【The spring has come around】 Mar, 2017 Oil painting on canvas 15F 53.0×65.2cm LaKhan |
"The spring has come around" in satoyama ,Ranzan Town ,Hiki District, Saitama Pref. On Mar 24, 2017 , I visited satoyama behind the farmers' market of Ranzan Town together with my wife and grand daughter "Beni" of 3 years old who was very glad picking up acorns. I had visited this place last two years before and drawn a sketch by charcoal along the lane. This time I visited here to draw the same angle by oil painting, however two years abscence had changed the landscape a little, the woods along the valley side had been cut making the scenery unbalanced. So, I climbed up a little from the lane to draw the scenery commanding the farm fields and confronting satoyama seen throguh the deciduous woods. I again visited here on the next day of Mar 25 and completed this picture.
