His younger brother took over the family business, and when he graduated from Shimotani Kanda Neribei High School in 1890, he painted on a fan, a fan, and a handkerchief from early morning to late night to help his difficult household. .. At the age of 13 in 1883, he studied painting with Nabeta Gyokuei. The following year, he stopped his painting training due to an eye disease and tried to earn money with koto and yueqin, but after about a year the illness healed and he returned to studying painting.
In 1885, at the age of 15, he was taught painting by the Nanga painter Ishii Teiko, but he stopped doing this because his father died in the same year. In order to support his family, Hanko was drawing a sketch of crafts at the Japanese craft export company “Standing Industry and Trading Company”.
