[Poetry of Masterpieces] Buddy ~From Caillebotte's 'Richard Gallo and his dog Dick, in Petit Gennevilliers'~

Come on, follow me.
Instead of staying in a dark room with a frown,
let's go for a walk.
Along the sunny riverside.
Rustling, the wind is calling.
Sparkling, the water's surface is singing.
See? You can hear it too, right?

Being human is tough, isn't it?
Always worrying about things.
Let's keep it simple, like me.

Go or don't go.
Fun or boring.
Do or don't do.
Like or dislike.

Just divide it into two buttons,
and press one of them.

Don't worry.
Even if a pack of wolves attacks you
trying to hurt you,

I will definitely be on your side.
I will always love you!

"Artistic Anatomy" sounds interesting!

Do you like dogs? Do you like cats?
It's an eternal theme, isn't it?
Aside from simple likes and dislikes, how about as a motif in painting?
Previously, at the Yamatane Museum of Art, such a special exhibition was held.

(⬆️It has already ended. Too bad! I wanted to go see it~💦)

For example, when you try to "draw a picture of a dog."
Running. Jumping. Doing various poses.
By accurately grasping the movement of the skeleton and muscles at that time, you can create a more realistic and persuasive work.

Dogs and cats have different structures to begin with.
Naturally, the pictures drawn should also be different.
No. If they aren't different, it might not look like a dog, and people might wonder if it's a cat. It might become such a subtle picture.

Therefore,properly understanding the anatomical structure deeply and reflecting it in works of art such as paintings.
That is"Artistic Anatomy."

The history is old, dating back to the Renaissance. Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo achieved surprisingly realistic human depictions through the study of anatomy.
Indeed, the Statue of David is a showcase of muscles.

Artistic Anatomy. In modern times, it is utilized in various other fields.
For example, "creatures" that do not exist in reality that appear in the world of fantasy.
When creating these creatures in video works such as movies and games.
For example, if the setting is a "feline creature," you base it on its anatomical foundation.
By doing so, you can express more realistic appearances and movements.
I see!

That's interesting.
I write fantasy novels. I also have fictional creatures popping up all the time.
A golden hard-boiled loach.
A shocking pink, flamboyant mouse.
Four macho giant swans. And so on.
Oops, I haven't been writing while considering anatomy.

By the way, what is 'artistic anatomy' like for those who paint?
On one hand, it is useful for drawing.
On the other hand, it seems like a hellish discipline that has no end, no matter how much you study it.

Famous for his ukiyo-e, Katsushika Hokusai. It is said that even in his later years, after he had established his fame, he lamented,
'I cannot even draw a single cat properly.'

That is what a genius is like. It was an anecdote that made me feel that way.
