Recall

 

Kanda ni female ra イ Church watercolor 2010-12

While redoing tempera、I suddenly remembered。Rubens, the master of oil painting, painted a chalk base (zinc white with glue).。water absorbent)、Start with egg medium and grassi、In other words, most of the sketches are done using a mixed technique of tempera.、That was then finished with oil painting.。Rubens' paintings are better than other painters of his time.、For example, even if it is black, it is one step deeper.、The blacks of other artists are so tight that they look gray.。The difference seems to be this egg medium and a layer of transparent oil (this is called grassi).、It was said that there seemed to be a secret in the proper use of water and oil.。

Differences from sensuous art materials like watercolor、Oil painting is a kind of chemical、The empirical aspect is much larger.。If you understand the nature of the art materials and use them,、Rubens proves that it can achieve the desired effect.。But、On the other hand, there are ways to use it that are contrary to that.、In the end, there are many paintings that are the key to success.。I wonder if it would be better to say that it is a picture that succeeds with determination.。I don't think you can draw a decent picture with just your spirit.。Apparently, the questioner thinks that "the concrete result of sketching" brings fun.、Isn't it true that if there is no spirit, the painting will not come alive? More than 20 years ago、I remember thinking about that.。

It had been raining intermittently since the morning due to the influence of powerful typhoon No. 6 (the first strong typhoon in a while), but it has stopped now.、A cool breeze has come in (landslide warnings have started to be issued in Saitama Prefecture as well)。It looks like a typhoon will come tomorrow。  2011/7/20 1:15am

テンペラをもう一度やり直し

栃木蔵の街(こうらい橋) ペン  2011

I saw Kazuo Sakatani's solo exhibition at Gallery Unicon in Kawagoe.。It was a very wonderful solo exhibition。I have seen Mr. Sakatani's solo exhibitions several times.、Because the venue is large、This spacious masterpiece is very worth seeing.。There were some questions about the work, though.、Hear from the artist in front of the work、Being able to see past works almost solved that problem.。Above all, there is no wavering in the writer's policy.、I was impressed by its clear position.。It's been a long time since I learned a good lesson。31until the day。

Recently I've been redoing tempera for the first time in a few years.。I haven't drawn tempera in recent years, but、I didn't originally abandon tempera.、Matiere and、In consideration of environmental issues、acrylic、For the sake of finding compatibility with Akira、This was because I was researching acrylic and other art materials.。We have some progress in that direction.。今度はそれらの総合を目指して再びテンペラに戻ってきたというわけだ

Even so, the gap of several years is terrible.。I can't grasp the art materials at all.。20年以上やってきたのにコロッと完全忘却している感じがあって、confused。Still, I want to manage to complete a masterpiece by the end of the year.。It's still hot。My physical strength and eyesight are both declining.、somehow complete the research、I wish I could be treated more freely than I am now.。

 

モヤモヤのこと

人形  F4  水彩  2011

The group exhibition in Ginza after a long time has ended.。It’s been a year。I haven't published much lately.。The reality is that it is no longer possible to make an announcement.。It's even closer to the truth that I can't draw anymore。

I feel like there are many reasons why I can't draw anymore.、The most important thing is that I changed the motif and the painting materials all at once.。Even if I change the motif、I personally don't think so.、そこにたどり着いたのだと思っているが、In people's eyes,、また換えた」とかんじられるらしいが、in my case、同じモチーフがある期間を措いて繰り返し現れてくるこれは意識してやるのではなく結果的にそうなのだ。But、Did you change it again?、いかにも一回限りの思いつきだと言われているようで案外につらい

モチーフは画家にとって極めて重要だ。It's not enough to just draw a picture、It is also an expression of thought、worthy of expressing it、Must be intuitively appropriate。in my case、The motif is appropriate、Expressively, it doesn't feel right at all。I need to get used to it more、There seems to be a problem with the configuration method.、including other issues、I'm having trouble resolving that issue.。

I can't draw、The reason why I can't make an announcement is because of the unresolved issues.。I have a hunch that if I can foresee that to a certain extent, I'll be able to move forward at least 10 steps.、It's been several years since I still had a hunch.。
