「北鎌倉個展を終えて」
昨日北鎌倉個展「天国に至る道」が終了した。
三日目に他の用事(カトリック美術展)で一日休んだが、六日間在廊して頑張った。
店番代走をオーナーに一日だけ頼んだわけだが、七日間を無事走り抜けた。
最終日三日間には、店の外で人物デッサンイベントをゲリラ的に行い、通りすがりのお客様の好評を集めた。
そのお絵かきパフォーマンス中に、ギャラリーからの風景やアジサイや鉢植え、会期中に来たお客様から頂いた「グアダルーペの聖母像(メキシコのマリア様)」もスケッチした。
このギャラリーは私の先祖の源氏ゆかりの土地にあり、「亀ヶ谷坂(かめがやつざか)」のすぐそばにある。
それも前世からの縁を今世に受けた徴(しるし)と言えるだろう。
絵を観て頂くのに加えて様々な出会いがあった。
様々な貴重な話があった。
そして様々な大切な縁ができた。
お天気も1日だけ午前中が土砂降りとなったが、あとは晴天続きで、初夏の陽気の素晴らしい日々であった。
絵もサービス品のコピー絵を含めて、総計24点売れた。
かかった経費分以上に財布も膨らみ、お金の面でも満足の展覧会となったのである。
心も体もお金も、人との繋がりも、とても充実した展覧会となった。
そして私の個展に来た人々は、私の門を通過していったので、命ある現世から天の国へと必ず誘われることだと思う。
"After the Kita-Kamakura solo exhibition"
Yesterday, Kita-Kamakura's solo exhibition "The Road to Heaven" was completed.
On the third day, I took a day off for another errand (Catholic art exhibition), but I stayed in the hall for six days and did my best.
I asked the owner for a pinch runner for only one day, but I ran for seven days safely.
During the final three days, a guerrilla-like person drawing event was held outside the store, which was well received by passing customers.
During the drawing performance, I sketched the scenery from the gallery, hydrangea and potted plants, and the "Our Lady of Guadalupe (Maria, Mexico)" received from a customer who came during the exhibition.
This gallery is located in the land related to my ancestor Genji, right next to "Kamegayatsuzaka".
It can be said that it is a sign that this world has received a connection from the previous life.
In addition to seeing the paintings, I had various encounters.
There were various valuable stories.
And various important ties were made.
The weather was pouring in the morning for only one day, but the rest of the day was sunny and the days were wonderful and cheerful in early summer.
A total of 24 paintings were sold, including copy paintings of service items.
2 guerrilla-like drawings were also sold.
The wallet swelled more than the cost, and the exhibition was satisfying in terms of money.
The exhibition was very fulfilling in terms of mind, body, money, and connections with people.
And since the people who came to my solo exhibition passed through my gate, I think that they are sure to be invited to the kingdom of heaven from this living world.
