Rochester 6x6x2012 has started!

Buy my work Buy my work

6x6x2012 finally has on, since I sent them 6x6 works about a month ago. It is very excited to be on the show in Rochester New York all the way from Osaka Japan even it is an open call. Need some understanding and courage to send to overseas, but take it as a good opportunity and chance for my resume.

(Japanese) 6x6x2012 6月2日から始まりました。1ヶ月前位から作品送ってやっとという感じです。誰でも出せる展示なのですが、遠く大阪からニューヨークのグループ展に送るのはやはりエキサイティングです。英語だし、アメリカ独自のアートの関わり方なので、(日本とは違う)アメリカに応募するのは少し理解や勇気がいる事です。でも履歴にとってもいいし、いい機会だと思います。

Anyone could enter up to 10 artworks of any medium (2D or 3D) and there was no fee to enter.

Preregistering is like having an "Open Tab" and RoCo will keep your credit card on file making Artwork purchase faster and easier during the busy opening reception weekend. Registration lines on opening night (June 2) can be very long and may prohibit you from getting your favorite artwork. Pregistration is highly recommended!

    Opening Night Raffle for Buyer Positions 1-20 If you would like to achieve an early buyer position to improve your chances of selecting your favorite artworks, you may enter a raffle for buyer position #1 - 20.

Buyer position #2 is then drawn, announced, and the winner will have 1 minute to select their artwork purchases before buyer position #3 is announced, etc. Buyer position #1 may continue to select artworks after buyer position #2 is called, and so on. One minute after buyer position #20 is announced "3, 2, 1, GO!" will be announced and all other buyers will be allowed to make their selections. Stickers (dots) for selecting your chosen artworks must be purchased ($20 each) prior to the start of the raffle.

    Cash or Check Please! We expect opening night (Sat. June 2, 6-10pm) to be a very busy event. In order to register your 6x6 purchases as quickly as possible and limit your wait time (we will have several more lines this year), we ask that you pay with cash or check if possible. Please note that we do accept all major credit cards, however paying with check or cash will be slightly faster on opening night.

    Painting - "Bottles"

    Buy my work Buy my work

    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

    Buy my work Buy my work

    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

    Buy my work Buy my work

    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。(^_~)
