We welcome your comments!

Hello☀

Today, to all of you who have always taken care of me and supported me

I would like to ask you a few questions.

Are there any recent works by Takuma Tanaka that you are interested in or are you considering purchasing?

Are there any works by Takuma Tanaka that you are interested in or are you considering purchasing?

Also, what attracted you to it?

We are looking forward to hearing from you!

We have recently received many new customers from Mercari, but we would like to hear your opinions and impressions directly from you.

But I haven't had a chance to meet them directly and get their opinions and impressions.

It is difficult for me to contact them.

or "It's my first purchase, and I don't want to make a request...".

We feel that many customers are hesitant to contact us by phone or through our official line.

However, it is our customers' honest opinions that are essential to us.

There are many viewpoints that we cannot notice from the side of the painter or the donor.

We are always happy to hear from our clients: "I want a painting like this," "I love this part of this painting," and so on.

Such words are the most energizing for us!

We would be very grateful if you could lend us your help.

Regardless of the above comments and requests, we are always happy to hear from you.

We can explain to you how to manage and decorate your paintings, as well as information about our studio.

We can explain to you how to manage your paintings, how to decorate them, information about our studio, etc.

flower gift🌸

In this issue, I would like to talk about "floral gifts.

Buying a painting for yourself is a wonderful purchase, but I think that the culture of "giving a painting" to a loved one should be more common. Even those who are not good at writing letters can borrow the story or title of a painting to send their feelings or words. Or, just like choosing individual flowers for a bouquet, the pictures can be customized to match the image of the person to whom they are sent.

Instead of a bouquet of flowers, you can give your loved one a work of art that will never wither, no matter how many years pass....

If you are looking for a gift other than a bouquet that is as beautiful as a bouquet of flowers, please visit Takuma Tanaka Studio.

We are always looking forward to hearing from you. We can also mail them to you.

Those who understand will understand.

Good afternoon.

Today I would like to talk about the cost of art materials, something I have not talked about much until now. I would like to talk about the cost of art materials, something I haven't talked about much until now.

You're using cheap paints, aren't you?"

These were the words of someone who saw one of Tanaka's paintings around 2008. As an amateur, I was very surprised when I heard that. I had a vague idea that the paints used by the artist must be expensive, but I immediately felt that I had "underestimated..." the world where one can tell the quality of the paints just by looking at a painting.

After receiving these words, Tanaka changed his mind about buying paints, but the cost of art materials was mounting, and having too much in stock was also dangerous. Not only paints, but also frames and brushes can affect the quality of a work and the impression it makes when displayed, so "painting is really expensive," he says. You can't afford to make mistakes, and even if you paint a lot, if you don't sell it, you won't be able to make another one. It is very difficult to find a suitable frame, so I try to sell frames as a set, which makes my customers very happy, but good frames are expensive, so I have to sell them at a higher price.

Being on the side of the art world that looks at paintings, I had a sense of respect for him, but I also had a nasty thought that he must be making a lot of money if he could sell such expensive paintings, or that there must be people who paint to make money. Hearing his words, I felt ashamed of my previous thoughts. As a matter of course, he uses good materials, carefully selects a frame that fits the painting as a matter of course, takes the time and effort to install that frame, and then pours more feeling, time, and effort into it to finally create a single work of art. Considering this process, the painting that I had thought was too expensive to buy was probably too inexpensive. It made me realize how important it is to "paint a picture.

To "paint a picture" means not only to tell a story, but also to tell the story of the artist's thoughts and feelings. It is not only about the thoughts and story behind the painting, but there is something more that must not be forgotten. Before and during the act of painting, there are countless detailed "preparations" and trial and error. Just as one begins to build a healthy body by knowing what ingredients are contained in the food one eats, we can enjoy a painting more if we know what materials are used and what processes are involved in creating a painting that we like. It will increase the excitement of the painting when you receive it and hang it on your wall.

I became a captive of the world of art.

My respect for the artist has also increased.

When you buy a painting, please ask about the painting materials.

survival match ‼

June 8 ㈯~June 9 ㈰ at Takuma Tanaka Studio

Takuma Tanaka will hold an exhibition titled "Survival Match" at his studio. Depending on which way things go, the prices of future works may change. It is an important battle to see if we can overcome this situation and make 100 times the return, or if the future of the people who buy our works may depend on it.

I sometimes think that expression and art are "raw materials". I think there is a kind of vibrancy that cannot be conveyed through a screen or on a document. There is always a story that can only be felt by seeing the texture and three-dimensionality in front of your eyes." SNS and science and technology are advancing. We can feel the real thing from a screen, and even if we don't meet the person, we can feel close to him or her. However, the art created by human hands, and the impression created between people that exists only in the here and now, in that moment, in that space, is what is important. Don't miss this encounter. Witness a work of art that will be deeply etched in the history of the art world.

-There is a picture that can only be painted under these circumstances.

We are sincerely looking forward to seeing you all at the exhibition.

Challenging European Online Auctions

Hello, my name is Takuma Tanaka. I am currently entering an auction in Europe. Since the yen is weak in Japan today, I was looking for a way to export my products overseas. As a result, I decided to try again, as I had tried before to be able to casually put my items up for auction overseas. We will let you know as soon as we receive further information.

Hello, this is Fukutomi, a staff member of Takuma Tanaka Studio!

How are you doing in the real cold weather?

This time, we would like to inform you that we have just finished our collaborative work on bags (^^)

It's a collaboration of bags...! ✨

I met Katsuyuki Tanaka at the "End of the Century Alchemy Exhibition" held at the OIOI Men's Pavilion at the end of the year. He usually sells hand-sewn bags in Hokkaido and had a limited store next door at the same time.

They were all leather bags of very good quality (^^).

We also have a link to Katsuyuki's store at the end of this blog♪

The bag is one-of-a-kind, with an abstract painting of Takuma Tanaka's unique design ✨.

These bags are also available for sale.

This was the first time for Takuma Tanaka Studio to collaborate on such a bag, and it turned out to be a very fun collaboration!

We hope to continue this kind of collaborative activity in the future with all of us at Takuma Tanaka Studio! (^^)

アートで花をプレゼントに  Present for you!

こんにちは。

スタッフの福冨です。

お世話になっております。

早いもので2月になりました。

田中拓馬は毎日、絵を描いて頑張っていますが今日、田中から初めて聞いたことがあります。

それは田中が浦和高校時代に授業で美術を専攻していたらしいのです。

それで周りから植物の絵を描くように勧められて花の絵も描いていたというのです。

一般的に田中拓馬の絵は半抽象画が多くてそんな画風に人気が集まります。

しかし花の絵は一見すると田中拓馬の作品と分からないくらいで本人も自身を持って得意としているのです。

そんな田中拓馬ですが過去にお付き合いしていた女性がいて、その女性が花屋さんで働いていて花を愛していたということなのです。

だから花は田中拓馬にとっても大事な存在で特別なものなのでしょう。

そんな田中拓馬が描いた花の絵を大切な人に贈りませんか?

散りも枯れもしないブリザードフラワーのように花の絵は残ります。

バレンタインデーやホワイトデーにプレゼントとして贈るのもいいでしょう。

また誕生日のプレゼントにするのもいいのではないでしょうか!

あなたの大切な人に!

Hello.

I am Hukudomi, a staff member.

Thank you for your kind attention.

February has come early.

Takuma Tanaka has been working hard drawing pictures every day, but today I heard something for the first time from Tanaka.

It seems that Tanaka majored in art in his class at Urawa High School.

He was encouraged by his peers to draw pictures of plants, so he also drew pictures of flowers.

Generally, most of Takuma Tanaka's paintings are semi-abstract and his style is popular.

However, his flower paintings are so distinctive that they are not recognizable as Tanaka Takuma's works at first glance, and he himself is proud of them.

He has been in a relationship with a woman in the past, who worked at a flower shop and loved flowers.

Therefore, flowers must be very important and special to Tanaka Takuma.

Why don't you send such a flower painting by Takuma Tanaka to your loved one?

Like a blizzard flower that never disperses or withers, a picture of a flower will remain.

It would be a good idea to give them as a gift on Valentine's Day or White Day.

It would also be a good idea to give it as a birthday present!

For your loved ones!

Number of works by painters

Number of works by painters

Good evening.

This is the Takuma Tanaka Studio.

 

This time I would like to touch on the number of works painted by painters.

First of all, a famous painter with a large number of works is Picasso, who painted more than 10,000 works of art alone.

On the other hand, a painter with a small number of works is Vermeer, who painted more than 30 works (although there is a theory that he painted more).

In this connection, we focus on Takuma Tanaka.

Takuma Tanaka has painted and sold about 2,500 works so far, including those from his street days.

Furthermore, Takuma Tanaka discards his paintings when he is not satisfied with them.

If the number of such works is included, the number of works would be around 3,000.

This is a large number for an artist of his age (46).

Of these, the number of works that are still in the public domain (I don't know what happened to the works from his street days) is probably around 1,500.

Tanaka usually gets up at around 5am to devote his time to creative work.

Tanaka's brushes run quickly, so his works are also completed quickly.

In this way, how many works will Takuma Tanaka paint in his lifetime?

I hope he continues to paint 4,000 or 5,000 more works.

 

画家の作品点数

こんばんは。

田中拓馬スタジオです。

 

今回は画家の描く作品数などに触れてみたいと思います。

まず有名な画家で作品数の多い画家では、ピカソで絵画だけで1万点以上の作品を描いています。

また、反対に作品数の少ない画家ではフェルメールの30数点(一説によるともっと描いていたという説がありますが)が挙げられます。

このことに関して田中拓馬に焦点をあててみました。

田中拓馬は今まで描いて売ってきた作品は路上時代を入れると2500点位になります。

さらに、田中拓馬は絵を描いて自分で納得がいかないとその作品を廃棄してしまいます。

その作品の数を入れると作品数は3000点くらいになると思います。

これは画家の年齢(46才)にしたら作品数は多い方だと思います。

この内、今でも公にお客様が持っておられる(路上時代の作品はどうなっているかわからない)作品は1500点くらいでしょうか。

普段、田中は朝5時頃から起きて創作活動に時間をさいています。

田中は筆の走りも早いので作品が出来上がるのも早いです。

このように考えると、田中拓馬は生涯どのくらいの数の作品を描くのでしょうか。

さらに4000点、5000点と描き続けてほしいです。
