10 days since the last blog。I tried writing about it once during the session, but、I couldn't put it all together and couldn't publish it.。Is the Chenchunkai Exhibition on July 31st safe? end。Was it because there was a big earthquake?、This year, there was a different feeling than usual that continued throughout the exhibition.。Even if there are no noticeable changes、Maybe something must have changed。

One is a change of heart。The earthquake was also a mental disaster.。what am i doing、I continue to feel a mixture of pity and regret.。Apparently, the questioner thinks that "the concrete result of sketching" brings fun.、I feel like this was happening even before the earthquake.。That there is no other choice in what I should do.。I realized that there is no time to be lost.。I understand very well、so、When I think about what to do now, I feel like I have nothing.。Was that what was going on throughout the exhibition? If so、Don't exhibitions exist just to confirm that you have nothing?。

I drank alcohol every day for the month of July.。It's rare these days to drink this much every day.。Beer 、wine、Japanese sake、Shochu and various alcohols、sometimes in large quantities、Sometimes just a little bit、Sometimes it's fun、Sometimes it's like it's an enemy。Is it because of that?、for about a week、At night, my area from the calf down was swollen.。The circumference of the fingers is also round like a pig's foot.。When I put pressure on my fingertips, the swelling appears white.、The color of the blood has completely disappeared。raise your legs、After I started moving around, the swelling went away.、I didn't stop drinking at night.。I don't want to drink, I have to drink、It felt like。

When August comes、I suddenly lost the desire to drink.。I don't know if it has anything to do with the exhibition being over.。Maybe he just drank too much and got bored.。When the Chenchunkai exhibition ended、Last year, I was thinking, ``This is what I'm going to do for my next work.''。I'm not thinking about anything this year.。However、The small unfinished drawing in front of me、I just want it to disappear from my eyes as soon as possible。

 

 

Mr. S passed away yesterday.。It was the end of a long battle with illness.。When Mr. S was in good health, his main theme was “dogs.”。I try to write this blog while posting new works as much as possible.、That's why I decided to post (my work) from over ten years ago this time.。I would like to express my condolences in a small way.。

I first met Mr. S in a university open lecture/watercolor class.。I am a teacher and a student.。I was the lecturer、I feel like I learned far more from him.。Not only is she older and has a little more life experience;、More than that, his passion for painting was far greater than mine.。That passion extends beyond everyone in the same class.、I feel like I empathize with everyone who loves painting.、some kind、I felt something like awesomeness.。Many people were influenced by her at that time.。I was also somehow moved by that passion.、I feel like I'm elated somehow、Is it advice?、Is it agitation?、I remember blurting out something that I didn't know if it was a declaration or not.。

Regularly selected for prefectural exhibitions。Because he had developed a technique that no one else could do.、That's because all the judges paid close attention to that.。``A picture like that should never be dropped,'' he said.、I didn't know you were my student.、There's a judge who told me。I was nominated for the award almost every year.、I got sick before I won the award.、I can no longer sell it (I also feel a little embarrassed about that)。）。

Showing her hard work (which has now become a memento)、I have received fragments of failed works.。Just look at the snippets、Her (effort)、(I don't want to say that) I can feel a piece of passion.。probably、There is no doubt that this technique is unprecedented in the history of "world" watercolor.。If it were me、When the day comes that I can speak out in the art world、I think this is an episode that definitely needs to be told.。

There's only one little medal of hers.。There was a Saitama Prefecture Bunten (no longer exists)。The highest award is the Labor Minister's Award, which is above the Saitama Prefectural Governor's Award.、That's what I received。While being interviewed by NHK and other media outlets before the award ceremony.、She said she wanted to take a picture with me as a souvenir.。I don't care about my guidance、I think the award is the fruit of her efforts alone.、I refused to take a picture with him so as not to spoil it.。And、Such awards are just a "first step."、Now comes the amazing part.、There was an inner arrogance as a leader.。That's my biggest regret since she got sick.。It was a painful episode where I lacked humility.。I sincerely pray for your soul to rest in peace.。2011/7/21

 

While redoing tempera、I suddenly remembered。Rubens, the master of oil painting, painted a chalk base (zinc white with glue).。water absorbent)、Start with egg medium and grassi、In other words, most of the sketches are done using a mixed technique of tempera.、That was then finished with oil painting.。Rubens' paintings are better than other painters of his time.、For example, even if it is black, it is one step deeper.、The blacks of other artists are so tight that they look gray.。The difference seems to be this egg medium and a layer of transparent oil (this is called grassi).、It was said that there seemed to be a secret in the proper use of water and oil.。

Differences from sensuous art materials like watercolor、Oil painting is a kind of chemical、The empirical aspect is much larger.。If you understand the nature of the art materials and use them,、Rubens proves that it can achieve the desired effect.。But、On the other hand, there are ways to use it that are contrary to that.、In the end, there are many paintings that are the key to success.。I wonder if it would be better to say that it is a picture that succeeds with determination.。I don't think you can draw a decent picture with just your spirit.。Apparently, the questioner thinks that "the concrete result of sketching" brings fun.、Isn't it true that if there is no spirit, the painting will not come alive? More than 20 years ago、I remember thinking about that.。

It had been raining intermittently since the morning due to the influence of powerful typhoon No. 6 (the first strong typhoon in a while), but it has stopped now.、A cool breeze has come in (landslide warnings have started to be issued in Saitama Prefecture as well)。It looks like a typhoon will come tomorrow。　　2011/7/20　1:15am
