    Description

    Hempen paper, water-dried used. This is a freshwater tropical fish from Lake Tanganyika. I have bred them. It is a mouse breeder, which means that the eggs are hatched and raised in the mouth to protect the fry from enemies. The color of the fish looks like a panda, isn't it cute? Japanese painting is based on a style of painting that has existed for more than 1,000 years, and uses traditional materials that have been cultivated throughout history. It is a technique of painting on Japanese paper, silk, wood, etc., using natural paints such as sumi ink, iwa-enogu (mineral pigments), gofun (gofun), etc., and glue (nikawawa) as an adhesive. Gold and other metal materials (gold leaf, etc.) are also used. Iwa-enogu, made from ores, is a beautiful, sand-like powder. Mizuhigure, made from clay, is a fine, stretchy paint with fine particles. Artificial versions of iwa-enogu and mizuhoshi egur are also made, and are available in a wide variety of colors. Goko, made from shells, is a white pigment with fine particles.

  • About this artist

    Concept

    Although I am old as a viewer and new as an artist, I always try to challenge myself by adopting new techniques and expressions without forgetting the spirit of life and motion. I mainly paint "Nihonga" using mineral pigments. Nihonga" is based on a style of painting that has existed for more than 1,000 years, and uses traditional materials that have been cultivated throughout history. The technique involves painting on Japanese paper, silk, wood, etc., using natural pigments such as iwa-enogu (mineral pigments) and gofun (gofun), and glue (nikawa) as an adhesive. Gold and other metal materials (gold leaf, etc.) are also used. Iwa-enogu, made from ores, is a beautiful, sand-like powder. Mizuhigure, made from clay, is a fine, stretchy paint with fine particles. Artificial versions of iwa-enogu and mizuhoshi egur are also made, and are available in a wide variety of colors. Goko, made from shells, is a white pigment with fine particles. We look forward to working with you.
