I also believe that facing a person's \"face\" head-on is like a mirror that reflects one's current situation.

The clear gradation and accumulation of linear strokes appear like reflected light or a dazzling moment of light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e I search for a sense of floating in my swift brushstrokes, and by going back and forth between looking and painting, I become immersed in the experience of painting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e The time and feeling felt like it went by in a flash.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Something that will eventually be buried.
