Painting - "Bottles"

I just added my painting on my artist sites.
Here this is a quick painting of a study of abstract still life. My teacher said I needed to totally abstract the shape and all that not able to tell what they were. But I still like it myself though.

Close UP Glasses

I just added new works on my art sites.
This work is called Close Up Glasses, just as so, that depict my own glasses as abstract expressionism style. Like moving my brushes in motion along with my state of feeling like unconscious painting. (^_~)

photobook

CanonのPhotopressoというphotobook作成サイトで作品集を作りました。
現在公開／販売しています！

まだ作品はすべてアーチストサイトで編集していなく全ての作品の画像がそろっていないのですが、お見せできるものを選んでまとめてみました。
Photopressoの編集自体楽しかったので、またおいおいテーマに分けてphotobookを作るのもいいかな、と思いました。
写真も撮ったりするので、写真集も作りたいです。
作品集はとりあえず３部作りました。
個人用、ギャラリーなどでお見せする用、どこかで置かせてもらう用です。
また皆様の目に留まるといいなと思います。
よろしくお願いします。(^_~)

My intro is on A Journal!

A/Journal is a Academy of Art University (AAU) alumni free paper and they come out seasonal. I was invited to on the page last year, and now it is out! Winter 2011 edition
They sent it me to Japan, so I upload the part to everyone. You can also download pdf version from the link.

invitation from Berlin

Always when thinking about getting another part-time job, there is some offer. After a show in London, there are offer for one day show in Barcelona Spain. There seems no selection but it costs a rental fee, so I am thinking to give and doing something else, and then next I got an email from a gallery at Berlin. I mean the officer is in London, but the gallery is in Berlin, they said. This is a selective project and by asking them it seems kind of a good deal, so I am thinking to sign-up and send my works to them. Just the due is April and very soon, so I hope at least I can meet the deadline...

When I proceed more on the project, I will talk more about it...

Here I will show the images of Rochester Contemporary Art Center how 6x6 works will be presented.

my 6x6 has arrived!

I received an email from Rochester Contemporary Art Center that they got my package. I am looking forward the 6x6x2012 benefit show!

Working on sending works to RCAC

I found an information of the 6x6 2012 benefit show,
http://www.roco6x6.org/6x6x2012_intro.php

and I decided to send my mini works for the show. Since I just spent a lots of money for the show in London, and I don't want to (or cannot) spent much money at the moment, so I choose more easy "Call" for the next project. Even I have got the offer from the show in Barcelona, I don't think I can do, but this is the benefit show for everybody (not only artists but anybody), and there is "no fee" to join the event, so I will take another chance to send works to NY.

The show will be at the Rochester Contemporary Art Center and from June 2 - July 15, 2012.
Detail is on the link above and I will let you know how it will be when I send my works there.

Here are the works I will send. (still need to scan some works that I don't have on file.)
