What does "peace through power" mean?

"Study of figures" watercolor (the photo has nothing to do with the main text)

What does "peace through power" mean? How is it different from "eat the weakest" and "military suppression"? This seems to be a little different from the term "balance of power" used during the Cold War.。

Trump started talking? This word is、If there is no one who can stand against one strong gang、call it peace、I feel that means。In other words, I want to be a "dictator"、I guess he's saying that。hate democracy、I love Putin and Kim Jong Un、Rather, I think it's because he's such a role model that I respect him.。

(Unsurprisingly) Is it just the media that is stupid?、It seems that even Zelenskiy has recently started using the phrase "peace through strength."。Does that mean there is peace if Russia and Ukraine are evenly matched militarily? It's true that missiles fly every day.、Although I can say that it is better than the situation where someone dies in the flames of war every day.。

Trump wants to be a dictator、Of course, MAGA people must also know that he wants to be like that (I don't know what kind of brain structure he had in which he derided Zelensky as a "dictator").。But it seems their interests don't go that far.。He says he's watching to see if Trump is a "real god."。If God、Whatever you do, it's what you want。It seems that it is more wrong for humans to criticize on a human level.。``God'' for these Americans seems completely incomprehensible to me.。

listen carefully

"Olga：Gray Adventure” watercolor

My hearing has become quite distant recently.。I finally went to the otorhinolaryngologist.。"Your ears are clogged with wax."。on second thoughts。I got into the habit of pushing it in with a cotton swab.。Let's not keep cotton swabs nearby.。

Also, do a hearing test.、I also tried out hearing aids.。It sure sounds good、Even the noise。I can hear well、Does that mean we live in this kind of noise?、I felt that, but it was only for a moment。The human brain is well-developed.、Shut down quickly if you think it's unnecessary、quickly get used to the noise、I can't hear anymore。So you can concentrate on what's in front of you。

dawn、Just a few moments of awakening、I sometimes hear my own voice (I think)。body voice、brain voice。They are not physical sounds that can be heard with the ear.。Apparently, the questioner thinks that "the concrete result of sketching" brings fun.、For some reason I can't hear it unless I listen carefully。

Apply grisaille

"Autumn (grisaille study)" watercolor

Try drawing a backlit figure in grisaille。What is grisaille?、One of the classic oil painting techniques、First, I drew it in black and white to give it a three-dimensional effect.、Then use transparent paint、How to draw by layering on top of the previous shading。Basically, it is a technique that takes advantage of the properties of oil painting.、Even if I try to apply it to watercolor、There are some things that are impossible in principle.。(For details on Grisaille, see this blog on August 15th.、22Please see the day)

In watercolor grisaille (I'm not sure if I can call it that)、On the other hand, it can be said that it is a drawing method that is difficult to fail.、Can be changed midway、More difficult than the normal drawing method。And、To start drawing in gray first、Lightly unique to watercolor、Losing the ever-changing world of color、It becomes a technique that uses the basic handicap as a starting point.。Commonly used cheap paper is difficult to use.。

But、those are technical issues、This is not a problem as a painting.。In painting, you don't care about materials or techniques.、All that matters is what kind of mental image it gives to the viewer or artist.。

Paintings are something to look at, but、Before we know it, we have begun to ``read'' paintings.。If you have prior knowledge、I guess it's because I feel like I can "understand paintings more deeply."。
The historical meaning of what is depicted、Even if you don't know anything about the technique、People say, ``This color is beautiful'' or ``It's amazing how clear the line is.''、How to feel rather than how to see、I think you should value it more。When you bite into an apple with the skin on、I don't want to lose the moment when I feel my teeth breaking through the skin and the juice dripping.、Because I think。
