When life throws challenges, some people turn it into opportunities and come out as winners! I got a challenge to complete a wall art for the biggest mall in Rajasthan located in Udaipur in 8 days. Fearing the challenge, my team-mate left leaving me with one man less. and me took up the challenge to complete it and it turned out to be the indias largest indoor wall art painting! #udaipurstreetart #artforall #publicart #artistsoninstagram #bollywoodcafeleh #bollywood #bollywoodart #ranbirkapoor #kappor #bollywoodartist #worldrecordofindia #mumbaiurbanartfestival #bollywoodmovies #streetartindia #leh #Ladakh #pune #travelart #rajsthan #udaipur #urbansquare #mall #bollywoodartproject #mumbai #film #nileshartist (at Udaipur, Rajasthan) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cpsj1RnsCJs/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#but why do i imagine saseki doing this and then hitting yuichi up like#“^_^ i proposed the idea to them and simply explained our reasoning and they accepted! yay!” as if he didnt storm in there like that HAHA

@kowaindar0u

"Yuichi~! Look!"

Saseki, coming out from an ominous Kebiishi-like cloud of time pocket, surrounded by a soft rain of Sakura Fubuki, shows him a certified agreement of tandem collaboration of honmaru defense and operation between "Lord Harumasa and Lord Kitawaki".

"They signed it~"

Barely did he finish another piece of fruit, he felt a soft nudge from Yagen ("here you go Taishou-tachi ;3") as both saniwa were handed one for themselves. His mind sort of doing this brief pause, trying to process what was going on before the music starts, startling him out of his mild fog.

And then he just let out a hearty laugh. He should've expected this too, considering it's Midare. A few lines in, and suddenly he found himself surrounded by his three escorts. And his Nagasone was, evidently, just a bit too perky.

"Master don't be mad but both our Nagasone-san thought they should have their own enkai at the back earlier." Half-heartedly apologizing, because Kashuu partly did get into the fun, what with his left hand still holding his sake.

"Nah nah, this one's way better! C'mon Master let's join in! We can even do that right here just by ourselves too!"

And Saseki instantly grabbed him, even though he was flustered AND laughing by this second at their antics. "No nonono--don't do that right in the middle of the Toushirous performing you silly Captain you...!"

Conveniently, Izuminokami just waved along with everyone else, enjoying the performance and laughing at Nagasone's little antics. "Woooo!"

Truly, the visiting sage felt thoroughly welcomed with all the lovely feast and festivities, and at the corner of his eye he could spot a teasing ray of sunshine somewhere peeking out through the sky amidst the rain. Maybe, juuuust maybe, the heavens might give this honmaru a fox wedding (sunshower).

Eventually.

"I see..." Yuichi wonders, to himself of course, how long 'quite a long time' is, but he's satisfied enough to not ask. No matter the answer, it's certain to be much longer than Yuichi has been doing it. Even though it's been a year already, sometimes it still feels like he's in his first month. He and his citadel have grown a bit since then, but still.

"Oh-- of course. And, please, stay as long as you like. If there is any business you need to attend to, I've set up a space in my office for you just in case. I don't want to keep you away from your honmaru for too long, but that's you call to make. On my end, you and your touken danshi are welcome whenever, and for however long. Besides, I think they're having fun, and--"

It's then that a high, cheerful voice rings out at the covered stage at one end of the area.

"Hello everyone!!" Midare calls, a microphone clutched in his hand. To his left stand Honebami, Atsushi, Hirano, and Gokotai, and to his right stand Namazuo, Shinano, Maeda, and Akita. "To welcome our special guests--" Midare points to Saseki, and waves excitedly. "My brothers and I have prepared a performance! Yagen, Ichi-nii, if you don't mind?"

Yuichi watches curiously as the two addressed swords stand up, and produce from boxes several glowsticks in various colors, and begin passing them out. He'd known they had been planning a performance, but he had not been allowed to see any specifics ("it's a surprise, aruji!").

"Once everyone has their glowsticks we'll begin!" Midare explains. "During our songs we will show you how to wave them, and if everyone waves them together, it'll look really pretty!"

And, indeed, once everyone has their sticks, the music starts, and the performance ensues.

राजस्थानमधील हे सर्वात मोठे मॉल उदयपुर येथील अर्बन स्केअर मॉल. जितक मोठा हे मॉल तितकच मोठे येथील म्युरल पेंटिंग. तिथं काम करायचं म्हणजे खूप कष्टाचे , जिकरिचे आणितितकेच धोकादायक होते. मॉलच्या उद्दाटनाची गडबड त्यामुळे अवघ्या ७/८ दिवसात संपवाव लागले. अनुभव असा की ही भिंत बघून माझा पुण्यातील एक साथीदार निघूनही गेला. पण निवडलेला subject आवडती भिंत आणि सतत challang स्वीकारण्याच माझा आत्मविश्वास यामुळे सांगण्यास आनंद होतो की इथे केलेले दोन्ही म्यूरल पेंटिंग्जना world record ऑफ india तर्फे सन्मानित करण्यात आले. या कामामुळे नक्कीच कलेबद्दल कलाकारांबद्दल आत्मीयता व आदर निर्माण होईल ही आशा बाळगतो. या कामामध्ये मला ज्यांनी संधीदिली, ज्यांनी onsite मदत केली. व माझ्यासोबत असणारे सहकारी या सर्वांचा मी आभारी आहे. 🙏 Urban Scare Mall in Udaipur is the largest mall in Rajasthan. The bigger the mall, the bigger the mural painting here. Working there was very hard, challenging and equally dangerous. The opening ceremony of mall had to be completed this murals in just 7/8 days. The experience is that one of my friends from Pune left after seeing this wall. But the chosen subject is my favorite wall and my confidence to accept the constant challange makes me happy to say that both the mural paintings done here were honored with the world record of India. We hope that this work will surely create an affinity and respect for the artists towards art. Those who gave me opportunities in this work, those who helped me onsite. I am thankful to all my colleagues who are with me. 🙏 @urbansquareudaipur . Life mein sabse bada risk hota hai ... kabhi koi risk na lena….

Meanwhile in another honmaru development, our resident sharpshooter Mutsunokami just crashed from ingesting 5 shots worth of espresso in one of Nankaitarou's experiments :3

"I swear I thought I heard sensei said 5 shots in one cup jeez...!"

Kamisuwa Onsen, collected random infos

Back in March, a reader of this blog asked for a blog entry in the vein of previous "the look of..." features, but for Kamisuwa Onsen 上諏訪温泉. Sadly, there isn't much visual material available and the basic look of the 3 or less remaining Geisha boils down to: Yohatsu, Homongi, light-coloured Obiage, Otaiko Musubi, or the formal look: Tsubushi Shimada, Kurotomesode, red Obiage, Otaiko Musubi. So here, I present some collected random infos you might find interesting.

Kamisuwa Geisha, Setsubun 2014

Dances Kappore かっぽれ Takeda bushi 武田節 Kiso bushi 木曽節 Kohan bushi 湖畔節 Ina bushi 伊奈節 Shôchikubai 松竹梅 (performed in the new year season) Tsurukame 鶴亀 (performed at wedding receptions and birthdays) O-Suwa Takashi お諏訪節 Sukêto bushi スケート節 (Ice skating on lake Suwa) Kirigamine kouta 霧ヶ峰小唄 (ice skating) Onhashira kouta 御柱小唄 Suwa ondo 諏訪音頭 (about the beauty of Suwa throughout the seasons) Okaya kouta 岡谷小唄 (about the Okaya silk industry) Numbers 1930's ("early Showa period"): 200 Geisha in Kamisuwa 1958: 80 1960's: 300 2006: 3 History The first Hanamachi on lake Suwa developed in Nawatemachi 縄手町/畷町 in 1903 (renamed to Otemachi 大手町 in 1909). In the following years, a few Ryotei were established. In 1920, the area of Otemachi 1 and 2 chôme was designated as area for Geisha, so Okiya and Ryotei of the neighbouring Izumichô area 和泉町 were moved there. In the early Showa period (1920's/30's), Okiya that were formerly located in Hamamachi also moved to Otemachi. Kamisuwa had two kenban: Ote kenban 大手見番 and Koyanagi kenban 湖柳見番. In Shimosuwa 下諏訪, it seems kenban had no specific names. In Okaya 岡谷, there used to be another Koyanagi kenban 小柳見番 in the Honmachi area. In Chino 茅野, there were Miyagawa kenban 宮川見番 (current Miyagawacho area), and Eimei kenban 永明見番 (current Nakacho area). Before the around 1969/70, Geisha of these respective cities did not work in other cities. But with the decline of Geisha numbers, the Hanamachi in Okaya, Shimosuwa and Chino were no longer able to meet the demands of their customers, so it was allowed for Geisha from Kamisuwa to pad those numbers.

Chiyomaru 千代丸 in "Showa Meigiren", 1988 Daily life Geisha usually practiced their respective arts (such as Narimono, Nagauta, Kouta, dance) until 15:00, afterwards they went to the beauty parlour to get their hair done, put on makeup and change into work clothes. Ozashiki usually lasted for two hours. Style In the year 1935, Geisha still wore their natural hair instead of wigs, and their hairstyle changed, depending on rank and age. Hangyoku wore Momoware 桃割れ and Oshidori おしどり. Geisha under 26 years wore Yuiwata 結い綿 or Taka shimada 高島田, no info on Geisha between 26 and 30, Geisha aged 31 and above wore Geiko yui 芸こ結い, tsubushi (shimada?) つぶし, icho gaeshi 銀杏返, and yokai maki 夜会まき. Around 1955, most Geisha wore short hair or western updos on a daily base and used Nihongami wigs for work. Becoming Geiko Three mediators who acted as go-between of Okiya and families/volunteers worked in Kamisuwa. According to Manchiyo, who worked from 1930 to 44 in Otemachi, the daughters of poor farmers and travelling entertainers were sold to the Okiya for 15 yen. When the parents met with the Okiya, the length of the girl's service was decided. After becoming employed by the Okiya, the girls were doing "odd jobs", while taking lessons in Hanayagi-ryu dance, Shamisen and other arts. It's like Shikomi in Kyoto, although no specific term is named. When a Hangyoku was ready to become a Geisha, she had to prove her skills in dance or shamisen to a council of dance/shamisen teacher, Okiya owner, senior Geisha, head of the Geisha association and a member of the Kenban. The Okiya spent around 30 yen for an Erikae, while the Geisha had to take a loan of 150-200 yen. If her parents were to borrow money during her time before becoming independent, it was added to her loan. If parents continued to ask for money and the Geisha's debt became too large, they often became prostitutes in order to pay off their debts. Around 2 years after becoming Geisha, they became "Goshugi tori" ご祝儀取り - they receive some of the money from the Gyokudai, but tips were entirely for them to keep. The next level was called "share" 分け, when 40% of all earnings were her own. When becoming independent from their Okiya, they paid fees for food and being registered at the place. Most Geisha also had a patron after becoming independent, which also lead to most of them retiring before the age of 30. @gardengeisha yes, this is about Kamisuwa Onsen located in Suwa-gun in Nagano prefecture!
