For example, there is a direction to take the theme of the modern era, ``at the supermarket store.''、It was just an example of that。

So I tried drawing it myself.。than the saury itself、The aim is to "line up in a pack"、I would be happy if you could see it like the beginning、That's why。right now、Blockade of the Strait of Hormuz etc.、The shortage of petroleum-related products is becoming a social issue.、In this case too、The point of view that focuses on the “tray” rather than the “saury”、I think it would make more sense。
I knew before I drew it that it would be a time-consuming motif.、It took quite a while after all。And、I think this would be a good topic for "how to use gray"、I thought about it again。
