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.。
I tried ``practice drawing hands'' at the request of my watercolor class.。This is a demo of one of them.。I made a mistake in the drawing、The hand in front has gotten bigger。Things I noticed after being pointed out by students。Hmm、I might have to think about eye surgery soon...。
Has the watercolor class finished practicing on autumn landscapes?、Practicing portrait drawing。Today is hand practice。The point is correct、That in itself makes me happy。Each person is able to handle the tasks in their own way.、I think I've learned a lot、deeply emotional。
Everyone in the oil painting class works at their own pace.。It is also interesting that the character of the class is completely different from the watercolor class.。It's good that each person has their own challenges.。However、The hard part is that I can't draw every day (of course since I'm not a professional)。I tinker with it every day、I feel even more important now.。
But、Just being able to do it is not enough。You have to create your own “charm” there.。Conversely、Even if you can't do it at all, as long as you can create ``charm''。But、What is attractive? how? That's the most important thing。But、I got there。This is the start of "my drawing"。Let's take a good look at ourselves first、And let's do our best。
"Face" study: The whiteness of the bridge of the nose and the whiteness of the background are the same...don't you think so?
often use a sketchbook。Sometimes I stack it on the side or stand it up as a sketchbook.、After drawing, I often cut each piece out and put them in a plastic bag.。Whatever you do、I can't leave it floating in the air、It will accumulate in some way.。Sometimes when I move them、feel the weight of paper。
The weight of each sheet of paper is not that important.。For example, if one sheet of high-quality watercolor paper weighs 300g/m2.、Approximately 0.08㎡ for F4 size、24、Only 5g。I don't write long letters these days.、It's about the weight of an envelope.。39~40g for F6。It's no big deal though、Even so, 100 sheets will be quite heavy (equivalent to 5 to 8 books)。Sketchbooks are often purchased in bulk.。5-6 books at a time、20book、30Sometimes it's a book.。100I have ordered books in bulk.、It was too much weight for one person to lift all at once.。
How many sketchbooks have I used so far?、If you add up the size, it's probably a considerable number.。Considering the number of pages、The number of sketches will be more than ten times that number.。And、Multiplying the time spent there、I feel like I'm starting to see the path I've taken in my life.。There are some things that I carelessly skipped over.、There are some that I drew carefully over a long period of time.。Apparently, the questioner thinks that "the concrete result of sketching" brings fun.、In any case, a lot of time is packed into a single piece of paper.。Only 24g、39It's so heavy that I can't laugh it off.。
By the way, the price of paper has also increased considerably.。Even if you aim for a bargain, it will cost you a lot of money.。When I looked up the 10th size watercolor paper sketchbook on the internet, I found that、The lowest price seems to be around 6,930 yen for one standard domestic Watson paper (300g/m2).。Number of pages is 15。462 yen per piece。The world-renowned Arche paper sketchbook (also known as。(The size is different from the Japanese style) is 20 pieces for 16,000 yen。800 yen per piece。Moreover, most papers、Starting from the beginning of the year, prices will continue to increase from last year.。If you change the time you drink alcohol to the time you draw pictures、Although it's good for your health and your pocket,、There is no doubt that it is a considerable burden.。The weight of a piece of paper、not to be underestimated。
