The "Blue Seagull Society Painting Exhibition" started yesterday (20th, 16th):00to)。When loading the work onto the car for transport、I noticed it for the first time。“That’s it!、It’s not finished.”。

When I think back on it (the exhibited work was ``already finished in my head'')、Another work in front of me、I feel like I'm about to fall into the abyss、Trying to save it somehow、I was in the ICU for several days and was working hard.。

This is a picture that made me feel like I was going to fall into the abyss.。I tried everything but、It may have already fallen。Somehow、It looks like a hellscape。I added “Blue”、Because I was feeling so blue。worthless treatment、I feel like a doctor looking down on a dying patient.。

I was looking at it with disappointment、It's starting to look like a pathetic "self-portrait" to me.。1950The figure of an old-fashioned robot from the 2000s、It's a self-portrait with a crazy wind-up "brain" on it.。“No matter what I draw、I always keep in mind that “all of them are self-portraits.”、In that sense、This cannot exist anywhere other than my painting.、I'm starting to think。not very fun、The way of life and the expression of it are hugs。But、Maybe I should try drawing another one for now. The picture itself seems to say so.。"How naked you can be is the difference between authenticity and authenticity."、Was it someone's words?、I can't remember if it was my own thoughts.、More than drawing a picture like this、Maybe I'll be part of the Gagets family (for a while)...。

To be exact, “Blue Seagull Society/Painting Exhibition”。Starts the day after tomorrow, September 15th (Tuesday)。Even at a seagull-themed meeting、There isn't even a picture of a seagull.。This is an exhibition of a painting class called "Blue Seagull Society"。What is the name of the classroom?、Named after our blog。

This year is the 7th time。It may be an inappropriate word, but、Just look at age、Art exhibitions for elderly people (excluding school-related and competitions)、Exhibitions throughout Japan、In that sense, they became similar)。What has “become” is、More than time can't be stopped、In a sense it can't be helped。But、Little by little every year、I'm glad that the level is rising。

It's a little miso、That is proof that each member is sincerely facing the painting.、It is also the result of challenging each issue.、It is a sport that is firmly connected to the essence of current sports.。of course、I'm not a professional、There are also physical problems、Asking the world about your work、It's not like you're breathing heavily.。But、just a drawing、Don't make fun of it and think it's just a play to prevent blurring.。In recent works、This is because I have started to see things that involve essential pursuits.。

The world of paintings is deep。The world that can be drawn simply with professional technique is only a part of it.、As long as it's fun, that's fine、Hedonistic? The world is also a part of it.。in any case、what we are doing、big、just a part of the deep world、Although many things are unknown、Surprisingly right next door、can't see the bottom、I saw the entrance wide open like a deep cliff.、Now it feels like the wind。I can understand the picture、This does not mean that the explanations of critics and writers can be understood in words.、Actually like that、It means more to me that I can feel the artist's breath on my skin.。And、their pictures、Little by little, I've been able to whisper things like that.、even more happy for me。

white thing、drawing black things、Feels like a bit of a challenge。"White things" are expressed by darkening the surroundings.、“Whiteness of whiteness” is、Accurately measure the order of darkness between the main body and the surrounding area.、Must be expressed in that order。Moreover,、Not stepless、Summarize into 5-6 steps、Operations such as rounding are also required.。

Same goes for the black ones、If you just paint it flat and black, it will just become a “hole”.。By subtly depicting changes in brightness and darkness within the black、Expressing the texture of black objects。On paper, the difference between "black" and "darkness" is、The criterion is whether there is a material feel or not.。A camera-like eye that discerns light and darkness、Other than techniques to distinguish it、There is nothing that supports “black things” as objects.。And yet、Even if you can draw well, the gradation is rough at best.、It just looks like a photo、With its sparkling gorgeousness and rich taste of color,、almost unrelated white and black。However, for the artist、This stoic mania、It's strange because sometimes I want to taste it just like I remember it.。

Tempera or Aquila、"Apple" in oil and green apple in watercolor、Between last November and this March、I drew about 20 pictures from No. 4 to No. 120.。I don't think there's enough production.。“Apple” in tempera and oil is painted in the head.。Watercolor “apples” are drawn with the eye.。Too much time is spent on the “head”。Is this the right relationship between the head and eyes, or is it just a hug?、I'm not sure myself at the moment。

In the sketch above, the green apple is the dummy (tentative) protagonist.、The role of the eye catcher。The real star is the black liquor bottle (center of the screen)、maximum contrast)。Even though it's the main character、My hobby is cutting off the top.。I'm thinking of making a play (pantomime).。
