I guess you could say it was an idea.

Apple and a book 2021

Recently、I can no longer draw a picture just by thinking about it.。In the past, I would just apply paint and the pictures would come out on their own.。until something comes into view、Fill it up、When the paint gets thick, you may need to scrape it off.、Wash it off、waiting until something comes out。Sometimes it takes time、Images come to mind one after another、You may run out of canvases。

Sudden、Fragments of people, landscapes, still life, etc. appear clearly on the screen.。I'll grab that and start drawing.、It is impossible to imagine the goal in advance.。When things fully appear、For the first time, I thought, ``What should I do next?''、think about the goal。In some cases, the person who appears becomes smaller.、Must be moved to the right or left。anyway、I don't even know what to draw、That's a crazy way to draw it、If you ask around, there are surprisingly many people like that.。30I've been drawing like this for about 20 years.。

After the death of a famous painter、I still see explanations like, ``That's how much effort they put into it,'' pointing out the sketches and drawings that were left behind.。That's fine though、I object to it being a "lesson" that says, "It's no good not to make that kind of effort."。Unkei and Michelangelo just happened to say the same thing.。“The sculpture is already buried in the tree (stone).。I just dig it out.”。when you read it、I was surprised that I felt exactly the same way.。When applying paint、Rather than painting, dig the surface with paint.、It felt like I was cutting it down.。

I don't draw like that now.、Or rather, I can't do it anymore.。First, I think, ``Let's draw ○○.''。Then prioritize about three of those elements.。1 is so important that the picture would have no meaning without it.、3 is not necessary, but、I wonder if there is a bulge、The realistic "desire"。2 is in between。that's why、I also do drafts and sketches.。I've never done anything like that before、I almost feel like a different person.。But、The painting created on Esquise Street becomes a “dead painting”。I guess you could call it an inspiration.、I guess it was just an idea、without it、The heart of the painting doesn't start to move。I still wait for the moment when it comes down.。

Is the area by the window a fun “hell”?

My windowsill is full of flowers

The window of my studio is crowded with cacti.。They keep getting bigger and bigger even though I don't fertilize them.。Flowers bloom one after another。It probably suits the growing environment of cacti.。Or I don't know if they match well.、It looks like a small paradise。

But the sunlight is shining harshly on my windowsill、Also for pushing each other to find a place.、If you don't compete every day, you won't survive.。Many cacti that lost the battle have already disappeared.。Even if I win、If you get carried away and grow too much, you'll become the devil.(I)pulled out by、It gets thrown away。It's a merciless living hell.。

Theme of "Summer Scenes"

Summer scenery

A few days ago I posted a picture of the same composition (August 5th "1500m for the women's track and field")。Another version。At the time I thought the previous one would be better、Looking at this now, this one looks more quiet at first glance、The clarity of the aim of collision between lines and flat colors、Considering the plain size、This is even more bold、I feel that (now)。

The effect of blinding in the near future is deprived of consciousness。You have to always look for somewhere in your goal、That's all it's over。That's a bit disappointing、How to set a goal is a person's values.、It's not easy to set、It is also impossible to start with what you ultimately end up with.。But、A goal is absolutely necessary。

For me、What is the goal of the art? I still haven't set the goal。That's because、For me, the goal is beyond all productions.、Still like the light of a lighthouse from afar、Because you can only see the light from time to time。However、I'm just walking around with a sense of perspective that it's in that direction。A road appears on the way、Go up and down the hill、Sometimes I get lost in bushes with no paths。At that time、If you stand on a slightly higher position, you can see your next "goal"。Next, the goal is to "change the way you think about lines" and "think about the relationship between lines and colors."。

But、1A painting requires a certain amount of goal、Of course, there is an image of the goal in that sense.。The theme of this picture (but not limited to) is "The punching power of expression."。「優しい」「気持ちのいい」表現とは少し距離を置こうとしているもっと破壊的前衛的な表現もあるがそれは今のわたしには厳しいボクシングでいえばリング自体を破壊するような表現ではなくとりあえずリングの中で対戦する。Punching power in that sense。Jab is a "strong line"、Body blow is a "single color"、Counter punches are "unpainted"。"The technique of not painting"、The hardest for me so far。
