It has been over ten years since I started learning haiku.。Raise the temperature a little for a while、With a collection of poems by haiku poets in hand、There was a time when I was self-centered and devised various ideas.。Maybe it's because I'm busy、It feels like the fever has cooled down recently.、is。

Many haiku lovers post their poems in the haiku sections of media outlets such as NHK and major newspapers.、Buy a magazine that summarizes them every month、I joined a so-called haiku society.、Improve your skills at haiku gatherings, etc.。As for joining the society, I have a bit of a desire to join.、The origin and lineage of some societies、I have researched haiku style etc.。In the end, I don't do any of those things.、It is "a small convention in the world of haiku"、It doesn't seem to fit my personality or aspirations.、That's all there is to it。(*For example, I think there is some disagreement as to whether Kaneko Kabuta's haiku world is "small" or not.)

What are the conventions in the world of haiku?、I have always felt that it is important not to cause trouble (not to break the harmony).。When we think of flowers, we mean cherry blossoms.、If it's cherry blossoms, it's neat.、It's gorgeously decided、The ephemerality of dying、beauty、Converging words into a fixed image of cleanliness。Haiku is the skill of combining words in the process of convergence.、In other words, it's a very technical game.、The dimensions of the goal frame have been determined exactly.、It's a word game。17Almost 5 of the characters are consumed by "season words"、Only 12 characters left。In order to draw an image (within the promised range) using these 12 characters, we have no choice but to ``paste'' the ``as-is''.。Seasonal words act as strong adhesives for “pasting”、Haiku is created by leaning against this adhesive.。

In one word、I'm getting tired of this "cooperative game"。The world of painting is not a game。Always be aware of the difference between yourself and others、You have to muster up the courage and pull yourself out in front of others (the world).、It's a world that doesn't allow you to escape.。There are no promises whatsoever。techniques etc.、It's just one element there、sometimes even a hindrance。

Empathy is the lifeblood of haiku.、It can be said that。All art other than haiku、In fact, it cannot exist without empathy.、That is not to say that we are not preconditionally seeking empathy.。But、What about haiku that doesn't seek sympathy?。Although it may not be called haiku anymore.、Is it possible that it exists as a short poem-type tweet?。for me、Haiku is becoming something like that.。

The person who became my model is currently a 4th year university student.。4Become a member of society in the true sense from the moon。After finding a job、While preparing before joining the company and studying for the qualifications required after joining the company.、I spend each day with a little bit of anxiety and a lot of hope (though I didn't say so).、He told me。

I think, "It's beautiful."。Of course the face、The very fact that we are living in this very moment with youth and hope、I think it's beautiful。drawing a picture is、There is joy in always encountering this beauty.、It also means。Let me tell you this early so there is no misunderstanding.、This joy also comes from facing "youth" directly.、To put it more frankly, “Now、Living in this moment.”、And it lies in touching that “sense of fulfillment.”。
It's not limited to young people.、Not limited to humans。whether it's an animal or a plant、The contentment of being alive in this moment is the essence of being alive (in my own sense)、Even if it is a stone, the ``meaning of being right now'' is not much different.)。And、(the amount of energy) that it naturally radiates outward、when you touch it、I feel that time and space are “beautiful.”。That (drawing) gives me the power to change myself too.、I think that's the content of "what I want to draw"。by drawing、I feel like I too am being reborn.。

Can you feel that in this sketch?。While drawing、Shape and light and dark without care、I think I'm just chasing the colors、My five senses (unconscious) are probably trying to show other things on the screen as well.、to expect without permission。next year、Or in a few years、She doesn't even know what she's actually doing right now.。Getting a job is just the first step、have already taken the step。She decides the "second step" herself.。Please、Everyone takes a step for themselves、I just hope that you take the second step firmly.。

Lately, I've been practicing drawing on my computer.、I was neglecting to draw with actual materials.。It’s been a while since I drew with real wood.、After all, I feel a different person than when I'm at the computer.。from paper、from pencil、from water、From the brush、I can feel the response that I don't have on a computer.。"That touch、It is said that it can already be achieved with a computer.、Fortunately or unfortunately、Currently, I need two dimensions: a computer and real materials.、I can't enjoy the goodness of each.。It's up to me whether I think this is an inconvenience or an option.。

What kind of pictures can you draw with a computer? - Pictures like this can be drawn。take a photo、Erase the background to some extent、watercolor on it、oil painting、Draw with apps such as Conte。It doesn't even smell.、Don't get your hands dirty。Even if it fails, you can restore it immediately。Copy as many copies as you like、You can also do something different for only part of it.。

take a photo and print it、cut it out and paste it。Or post a photo、How can I erase the background?。Apply a gesso base on top of that.、is 15 years since the Great East Japan Earthquake、Paint further with oil paint etc.。Run to the nearby convenience store、I gasp and grab some copies.。With the smell of turpentine、While pretending not to notice that my family's eyes gradually became colder,、Secretly throw failed projects into the trash。Each one has a cost - that's how we've been able to do it without using a computer.。

Is it boring to draw pictures on a computer?、In the end it will come down to preference。I personally use actual materials.、Drawing on a computer is also fun.。However、It is true that computers are fundamentally different from comparing watercolors and oil paintings.。I can't say it well at the moment, but。Intuitively、Just because I used a computer、Your preference for colors and lines and your perspective on motifs will not change.。But、Something bigger is different。To put it simply,、The possibilities of what can be done are different、I guess it's like that。

Even if you are a young person、I can't even draw on a computer anymore、What kind of training did you have so far...someone told me?、I thought about it a lot myself.。Don't stop thinking about it、It came little by little。Challenge sounds good, but、Sometimes I feel a sense of unfathomable fear ahead.。But I have no choice but to do it、now or never、I think。
