I can no longer play with pictures

“Playing with yellow leaves” Watercolor

here、During my usual walk。The yellow leaves (there were several large ginkgo trees next to them) were so beautiful.、I just took a photo。another day、in another place、A child scoops up fallen ginkgo leaves with his hands.、He threw it into the air and showered it on his head.。Mix such scenes on the screen。

As for how to draw a picture、“Pointillist style” is not generally recommended.。What is “stippling”?、At first glance、Even if it takes time、Seems technically simple。But when I try it、Since it is a painting、Of course it's not as simple as it first appears。
but、If you want to express the atmosphere of this pile of fallen leaves,、I felt that this way of drawing would be the easiest and closest to the feeling of skin.。

My mind remains like that of a drawing boy、Only my body has become an adult、In the process、I think about a lot of things when I draw a picture.、Studying colors and composition、I spent years working hard on things that were like training.。But、The truth is, that kind of thing has always been a ``troublesome'' thing.。It's "drawing"、Wouldn’t it be better if it was much more “easy”? That's the feeling、It has become especially strong recently.。

Basking in the autumn sun、I thought it would feel good to be among these fallen leaves.、That's all there is to it、How should I draw it?、Isn't it okay to draw while imagining how you would feel the same way? That's what I think、For some reason, it's already gone far away.。

Busy and quiet

"Christmas is approaching" watercolor

It's getting cold, isn't it?。Even in Kanto, which is warmer than Hokkaido and Tohoku,、Apparently there was light snow in Hachioji, Tokyo yesterday.。

yesterday、I bought two bottles of kerosene (18 liters)。Regarding air pollution、Viewing “fossil fuels” such as kerosene as the enemy、I know there are people who argue that we should go all electric.、I can understand the meaning of that claim.。But、2011How valuable were kerosene stoves for heating during the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake?、cooking、Was it helpful to the community?、わたしはどうしても忘れることができない

震災直後物置の奥から引っ張り出して来た石油ストーブは“停電で役に立たなくなった” 暖房専用のファンヒーターやエアコンと違い暖房だけでなく煮炊きも同時にできる “救世主” になったお湯を沸かせることの恩恵を書いたら、This article could be filled with just that.。
Preventing respiratory infections caused by dry air, etc.、I heard that ``kerosene stoves'' were also used for medical care at medium-sized hospitals.。That fire、Family members who meet face-to-face during a disaster、It must have given me a sense of peace of mind.。
but、The source of fossil fuel oil、In other words, the amount of life and death of fossilized plants (and sometimes animals) is unimaginable.。To the earth and sun that made it possible、Maybe I should be grateful。

When drawing a poinsettia、I know that I can only do what I can't do, but I'm frustrated,When drawing flowers、No matter what kind of flowers you have, you are always worried about them drying out indoors.。That said,、You can't paint if you prioritize care first.。when looking at a picture、Sometimes things like “backstage work” suddenly come to mind.。
