I observe life
more than
I live it.
a little more conversation and a little more touch my body also
Today’s theme: responding to literally any unfortunate happenstance with “this is not my fetish”.

Friend: Hey have heard of enjoying things in moderation
Me, my fingers deeply embedded in the only thing I’ve done or talked about for the last week: I have no idea what you mean

First floor of the house my main character bought to live in. An old and quite small Japanese style detached house just outside Tokyo. As the house will play a significant role in the project I set out to make a model image. I probably broke a hundred more strict Japanese architecture rules with this one but the only reference I had where photos on Japanese house renting websites (a great resource BTW).
Painted on non-watercolour paper which was a mistake probably, looking back.Technical stuff:
・ Paper: TMK KENT 200 B4
・ Colours: My 48 colours watercolours set
・ Line: MITSU-BISHI HI-UNI 2B
自分の時間がとれなくて自作が進めづらい最近ですが、今回の作品に大きな役割を果たす主人公の一軒家一階のイメージボードが描きあがりました。またいろんな日本家屋作りのルールをやぶったと思いますが(笑)、不動産屋の写真を参考にしています。
テクスチャなしのケントブロックを使っています、水彩にはあまり相応しくないようです。ツール詳細
・ 紙: ミューズ ケント紙 ケントブロック B4 #200
・ 色: 僕の48色の水彩セット
・ 線画:HI-UNI 2B
