北野恒富 Kitano Tsunetomi (1880〜1947)

Painter and print artist. Tsunetomi ended his life well known as a painter in the 'Nihonga' style, but his original training was in the business of woodblock printing. Born in Kanazawa, he went to Osaka in 1892 and was apprenticed to Nishida Suketaro, who was a preparer of 'hanshita-e', the final drawings used when cutting the blocks for woodblock prints. He also studied 'Nanga'-style painting, sculpture and woodblock carving under various teachers before joining the carving section of the 'Hokkoku shinpo' newspaper in 1897, where he was able to study newspaper illustrations; but he soon returned to Osaka to study painting under Inano Toshitsune, a minor artist who was in a line from the 'Ukiyo-e' school. From him he adopted the 'Tsune' element in his art name, and absorbed a style of painting beautiful women which was a transition between 'Ukiyo-e' and 'Nihonga'. Inano made him work as a woodblock cutter. He published the first of his illustrations for serialised novels in an Osaka journal. While earning his living in this way, he continued to paint and first exhibited in the government-sponsored Bunten show in 1910. In 1912 he helped set up the Taisho Art Society devoted to the encouragement of child artists and in 1915 the Osaka Art Society, at which he became a regular exhibitor. In 1917 he was elected to the Japan Art Institute, and thereafter remained a regular exhibitor at official exhibitions. In 1934 he was invited to contribute wall-paintings to the Shotoku Memorial Painting Hall in the Meiji Shrine, Tokyo.

Tsunetomi's subject-matter was usually beautiful women from the world of entertainment and fashion in the Osaka area, and his work is important as a record of that way of life. Many of his paintings are rescued from the common sentimentality of the period by a gritty edginess which is not unlike the early prints of Ito Shinsui (q.v.). He designed few sheet-prints, and all of them seem to have been adapted from earlier paintings. His best-known print is 'Sagimusume' (Heron Maiden), published in 1925. Tsunetomi was an important figure in Osaka art circles, teaching many pupils, including the painter and print designer Shima Seien (1892-1970).

Our Go-To Pull-Ups for Potty Training
Size: 2T-3T, Unit Count: 124
We’ve tried a few different brands during potty training, and we always come back to Pull-Ups. They fit my daughter really well, are easy for her to pull up and down on her own, and hold up great overnight without leaking. The sides tear easily for quick changes, which is super helpful when you’re out and about. The designs are also cute and helped make potty training a little more exciting for my toddler. Definitely a staple in our house during this stage!

Luvs pulls up are the best
Size: 5T-6T, Unit Count: 48
I love this brand. It’s very secure, and the adjustable band makes it easy to tighten without taking off my child’s pants. It doesn’t leave an odor, the texture is smooth, and my child is always comfortable. The price matches the quality, and there’s no leakage or spillover. Overall, it’s very durable. Make sure to have it correctly fastened because the Velcro can leave scratches on child skin.

Fits true to size and easy to pull up and down by my toddler. Very absorbent - perhaps a little too absorbent as it's taking my daughter forever to be potty trained and she's content in her soiled training pants... Great quality overall.

They prevent leaks, and fit great!
We have always used Huggies diapers for our babies and young toddlers because they were the only ones that never leaked or caused a rash. My second daughter was fully potty trained at 2.5 years old and never needed pull-ups. However, our third daughter, who also trained at 2.5 years old, digressed with her nighttime potty training due to instability - we moved twice within the first 6 weeks after she potty trained. So we had to get pull-ups for her to wear at night. Obviously since we loved Huggies diapers, we tried Huggies Pull-Ups, and again, they did not disappoint! They never leak, even on nights when she doesn't get up to go at all, and has lots of pee, and they have never caused a rash either, no matter how full. She's been using them for 1.5 years, at night, and we have never had any issues. They are dependable: decently comfortable to the child, do not cause rashes, fit properly with the ability to adjust at the thigh (if needed), and they prevent leaks! I highly recommend them!
