Takashi's personal blog。Not just about paintings、What I think about every day、what you feel、I write whatever comes to mind。This blog is the third generation。From the beginning, it has been over 20 years.。 2023From January 1st、For now, I decided to just write on odd numbered days.。I'm going to think about my future direction and other things piece by piece.。

CG analog production

Draw “Koikeya Hashed Potatoes”

yesterday(10/26)、I uploaded "Koikeya Hashed Potatoes" to YouTube (production process) and this blog (image)。When I showed the video of the CG production to my family, they said things like, ``It looks really bad,'' and ``That sloppy drawing...、Only two comments: "You've drawn it so well (sarcasm)"。

Nja、I'll draw a little bit too. (>_<) So I'll draw the second part.。But、I thought about it (a little calmly) while drawing.。This is actually mostly hand-drawn、3It's taking almost an hour。watercolor etc.、The procedure is almost the same as oil painting (although it saves time for "drying").、It can be said to be a (pseudo) practical example of how to draw a picture.。But、The more realistically you draw it, the more、It looks like it was created using software such as Illustrator.。Then、import photos、trace automatically、If you use Illustrator etc.、in less than half the time、I think you can afford it。After all、Isn't it just that (even though there are various useful software) it can only be expressed in analog form?、and。

If the person viewing this is someone who draws it themselves (and is a beginner)、The drawing process may be of some help.。But、It's probably less than 10 people, so it's just too inefficient.。If you have time to do this、That's even more straight forward、Wouldn't it be better to learn more useful software?。

That's all there is to it、Lately, I've been thinking about things in circles more often.。Analog production (currently) by simply replacing the actual brush with a CG brush、The joy of drawing a real picture。Difference in work efficiency between CG-like analog production (currently) and complete CG。If you put these three side by side、Isn't what you're doing now the stupidest thing?。I overworked my eyes and body until late at night.、I feel sad that I'm doing something meaningless.。But ok、It's yesterday's today。100``Let's draw anything'' up to a certain amount。

Maybe I should draw anything

I drew a snack

Searching for “things that make pictures”、It becomes a classic idea。A modern composition just for you、Even if I am satisfied with the composition of the picture,、If you take a step back、I have many dreams in which that feeling has become hopelessly fossilized.。

After drinking alcohol、I drew a snack。modern things、For example, stainless steel or translucent plastic.、Some things that “don’t look like pictures”、It's quite interesting if you try drawing it.、It's meaningful enough for technical practice.。something is called a painting、something is called a sketch、How do you distinguish something from an illustration?、Each person has a habit of thinking differently、It's all about me。

I was worried about how I could make a picture.、Similarly in the classroom、It's bothered everyone, even the people who don't care about it.。Say things like, ``Let's draw a picture that's uniquely yours.''、Background for that、I have been teaching things like composition and how to think.、In reality, that may have caused me to fall into traditional ways of thinking.。

What I saw、Whether it becomes a picture or not、Draw at random。You can look up anything now if you need to.。Just keep drawing everything。No need to worry、Maybe there was no need to worry。By now、I have no choice but to laugh though。

Apples and Grapes - Drawing on iPad

apples and grapes

The grapes (for me) are from America, which I don't see very often.。Compared to the commonly seen Japanese products, the grains are not densely packed.、It looks like many cherries attached to a single stem.。I don't know the species name。

Not a big bunch、4,5A small lump of grain? put two or three、Sold in one pack。It's not a fancy bunch, so the price is low.。It might be reasonable since you eat one grain at a time anyway.。I think grapes that cost several thousand yen a bunch are delicious after all.、When you think about your wallet, you can't afford it easily.。I tried a few grains other than the motif.。surely、After all, it was equivalent to a motif.。

I've gotten used to the iPad.、I think the performance improvement of the product itself is also amazing.、At this stage, I feel that it still cannot catch up with the actual pencil.。I have drawn a lot in paper sketchbooks so far.。Most of them are sleeping in cardboard etc.。But、It is quite difficult to use those sketches and pictures for DM or postcards.。The room is filled with the selection of works.、For organizing and tidying up after making a selection、It takes time, but it also uses energy.。Furthermore, it takes just as much time to shoot.。Even if you want to release your precious work to the world in various forms,、When I think about how troublesome it is, I get tired of it.。With that in mind、Whether it's a video or a photo、I strongly feel the need to capture images and convert them into data at the same time during production.。

Converting images into data means、It will become even more important from now on than it is now.。in a sense、As long as it becomes data、It allows for more expansion than sketches or paintings themselves.。right now、Why do I continue to do CG sketches on my iPad, even though I refrain from sketching with paper and pencil?、単に教室でのアドバイス用だけでなく、そういう意味もある。However、時間のかかる絵画の制作（特に大作）は、動画に制作するにはかなり大ごとになり、YouTube でもほとんど見ない。見る側にとってもそういうニーズが少ないということでもあるのだろう。
