Production begins

Apple-Crossing the Sea (Start of production)

6Works scheduled to be exhibited at the monthly group exhibition (No. 100)。Originally, it should have been finished a long time ago.、My butt is on fire、beginning to burn、It's starting to smoke all the way to my stomach、I finally sat up。Your butt may be completely blackened by now.。Deadline is the end of this month。

I started drawing with tempera。Egg tempera is made by using chicken eggs as glue (glue) and kneading colored powder into it.、A classic technique to fix it on the screen。If you replace the glue with glue instead of egg, it becomes a Japanese painting.。In other words, it is materially related to Japanese painting.。For the time being、I tried to draw an image in monotone。

When I started drawing, size 100 was really small.。Placing individual motifs on the screen、become really tiny。I feel like if I move a little further away, I won't be able to see it.。One of these days、As you progress to the stage of drawing details, the screen will start to feel wider.、For now, it's a free field.。There may be some changes in the image, though.、I don't have time to think about things。All you have to do is keep your momentum and draw all at once.。

At first, I tentatively titled it ``Apple-The Birth of Venus.''。A bit of a parody of Botticelli's famous work of the same name.。The shape of the waves somewhat resembles Hokusai's ``The Great Wave off Kanagawa.''。But、Until there。From then on, it becomes a tug-of-war between the demands of the screen and the author's claims.。That's the fun of drawing、Too bad I have to hurry。
*I was planning to upload the video “Drawing Cherry Blossoms (tentative title)” today, March 17th.、It is unlikely that it will be possible。sorry。I would like to correct it to “as soon as possible”.。

Blue Seagull Society Painting Exhibition、22from the day

Blue Seagull Society Painting Exhibition Guide

The Blue Seagull Society painting exhibition will be held on the 22nd.(water)starting from。Preparations for that are underway、Preparations for individual works seem to have settled down.。still、I'm the only one who's not ready at all、surely。

I am asked to see the exhibited works in advance.、There are some very interesting works。The one in the foreground is “old school” (I apologize for the inconvenience)、(I'm sorry) but I'm ambitious、I think there are a lot of youthful works.。please、I want many people to see it。

on the other hand、to yourself or your family、It's becoming more and more common for people to get sick here and there.。Appropriate for age、Although it is something that cannot be avoided、There are times when I feel like I shouldn't push myself too hard.。Even in such a situation、I'm proud that everyone has the energy to draw.。he、Their paintings depict the everyday and the extraordinary.、I feel that we are becoming one.。Drawing is not something special (although there is some pressure)、I feel like it's becoming a part of everyday life.。
“Art” is somehow only for special people.、I'm sure there are still a large number of people who think of it as something out of their reach.、Art will die if it goes like that.。Not limited to paintings、Artists have always longed for people to make art "everyday"。Even if the expression is beyond the comprehension of contemporaries,、I have continued to appeal, “I still want you to understand.”、I think it's another way of looking at art history.。Art is not about things、exists in humans。Although it is true that the work is a physical object,、the person who makes it、It cannot be discussed without considering the era and environment.。The environment is the people who support it。

At the Blue Seagull Society painting exhibition、We may not be able to expect so-called "genuine works of art."。But、In the "Blue Seagull Painting Class", we did not intentionally set that as our goal (although the challenge is quite good).、I also think that it is important that the Blue Seagull Society painting exhibition is an ``art exhibition of people who support art.''。In the difficult "painting training" so far、Experience the inside of painting、I have understood。to have that perspective。I have slowly deepened my knowledge of each expression and level.。And no matter what form it takes, it seeps into society.。It's important to be that kind of person.、I'm glad that this is happening.。

cherry blossoms

weeping cherry blossoms。I haven't been able to see it for a few years due to Corona.、Will I be able to see it this year?

The topic of cherry blossoms has begun to spread。Still, do Japanese people really like cherry blossoms and autumn leaves this much?。There will be a war in Ukraine、There will be a big earthquake in Türkiye and Syria、Even if there is corona、Trying to save money with my number、In the end, I get swept away by the topic of cherry blossoms.。Probably more than what the future holds for this country.、When、with whom、I'm sure the more important thing is where to go to see the cherry blossoms.。

As long as the cherry blossoms are blooming, this world is heaven。12Immediately after the Great East Japan Earthquake a year ago, it coincided with cherry blossom season.。Some people may say that it healed them considerably.、This seems to have made the disaster much less tragic.。Cherry blossoms for Japanese people、painful things、It makes me forget the bad things、It seems to have the power to act like a giant "indulgence".。

I said Sakura a little sarcastically.、When I see cherry blossoms, I feel excited too.。I feel like I drew pictures of cherry blossoms many times when I was a child.、I don't remember drawing properly ever since I started drawing seriously.。At most a sketch。Is it a blatant hymn to “Taihei”?、I also don't want to be seen as a cynic or something.、It was also because it felt somehow unsatisfactory as a formative element.。That point、All Japanese painters work hard to draw cherry blossoms.。Cherry blossoms are already a symbol for Japanese people.、It makes sense that this is a perfect subject for Japanese paintings, which place more emphasis on symbolism than realism.。

Let's draw cherry blossoms this year、It occurred to me。The feeling that the design is weak is that、It means that I cannot shape it.、It's not that Sakura is at fault.。I always thought that anything could be made into a picture.、Because you are claiming、I find it rather strange that I was avoiding the cherry blossoms.。
