A New Year’s Eve Parade

Well, Shou isn’t so alone this year. He has his housemate/employer, Ahka to enjoy the festivities with him along with the wild procession of Yokai! I know Hyakki Yagyo happens during the summers, but I think Yokai would find any excuse to party! Wow! I finished on time! With hours to spare. I never thought I could paint such a spectacle in my life! Getting lost in the process is rather exhilirating! I may have left some mistakes here and there though XD Well, Happy New Year everyone! May we strive to improve in our own ways and pace :)

Yokai Inktober #15: Tsunohanzo

It’s yeat another Tsukomogami. What could this classy lady be? She’s a shallow bowl for hand and face washing. Some tales say she once belonged to a female poet. The poet was accused of plagiarism, but noticing the tampered text had fresh ink. It was dipped in a washing bowl and the copied verses came off. Leaving just the original text. Other tales are far more light hearted. If you don’t clean you face and hands properly your washing bowl will walk away from you with a snooty, “Harumph!”
