Arita porcelain plate

[Review]

​

Hisako Yoshizawa is a painter who confronts painters with problems that cannot be easily corrected in paintings that use paper as a support.
In addition to the purely visual effect of color, she emphasizes various elements in her work. In "Cape", lines and stripes are drawn with a limited number of colors, showing structural and formal features.
On the other hand, "Arita porcelain plate" expresses watercolor painting in realistic characteristics.
Fragrant flowers, rendered in harmonious colors, lie loosely on a plate of fruit.
The skillful color scheme and the lively rendition of light and shadow gave the viewer a sculptural impression and accentuated the bright exterior of this still life painting.
Hisako Yoshizawa's artistic ability is reflected in the details of expression, such as the decoration of the plate and the flowers in full bloom, and presents the state of contemporary watercolor painting.
