Biography

Omoda was born in Saitama Prefecture. He went to Tokyo to study painting under Matsumoto Fuko at age 17. In 1913, with the patronage of Hara Sankei, he took up temporary residence near Nanzen-ji Temple in Kyoto with Hayami Gyoshu and Ushida Keison. The next year he organized the Sekiyo-kai with Imamura Shiko and adopted the painting name Seiju. After being rejected for the 6th annual Inten in 1919, he moved to Sayama in Saitama Prefecture, where he sketched and painted with renewed energy. The next year he went to stay with a friend in the town of Matsue in Izumo (Shimane Prefecture). In 1921, his “Port of Ezumi in Izumo,” a highly detailed painting executed with Western-style painting techniques, was accepted for the 8th Inten, and Omoda was elected a member of the group. In 1929 he became a professor at the newly opened Imperial Art School (today’s Musashino Art University). His style became more decorative, and his “Insect and Fish Scroll,” shown at the 18th Inten in 1931, showed this new tendency. He died in Zushi, Kanagawa Prefecture, where he had gone to recuperate from tuberculosis.
