My 3rd girlfriend came to my flat , watched the video ” Witches in Eastwick ” she chose , a fucking boring film , after that I suggested ” Let’s watch porn video ! ” ,At that years , early 20s , I had some nasty videos for curiosity , I said it for just kidding . But , but she wanted to watch it , even though I was begging to fold down , she insisted to watch .And seemed she enjoyed much with hearty laughing , never frowned , it was so unexpected . At the time I felt she was a some kind of witch who has a curiosity much , having tentacles . though she used to say , ” You are 180 degree different from an artist type , just animal like “ Exactly , at the time All I wanted was Rock music , not an art lover I never thought I would fall in love with Paintings later , seasons change Really my life has changed I made a illustration about that . I was stunned by her words .

This drawing represents a new beginning in digital painting. Well now I got a tablet, allowing more paintings done well. So .... I'm ready to start.....

English title: Paper Crane // EN: I was inspired by Japanese wall scrolls when making this render. I tried to make it look like a painting using various effects to make a render look painted. I used lots of reds and yellows like wall scrolls usually have, and had a crane as the main subject as cranes are very common in Japanese paintings. Initially this was just a generic render of a crane, but after noticing its resemblance to a wall scroll I decided to change the direction of the render and give it a painted look, inspired by scrolls. It was a lot of fun to make and I think it came out beautifully! This render is highly experimental, in a style I've never tried out before, but I want to make more like it. Render ideas are always welcome! JP: このレンダリングは、日本の掛け軸にインスパイアされて作りました。レンダリングを絵画的に見せるために、さまざまなエフェクトを使って絵画のように見せようとしました。また、日本画には鶴がよく登場するので、鶴をメインモチーフにしました。当初は一般的な鶴のレンダリングでしたが、壁掛けに似ていることに気づき、レンダリングの方向性を変えて、壁掛けをイメージした絵画調にしました。とても楽しくて、いいものができたと思います。
