Isamu Hayashi - Ohayō (お早よう), 1959.

The first attempt was too small. I closed it, took a bigger sheet, and started again.

The first one wasn't wasted - it was part of finding him.

Graphite on toned paper.

This is Isamu from japanese comedy called “Ohayo”. The full artwork will be released soon.
It’s my second attempt of drawing Isamu, the first one was too small and it was hard to draw a child’s face with all emotions in small size.
I will appreciate all your critique and support.

A film about lesbian nuns in 1950s Japan? Look no further than this year’s BFI Flare festival.

‘Impure Nuns’ is a cheap flick from Japan’s Shin-Tōhō studio. Released in 1958 it tells the story of a young Catholic woman who enters a convent after a rape & abortion. Some years on, after becoming a model nun, she is seduced by a wild young novice and her life unravels.

The film is mad, camp as hell, disturbing in its treatment of rape; but at times beautiful and romantic. It bombed on release as it wasn’t sexually explicit enough for its intended male audience but was too obviously intended as semi-porn to be remarketed to women (they did try).

The director was Michiyoshi Doi and it starred Miyuki Takakura as Sister Eri and Mayumi Ōzora as the young novice Anna. The two leads are excellent.

Today I’d like to share a film
I watched at the end of last year that has stayed with me.

“There’s nothing interesting about my everyday life…”
“I’m probably no good anyway…”

For those kinds of days, when such thoughts quietly creep in,
this film gently nudges you forward.

The Everyday Life of a Tokyo Toilet Cleaner in the World’s Cleanest Country

Samurai Fiction slaps. Black & white visuals, bursts of color, jazz-rock soundtrack, and Hotei as the sword-stealing villain. Style for days, blood with bite, ninjas flipping like popcorn. It’s part homage, part parody, all cool.
