After 48 years of immortalising Hollywood legends, one of the world’s last film painters is now partially blind but vows to continue ‘until I can no longer see’.

Do you still have active Film Poster Painters in your region?
你們還會看得到這些電影海報嗎?

@YK1001 that was a beautiful story. ;-(
“Often when people pass by, they look at me and don’t believe I painted these. It makes me feel sad,” Yan said. “But when I see children look up at the theatre and get excited, I’m reminded of myself as a child and I smile.”
i feel like i need to go to the chin men theater before it's gone.

Yes, @SuzanneN. I also feel a need to visit the Cinema.
It is common for unsung heros - people just don't know who did all the amazing things.
I wish his student do learn well, and the Cinema will keep the tradition to use hand paint posters.
