The joy of "lines"

Lily composition pen, watercolor, etc.

I'm getting tired of "pen sketch" soon.、Some people may say。On YouTube、10When the same image (still image) continues for more than a second、I hear that viewers change the channel (because they get bored).。I don't know if it's true or not、I think it's actually close to that.。There is a word called ``momentary'' (setsunateki).、It feels like it's much shorter than that.。

Of course、10There is (probably) no one who can draw a picture in seconds.。draw a line。The next line is、The direction in which the pen moves、Draw while looking at both the lines you drew earlier.。1000Even when drawing the real line、After all, from the first one、You are looking at the 999th line before that at the same time.。
Of course, the act of drawing a line is in motion, so、It's different from looking at a still image.、10Can you hold on for only seconds? For those who can't、Not limited to pen sketches、I feel like I can't see the picture。

(Especially when it comes to sketches) I don't care who drew it.、It has become a habit to stare at a single line.。Even if "staring" is actually 1/1000 of a second、"Stay still"。During that "stillness", we are "reliving" the experience.。Oh dear、1/1000Seconds may be a bit of an exaggeration、No matter how slow you go, it doesn't take more than a second。
The eyes of people who sketch are trained in this way.、Other people will probably think it's a lie.。But、I'm sure the same thing will happen with music etc.。

“Reliving” is an abstract word.、Line speed in reality、Not just pen pressure、I stopped here and thought、I drew this with confidence、I was confused when I drew this.、What does it mean to feel that。Speaking of cooking、Just delicious、Not only is it delicious、“Are you using this material in this way?、That's amazing! ” or “What is the secret ingredient used in this dish?”、hey。
One line in 10 seconds、10Please stare at me for a minute.。You'll see things you couldn't see before。see picture、There is such a discovery.。

Morning sketch

                                                                                          Using PM paper
"The buds are opening" - Gerbera is down

When I wake up、The buds that were about to open until yesterday have completely opened.。change the water、While I'm touching it、The single flower that had been blooming until now fell to the floor with a thud.。Can you draw this story?。I only used it a few times for trial drawings.、I rediscovered "PM paper" in the case, which had been kept away since then.、I tried using it。

I was told, ``It's not good to bring a story into a picture.''。I now understand that my drawings had a strong tendency to be like that (and apparently still do).、I think I understand why it was said to be wrong.。On top of that、I want to bring the story back、I started thinking。

Why? For example, people don't read texts;、Because it's normal to "read the gaps" in sentences.。“Delicious curry” is still a matter of ingredients, but、I believe that the question "Why is this person's curry so delicious?" is a field of art.。

Enjoy "pen sketches"

Composition with five human stands

The enjoyment of drawing varies from person to person.。If so、There are many different ways to enjoy it.。As announced the other day、"The 11th Blue Seagull Society Painting Exhibition" has just ended.。with the people who came to see me、Being able to share your work at the venue、This is one of the most enjoyable things for presenters.。``That's a nice picture'' ``It makes me feel better''、Please give a word of praise to the author for his hard work.、please。Really everyone、Physical strength/spirit、You're doing it at the last minute.。

suddenly、When we turn our attention to the “world”、not announced anywhere、Don't show it to anyone、Some people expand their world to the world of imagination alone.、There aren't many, but there seems to be a certain number.。French writer Balzac's "unknown masterpiece"、This is a novel about such a person.、Most recently, he has become internationally famous as an outsider writer.、Henry Darger seems to be such a person (he has already been introduced on this blog).。
Even though Darger was “highly intelligent”、In "Crazy"、Forced to live at the economic bottom of America as a silent "cleaner"、Without showing it to anyone, he wrote an epic story of war between an innocent girl and the values ​​of God called ``In an Unreal Kingdom'' that ran over 15,000 pages.、300Leave behind numerous illustrations of various sizes.、He died in a very poor apartment, uncared for.。after death、Through the activities of the landlord who discovered the value of his belongings, etc.、Gradually became known around the world。The work is at the Museum of Modern Art in New York.、Stored in the Musée Ville de Paris, etc.、Now known worldwide as the author of "The Outsider"。

I have a lot to talk about、I was blown away by the outsider! recently、I have already reported that pen sketching has become fun again.、The sketch above is also in that vein.。Of course, I am also excited to see and draw concrete objects.、These ideas and sketches are also puzzle-like and fun.。And、For me (although I don't realize it)Feels different from a pencil、That tooIt is the basis of the enjoyment of pens.I feel like。
these areThis is not an e-skis for any exhibited works.。There is a possibility that I might turn it into a work someday.、Right now I'm just sketching for fun.。I'm just killing time.、The problem seems to be that I have so much fun that I end up putting off work.。
