◉“Tanuki Blade Boasting” ◉
(The title is just something the artist casually came up with, so feel free to call it whatever you like.)

◉ About the Work
A three-eyed tanuki proudly strutting around while leading a little one, showing off its sword. Looks like it’s having a great time.

I’m very satisfied with my experiments using classical materials, so I created this piece with my handmade painting medium and commercially available oil paints.
