Study for “Blue Forest Road” Watercolor

Probably failed as a composition assignment。The atmosphere on the right and left sides of the screen is clearly separated in the middle.。usually choose one or the other、one will match it。That way it won't confuse the viewer.。

In this case, I deliberately chose to fail.。I don't care if it actually happened or not、I felt this was more “natural”。The composition according to the theory is definitely fixed, but、Not interesting。This one is more surprising、That probably makes it less formal.、Finally, I've come to understand the "taste of coffee"。

Because it's a dirt forest road、As cars pass by, the unevenness gets deeper and deeper.。throw crushed stones into it。The whiteness of the stone appears blue in the shadow of the trees because of the summer sunlight.。I tried to emphasize that blue。
There is one more attempt.。This time I actively tried using “white”。Based on the results, it's easy to draw。Outlining and masking require time and technique.。That point、Easy to draw using white。Apparently, the questioner thinks that "the concrete result of sketching" brings fun.、That much、I end up drawing too much。Also、Just using white makes the expression look like an oil painting.。As you can see。

“Vivid Green” Watercolor + Acrylic

Even on cloudy days, the number of days approaching 30℃ is increasing.。I feel even more reluctant to go out.。The summer heat is painful、I don't hate it at all。Even though I'm complaining about the heat、The reason I can work better in the summer may be because I can wear light clothing.。My arm is pulled by the sleeve、I just don't feel like I'm being wrapped up in thick fabric.、It feels a lot fresher。

The draft is watercolor。The rest was mostly painted using only acrylic paints and a painting knife.。The building in the back has been extended upwards by about 1.5 times.、The composition might have been better if the sky was made smaller.。Fortunately, you can't draw in detail with a knife.、the argument becomes clear。Such claims etc.、But no one can hear it。

"Casablanca" watercolor

If you learn a little bit about so-called "Western paintings"、You may be surprised to find that pictures of ``lilies'' appear one after another.。The image of what is generally called Western European painting is oil painting (from the 14th century).、Many people know that the main path was "Christian paintings"。There are lilies、Appears as a symbol of "purity" and "nobility"。The most common scene is the one in which the Archangel Gabriel announces to the Virgin Mary that she is pregnant.。

“Eh~、Why am I pregnant? ! How do you draw Maria's surprised face?、Apparently it was a place for painters to show off their skills.。By the way, Leonardo da Vinci also painted this scene.、Leonardo's Maria says, ``I knew it.、That kind of thing.”。"What are you going to do with that?"、It depicts a majestic statue of Mary ``looking from above'' in front of a kneeling archangel.。
Is it because Jesus is born? Jesus。father? is supposed to be John the blacksmith.、This is from a time when there was no DNA testing.、There is a reason for the existence of “lily flowers”。
By the way、"already、Did you find out? ''s perplexed Maria and、It's fun to see a variety of expressions, including the opening of Maria.、The painters of the time may also have enjoyed delusions.。If you are interested,、Let's study (surprisingly straightforward) Western painting.。

unintentionally、I flaunted all my knowledge without any context.、The lily that Gabriel is holding in his hand、Even though it is the same white lily, it is not "Casablanca"。I can tell from the name that Casablanca is a foreign species.、There are mountain lilies in Japan too.、It is said that there are about 15 types of native species, such as the squash lily (from Wikipedia)。
