Munakata Shiko: Born on September 5, 1903, as the third son of his father, Munakata Kokichi, and mother, Munakata Sada, whose families had been blacksmiths for generations in Aomori City.
In April of the same year, he entered Nagashima Elementary School, and from the third grade he became interested in kite painting, drawing for his classmates.
When I was in sixth grade, I was running with my friends to see an airplane that had made an emergency landing in a rice field, when I tripped over a stream and found a white flower (a water plant called omodaka) nearby. I was deeply moved by its beauty.
From the time I graduated from elementary school, I helped out at my parents' house with my brother, but when I was 17, I was hired as a waiter in the lawyer's waiting room at the court. On my days off, or early in the morning, I would go to Gapo Park to sketch and study art.
It was around that time that I was given a replica of Van Gogh's Sunflowers by Professor Tadaaki Ono and was deeply impressed.
He also formed a group of fellow artists, held exhibitions, and received high praise from Takeuchi Shunkichi (former governor of Aomori), who later became editor-in-chief of the To-o Nippo newspaper, which further strengthened his resolve to become an artist.
