I wasn’t sure what category to put this but decided art made the most sense.
For the keychain and purse charm swap I was inspired by @EriChanHime’s kodama theme and couldn’t get the idea of this little painting turned into a purse charm out of my head.
I used turner acrylic gouache on hot press watercolor paper, fixed it with a UV fixative, and attached it to a backing board before attaching it to the mini easel.
Thumbnailing trying to decide on a composition and figure out how to draw kodamas.
He’s been sitting on my bookshelf keeping me company in my studio before it was time to send.
I was sad to see him go and might need to paint another one for myself. Thanks for looking!
