From the Fang Lu battle at the end of Water Margin. Zhang Jun, the chief of the navy, is trying to break through the castle’s floodgates. The sharp eyes, muscular body, and carvings all over the body convey the ferocity. In the original story, #Kuniyoshi portrays Zhang Jun, who dies in battle, as a hero who has broken through the gate.

Making good progress on my next woodblock print - a copy of a little known print by Ikeda Taishin. The key block is carved, so I'm now working on the colour blocks.

The rain in *Night Rain at Karasaki* falls in delicate, parallel strokes, dissolving the pine’s silhouette into the mist. This evanescent touch suggests nature’s fleeting presence, not just as scenery but as a living force.

How does the contrast between the pine’s solid form and the rain’s dissolving lines shape the mood of the scene?

Gongsun Sheng making a magical gesture, Utagawa Kuniyoshi

I love the energy in his expression. It's interesting to me because these old Ukiyo-E prints aren't meant to be realistic, or they didn't hold realism up as a necessary quality, and yet there is enough there that it feels really consistent. In some of them the design is almost abstract and it takes me a while to figure out what is meant to be happening. In this one there is so much billowing fabric that I had no idea what his feet were doing at first, I think I have it now.

Look at that face. He's hunched up and squirming, so powerful are the forces in play 😁
