Kinu Autumn/Kegon Falls

"Kegon Falls and Kegon Falls" Watercolor F4、Cotton paper

Watercolor for the blog that was supposed to be posted yesterday。I started writing a blog just before 11pm、I'm somehow sleepy、I type the keyboard wrongly、I can't concentrate on my thoughts、I fell asleep without finishing。

The sketch is、It's been a while ago、When the child is still in elementary school、This is a photo taken from when I took her to Nikko.。The waterfall falls from the top right towards the bottom center。The river trembles from above around the waterfall entrance、It falls from the black rock。At first glance it looks like it's falling from left to right、it's not。

The autumn leaves can be seen everywhere、I thought it was surprisingly difficult to draw。When the whole mountain is autumnal、If you're overly dabbing, you'll probably just paint red or yellow.。The autumn leaves in the foreground and the autumn leaves in the trees farther back are the same color, so the distance is light.、Each tree and leaves are small、One by one、Because I can't draw one at a time。

Here, I'll give up on drawing different trees and leaves.、A subtle difference in brightness (the whiteness of the paper is preserved in the foreground.、The back is filled with more overlap between green and red.、Visual density (small and crowded in the distance、The front is wide and big)、I tried to express the space、What do you think?。
Not just autumn、Lately I've become so lazy to go anywhere。The cold and the sketches、I like it but、It's a hassle to think about tools and anything。But、As much as possible、I want to go where I can breathe delicious air。

Sunset at the housing complex (prototype)

"Sunset at the Danchi" prototype - this picture winks、It looks good

Group exhibition in Ginza、"Living in the Climate - 10th Exhibition" ended yesterday (2023.10.28)。

This group exhibition will continue after this、I myself have been working on this 10 exhibition.、I decided to leave (as already announced)。It depends on your own way of thinking、It was not like there was any dissatisfaction with the exhibition or the members.。Rather、10Have a good study year after year、There's nothing but gratitude。

A prototype of "Sunset"。(The day before yesterday、(Although it's become more boring than the incomplete state) at this stage too、There have been many technical issues。That should be solved in the next prototype、So、There will be another new challenge。If we repeat this, there's nothing to say if it brings fruit into one work.、It's not always easy to understand paths to create a work。Rather、It's like the beginning of a painting journey.。

Pomegranate

Pomegranate

Mr. S from the watercolor class gave me a few pomegranates.。Not for eating, but as a motif for the painting。It would have been fine for a single one、Pomegranates with branches are better。I've tried drawing about three of them anyway、I've always wanted to draw pomegranates this year、I'm not very satisfied。

This sketch is purposely cheap、I draw with a slightly fluttering nylon brush。Because I wanted to give it a rough look。Of course, it's good to use high-class brushes、There is also a downside that it is too beautifully done.。Beautiful colours are good、If that is linked to a bit of roughness、I thought it would make it even more lively。

It seems that there are few areas in Japan that have a habit of eating pomegranates.。The real is small、Maybe it's because they don't like acidity either。I've never seen them sold at supermarkets.。South Asia、It is often seen in stalls in the Middle East。Processed into juice、It seems like they'll eat it as is、After all, it's several times larger than in Japan, so it's sure to be very satisfying.。

Pomegranate is apparently Pomegranate in English.。Pome is an apple。Maybe it's like an apple。The original meaning of granete is "seed."。Probably because it has a lot of seeds。However、Nowadays, many people may think that Granate is a "grenade."。After the 20th century, the war-heavy、I think this is more frequently used。Pomegranate color is Garnet、The Japanese name is garnish (color).。It's a color that's close to magenta。
