return to yourself

"Model" Watercolor F10

Finally December。I took a break from the painting I was working on for a while.。1When a week goes by、I feel as if my painting nerves have been cut off.。All day long I just stare at the half-finished picture in a daze.、I can't add even a single line。

Eventually, my senses began to return little by little.、The next day or so, ``myself'' finally comes home.。

In the world of painting, it is difficult to establish ``this is my style.''、Once you establish a style, you can say, “This is me!” and be yourself.、The world recognizes that too、will be recognized、It seems。All writers desperately search for their own style.、imitate、Build and destroy、create your own style、The world praises that effort.、The story is、Seems to be。

It is true that a style cannot be established overnight.。all the attempts of a painter、It is packed with all kinds of sensibilities and painting ideas that have been cultivated over a long period of time.。that's why、Establishing a style finally brings the tip of the iceberg to the surface.、That's why、Still worthy of praise。

But on the other hand、Many people think that a painter's style is like a company logo (I'm not sure if it's fair to compare them).。A logo is essentially a brand.、is a symbol。What matters is the person who created it and the content of the product.、The logo itself has no meaning。

Logos and brands are respected、This is because we have a proven track record of ensuring quality in business.。Words that tarnish a brand、That track record means releasing products that make quality assurance questionable.。In other words、Brand and content must always match。it is、It's not just about continuing to make things of the same level.、On the other hand, it is also about constantly evolving and deepening.。This is because the social environment changes.。

that's why、When a painter says, "This is my style" (even though he's not supposed to say that)、It can't just be the meaning of "art style" seen from the outside.。What is “my style”?、constantly changing、and unmoved、I guess that means。And that's probably、I'm sure the content will be quite different from the image that the general public has of the word "style".。

to announce

From Norihisa Saito solo exhibition

I saw Norihisa Saito's solo exhibition at Kawagoe Gallery Unicon.。It was a very good solo exhibition.。I don't know if the work is good or not.、At least the author and the work match.、His personality is clearly reflected in his work.、In the sense that these are my values、I thought it was a good solo exhibition.。

in exchange for that、The work I presented in Ginza, Tokyo was just a shallow idea.、Sloppy、looks flimsy。And、It was definitely an idea、shallow bottom、In a sloppy way、I am the one who is shallow.。In that sense, I agree with my words and deeds.、Nothing can be done if the words and deeds of the wrong person match.。

I recently、I'm starting to lose the meaning of announcing。Probably from now on、Even if your hands no longer work (even if it becomes a computer)、no matter what others think of it、I will continue to draw pictures。More fun than drawing、Because I don't think it's meant to be in this world。But、Why are you announcing it?、The answer to this question has become less clear.。I no longer think about wanting to be appreciated by others.。More than that、I don't intend to show it to anyone、I feel a strong desire to return to the origin of my mindless drawings.。
