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.。

Since I declared that I would draw cherry blossoms,、I tried to draw it with all my might.。Apparently, the questioner thinks that "the concrete result of sketching" brings fun.、When I drew it, I thought, ``This is a failure.''。From the very beginning、I had intended to draw it much more horizontally.、It was a “failure” when I made a concentrated composition “to match the sketchbook”。

I don't like to reveal my failures、why did it fail、where is the failure、How can I fix it and lead to the next step?、For the artist, it is better than a “successful” painting.、sometimes it's important。

First, look at this picture objectively.。Then, ① important motifs are too concentrated.、The first thing you'll feel is。Too many elements are packed into a small screen.。The most common mistakes made by beginners、People with decades of experience (that's me!) are doing it.。Embarrassing! ②What's wrong is the backlit cherry blossom branch on the right.。You don't need all of it.。The backlit branch is slightly sticking out from the left side.。That's enough。Everything on the right side is “additional”。Before trying to draw the right branch、That thought crossed my mind, but I said, "Here we go!"。"why、I won't reveal the details here, but。

There are many other details that go wrong though.、I guess the starting point was that I didn't make it a relaxed landscape.。If I set it horizontally、② may have been more effective.。in conclusion：I once felt like it would be a waste if I didn't color the entire surface of my sketchbook.、It may be the root cause of all failures。“Stingy guts” is your downfall、I guess that means。Ahhh。
*The actual correction of the watercolor sketch will be carried out on the evening of Monday, March 13th.、その内容は録画しました。1週間以内に修正部分も含め、このスケッチを3月17日(金)夜にYouTubeにアップする予定です。

I'm about to start production for the Shinshunkai (June/Kasukabe) exhibition.。Even though the exhibition is held in June, the deadline for photos for the catalog is the beginning of April.、3The work must be completed within the month.。This is Skeith (idea sketch)。I think I'll go like this this year。Added CG to the work exhibited at Ginza last fall.。

Computers are really convenient。This kind of Squis also、With just a few more touches, you can create a complete image.。All that remains is to “realize” it using actual materials.。But、The idea of ​​``thinking with your hands'' is a little different from that of a computer.、No, not at all。In the first place, the path we are walking on is different.。

I see people walking from right to left across the grass from the side.。If there is a parallel path、as far as seen from the side、I can't tell which way I'm walking。As I draw, I get rid of tension from my body。Even if the direction of the face of the person walking is the same from right to left、The road is gradually slipping away。The destination is different。That's the difference between hand-drawn and CG、I always feel that、(For some reason) I'm trying to get used to CG.。I don't know if it's good or bad for me。It's probably a gamble called "intuition"。

here 2，3This is the style of this year's painting.。Unusually (for the first time?) for me, I have a fixed image.。decades ago、Various styles、Made with various materials。What I think now is、No matter what picture you draw, as long as you are there, it's fine.、This person is building his "own" snowboard "road"。Even if it is unique、Even if it's ordinary、This is just a “carefree” “evaluation” from the outside perspective.。Even if it is called “ordinary”、For me, I don't have time to worry about the label "mediocre."。
