doubutsu

completed October 2007
created with Copic Markers, Photoshop 7

Hamachi with a paper lantern ghost and some common asian animals. This was drawn for the Chapter 6 cover of Yokaiden.

Not going to explain the significance of the animals, because that would be a spoiler! Read my book when it comes out (in a year). If you know Japanese myths well, however, you'll probably be able to guess.

"doubutsu" means "animal." Yes, coming up with names for pictures is hard.
