The photo was taken on the coast of Enoshima during my summer vacation. In the painting, especially the orange and blue in the sky, bring a strong sense of visual impact. Blue and orange correspond to each other on the Color wheel, and I tried very hard to make the gradient effect so that the two colors do not mix together and become cloudy. For the shadow colors I used less chromatic purple and green to express, and did not use gray to make the whole work more vivid. This work is one of my most satisfying paintings of 2020. Every time I see it, it makes my eyes shine. There are many color details waiting for people to discover.
This painting is from one of my photos. Here is a small article.
生活が忙しい日々の中、リラックスのタイムが欲しくなる。 だから、江ノ島に行ってみたよ!久々に海を見て、やはり気持ちは良くなるわ~!眩しい日差し、青い空と海が繋いでいる景色、淡い塩水の匂い、海岸へ打ち上げていく波のメロディ、砂の手触り、全てが夏の思い出。 夏の天気は変わりやすい。朝からずっと晴れていたのに、5時ぐらいからいきなり雨雲が空を覆われた。そして、雷が鳴って豪雨が降り出す。また少し経ったら、黒い雲が散っていて、太陽が再び出てくる。太陽とともに、虹が空に掛かっている。これは夏の妙なところだね! 夕日に染まる空も綺麗!もっと高く飛びたい!空へ旅立って行きたい! I went to Enoshima! After a long time watching the sea, I felt better! The dazzling sunshine, the scenery of the blue sky and the sea, the smell of pale salt water, the melody of the waves launching to the coast, the tactile sensation of sand, all are memories of summer. Summer weather changes quickly. It was sunny all morning, but suddenly rain clouds covered the sky from about 5 o'clock. Then, thunder sounds and heavy rain began to fall. After a while, the black clouds scattered and the sun came out again. Along with the sun, a rainbow hangs in the sky. This is a strange place in summer! The sky dyed by the setting sun is also beautiful! I want to fly higher! I want to fly in the sky! *Written on August 14, 2020 and translated from Japanese.
