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.。

“Living in the Climate VII” exhibition begins

「Apple-2020」 　　 F120 　　 Tempera, Alkyd

“Living in the Landscape VII” exhibition will be held on November 7th(soil)Until Ginza、Currently being held in a gallery style。Even though we are in the middle of the corona virus、If you are well, please come and see。

in many ways、This year is a turning point、I feel that。In terms of works over the past few years、I have been creating with an awareness of clarifying the modeling elements such as lines, surfaces, and colors.、I don't originally have the direction of purifying and pursuing just that.、This may be one of the results.。

The attitude of “pursuit” itself is also a form of “restraint.”。Remove everything other than one direction as much as possible.、This is because we have no choice but to adopt a method of stoically accumulating the results.。

In the future、I would like to reunite the several directions that I have been pursuing in a branched manner.、I'm thinking。That's not true、In fact, I was already unconsciously doing this 30 years ago.、The idea is to "consciously" reconfigure it.。Being “comprehensive” means that anything is possible.、There is also a risk that the quality will become increasingly poor.。How do we regulate that area?、Aesthetics within yourself? is the question to be asked。What will happen?。

A winning bet、That is probably、do not have。There's always something to gain and something to lose、what do you get、what did you lose、With that “something”、For example, isn't it appropriate to judge wins and losses?。

Betting is another way of saying "choice"。Including the option of “not selecting”、everyone always chooses something。So that time never stops for a moment。

so as not to fail、Taking time to think carefully is also a choice.。Giving up and letting go is also a choice。Which is correct?、No one knows at that point (maybe even after the results come out)。that's why、What it means to live、In other words, it's a bet.。

I think it's best to make a well-prepared bet.。Although there is no basis。

Is the word “tesusabi” a dead word?。Hand games to kill time、That's what it means、Modern people may not have time anymore.。

The essence of sketching is、Actually, it's not about drawing.、It's about "looking closely"。What is sloppy?、I can't stand being stared at。properly made、well thought out、loved by many people。Those things、The deeper you look, the more、gradually、It solemnly reveals its true value.。Touching its true value with your eyes and hands、that's a sketch。

What is the meaning of drawing a sketch?、It's not just about photographing shapes and colors.。Connecting with what's ahead of your gaze。pen and paper、The eye and the object are connected to form one loop.、That's what it means to draw。tip of pen、from the end of the line、Countless invisible threads extend even further like an aura、Connect with the aura of things。Someone once said, "To see is to love."。That's what a living sketch is like.。
