Examining the magical watercolors of a Japanese artist Juri Ueda, I absolutely do not want to talk. It's somehow awkward to shake the air with words or even sighs, looking at this delicate, almost transparent beauty. The paintings that this talented girl creates belong to the category of those works that inspire, give a smile and the desire to immediately embrace the whole world and shower it with kisses. And who knows what the magic of these watercolors lies in: either in a skillful combination of colors and shades, or in naive, slightly childish characters and images, or maybe this is a part of the artist's aura that makes her paintings so perfect? No, these big-eyed pretty girls and their fantastic companions are simply impossible to tear yourself away from. As they say, appetite comes with eating, and Yuri's bright, but exceptionally soft watercolors want to eat with his eyes, absorb their kindness and tenderness in the hope that peace and tranquility will settle in his soul, and love and warmth in his heart, warming the whole body. What would be useful this cool spring.
Someone, perhaps, twists his nose, they say, the Japanese are immediately visible, everywhere they with their anime eyes are promoting themselves. But there is nothing more positive and "smiling" than this trusting, naive look of wide-open children's eyes, in which the sky is reflected. In addition, other features of exclusively Japanese graphics are inherent in Yuri's watercolors: sakura flowers, traditional clothes, small fish, characteristic images of cats, and, by and large, the technique of drawing with watercolors gives out a hereditary Japanese woman in the author of the paintings. Even though she studied in San Francisco. True, the girl lives and works in the Japanese city of Osaka, where her exhibitions are held, both solo and with the participation of colleagues.
It is a pity that the publication format does not allow all the pictures painted by Yuri to be posted here. But you can always visit her personal page to plunge into this wonderful fairy-tale world of goodness, beauty and childhood.
