An "object" called "original"

clematis bloomingpen、is 15 years since the Great East Japan Earthquake

I bought two pots of clematis as a motif.。bloomed every year、large flower、A velvety blue clematis、For some reason he doesn't show up this year。While walking, I sometimes catch glimpses of clematis elsewhere.、I feel like the one we had at home was the best.、quite disappointing。

Last 2-3 years、I've been spending a lot of time on CG sketches and video production.、The number of works that remain in our possession as physical objects has decreased considerably.。Even CG is definitely a work.、From the feeling that I have been drawing on canvas and sketchbooks even though I have been treated as a nuisance for many years,、Somehow (no、I feel like it's quite unsatisfactory。
There's nothing special about it intuitively just because it's drawn on paper.。But、There is definitely one here、There is something like a sense of security。It's easy though、For now, does it feel like an "original"?。Even with CG、Although it is possible to create “original” works such as NFTs,、I still somehow rely on the equation that hand-drawn = original (even if the meaning has changed over time)。Is it just a generation gap?。

if、If the equation "hand-drawn = original" remains unchanged、From the unchanging path that we have followed through many decades of struggle,、I guess I'm a little separated。At this age、I've only just taken a step into the world of CG.、At that time, I intuitively realized that this equation would no longer make sense.、I have not forgotten that I had a small determination to go astray.。

Original hand-drawn items too、Original by CG too、socially anyway、For individual creators, it may not actually be that different.。Even so、Looking at the reality that modern paintings still cost hundreds of millions of yen,、Original = exclusive、I feel like I can see firsthand the strength of the equation of human material desire.。

About art materials and technique skills

The painting medium used here is oil paint.、watercolors etc.、paper、Drawing materials such as canvas。If you look at YouTube etc., you will see many examples of works that make full use of advanced techniques that look like professionals.。I imagine that there are many people who are studying hard after seeing this.。I myself am one of them.。

Increased knowledge about art materials and techniques、If you can master it, your freedom of expression will certainly increase.、You will be able to create eye-catching points.。In competitions, the judges themselves are professional artists.、There is a tendency to seek a high technical level.、Through the selected works, the audience's consciousness will follow the aesthetic sense of the judges.。Of course, the major significance of exhibitions is the function of ``enlightenment.''、That's not a good thing。

But、Except for people who want to become professionals.、For those who want to enjoy painting、It is better not to become too specialized in painting materials and techniques.、The idea seems to be spreading in my mind.。Knowledge、Improvements in technology can't be a bad thing, but、、That's one way to look at it、directionality、It's different from that、You have a way of looking at things, right? and。one art supply、It takes a lot of effort to become an expert in one technique.。In the process, you gain knowledge、I also know that there are many opportunities to learn something other than just technology.。Still、、、、Knowledge learned、skill is、On the other hand, the power to limit oneself、As a force that hardens imagination.、Sometimes it can also work negatively、That means、It might be better to keep it in the back of your mind for a while.、I think so.。

In order to enjoy drawing, it's better to be a little bad at it.、While whispering something like that、I teach people painting techniques、I will also give you advice on how to become better.。But、I don't necessarily think it's a contradiction。The reason is、Minimal knowledge required to draw a picture、If you can't master it、This is because it is difficult to experience more than that.。Traveling alone abroad gives you a lot of experience.、This requires a minimum level of knowledge and language skills.。That's why、Studying to the level of becoming a travel guide or language expert is a different story.。

But ok、I became an expert、There is no doubt that there is a higher (deeper) pleasure.、To say that people who are bad at it can enjoy it、Maybe it's the logic of someone who can't do it (like me) who is reluctant to lose.。
