Toki" (formerly "Asa no Koe") No.1324 Misaki district, Ikitsuki Island, Hirado City, Nagasaki Prefecture. The dawn sky painted from the beach near my studio. The sky, which I started painting in the morning when it was still dark, gradually brightens and changes gently but violently, being colored with various colors. The two islands seen below are Azuchi Oshima (left) and Takushima (right). （Oil crayon (oil pastel) on handmade Japanese paper This work was started in 2006 and completed in 2024. The original drawing method (KOOSAIHO) uses nine colors of oil pastel crayon (oil pastel), adding white to the eight colors of the rainbow (rainbow + red/purple), and focusing on the colors of the rainbow that permeate the natural world, he rubs each color on his finger, overlapping them in a unique order, smashing them with oil, rubbing, and scraping to create layers of color. The result is a painting technique that attempts to approach the deep colors of the natural world. The red bridge that crosses the northernmost point of Nagasaki Prefecture in Kyushu, Japan, is the Hirado Bridge. The red bridge that crosses the island is the Hirado Ohashi Bridge, which is the northernmost bridge in Nagasaki Prefecture in Kyushu, Japan. I fell in love with the nature of this Ikitsuki Island and am currently in the process of opening a gallery in the northernmost part of the island (2024.9). All of his works are one-of-a-kind. The impression changes depending on the place (light source) where you see them due to the layering effect of rainbow colors.
