Dancing in rain



Greenn Mubazarra, Al Ain. This is the top of rocky mountain aera.

This is the hotspring in this town. It is called Green Mubazarra.
Every weekend, this area is covered by lots of tourists.


I painted this almost 2 years ago and
 added some stroke.

Catching light







Al Ain vegetable souq.
One of the parasol has broken, so it turns to funny shape.
All men are energetically working.
I like market.

There are lives over there.


16 Celsius to 28 today.
Winter has come to Al Ain.
We can go out for sketching.

I won't need to AC  on when I sketch from my car from now.
We got nice rain yesterday. So the temperature rapidly dropped.
Great season in this town.






Saniya area in Al Ain.

セメントファクトリーが小さくみえるここからの風景をいつかは描きたいとおもって、
早、8年経過。手前は道路ですが、直線できれるのがつまらないので、
緑がせり出しているようにアレンジ。
最近気がついたけれど、
5色くらいしか使っていない。
パレットには、20色近くでているが、
結局使う色はいつもおなじ。






Cafe and restaurant, Duroi, Al Ain Mall at around 10am.

There is the glass ceiling top of this cafe.
Everything was covered by the natural light.
I was fascinated by the scene.

The plant lost half of green, because of the light.
It turned to white and shinning.
If I could have my art room like this situation, it would be fantastic.

November



ハロウイーンというのは、どうしても、わからない。
私の小さいころはなかったので、
まったく経験がない。
最近は、日本でも、かなりの人気。
何とか理解をしようとおもうのだけど、
よくわからないまま、すぎていく。

かぼちゃを描きたいというひとがいたので、
何とか手にいれたが、
これがなかなかくせもので、
おもったようにはならない。

かぼちゃは、
腐ったようになってしまったので、カットしてしまった。



この縞々のは、かぼちゃというより、うりのよう。
で、絵は描いたので、食べることになるのだけど、
これをどう料理していいものやら。





           ぼやぼやしてると、ついに11月。
早い!
ほんとに早い。
あれもしたい、これもしたい、あれも描きたい、これも描きたい!
と、計画は立派なわりには、なかなかすすまない。
facebookへの毎日のポストの計画は、そこそこできてきた。
何を描くかがきまると、あとはかなり、スムーズになってきた。
しかし、邪魔ははいる。
使ってない色がたくさん箱にねむっている。
これをつかってみようかな、あれをつかってみようかな。
邪念を取り除く訓練をすれば、もっと早くできあがるはず。
これが、これからの課題かも。

Thank you for visiting my blog.

It is already November, 
I am planning sketching  Al Ain this winter holiday.
I hope my daughter can join me at least.:)

Fun,fun,fun









Al Ain Zoo.

Last year, I painted lots of animals. But this year there is not many chance to do.
 I should try more.
:)
Thank you for coming to my blog.

Have a nice day for UAE people and one more working day for other countries people.



Oh, Halloween is coming, isn't it?

I HAVE TO paint pumpkin, right?

Hurry, hurry!!!

この寅には、何かが一つ描きわすれられています。
それは、なんでしょう?
左の耳?
いや、もうひとつあります。

Quiz

I forgot to paint one part of this tiger.
Which part?
Can you find out?
The left ear?
Yes, I know, but one more.

:)





This was a challenge.
How to paint morning sun.
I used yellow, but the light was not yellow.:(



Around 7am near my house.
There are lots of municipality buildings over there.
Unfortunately, almost all are not interesting design.
because 60 years ago, buildings didn't exist in UAE.
So all are very modern.
This is typical modern building as well, but it shows fantastic shadows.
People starts to cue around 7am in front of this building to sort out their ID cards.


It depends on shadow colour.
The impression changes.
This is the great example for learning shadow colour.

重さをどうやって描くかというのは、いつもの課題。
テーブルに接しているところの描き方?
影の色?
奥が深い。
まだまだ先は遠い。



11/6/2014

I painted this 4 month ago.
I feel that it is very fresh. 
This is a tiny path where I drive every day.
A father and his son were walking away from the main road.
That was really beautiful scene.







In 2013, we lived a tiny apartment.
Luckily our room was in front of the apartment main gate.
I used to see people who pass in front of our living room window.
I didn't need to go out to sketch people.
I just sat the dining room chair and sketch them.
So this is one old piece.
They were waiting for a taxi.
One really, really hot afternoon.







I want to paint flower suddenly. So we did this in Art club, but it was not great.
This morning, I was frustrated again.
So I just dropped lots of colour, water and salt.
I feel better.hahaha





UAE National day preparation has started.
I love to focus workers who come from outside. 
The National day is 2nd of December.
All decoration will be left until January.








I got lots of pears last night. So before eating, I had to paint them.
Before going to yoga this morning. I did very quickly.

I feel it is fantastic to do. Because pears are really fragile fruits. 
So we have to eat them quickly, otherwise brown bruises quickly spread all over.




One of my facebook friend post this video this morning.

Alternatif Hayat's video Asura Feat Ayten -El Hai

I was hugely inspired by this video.





I enjoyed this portrait very much.
I want to try some more like this.

:)



Painting Japan.

From my facebook friend photo.
If I can paint in spots in Japan, it would be great though.

長い間日本を離れていた目で、
描く日本は、少しちがってみえるかもしれない。
昔は、神社仏閣を描こうなんて
思ったこともなかったけれど、最近は、
ネットで、日本の写真をみると、
あーこれが、
私の、ルーツなんだなと思うときがある。





I painted this about 4 years ago as a Etegami to my mum, but I like this very much. So I've still been keeping in my room.
彼女の顔を見るたびに、なんだか、幸せな気分。

I appreciate blog very much. I would not have continued my dairy without blog.

Water, water

This is the old piece. Maybe I painted this about 3 years ago.
I should have written the day on the painting.
It is postcard size. I painted this to send as Etegami, but I like this very much. So I still keep it.
I should paint another version of " Water, water".

何のために描いているのだろうとおもうときがある。
なぜ、描いているのだろうと思うときがある。
ひとついえるのは、パレットにある色が紙の上で、形になるときの感動を味わいたいと、無意識に思っているからだろうと思う。
たくさんの、アクシデントで考えてみなかったものが生まれるとき、今日は、幸運だった!と、心のなかで、vサインをする。どれだけがんばっても、何も生まれないときもあるけど、それはそれで、よしとすることにしている。

painting Japan


Why I feel comfortable,when I paint water?
I borrowed a photo from my facebook friend.
It would be great to paint at the scene though.

日本は、島国。
水に対する思いは、どの国の人よりも強いのではと思うときがある。
数え切れないくらいの、水に関する漢字がそれをものがたっている。
残念ながら、この町、アルアインでは、川も海もないので、水を描くという機会がないのがさみしい。
いや、あった、温泉がでているところがある。
ハフィート山のふもとに温泉が出るところがあって、そこに、温泉のお湯が川のように流れているところがあるではないの。
よし、いまからそれを描こう。

Al Ain vegetable souq

Who hates to see markets?
I love to see them.
Tents, people and tens of vegetables, fruits and fishes etc.

面白いのは、ほとんど、女性をみかけません。
アラブの国では、買出しは男の仕事というのがあるらしいです。
エミラテイの女性で、デイツツリーの葉で、かごを作ったのを売ってたりしますが、
スケッチも、写真撮影もできないので、登場人物は男性になってしまいます。

Al Ain vegetable souq

These days, it is really difficult to find out people who don't have smart phones.
The guy was just focusing on his smart phone . He was not caring what was standing in front of him. That was me.hahaha

I love to go to the souq.
Luckily the location is great. The centre of this town.
Unluckily parking design is so poor, so it is really difficult to get out in peak time.

It is already October!!!

Wadi, Al Ain


 I like to see the morning light. Around 7 am, some people are already started walking towards their work.Every morning, I see this rough concrete path. Finally I painted it this morning.
I like the guy's shadow and shadow's of a pole which is not seen in this paper.

Thank you for visiting my blog.:)

Near Al Ain Mall


I painted this street almost year ago.
My way of painting changed a lot today.
I ignored tiny details and focused on the green net of construction site.

Thank you for visiting my blog.:)

先日,熱くなったなべのとってを、
知らずににぎってしまい、
左手にやけど。

握った瞬間、血圧がががーーーーーーーんと、
あがったのがわかった。
心臓がばくばく。
昔は、やけど程度で、全身が反応するなんてことはなかった。

週1で、ヨガをはじめた。
知り合いが、
教えてくれるという。
最初の2回のレッスンのあとは、
地獄だった。
歩けない。
夕ご飯の支度をするのも、
つらいくらいからだがぼろぼろになった。

ヨガは健康になるためにやるのに、
これはなんなんだーと。

気がついた。
やりすぎなわけだ。


若いひとと、いっしょに、1時間半はわたしには長すぎた。

2回わずらって気がついた。

デ、今日は、45分。

体すっきり。
無理は禁物。

自分の体を知ること。
いや、自分の年齢をしることが、
こんなに大切なことだとは。

やけどのあと、
毎日、
血圧を測るようになった。

14年もまえに、ただでもらっていた血圧計。

使ったことがなかった。


何かで、病院にいくたびに、
100と60とかで、
安定した血圧だったから。

なんと、やけどのあと、142まであがった。
めまいはするし、吐き気はするし。
3日後くらいにすぐに落ち着いたけれど、

高血圧の人の気持ちがやっとわかった次第。

あのあと、毎日血圧をはかるようになった。

体にいいと、kale という野菜を注文したりも。

体はいつかは、動かなくなるだろうが、
頭だけはしっかりしておきたいと願っている。

Al Jimi Mall


Carrifour is opened at 9am everyday.I am lucky to live very clost to it.
There are lots of signs of shops, flags and chairs of cafe and  ..
So I tried to paint by sepia to learn how to simplified.

Painting Al Ain


I like to focus on people who are working for this town.
It is around 7am.
It is already hot.
Everything turns to indigo blue this time and little by little all thing get colour.

I like to catch this moment.

Thank you for visiting.

Painting Japan 3



It is a day to paint Japan.
Unfortunately, I am not in Japan, so I have to borrow some photos from my friend.
Yasuyo Nagashima https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100004440307926&fref=ts

I was surrounded by great environment to paint when I was a child, but that time I had no idea how I should had done.

 Thank you for visiting my blog.
Have a great day.

negative painting


Whenever I do negative painting, I feel like I found out something different world in my soul.

My home town in Japan


There is no sea in Al Ain.
Because it is inland in UAE.
I really want to paint water yesterday.
Finally, I borrowed my facebook friend photo( I got permission from her)>
 I used mainly indigo, 
sepia and violet.

painting Japan 1


It is so much fun to paint water.
Unfortunately, I painted this piece from my facebook friend photo.(I got her permission :))

I feel I have been changing little by little. It is really weird feeling.
Because I have never enjoyed painting landscape.
Especially when I tried to paint water, I feel so happy.

I've been living middle of the desert for 14 years.
My soul has been looking water deeply.

painting Al Ain 4


This is the old piece by Nescafe Instant coffee.
It is so much fun by coffee powder.
I should try some more pieces.

painting Al Ain 3

I've known this round about for 14 years.Whenever I drive this RA, I want to paint, but I have no idea how  to do. Finally, I did yesterday. The composition was not perfect, but I feel so happy to see this piece.
How many people pay attention about this RA, because everybody busy to go to their offices and drop their kids etc. Not many chance to appreciate our surroundings.  Me either.

Golden rope


I don't know why I always automatically focus ropes which tie between them.

Thank you for visiting my blog.

Have a great day.:)

365 pieces?



I am very good at math. lol
If I paint one piece a day, it will turn to 365 pieces at the end of  a year.
