Sketch memories of your trip and fun memories along with delicious food
Why don't you feel free to sketch and record your memories and everyday life with pictures?
This class is an online sketching course [drawing a picture of a food or cafe atmosphere using a pen and watercolor materials].
“I have a longing for cafe sketches, etc., but I can't take the first step”
“Even if I gathered my courage and started, it didn't go well and I was disappointed because it wasn't my ideal image.”
There may also be people who have experienced such things.
In this class, the content is such that even beginners can take steps step by step and sketch “in my own way” while enjoying themselves improving little by little.
Beginners are fine too! A curriculum where you can grow step by step
In this class, you will draw pictures by sketching with a pen and coloring using watercolors.
The objects I draw gradually become more complicated, from small ones to larger motifs.
Finally, I'll also introduce the process of drawing in an actual cafe. I will carefully tell you the points to keep in mind when sketching at cafes, how far and what to do, and tips that are useful in practice.
Learn tips for drawing deliciously in the atmosphere of the store
In class, “One plate lunch drawn on a trip” and “Let's draw at a cafe! In the double feature of the “Sweets Set”, we will practice drawing delicious meals and cafe sweets.
I will also tell you the basic way of thinking about sketching, such as what to draw from among so many things, how to take a composition that makes use of the space on the screen, and how to add light and shadow, etc., so please make use of that knowledge and incorporate it into your own paintings!
Keep drawing while having fun, and eventually arrive at a picture that is unique to you
This is a watercolor painting class aimed at becoming a “foundation” for those who want to make painting a hobby.
It's fine even if you're not good at drawing, or if you've given up on drawing. It's not all about drawing well, but it would be great if you could draw in your own way and record with delicious flavors.
If you follow the curriculum one by one, you'll be asked “I want to draw!” You'll be able to find lots of small hints that will add to that pure feeling.
Don't you think it's wonderful to draw delicious things and fun memories you'll encounter on a trip smoothly?
Try drawing pictures as a fun time just for yourself, where you can enjoy between work, between housework, or forgetting about everyday life.
The very time you draw pictures should enrich your everyday life.

[Creator Interview]
Q. How did you start painting watercolors?
A. I love drawing pictures and making things, and I think it's wonderful to draw delicious things and fun memories that I encounter on a trip in a smooth and rough way, so I come across this technique, and I draw my work as a fun time for myself, in between jobs or for a few hours before going to bed while looking back on my day at night.
Q. Please give a message to the students!
A. Drawing a picture or creating something from scratch is wonderful, isn't it? However, not only is it fun, it also involves steady day-to-day accumulation and hardship. Including those, I sincerely look forward to meeting all of you in this class so that it will be a wonderful experience that will color my life for everyone who can join me in this class and for me too!
