【Artwork Details】
Tiger in myself
Awaken the tiger in my heart
and draw a tiger
When the tiger inside me wakes up
you will be able to feel the
tiger's skeleton and
direction of the hair tips.
A tiger's facial expression changes
with a single wrinkle on its face
and its body balance changes
with a single claw orientation
By becoming a tiger yourself
its existence will become
more animated
The tiger's spirit is my own spirit
and how much spirit I can put
in one stroke of the brush
is the tiger's ambition
I draw a tiger with my tongue out
and my face crumpled
but sometimes my heart loses
to the tiger
If I lose, the tiger will not
be completed
You can challenge a tiger
with all the power you have now
and only when you become a tiger
you complete it
When I put everything in to it
I had to be in a state of
absentmindedness for a while
Later, while looking at the tiger I drew
"I am impressed with myself
who was able to draw beautiful
tiger like this."
I feel like someone finished
this beautiful artwork
This tiger is about myself
in the future
Every time I drew a tiger
I thought that I made the best work
in the history of Shukou Tsuchiya
Among them
this tiger is a best of best
