Blue Forest Spirit

Description

*Full View Recommended*

From Princess Mononoke, my favorite anime ever. If you haven't seen it, I highly recommend that you do.

My dad lovingly calls this painting, "The Blue Devil Deer" in his Boston accent, adorable.

When I was younger and saw the movie and then didn't see it for a while (before I got it on DVD) I somehow got it in my head that the Forest Spirit had been blue (perhaps because of its 'Nightwalker' form). Years later I've decided to paint it as I saw it in my head.

The original concept belongs to the brilliant Hayao Miyazaki.

This is truly beautiful. Mononoke is also my favorite anime, and your depiction of the Forest Spirit is perfect. I love your use of blue in place of the red, it's fitting, and calming to the eye.
