1 hour painting #2


My 2nd " 1 hr challenge" !

My paintings are always little bit de-saturated ( Is it right word? ) every time I post on Blogger...
Does anyone have same problem?

Let's try 1 hour painting!


Dave suggested me to limit my time for painting for practice.
I usually spend...I don't know, 10 hours or so...? for one painting.
I decided to try 1 hour quick sketch and painting.

・・・It's hard! But fun at the same time:)

A BEDTIME STORY

MIO

Hello hello!

How are you doing?

I've met an artist mio. She makes food with clay which is the cutest thing ever!!




Aren't these amazing??

So tiny, and so detailed....
I think she loves food. Because her work isn't just making small thing. Beautiful and unique, and professional!

You can find more works here!

Enjoy!

Pollen Allergy Alert!!!

It's kind of a big deal in Japan. There are lots of people with mask everywhere!
I haven't got this allergy but.... I'm not sure if I can avoid it.
Maybe I need masks.
Actually you can get really cool one like "3D" mask! ...oh, I don't know it's really cool
but I don't think I have a choice.....
