Christmas tree up and decorated. First time since moving to Japan over a decade ago but now that we have a kid in the house we gotta keep that Christmas spirit and excitement alive!

In #JapaneseFolklore there is a #yokai known as tenome, which means 'eyes on hands.' It takes the form of an old man whose face has no eyes but who has an eye on each of his palms. In the dark of night they wander through graveyards and fields searching for victims.

A temple gate that predates Edo itself. Kotokuji was built when Kyoto was still the capital city. Tokyo, or what was soon to become Edo, was but a mere fishing village still.

Make art that you think is fuckin sick as hell. Make the shit you never thought you could that you always wanted to see. Beat your insecurity to death and fight to become your own favorite artist.
