My Hero Chopin

  This picture is Chopin. I made it by kiri-e. I'll show it at the corner of C-Artis on Kai-yu-sai. This is the "My hero" category and its title is "My hero Chopin". I like Chopin's music and his personality. In addition, I'm studying about Chopin and Poland  as my graduation study. I like both Chopin and Poland.
  This work have some meaningful things. I'll explain those meaning. First, look at Chopin's cloth. Can you see some words on it? These words have some relation to Chopin. For example, piano, Warsaw, polonaise and so on. However, cause of my poor skill, these alphabets are not clear and hard to read :( Second, please look at lines on middle of paper. Lines have some objects, butterfly, puppy, wind with leaves, and soldiers. These things express Chopin's works. Butterfly is the etude "Butterfly", puppy is the waltz "Puppy", wind is the etude "Winter-wind", soldiers is the etude "Revolution". I'm sure that people who loving Chopin will find these means.  Third, check the color of score of the upside and the bottom. The upside color is white, and the bottom color is red. These color means national flag's color of Poland. The color of flag is half upside is white and another side is red. Finally, do you know what melody is both the upside and the bottom score? This is a part of the main melody of a polonaise. It is "Heroic Polonaise". I like Chopin's polonaise a lot. Of cause, I like Heroic Polonaise. The theme of this piece is "My hero". So this kiri-e have many meanings. Please come to the booth of C-Artis and look this colorful work on October.

Kyoto trip

 In July 18^th, I went to Kyoto to sight-seeing with my superiors. We worried about weather because my superiors said I am rain-man (a man who never comes or goes out without being met by wet weather), and typhoon was approaching Japan. I don’t believe that I am a rain-man, but I worried about weather, so I made teru-teru-boy before our departure. I took leave to make magical, I hope strong power of teru-teru-boy. I drew like a sun on his face. However, it was rainy day at Kyoto.

 At Kyoto, first, we went to East-Hongan-Temple. It was so big, but interior decorations are looks new. However, it was magnificent temple. I like there. Next, we went to Shijo-Kawara-Street, it is shopping arcade. We went somewhere. I liked army shop. That shop selling model guns, army clothes and so on. It was so funny. And then, we ate lunch at a pasta restaurant. I like pasta! Their pasta was so good! I want to go there again. After that, we went to Kiyomizu-Temple, it was my third time visiting, but rainy day is was first :( My superior M wanted to buy “safe driving talisman”, and I wanted to buy “talisman of achievement study”. However, I lost it! I’m looking for it now! We drew a fortune slip. My superior M was Kichi and I was Kichi too. My fortune slip said that I am honest, so if I met some obstacle, I will overcome that. I believe that and decided I continue to study for my goal! After finished sight-seeing, we went to public bath. It was so good like a heaven :) I like Kyoto and Japanese culture!

Anatomy book

 It is an art anatomy illustrated book. It’s my favorite book!

 I have a lot of free time while my part time job, so I often draw picture. Usually, I was scrabbling picture at part time job’s free time, but last time was different. I used this book and drew as STUDY with seeing diagrams. Studying anatomy is very important to draw human and animal. I want to know what kind of bones or muscles human have, and their layout. Learning about these things is so interesting! I learned about only arm and palm yet, and these are not enough. So, my learning way is very very long, but I will never give up. I will surely master drawing human!!

Matsue trip

 In July 10^th, I went to Matsue as seminar trip with Akasaka teacher’s seminar member and Hatta teacher’s seminar member. First, we went to Matsue History Museum. I like history, so I liked there. After that, we separated small group and move with them. My group has 4 people, 1 boy (me) and 3 girls. OMG! In addition, these 3 girls were all Hatta teacher’s seminar (I’m Akasaka teacher seminar)!!

 We ate Japanese cake with powdered green tea at Matsue History Museum. We could eat it with see the Matsue castle. It was great view. The name of Japanese cake I ate is Village of Gods, so cool and I felt Shimane spirits. After eating, our group went to sake-cellar. We tried 5 kinds of sake at there. I like sake than shochu, so I liked there. And then, we went to soba restaurant. We ate Izumo-soba. It taste was good. Moreover, soba-tea was so delicious! I favorited that so much! That trip was so fun! Matsue is so historical city. She has Japanese soul. I like Matsue so much!

BBQ

 In July 8^th, I did BBQ at Kaihin-park with member of tennis club. I did BBQ 5 days ago with other member in same place. I had a lot of BBQ with friends this year!

 I ate a lot to get fat! After eating, we went to beach and did handy fireworks. I like Senko-firework, it has beautiful Japanese flavor. After that, we lied on the beach and watched the sky. It was so great fine day, no clouds sky, so we could watch many many stars. I was absorbed in watching stars like a stargazer, but I don’t know configuration a lot. That view was so beautiful. After stargazing, we went to sleep, but camping place had amount number of mosquito. So, I could not have good sleep at that night :(

 In the next morning, we went to beach again to swim, but I cannot swim. We did crack-watermelon, it was so fun. This watermelon was so sweet.  I like that. I look forward to participate in tennis club BBQ next year!

SNAIL

 I drew this picture with mechanical pencil as C-Artis’s June theme. June’s theme was “Tsu-yu (the rainy season)”. This is snail. I hate snail because it is so slow and ugly. The most important reason is that they eat hydrangeas! I like this flower! This picture expressed my angry soul for snail.

Korpiklaani's poster

I got Korpiklaani's poster!

BBQ

　In July 3^rd, I did BBQ at Kaihin-park with my superiors and my underclassmen. This group is astronomical observation club, but I don’t belong to this club. My familiar superiors belong to this club, so I was invited to this BBQ. There were only seniors or juniors for me. There was no one that same age with me. It was my first meeting to juniors. It was so strange for me, and I was so fun!

 In that day, I took part in the Hamada open, a tennis competition, at Kaihin-park in the morning. That was single tennis game. I lost a first game. Almost of University Of Shimane’s player lost a first game. We finished all games early. So, we went to Joyful, a restaurant, to eat lunch. And then my superior M and I went to Kaihin-park again to meet astronomical observation club’s member.

 My superior M and I played tennis in that morning, so we eat meat a lot. Eating meat was so good taste after exercise.

 After the BBQ, we did handy fireworks. I haven’t done it a long time, so I was so excited! That was so fun, especially rocket firework was best! It was so thrilling, but very good!

 That BBQ was so nice! It was good member. I want to joy with same member.

Safari park

 In June 25^th, my friends and I went to safari park in Yamaguchi. It was first experience in my life.

We went to Safari Land. We can enter by our own car, not only safari park’s bus. So, we entered our car. We saw many animals without fence, but we were prohibited open the window to see animals. We saw animals through the window. However, it was enough. We felt enough thrill! We saw elephant, water buffalo, zebra, bison, cheetah, tiger, lion and so on. Lion was cool, but almost of them lay down. Tiger was so cool! It was my favorite animal in that park!

After that, we got down car and saw the animals like a zoo. We saw white tiger! It was so cool and beautiful. Moreover, we saw lesser panda, it was so pretty! It looks like stuffed animal. We played with common squirrel monkey. It was so fun.

 I like animals, so safari park was very fun!

Akiyoshi-dou

 In June 25^th, my friends and I went to Akiyoshi-dou (Shuho-dou). It is limestone cavern. I have been to there when I was 12 years old, but I can’t remember clearly about that. So, I was so excited.

 We entered the cavern by elevator. It was not the front entrance, so we walked toward both entrance and exit. It was so cold. Temperature of cavern was 17℃. That cavern was like a natural air conditioner. We all wore short sleeves, so we felt cold.

 The view of limestone cavern inside was so mysterious. I like to see the mineral like a amethyst or crystal. So, I excited to see the stalactite! It was so beautiful! The views were beautiful not only inside but also outside the cavern. The entrance of cavern was big and there were so many green leaves and moss. Especially, moss is so beautiful!! I like the stone covered with moss. I think it is Japanese beauty.

 I loved there! It is my favorite healing spot!

Akiyoshi-dai

 In June 25^th, I went to Yamaguchi with my friends by my friend’s car. It was so good sunny morning. First, we went to Akiyoshi-dai. It is karsts. It was so beautiful view!

 We arrived Akiyoshi-dai, we saw green, green, green, green views! Grass was so grown because it was summer! And we could see beautiful green grasses and leaves. There were some flowers. It was so good. We shouted “yahho” against the karsts mountain. We could hear echoes of our voice! It was so fun and excited!

 Akiyoshi-dai’s view was so beautiful. We feel that we were in grassland of Europe. It is so great place! I want to go there once again. Please visit there.

My home at Ehime

 In June 18^th, my superiors and I leave from Osaka to Ehime in order to my homecoming. We went to Ministop, a convenience store, at Ogo in Hyogo. We ate parfait.  It was so good. And then, our car drove on Seto-Big-Bridge!

 We arrived at Ehime just noon. I left my superiors and met my family and my uncle. I met my uncle after an interval of 3 years. We ate dinner together at my home. After that, my family celebrated my birthday. My birthday was June 16^th, so my mother prepared birthday cake and my sister prepared other sweets. I was very happy. That was excellent birthday present! Thank you my family!
