The day I ate “Hoto”

Shosenkyo 2013

Searching for materials on computer、I found an old sketch。This is from when I went on a day trip to Shosenkyo Gorge (Kofu City, Yamanashi Prefecture) with some people from my art class.。of the same composition、There were about 4 photos, including one with just the water surface in the center.。

The composition was interesting too、Above all, my eyes were drawn to the beauty of the water surface.。after、Many bubbles on the surface of the water、A small whirlpool that flows、bright water surface、I started drawing mainly dark and deep water surfaces.。Maybe that was the reason。

Above all、I thought, "I hope you're doing well."。Until this place、I must have walked on a narrow mountain path for several minutes (I've forgotten most of it).。On the way home、I clearly remember eating the famous ``hotou udon'' at a riverside restaurant.。

If your body is healthy、You'll feel better too。I feel like that。I can't afford to lose to the coronavirus。I want to sketch outside again。

I'm pretty tired

10book rose pen

I tried drawing a rose with a pen for the first time in a while.。It took longer than I expected and、all shapes are distorted。Along the way, I thought that this would be bad.、In the end, I just moved on.。

4the night before、I had severe back pain just before going to bed.、The pain didn't go away for quite a while.。Eventually, the pain came down to my shins.、In the end, I couldn't sleep well until morning.。fortunately、I was able to walk the next morning, but、I still feel nervous。

Let alone walk、I feel like I went back to 5 years ago when there were times when I couldn't even stand straight.、pathetic。I don't do much exercise other than minimal weight training.、It's also self-inflicted、The dilemma is that exercise itself can cause back pain.。Lately, I've been sketching more and more with a pen.、それの先取りだったのかもしれないとつぜん歩けなくなる日が来るなどとは思いたくないが、prepare for it、ある程度の覚悟もしておくことが必要かもなどと寝ながら考えていた

“Living in the Climate VII” exhibition begins

「Apple-2020」    F120    Tempera, Alkyd

“Living in the Landscape VII” exhibition will be held on November 7th(soil)Until Ginza、Currently being held in a gallery style。Even though we are in the middle of the corona virus、If you are well, please come and see。

in many ways、This year is a turning point、I feel that。In terms of works over the past few years、I have been creating with an awareness of clarifying the modeling elements such as lines, surfaces, and colors.、I don't originally have the direction of purifying and pursuing just that.、This may be one of the results.。

The attitude of “pursuit” itself is also a form of “restraint.”。Remove everything other than one direction as much as possible.、This is because we have no choice but to adopt a method of stoically accumulating the results.。

In the future、I would like to reunite the several directions that I have been pursuing in a branched manner.、I'm thinking。That's not true、In fact, I was already unconsciously doing this 30 years ago.、The idea is to "consciously" reconfigure it.。Being “comprehensive” means that anything is possible.、There is also a risk that the quality will become increasingly poor.。How do we regulate that area?、Aesthetics within yourself? is the question to be asked。What will happen?。
