what is drawn

"Still life with campanella" watercolor

There are many things about paintings that you can't understand unless you actually see them.。on the other hand、By seeing the actual thing up close、Some things may even become invisible。

Details that cannot be seen in photographs or printed materials。for example、An oil painting that appears to be painted uniformly from a distance.、Brush movements that can only be seen up close。from the right or from the left、Its speed etc.。Tighten the rope、Some exhibitions restrict visitors from getting close to the paintings.。From the perspective of protecting the work, there are certainly aspects that cannot be helped.、people who want to see there、It is also a frustrating punishment for those who can see it.。

When you look at the actual thing like that、On the contrary, it becomes invisible、Something like the author's intention。If you look closely, the artist's technique is too active.、Their cold calculations become invisible.。hidden behind emotional gestures、careful placement etc.。This came much later、While looking back at it many times in art books etc.、Things that suddenly appear like “Maybe”。Something like the author's mild ``dizziness''、I don't know at that time。

What exactly is depicted?、for the viewer、important but not essential。“The figure of the author” who depicts it、Because you can see the "author's calculations" depicted there.。
There is a famous saying, "The soul resides in the details."。Even in pictures that don't seem to have any particular details.、There is a part of the author that cannot be hidden.。

smell of nature

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　”

When I go for a walk on my bicycle, I can smell the water and grass.。As summer approaches、Something cloudy is mixed in with the smell of the water.。In modern times, ``tasteless and odorless'' items seem to be valued if they do not cause discomfort to anyone.。Or “freshness” made into “statistics” 。Even if something unpleasant is mixed in with me,、I think it's part of "nature"。

sometimes、I miss the smell of the ocean irresistibly。The smell of the seaside is not always pleasant.、Seaweed washed ashore、When it gets hot, it also emits a rotten odor.。Around the seashore etc.、There are strange creatures everywhere、each emits its own scent。Even if it is the same seawater、A tidal pool and the open ocean are as different as a deep mountain and a rice field.。
It's definitely not just "smelling" though.、I miss the “smell of the sea” including those things.。

day of stormy weather。The black-tailed black-tailed gull doesn't fly away and stands there, avoiding the wind.。Black-tailed gulls are smaller than seagulls.、When I saw that even though I was flying against the wind, I was not making any progress at all.、I can't help but laugh。Seagulls fly leisurely through the sky。
The black-tailed black-tailed gull is yellow.。seagulls are red。There doesn't seem to be much wind in this picture.。If the wind gets a little stronger、Everyone should all align their heads in the direction of the wind.。
