Takayoshi Ueda

Painteing & CG work

★ Digital art work named “digilo-graphy

★ Oil & Acrylic painting, Collage, Mixed media

Statement

The mental environment that physical side and person's minds create is included in it.

Basic concept is important thought of Buddhism that environment and human cannot

be separated.

The theme is consistent though I am producing in various techniques like the painting,

CG, and the collage, etc.

※ About digilo-graphy

Based on the data I make by scanning my own analog paintings such
as drawings, collage, monotype and mixed media, I create one work through
the computer.
My works travel freely from anolog to digital paintings and integrate various
drawing media to one work : I don't use my analog paintings on the computer
for the purpose of creating mock images. I respect each characteristics of
the analog paintings and when processing on the computer, I leave their
material feelings and textures as traces.
This computer process enables me to create unique paintings with mingled
colors and complicated textures, which is inexpressible only by analog paintings.
For the final output, I select the most suitable media for the data out of
various printing paper, Japanese paper, watercolor paper, and canvases,
then print with a full-sized pigment-based inkjet printer
