Recently、I can no longer draw a picture just by thinking about it.。In the past, I would just apply paint and the pictures would come out on their own.。until something comes into view、Fill it up、When the paint gets thick, you may need to scrape it off.、Wash it off、waiting until something comes out。Sometimes it takes time、Images come to mind one after another、You may run out of canvases。

Sudden、Fragments of people, landscapes, still life, etc. appear clearly on the screen.。I'll grab that and start drawing.、It is impossible to imagine the goal in advance.。When things fully appear、For the first time, I thought, ``What should I do next?''、think about the goal。In some cases, the person who appears becomes smaller.、Must be moved to the right or left。anyway、I don't even know what to draw、That's a crazy way to draw it、If you ask around, there are surprisingly many people like that.。30I've been drawing like this for about 20 years.。

After the death of a famous painter、I still see explanations like, ``That's how much effort they put into it,'' pointing out the sketches and drawings that were left behind.。That's fine though、I object to it being a "lesson" that says, "It's no good not to make that kind of effort."。Unkei and Michelangelo just happened to say the same thing.。“The sculpture is already buried in the tree (stone).。I just dig it out.”。when you read it、I was surprised that I felt exactly the same way.。When applying paint、Rather than painting, dig the surface with paint.、It felt like I was cutting it down.。

I don't draw like that now.、Or rather, I can't do it anymore.。First, I think, ``Let's draw ○○.''。Then prioritize about three of those elements.。1 is so important that the picture would have no meaning without it.、3 is not necessary, but、I wonder if there is a bulge、The realistic "desire"。2 is in between。that's why、I also do drafts and sketches.。I've never done anything like that before、I almost feel like a different person.。But、The painting created on Esquise Street becomes a “dead painting”。I guess you could call it an inspiration.、I guess it was just an idea、without it、The heart of the painting doesn't start to move。I still wait for the moment when it comes down.。

A few days ago I posted a picture of the same composition (August 5th "1500m for the women's track and field")。Another version。At the time I thought the previous one would be better、Looking at this now, this one looks more quiet at first glance、The clarity of the aim of collision between lines and flat colors、Considering the plain size、This is even more bold、I feel that (now)。

The effect of blinding in the near future is deprived of consciousness。You have to always look for somewhere in your goal、That's all it's over。That's a bit disappointing、How to set a goal is a person's values.、It's not easy to set、It is also impossible to start with what you ultimately end up with.。But、A goal is absolutely necessary。

For me、What is the goal of the art? I still haven't set the goal。That's because、For me, the goal is beyond all productions.、Still like the light of a lighthouse from afar、Because you can only see the light from time to time。However、I'm just walking around with a sense of perspective that it's in that direction。A road appears on the way、Go up and down the hill、Sometimes I get lost in bushes with no paths。At that time、If you stand on a slightly higher position, you can see your next "goal"。Next, the goal is to "change the way you think about lines" and "think about the relationship between lines and colors."。

But、1A painting requires a certain amount of goal、Of course, there is an image of the goal in that sense.。The theme of this picture (but not limited to) is "The punching power of expression."。「優しい」「気持ちのいい」表現とは少し距離を置こうとしている。もっと破壊的、前衛的な表現もあるが、それは今のわたしには厳しい。ボクシングでいえば、リング自体を破壊するような表現ではなく、とりあえずリングの中で対戦する。Punching power in that sense。Jab is a "strong line"、Body blow is a "single color"、Counter punches are "unpainted"。"The technique of not painting"、The hardest for me so far。

2020Additions to the work completed in 2017。Additions are mostly only to the outline.。Before, it was a thin line of ultramarine.。Somehow I can't accept it、After leaving it alone for almost a year, it became a problem.、Yesterday I suddenly noticed that the outline was thin.、It occurred to me that this may be connected to a lack of presence.。

I tried making it thicker with the same ultramarine, but、I felt that the effect was weak, so I took the plunge and tried mixing black.。The end of the line extends beyond the required line.、Because of the habit of casually putting down the brush again immediately after stopping the brush.。When I paint with watercolors, I sometimes use it to create a rhythm.、It can't necessarily be said that it's a bad habit, but you need to be careful.。Oh dear、It's an experimental work so I'll leave it as is.。

The paint called black is、When it is glossy, it gives a tight and deep feeling.、If there is no shine, it will look gray。In the case of watercolor, when using an acrylic board, black looks so good because of this "gloss" effect.。Here too, I tried to make only the black glossy.。The title was “Glass Apple”.、Did it feel like that?。
