The blur and joy of having to take the time and effort when it can be done in a fraction of the time with digital
Added 2025-06-25 08:55:51 +0000 UTCToday's picture. This is yesterday's painting, though I'm late in posting it.
I'm having a hard time putting the colors together. When I want to make the rest of the picture a little bluish, I can do it in an instant with a color adjustment layer if it is digital, but with paints, I have to make a plan and compose the picture at the beginning of painting, or paint over thin colors many times to get the desired color tone little by little. When I paint with a digital sensibility, I often feel that it is troublesome.
This is frustrating, but also enjoyable when I think that I can control even the smallest details myself.

今日の絵。投稿するのが遅れて昨日の絵、ですが。
色をまとめるのに苦労しています。画面残体をちょっと青っぽくしたい、というような時、デジタルなら色調調整レイヤーで一瞬でできるのですが、絵の具だと、描き初めの段階で、計画を立てて画面を構成していくか、薄い色を何度も塗り重ねて少しずつ狙った色味に寄せていくしかなくて、デジタルの感覚で描いていると、面倒だな、と思う事がよくあります。
それがもどかしかったり、細かい部分まで自分でコントロールできるのだ、と考えると楽しくもあったり。
