【京都個展、前日】

今日は搬入日。

今から新幹線に乗っていざゆかん京都！です。

画像は今朝まで描いていた、出来たてほやほやの新作「バッカス」。

酒飲みはご存知、ローマ神話に登場するお酒の神様です。豊穣とブドウ酒、そして酩酊と狂乱の神でもあります。豹、虎、牡山羊などを聖獣とし、葡萄や酒杯、豊穣の角などが象徴として挙げられます。

次の一杯を狙っている豹の姿はまるで自分の姿を見ているかのよう…搬入が終わった後のお疲れの一杯がいっぱいにならないように気をつけたいと思います😅🍷

【Kyoto solo exhibition, day before】

My solo exhibition opens tomorrow.

I’m looking forward to seeing you there!

This image is my new work, "Bacchus", which I had been working on until this morning.

Bacchus is the god of drinking in Roman mythology. He is the god of fertility and wine, as well as drunkenness and madness. The leopard, tiger and male goat are his sacred beasts, and his symbols include grapes, drinking cups and fertility horns.

The leopard's eyes looking for the next drink are like watching myself... I'll be careful not to fill up on a tired drink after the work😅🍷.

"Starting from Scratch" That was the theme of the October @upcrate box and I finally came around to do this. It's such a different way of working/drawing, but so fun to do it again after some time. I never scratched on a surface before that I prepared myself. However, I really like how you can delute the black ink and play with the different greys and scratch on top. I love the @ampersand_art scratchboards or this time clayboards for this type of art. As a motif I chose this Christmas Wild West scenery greatly inspired by a painting by Jack Sorenson @jacksorensonfineart I found on Pinterest. It's fits also the prompts of October 'Wild West' and November 'Black and White' of @kreativ_im_zwergenheim #monthlyartchallenge #inspire_create_crew. . . . . . . #upcrate38 #upcrate #upcratebattle #drawing #inkdrawing #scratchboard #artistsoninstagram #instaartist #instaart #germanart #germanartist #scratching #blackandwhiteart #blackandwhite #blackwhite #inking #scratchart #scratchboardart (hier: Potsdam, Germany) https://www.instagram.com/p/Clmo5QkNwJj/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

【京都個展まであと９日】

あまりの暑さに火傷しそうな今日この頃、個展までの日数も少なくお尻に火がついてきました…！

さて、新作「アヌビス」のご紹介です。

アヌビスはエジプトの神話に登場する冥界の神のことです。死者の眠りと未来を守り、狼のような犬科の頭部を持つ半獣、もしくは狼そのものの姿をしていると云われています。太陽神ラーの天秤を持って死者の罪を量る役割を持ちます。

本作では中央に黒狼を、背景にはヒエログリフ（古代エジプトの象形文字）でアヌビスという存在を象徴的に描いています。金箔で描いた天秤には、向かって左手に死者の心臓が入った壺を、右手には真理の象徴とされるマアトの羽根を乗せています。

いずれ迎える審判の時までに、羽根より罪の軽い心を持てるのか…悩ましいところです😅

【Only 9 days to go until my solo exhibition in Kyoto!】

It's so hot today that I feel like I'm going to get burned, and my butt is on fire, this japanese idiom means to be a tight corner, with only a few days left until my solo exhibition...!

Now, I would like to introduce my new work "Anubis".

Anubis is the god of the underworld in Egyptian mythology. He protects the sleep and future of the dead and is said to be a half-breed with a canine head like a wolf, or a wolf itself. He holds the balance of Ra, the sun god, and weighs the sins of the dead.

In this work, the black wolf in the center and the hieroglyphs in the background symbolically refer to Anubis. The balance, painted in gold leaf, holds in its left hand a vase containing the heart of the dead, and in its right hand the feather of Maat, the symbol of truth.

It is a question of whether one can have a heart lighter in sin than the feather by the time of the judgment that will eventually come 😅.

•Starting off the new year with a new(ish) medium for me. I visibly improved greatly with each new illustration. It was very fun! I've only used scratch cards a couple times in my life, but now I have a whole pack! •I want to thank Jorja for getting these for me for my birthday 🤍 Definitely my favorite bday present! •And I want to thank Nick for providing me with reference photos because I didn't know what to draw. •I've never drawn these animals before and I was very intimidated, but love how these turned out! •Maybe this is a sign for us all to try something outside of our comfort zone this year. . . #samlescreations #illustration #sketch #scratchart #rainbow #tarsier #sugarglider #comfortzone https://www.instagram.com/p/Cm5J0sBOTfQ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
