“Sasuke Inari“ - Piece for Giant Robot’s “Deep Forest“ show. Got inspired by Sasuke Inari shrine located in Kamakura, Japan. My first idea was to draw the famous Fushimi Inari shrine in Kyoto but while browsing Pintrest I happened to ran into Sasuke Inari shrine and fell in love ! ( Also it’s close to my grandma’s house, I wonder why I never heard it before ) Later I sketched & double checked if I have enough green color copic. Then I watched youtube video of walking the shrine, anime GingitsuneandGugure Kokkuri san ( both about fox shrine ), and read manga Sansukumi to get the shrine vibe but at the end didn’t end up drawing shrine. It’s ok, it happens. Especially with me. Always do a lot of research but a lot of times doesn’t end up reflecting in the piece. But its totally ok! I have more knowledge now. Anyway I’m happy with the result overall ! I especially like my tree details. But I did realize that I need more improvement on coloring nature because I never do. My next goal :)
We were walking around Kamakura and found this adorable shack! We were also sort of lured in with hot lemonade which was extremely tasty. We ended up getting coconut coffee, but there are definitely lots of other choices for anyone interested! It’s in the perfect place for a pick me up and to escape the crowds for a bit. Also the staff are super nice and they helped to take our pictures when we were struggling a bit. I highly recommend them, please go check it out! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #Tokyo#Japan #Kamakura#Daibutsu#Autumn#bucketlistjeroen#BigBuddha#modelinjapan#girlpowertravel#kamakurajapan#bambooforest#kamakuracafe #savvytokyo#genic_mag#genic_japan#genic_woman#gltlove#Stayway女子旅 #stayway_japan#genic_cafe#tokyo#kanto#sunriseshack (at 鎌倉,江丿島) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5fwTXnH-KV/?igshid=1ciyym0uskf0f
