Freedom and Expression-2

We.da.i 2021.11.16

Last time、In order to obtain true freedom, it is said that ``become free from yourself = throw away your (desires and desires)''、It was a story about a Zen monk.。I see.、I thought、At the same time, I also thought that it would be impossible for 99.99% of people in the world.。

There is nothing to be gained by giving up desires and desires.、I know that I can only do what I can't do, but I'm frustrated、It means I can have time with my true self.、I don't know how it will manifest itself。I can imagine that there is an expression of oneself and oneself (behavior) that becomes visible only when one reaches a state of mind that is close to ``enlightenment.''、I can think of expressions that would otherwise be impossible.。

on the other hand、99,99%Some of the people、On the contrary, aren't there some people who try to be faithful to their desires and earthly desires?。Becoming more and more radical with the aim of "deceiving people"、That direction。What kind of world will that end in?。Somehow、I have a larva that hatches itself、The appearance of caterpillars that turn into butterflies overlaps.。If the caterpillar is “me” at that point,、After all, isn't he throwing away who he was and becoming his true self?。

There, like a circle、Maybe we're just seeing different aspects of the same thing.。If so...。But、Either way, it's no good to be half-hearted (no、If mere phase is the essence、Maybe it's the same thing)、That's what I feel (at the moment)。And I also believe that 99.99% of people must be half-hearted.。

Toyohashi quail eggs

Toyohashi quail eggs (study 1)

for at least the last 2 years、My breakfast style is to eat two quail eggs in a pack of natto almost every morning.。The most common pattern is 1 slice of bread (cut into 6 slices) (sometimes 100g of rice) and natto with quail eggs (40g).。200g of Caspian Sea yogurt and soybean yogurt mixed together.。and make a cup of coffee。oh yeah、200cc of milk after muscle training when you wake up。

lunch、Dinner is different though、It's mostly like that in the morning。I don't know if it's because of that、The internal condition is almost stable.。Last 1-2 weeks、Sweets, Pocari Sweat, etc.、I'm drawing the "products" you see at supermarkets and convenience stores.、Looking at the table after breakfast、I drew this in that vein。

That's why、The aim is not the egg.、Rather than a container pack。It's transparent so it's hard to see what's going on。What I feel when I draw、usually? If so, it's something that doesn't make a picture.、It's something that many people wouldn't think of as a subject for a painting (because it's too cheap).、When I try to draw with it, it doesn't look anything like "high-quality art supplies."。Difficulty level too、Even this quail egg、It's not as easy as a rose in a vase.。In fact, everyone knows about ready-made products.、I feel like I can't cheat。

I think it would be interesting to draw this as an oil painting.。Young people sometimes exhibit paintings depicting such subjects.、There are parts where I can nod my head.。Let's continue like this for a while。

pencil drawing

Pencil drawing-2

Blue seagull painting class。We did some pencil drawings in Wednesday's watercolor class.。This is a request from the class.。The organizer contacted me and said, ``There is a request to study about chiaroscuro expressions.''、about it in the classroom、As a result of discussing what to do、I decided to study in two stages: 1. Training to see light and darkness 2. How to use light and darkness。I guess he wants to reconfirm the basics.。

Regarding ①, I decided to do "pencil drawing".。Regarding ②, it has not been decided yet.、Analyzing examples of works by masters regarding the expression of light and shade、Creating practice pieces、I'm thinking of doing it in two stages.。"Pencil Drawing" Part 1 is "Apple and Plaster Statue"。I have prepared three combinations.、two are selected、this is one of them。

“Drawing 1” is completed within the class time、I also tried to draw it。Because it is a light and dark expression、You want to be able to distinguish (draw) at least 4 levels of brightness and darkness.。and express it (reproducibly)。That's -1。

But、Actually it's only about 2 hours、Even if you can see it、Not enough time to express。Moreover, this motif is only available this time.。This is why、saturday afternoon、Match the lighting conditions to the on-site photo as much as possible.、I drew it by myself for about 3 hours while referring to the photos, and here it is -2.。Although my expression has become stiff,、I felt like an art student for the first time in a while.。Recently、Reproducible depictions, pencil drawings, etc.、I am forced to do the exact opposite of my current direction.。On the other hand, what makes it feel fresh is that、Maybe it's because I'm essentially an analog person.。
