Watercolor Painting

Color Wheel

Pencil, water color painting on paper.
This is the foundation of watercolor painting - understanding the laws of color. Knowing the relative colors can be used to mix the colors you want in the subsequent color matching.

Sweet and Sour

Pencil, water color painting on paper.
The lemons in this picture are meant to complement the apples. I patiently textured the apples with a slender brush, layer by layer to create layers of color and graphics. The shadow below is also working hard. The shadow of the apple is a little red, and the shadow of the lemon is a little yellow.

Look closely at the shadow of this painting, and some of the colors of the objects appear on the shadow. Transparency is strong. For this painting I used a lot of gradients to create layers of 3D objects. Moreover, these three vegetables are all vegetables with strong colors, and they will bring a strong visual chromatic impact to the viewers.

The Coolness of Greenery Day

Pencil, water color painting on paper.
Greenery Day is a holiday in Japan where rising temperatures herald the arrival of summer. The transparent glass wine glass and lime, as well as the smooth summer peach, give a faint cool feeling. The glass was originally transparent, but when I looked closely, I found a hint of green and blue in the refraction of light and shadow, so I painted this special beauty on paper with a brush.

Summer Peaches and Glasses

I remember the day I had just arrived in the studio and saw fluffy peaches and a dark blue translucent wine glass on the table. I drew it on paper, and I still remember the sweet and smooth texture of the peach.

Shanghai and Beijing

​​Pencil, marker, water color painting on paper.
​The paintings of Shanghai and Beijing were painted in Japan to remind me of the memories of my trip. It reminds me of my grandparents, their birthdays, shopping for presents, eating delicious food and visiting famous places. Whilst I only lived there for nine years, I still feel and remember the beauty of these two great cities. To be able to spend time back there and share memories with my family will stay with me forever and that is why I captured this time with painting. ​

Royal Blue Fishtail Skirt Dress

Picture
FEB 15, 2020
​​Pencil, water color painting on paper.
I started preparing for my dream of becoming a fashion designer. Started by drawing clothes. This is a blue polar fishtail dress. I used a gradient for the colors - light at the ends and dark in the middle to visually shorten the width of the legs and waist. The only fly in the ointment is the bow in the middle, but obviously he doesn't look like it. After that, I thought of many ways to remedy it, but all of them were indifferent.

Dreamy Lilac Pleated Skirt

​​​Pencil, water color painting on paper.
This is a dreamy masterpiece. For the color of the dress I chose a dreamy lilac, which is also my favorite color. The overall saturation is not high, not too obtrusive. The overall look of the dress is noble and elegant, and the dahlias inlaid at the waist highlight the femininity, and it is also a little playful and cute.

Fanciful Colors

Picture
JAN 23, 2021
​​​​​​​​​​​Pencil, water color painting on paper.
A colorful eyeshadow palette is probably every girl's dream. In the painting is my suqqu four-color eyeshadow, with a golden edge and a black plate in the back of the colorful four colors. The eyeshadow palette is very sequined so I also used sequins for this painting. The most difficult part of this painting was actually the surrounding background. This background seems to be a little pink, a little purple and a little rose red. I used special color-changing pigments that reflect light. The color of the frame is also very special, to achieve a good gradient effect I even spent more time than coloring the eyeshadow palette, repeatedly smudging and layering the color.

This is the Nakasato Snow Resort in Niigata Prefecture. The warm and soft sun rises slowly from the back of the mountain in winter, and the snow glows with golden halos like diamonds. It was a challenge to paint a bleeding texture with watercolors.

The Rose

Picture
2021 May.
​​Pencil, water color painting on paper.
I have a rose garden in my house. 
I can't go anywhere in Corona! 😭
But the roses in the garden have begun to bloom.
It's very beautiful! !!
It's like a park!
This year is already the 4th year. Four years ago, I saw a rose garden on the net and said, "This garden is beautiful," and wanted to create a beautiful rose garden like that, so I chose roses at the store with my parents. I started to grow it. The first year was hard. The soil didn't fit, the fertilizer was wrong, the calyx was eaten by insects, the leaves died, and so on. 😖 Still I didn't give up. I read a lot of books, searched online, and thought about countermeasures. Now that I have overcome these difficulties, I have a beautiful garden like this. So these roses are my "things". Yes, it's not just a rose!

There are many colors such as pink, pink, magenta, white, and so on.
The colors look similar, but if you look closely, even the same petals are slightly different in gradation. The smell is also different. Roses are not the same as humans! Everyone is different. If you look closely, you can tell.
Every day, when I go in and out, I take a road surrounded by roses. That alone will blow away any bad things. I'm happy just to see the roses! 🥰

The weather is getting warmer too! I mean, there are times when it's summery. Summer vacation is just around the corner! I'll do my best ~ ♪

The costumes worn by the girls in the painting are traditional Chinese costumes. It is a costume worn by Chinese women who danced a special dance in ancient times. I think it is very elegant, there is a special culture and style hidden in the painting.​

Dancer by the Sea

​​Pencil, marker, water color painting on paper.
The picture is the coast of Minami-Izu. I danced on the grass. The special feature of this scene is that it is surrounded by northern mountains, but there is a mouth leading to the vast ocean. I spent a lot of time painting the texture of the currents on the sea.​

Bright Moon, Tranquil Sea

Picture
SEP 9, 2021
​​Pencil, goad pan, water color painting on paper.
I love painting the sea. I think the sea is the home of everything. The sea makes me feel relaxed and comfortable. This is the view from the window when I soaked in the hotel's private open-air hot spring at night. A bright moon hangs over the calm sea. I simply took paper and pen and drew this picture. The hardest part of this painting was trying to describe the night without being completely dark. The light and shadow part is the biggest test. As I paddled, I suddenly discovered that the sky at night is also colored, not pitch black. The moon is not yellow, it is white. Because the moon is bright.​

Snow Princess Under the Stars

Sequined paint, Schmincke paint, silver and white gel pens, and pastel pencil on the​ black card paper.
This is a portrait of me cosplaying Elsa, leaning on a sofa. One day, I saw the beautiful patterns on black card paper on children's graffiti art paper once, which inspired me to try painting on black paper. There are a lot of details and techniques in the painting. These pretty patterns on Elsa's skirt were painted one by one, and shadowing was also applied to the painting of the sofa.

Seasons Of Lifetime

Watercolor and mark pens on the paper.
​The whole picture was about an old lady who reminisced about her whole life in her later years. The painting was divided into two parts. The left part included four different stages of trees to represent different stages of life. It means that life will experience countless spring, summer, autumn and winter, numerous such reincarnation, and finally go through their own life. These small pictures on the right represent important moments in a person's life. The whole painting was composed of 15 small paintings, so as to describe the whole life of a woman.

Pencil, white acrylic paint, water color painting on paper.
These painting are illustrations for 
my own book. The painting depicts when Serena's pink notebook was thrown into the sea, and she jumped into the sea in desperation. In the painting,
“Serena (The main character in the book) clutched the notebook in the ocean as waves roll over her, as if they were going to swallow her up in the next second. Salty sea water poured into her mouth and nose, and her face switched between air and water. A big wave hit her, she lost her strength and her consciousness gradually faded.
