A painting inspired by the song, "Sukiyaki", or "Looking up as I walk"

 Years ago, a Jp song called Sukiyaki (Ue o muite aruko, or Looking up as I walk) hit music chart in the world. Though the original lyric is kinda sad, the tune is up beat and light. Non-Jp speakers around the world were attracted by the tune, I think. So, here too,  my painting is inspired by the tune more than the lyric, though there are some elements from it.

「上を向いて歩こう」の歌詞にヒントを得てこの絵を描きました。涙をこぼさないように手の平から天に向かっていく姿にして見ました。希望の象徴である虹の一部を悲しみを堪えて歩いている男の人に届けようとしています。
