I drew a model for the first time in a while。I haven't done it for a while、I practiced a little bit the day before.。
The way you draw doesn't change that much just because you practice.、It is necessary to get used to following the flow of the line.。I have to do it for a while、Eyes freeze in certain areas。A line must flow from top to bottom to some extent.、Each part bumps into each other、Something that does not look like a human body at all。
Today is setsubun。It's been a while since a model came to visit me.、painted a portrait。The people in the classroom also seemed to be out of sorts because it had been a while.。me a few days ago、I've been practicing a bit、I was able to get the shape for now.。I draw with the hope that one day it will become a work of art.。
Here are some points、Adding touches with acrylic paint to unfinished watercolor drawings。If you hit the right spot, watercolor can be abbreviated.、It's a cool contrast to the carefully painted oil paintings.、I try to push hard, but there are many cases where nothing happens after that.。In that respect, the chance of failure with watercolor is much higher than with oil.。Just to the last、In my case。
At such times、It is very convenient to add on with acrylic.。Acrylic paint is a paint that allows you to do various tricks more easily than watercolor.。One of these days、Layering oil paint on top of acrylic paint、I'm thinking of creating a watercolor + oil painting.。Oil painting on paper is possible if you put acrylic paint in between.、I think I can deepen my expression even further.。
Tomorrow is the first day of spring。It seems like new hope will emerge。
I went to see the “Koji Saibo Exhibition (Late Period)” for which I had received an invitation ticket.、I went to the "Mori no Art Museum" in Otakanomori, Nagareyama City, Chiba Prefecture.。I have already introduced Mr. Nishibo's other solo exhibition (article on October 3, 2025).、There are also some of his earliest works here.、I was also interested。The exhibition period is until December 21, 2025。
It's sunny again this morning。My lower back has been feeling better since yesterday.、It was about a 20 minute walk from the station.、I went out with the intention of walking as well.。20More than a year ago, I was invited by members of the Otaka Forest Preservation Activities.、I have only been to Otaka no Mori once.。Since then, the surrounding area has been rapidly developed.、It had become a “modern city” with large buildings.。It seems that the bus stop that marks the turn to the museum has been moved.、I went too far (good for walking)。
The first gallery I visited was、This year marks the 10th anniversary, so the walls were still clean.。On the edge of the forest (the adjacent one is called ``Oguro no Mori'')、(Forest with a slightly confusing name)、It's small but、It's a really nice space。The environment is good, so you can take a deep breath and look at the paintings.。The admission fee is 600 yen.、Comes with coffee and small snacks、I think it's quite a good deal。
Mr. Saibo's work is a pleasant realistic painting.。I'm from Noto.、He still lives in Noto and continues to work energetically.。I think he is a writer who will continue to be more active in the future.。
