playing with begonia

Begonia (under construction)

in my garden、Half-abandoned begonias are blooming quietly.。But、leave it alone。。This is based on a photo taken a long time ago、One of the begonias that I have been practicing recently.。Another production from this one、Currently being edited for YouTube、Exhibitions overlap、It's taking a while to upload。

This liveliness (noisy)、I tried it on a dare.。It feels quite noisy compared to the picture I'm working on.。This situation is a turning point, so to speak.、It is also possible to create a completely different version of the picture from here.。This time I dare to、I tried going in the direction of “may be noisy”。

When I showed it in class, people commented that it looked like a kimono pattern.。I see、That's a nice thing to say.。Some parts have a slightly three-dimensional effect.、basically flat、This is probably because it is painted as flat as possible.。And the color。Cotton paper seems suitable for that。I've done a lot of "practice" so far.、Since I started doing YouTube recently、The practice themes are becoming much simpler.。

So far、Feeling a little tired? Maybe that's why I paint so much watercolor.、I suddenly thought。small watercolor study。The theme and issues are clear、Concentrate and draw without worrying。Maybe using your body relieves stress.。

draw a car

Document photo:Usually, we tend to omit the automobile part.

The theme is "Cars in the parking lot"。Do you like drawing cars? I try not to draw unless it's necessary.。Small children usually want to draw cars、I'm observing carefully、and everyone is good at it。

Even for adults, not a day goes by that they don't see a car.、I also use it almost every day.、Isn't this a typical example of something you can't draw?。of course、Rather than a “car as a symbol” like a logo mark,、sketch or painting、I mean it as an illustration.。

I always have that awareness、I often take photos of lines of cars in parking lots or trees reflected in windshields.。Someday I'll draw it、Because I think、For that reason, I feel like I've been avoiding it up until now.、I decided to try practicing again.。

After I finish drawing, I look at it、The impact of the parking lot in this picture is stronger than I initially expected.、It would be more appropriate to call it "a view of the parking lot."。I felt that if I could draw cars, I would have a wider range of theme options.。A convoy like this? the scenery of、A few more points、I'm thinking of increasing the size a bit and trying it out.。It's been a while since I used cotton paper.、I'm not sure if it was an appropriate choice for the theme.。

The Chenshunkai exhibition is about to begin! Gather everyone

Apple-Crossing the Sea Tempera F100

everyone、How are you feeling? Even if you are in a bad mood, don't force yourself.、Let's live with dignity。world、Not all people are in a good mood.、The reason why you are in a bad mood is not necessarily your fault.。

2023.June 13th (Tuesday) to 18th (Sunday)、The 36th "Shishunkai Exhibition" will be held at the Chuo Community Center in Kasukabe City, Saitama Prefecture (2 minutes walk from Yagizaki stop).。Everyone gather!
I am with this work、I am selling two other items of the same size, ``Apple-Rural''.。Where will this Apple “cross the ocean” and end up?、If possible, I would like to see this next year as well.。It looks like we've set sail for now.。

Do you use expressions “like” “splashes of water” or not?、What would you do if you did?、So I neglected it for almost a month.。This picture is the best、It's a matter of expression.、surely。To begin with, it doesn't look like water splashes at all (although it was meant to represent water splashes).。However,、When realistically expressing water splashes、(I'll skip the explanation, but the expression itself is disgusting)。Not limited to paintings、For every “expression”、We also need ``consistency'' that is connected in ways that are invisible, like ``basso continuo.''。But、Maybe it's too simple。

It sounds like I'm making excuses, so I'll leave it at that.、While I was drawing、Sometimes I had the illusion of ``Popeye holding a cornpipe'' (I'm sure there are many people who don't know what ``Popeye'' is).、I will omit the explanation as it is too long)。It must be reminiscent of the sea.。
Come to think of it, I haven't seen the ocean for a while.、I haven't seen any seagulls with sly faces either.。Going to see the ocean by car or train isn't that difficult.、In other words, is it a matter of action? Or you no longer feel the need、A question of sensitivity? oh dear、Anyway、The sea is nice, isn't it?、Even if it's a rainy day。
